    A MJ favourite of mine:



    "They Don't Care About Us"

    Skin head, dead head
    Everybody gone bad
    Situation, aggravation
    Everybody allegation
    In the suite, on the news
    Everybody dog food
    Bang bang, shot dead
    Everybody's gone mad

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    Beat me, hate me
    You can never break me
    Will me, thrill me
    You can never kill me
    Jew me, sue me
    Everybody do me
    Kick me, kike me
    Don't you black or white me

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    Tell me what has become of my life
    I have a wife and two children who love me
    I am the victim of police brutality, now
    I'm tired of being the victim of hate
    You're ripping me off my pride
    Oh, for God's sake
    I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
    Set me free

    Skin head, dead head
    Everybody gone bad
    Trepidation, speculation
    Everybody allegation
    In the suite, on the news
    Everybody dog food
    Black man, blackmail
    Throw your brother in jail

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    Tell me what has become of my rights
    Am I invisible because you ignore me?
    Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
    I'm tired of being the victim of shame
    They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
    I can't believe this is the land from which I came
    You know I really do hate to say it
    The government don't wanna see
    But if Roosevelt was living
    He wouldn't let this be, no, no

    Skin head, dead head
    Everybody gone bad
    Situation, speculation
    Everybody litigation
    Beat me, bash me
    You can never trash me
    Hit me, kick me
    You can never get me

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    Some things in life they just don't wanna see
    But if Martin Luther was living
    He wouldn't let this be, no, no

    Skin head, dead head
    Everybody gone bad
    Situation, segregation
    Everybody allegation
    In the suite, on the news
    Everybody dog food
    Kick me, kike me
    Don't you wrong or right me

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about
    All I wanna say is that
    they don't really care about
    All I wanna say is that
    They don't really care about us

    Kygo - Stole the show


    "Stole The Show"
    (feat. Parson James)

    Darling, darling, oh, turn the lights back on now
    Watching, watching, as the credits all roll down
    Crying, crying, you know we're playing to a full house, house

    No heroes, villains, one to blame
    While wilted roses filled the stage
    And the thrill, the thrill is gone
    Our debut was a masterpiece
    But in the end for you and me
    Oh, the show, it can't go on

    We used to have it all, but now's our curtain call
    So hold for the applause, oh
    And wave out to the crowd, and take our final bow
    Oh, it's our time to go, but at least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show

    Least we stole the show

    Darling, darling, you know that we are sold out
    This is fading, but the band plays on now
    We're crying, crying, so let the velvet roll down, down

    No heroes, villains, one to blame
    While wilted roses fill the stage
    And the thrill, the thrill is gone
    Our debut was a masterpiece
    Our lines we read so perfectly
    But the show, it can't go on

    We used to have it all, but now's our curtain call
    So hold for the applause, oh
    And wave out to the crowd, and take our final bow
    Oh, it's our time to go, but at least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Stole the show
    Least we stole the show
    Stole the show
    Least we stole the show

    Warnin: Slightly foul language

    gnash - i hate u, i love u (ft. olivia o'brien)


    GNASH LYRICS
    "I Hate U I Love U"
    (feat. Olivia O'Brien)

    [Verse 1 - Olivia O'Brien:]
    Feeling used
    But I'm
    Still missing you
    And I can't
    See the end of this
    Just wanna feel your kiss
    Against my lips
    And now all this time
    Is passing by
    But I still can't seem to tell you why
    It hurts me every time I see you
    Realize how much I need you

    [Chorus - Olivia O'Brien:]
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    [Verse 2 - Gnash:]
    I miss you when I can't sleep
    Or right after coffee
    Or right when I can't eat
    I miss you in my front seat
    Still got sand in my sweaters
    From nights we don't remember
    Do you miss me like I miss you?
    Fucked around and got attached to you
    Friends can break your heart too,
    And I'm always tired but never of you
    If I pulled a you on you, you wouldn't like that ****
    I put this reel out, but you wouldn't bite that ****
    I type a text but then I never mind that ****
    I got these feelings but you never mind that ****
    Oh oh, keep it on the low
    You're still in love with me but your friends don't know
    If you wanted me you would just say so
    And if I were you, I would never let me go

    [Radio version's additional chorus - Olivia O'Brien:]
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    [Verse 3 - Gnash:]
    I don't mean no harm
    I just miss you on my arm
    Wedding bells were just alarms
    Caution tape around my heart
    You ever wonder what we could have been?
    You said you wouldn't and you fucking did
    Lie to me, lie with me, get your fucking fix
    Now all my drinks and all my feelings are all fucking mixed
    Always missing people that I shouldn't be missing
    Sometimes you gotta burn some bridges just to create some distance
    I know that I control my thoughts and I should stop reminiscing
    But I learned from my dad that it's good to have feelings
    When love and trust are gone
    I guess this is moving on
    Everyone I do right does me wrong
    So every lonely night I sing this song

    [Chorus - Olivia O'Brien and Gnash:]
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    [Bridge - Olivia O' Brien and Gnash:]
    All alone I watch you watch her
    Like she's the only girl you've ever seen
    You don't care you never did
    You don't give a damn about me
    Yeah all alone I watch you watch her
    She is the only thing you ever see
    How is it you never notice
    That you are slowly killing me

    [Chorus - Olivia O'Brien:]
    I hate you, I love you,
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
    I hate you, I love you
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    This is odd, I had posted If I could turn back time by Cher, and it doesn't show up. I like the simple lyrics. It has been a song I turn to now and then over the years, in youtube and earlier CD. Can't believe she turned 70 this year.



    If I could turn back time, If I could find a way
    I'd take back those words that'll hurt you and you'd stay, I don't know why I did the things I did
    I don't know why I said the things I said, Love's like a knife it can cut deep inside
    Words are like weapons, they wound sometimes

    I didn't really mean to hurt you, I didn't want to see you go
    I know I made you cry, but baby

    If I could turn back time, If I could find a way, I'd take back those words that'd hurt you,
    And you'd stay. If I could reach the stars, I'd give 'em all to you
    Then you'd love me, love me, like you used to do, If I could turn back time
