David Bowie - Lazarus - R.I.P (1947-2016)



DAVID BOWIE
"Lazarus" (2016 EMI America)


LYRICS

{​​​​Intro}​​​​

[Verse 1]
Look up here, I'm in heaven
I've got scars that can't be seen
I've got drama, can't be stolen
Everybody knows me now

[Verse 2]
Look up here, man, I'm in danger
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm so high, it makes my brain whirl
Dropped my cell phone down below
Ain't that just like me?

[Bridge]
By the time I got to New York
I was living like a king
Then I used up all my money
I was looking for your ass

[Verse 3]
This way or no way
You know I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Now, ain't that just like me?

[Outro]
Oh, I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Oh, I'll be free
Ain't that just like me?

Steve Winwood - Higher Love (1986) VIDEO


STEVE WINWOOD
"Higher Love" (1986 Island)


LYRICS

Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Worlds are turning and we're just hanging on
Facing our fear and standing out there alone
A yearning, and it's real to me
There must be someone who's feeling for me
Things look so bad everywhere
In this whole world, what is fair?
We walk blind and we try to see
Falling behind in what could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring be a higher love
I could rise above on a higher love

I will wait for it
I'm not too late for it
Until then, I'll sing my song
To cheer the night along
Bring it... Oh bring it...

I could light the night up with my soul on fire
I could make the sun shine from pure desire
Let me feel that love come over me
Let me feel how strong it could be

Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Bring me a higher love
Where's that higher love I keep thinking of?

OLIVER CHEATHAM
"Get Down Saturday Night" (1983 MCA)



LYRICS:

Get down, it's Saturday night
Saturday night, Saturday night
Get down, it's Saturday night
Saturday night, Saturday night

Saturday morning, Friday's enemy
Housework is calling, but where to begin
Kids are out of school, trying to find a friend
Everybody's busy, can't wait for the night to begin

You work all week long,
You work your fingers to the bone
Fridays' enemy, I can't wait for Saturday to begin

Gonna have myself some fun, fun, fun, fun
(Get down it's Saturday night, gonna be alright)
Make love until the morning come
Make love until the morning come

I love to party, everybody does
You can't wait for the weekend no, no
See what you get into
But you've got to get down, down, down, down

Even if you stay at home
Make love and listen to the music
You've got to let yourself go, go, go, go, go, girl

You work all week long
You work your fingers to the bone
Fridays' enemy, yeah, I can't wait for Saturday to begin

Gonna have myself some fun, fun, fun, fun
(Get down it's Saturday night, gonna be alright)
Make love until the morning come
Make love until the morning come

In New York, in Detroit
Yeah, yeah
In New York, in Detroit
Even in LA

I can't wait for Saturday to begin
I can't wait for Saturday to begin
I can't wait for Saturday to begin
I can't wait for Saturday to begin

You work all week long
You work your fingers to the bone
Fridays' enemy, I can't wait for Saturday to begin

Gonna have myself some fun, fun, fun, fun
(Get down it's Saturday night, gonna be alright)
Make love until the morning come
Make love until the morning come

Some like the party, some like the dance
Some like to make romance
Some like to smoke, some like to joke

Some like to drink, some like to think
Some is on the blink
Me, my baby and me, yeah

You work all week long
You work the fingers to the bone
Fridays' enemy, I can't wait for Saturday to begin

Get down, get down, get down and spend the night
