Every day I wake up and it's Sunday Whatever's in my head won't go away The radio is playing all the usual What's a Wonderwall anyway? Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side 'Cause I'm writing to reach you now but I might never reach you Only want to teach you About you But that's not you
.

It's good to know that you are home for Christmas It's good to know that you are doing well It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting It's good to know I'm feeling not so well Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side 'Cause I'm writing to reach you now but I might never reach you Only want to teach you About you But that's not you And you know it's true But that won't do Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday And whatever's in my head should go away But still the radio keeps playing all the usual And what's a Wonderwall anyway? Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you now but I might never reach you Only want to teach you About you But that's not you And you know it's true But that won't do And you know it's you I'm talking to

TRAVIS

so I look for something. . .

. . .and I can't find it
.
but I found this instead. . .

Ta mo chleamhnas deanta o athru areir
S'ni mo na go dtaithnioonn an bhean liom fein

Ach fagfaidh me i mo dhiaidh i'gus imeoidh me liom fein
Ar fud na gcoillte craobhach.

My match it was made here last night
To a girl I neither love nor like
But I'll take my own advice
And leave her behind
And go roaming the wild woods all over.

Shiuil mise thoir agus shiuil mise thiar.
Shiuil mise Corcaigh 'gus sraide Bh'l'ath Cliath
Ach samhail de mo chailin deas ni fhaca mise riamh.
'Si an bhean dubh a dhfhag mo chroi craite.

I walked up and I walked down.
I walked Cork, and Dublin, and Belfast towns,
But no equal to my true love could I find.
She's the wee lass that's left my heart broken.

D'eirigh me ar maidin dha uair roimh an la
'gus fuair me litir o mo mhile ghra
Chuala me an smoilin 's an londubh a ra
Gur ealiagh mo ghra thar saile.

I got up two hours before day
And I got a letter from my true love.
I heard the blackbird and linnet say
That my love had crossed the ocean.

TRADITIONAL

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
.

Got to keep the loonies on the path.
The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
.

And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
.

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.
.

The lunatic is in my head. The lunatic is in my head.
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane. You lock the door

.

And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.
.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
.

And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.
.

I can't think of anything to say except...
"I think it's marvelous!
HaHaHa!"
.

It's not easy having yourself a good time
Greasing up those bets and betters
Watching out they don't four-letter
If I can kiss you both at the same time
Smells-like something I've forgotten
Curled up, died, and now it's rotten
I'm not a gangster tonight
Don't want to be a bad guy
I'm just a loner, baby
And now you're gotten in my way
I can't decide
Whether I should live or die
Oh, I'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

It's a bitch convincing people to like you
If I stop now call me a quitter
If lies were cats I'd be a litter
Pleasing everyone isn't like you
Dancing jigs until I'm crippled
Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled
I've got to hand it to you
You've played by all the same rules
It takes the truth to fool me
And now you've made me angry
I can't decide
Whether I should live or die
Oh, I'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

Oh I could throw myself in the lake
Or feed myself poisoned birthday cake
I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone
Oh I could be buried alive
But then I might crawl out with a knife
And kill myself while I'm sleeping
That's why. . .

. . .We're going for a ride

I took my chances
I knew that you were trouble
But you're like a magnet
When you get closer, you pull me on
You said, we'll never go wrong
A promise you can't keep
Today, my memory's so long
Long gone (could it be that)

I'm better off, on my own
Then you kick and you scream and you break me
I'm thinkin' it's time that I'm gone
Then you push and you pull and you string me along
You play these waiting games
But I'm finally tryin' to stake my claim with you
I'm so tired of holdin' on
When you string me along

I might get stuck in
This tangled web you're weavin'
I'm like your puppet
But you're strangling' my breathin'
You said be patient with me
To be honest, I can't hang
Today these chains don't fit me and
I'm not gunna play in your game (could it be that)

I'm better off, on my own
But you kick and you scream, and you break me
I'm thinkin' it's time that I'm gone
But you push and you pull and you string me along
You keep on playing games
But I'm finally tryin' to break away from you
I'm so tired of holdin' on
When you string me along

A broken heart, a broken promise
That's all you leave behind for me
Lookin' up to you I lost focus
Now I'll bring it back to where it used to be
You make it so hard to do it
And I know you don't want me to leave,
Oh-no-no

Nooo.. so you kick and scream and you push and you
Pull, and you string me along
