Something’s got to give

You know that time never sleeps
Keep one eye open like
I’ve got my head full of dreams
All shattered and broken like

Never chose love, it chose me
But I’m still here making stones bleed
So I’ll go on swimming upstream
Till I come tumbling down

Oh, when the working don’t pay
Oh, when you’re living on faith
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give
Oh, when you’re giving your all
Oh, when it’s coming up short
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give

Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father

Hey, I’ve been caught in the red
Needing the breath of life
But I came back from the dead
Diamond like, golden like

Never chose love, it chose me
But I keep burning endlessly, so
Go tell them angels I’m blessed (Go, go tell ’em)
There ain’t no taking me down

Oh, when the working don’t pay
Oh, when you’re living on faith
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give
Oh, when you’re giving your all
Oh, when it’s coming up short
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give

Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father

Give a little more
Woah, yes (woah, yes)
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta

Say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
I said love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
I said love it when a plan comes together hey

Say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
Hey I love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
Say I love it when a plan comes together
Hey

Lyrics

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we’ll see
No, I won’t be afraid
Oh, I won’t be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me

So darlin’, darlin’
Stand by me, oh, stand by me
Oh, stand, stand by me
Stand by me

Stand by me, oh, stand by me

Darlin’, darlin’
Stand by me, oh, stand by me
Oh, stand now, stand by me
Stand by me
Whenever you’re in trouble, won’t you stand by me?
Oh, stand by me
Won’t you stand now?
Oh, stand, stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me

 

They call it madness

McDonald’s UK

Madness, madness, they call it madness
Madness, madness, they call it madness
It is plain to see, that is what they mean to me
Madness, madness I call it gladness

I lost my shoes last night, I don’t know where I put my keys
I was tired and fell asleep beneath an oak tree
I bet my mother’s proud of me from each scar
Upon my knuckle and each graze upon my knee, and all I know
Is I got a cab and then threw up on his car seat
He kicked me out and then I walked in the rain
I tell myself in every way, “I won’t be doing this again”
And tomorrow’s a brand new day
Someone told me, “always say what’s on your mind”
And I am only being honest with you, I
I get lonely and make mistakes from time to time
So no man call ya, bibia be ye ye
Bibia be ye ye, ye ye ye ye
Bibia be ye ye
