Who is this man
That follows me
This blue eyed boy
Who wants to be
This worthy cause
Of human kind
This pawn set up by time
Like a bright light on the horizon
Shining so bright, he'll get you flying
He'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane
But then he'll remove all of your pain
Like a bright light on the horizon
Shining so bright, he'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, he'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, flying, flying
This open book
Yet to be read
This second look
This leap ahead
The hope I held inside
With you, was kept alive
Like a bright light on the horizon
Shining so bright, he'll get you flying
He'll drive you away, he'll drive you insane
But then he'll remove all of your pain
Like a bright light on the horizon
Shining so bright, He'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, He'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, flying, flying
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
We're here to stay
Like a bright light on the horizon
Shining so bright, he'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, he'll get you flying
He'll get you flying, flying, flying
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Pay no attention
To the man behind the curtain
He's a brainless, heartless, coward
With no power
That's just another trick of his
He ain't no wiz so don't feed his fire
Jump in my balloon
I'll take you higher
Take you somewhere over the rainbow
Get your ticket to the show
Heels clicking, here we go
Cause you already know
[Chorus:]
There's no place like (home)
There's no place like (home)
There's no place like (home)
There's no place like
(We're straight out of Oz, there's no place like)
There's no place like home
[Verse 1:]
Is where the heart is
Some brainiacs will tell you home is where your house and car is
But if you're brave enough to love the ones you hate the hardest
You might find (home)
You might find (home)
Cause sometimes
Home is where your deepest scar is
Society will try to cast you where they think your part is
Give awards and accolades to what they think a star is
But go find your (home)
Go find your (home)
[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Pay no attention
To the lies they try to feed ya
It's a wicked, twisted fable
He's not stable
It's just another box of tricks
Some crock of shit
And good dreams go
Wasted
Hungry for the fame
Don't let them taste it
He's been stealin' dreams
9 to 5, Monday to Friday
Imma tell the story my way
Cause the only way home ain't on this yellow brick highway
[Chorus:]
There's no place like (home) (hey)
There's no place like (home) (hey)
There's no place like (home) (oooh)
There's no place like
(We're straight out of Oz, there's no place like)
[Bridge:]
And if you're lost out there
In the night, wishing on stars
Wonderin' who you are
Just know that you're never alone
And there's no place like home
And we gon' fight and we gon' cry
And I'm gon' fight for you until I die
Right there is right where you belong
And there's no place like home
[Pre-Chorus 3:]
Pay no attention
To the man who'll try to change ya
He's a dark, familiar, stranger
But that's a danger
The storm is strong
But it won't be long
And no matter where you roam
There's no place like
Home
Water Guns (feat. Jordin Sparks) by Todrick Hall SOOの目次はこちら→
[Lryics]
[Todrick Hall:]
When I was just a little boy, me and my father
Would go out back and play a little game of cops and robbers
One day he cocked the gun and pointed at my mom and shot her
And I cried and cried with laughter after I realized it was just water
But things have changed now, the world just ain't the same now
We're frightened but we need to be enlightened, use our brain now
People pointing fingers, trying to find someone to blame now
Ashamed how the game of cops and robbers ain't a game now
[Jordin Sparks:]
These ain't water guns
And please save all our sons and daughters
What we fighting for?
Cause these ain't water guns
Water guns, no more
[x2]
[Todrick Hall:]
Look around, tell me how we ever got here
We fightin' hard, but the reasoning is not clear
Stop here, where is the love if it's not here
The solution to not getting shot here is not fear
And we can fly away on a balloon to another land
Or we can make this home, find another plan
Too much blood on these yellow brick streets
And history repeats until we can finally hold our brother's hand
[Jordin Sparks:]
These ain't water guns
And please save all our sons and daughters
What we fighting for?
Cause these ain't water guns
Water guns, no more
[x2]
[Todrick Hall & Jordin Sparks:]
So take my hand in your hand
And let's stand if we can
Pray for all the fallen ones
These ain't (these ain't)
These ain't water guns
[x2]
These ain't water guns
And please save all our sons and daughters
What we fighting for?
Cause these ain't water guns
Water guns, no more
[x4]
[Jordin Sparks:]
Do you hear them?
These ain't water guns no more
[Verse 1]
You got that 'It' thing
No, you're never gonna quit thing
I know you're gonna make it someday
(I know you're gonna make it someday)
You're gonna go far, kid
Go follow your heart, kid
But don't you dare forget where you came
(Don't you dare forget we're right there)
[Pre-Chorus]
Impossible for us to love you harder (right there)
But don't you dare forget your alma mater (right there)
Until you're on our television screen
So go spread your wings
And we'll do big things
[Chorus]
And where this old brick road is gonna lead
I just don't know
When you're gone, be strong
Just promise me wherever you go
Don't forget the little people
Always there to cheer you on
Don't forget that they're your equal
Don't forget, don't forget the little
The little people (don't forget)
The little people (don't forget)
The little people
Don't you dare forget the little people
[Verse 2]
You're right on track now
Never gonna look back now
You've got a lot of just what it takes
(You've got a lot of just what it takes)
I'm feelin' free now
Think I'm gonna do me now
I know this road is full of mistakes
(But don't you dare forget we're right there)
[Pre-Chorus]
Impossible for me to love you harder (right there)
And I'll never forget my alma mater (right there)
'Til you're the talk of all the magazines
We'll be on your team
So go chase your dreams
[Chorus]
And where this old brick road is gonna lead
I just don't know
When you're gone, be strong
Just promise me wherever you go
Don't forget the little people
Always there to cheer you on
Don't forget that they're your equal
Don't forget, don't forget the little
The little people (don't forget)
The little people (don't forget)
The little people
Don't you dare forget the little people
(Oh, oh, oh) all the little people
(Oh, oh, oh) all the little people
(Oh, oh, oh) all the little people
Don't forget, don't forget
No, don't you dare forget the little people
[Todrick Hall & Nicole Scherzinger:] I've been waiting my whole life to say this But I am in Oz Angeles And this woman, she is going to be the one to change my life At least, that's what she tells me I've read that this business is filled with dark times But right now, in this moment, my future's looking pretty bright
Travis is it? You have a really big... big personality haha
[Nicole Scherzinger:]
So glad you came to visit
Your talent is exquisite
Is it just me or is it getting hot in here?
The AC might be broken
Let's crack a window open
Then hold me close so you can whisper in my ear
Tell me all your dreams and fantasies
Pardon me, I have a tendency to talk a lot
Lay it all on me
You little sexy piece of chocolate
Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride
Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow the chance to taste the fame
You want all of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
[Todrick Hall & Nicole Scherzinger:]
Wait don't... wait don't go
A little non-committal
Just meet me in the middle
Don't be afraid our little secret's safe in here
You got potential Trevor
It's Todrick
Whatever
Destiny's calling in, your future is so clear
I can almost see your name in lights
What a sight... my mind is spinning like a carousel
Trevor all I need is a little taste of caramel
[Nicole Scherzinger:]
Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride
Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow the chance to taste the fame
You want all of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
[Todrick Hall:]
Find myself in the strangest predicament
Her intentions could be innocent
But I don't know if I should go through with this
If I do, I risk saying yes
But what if it's a test?
That's a mess
You can rest assured the fate of my success would be less
But the question is if I should tell her no
Would I blow my big break?
Would it be a mistake?
For God's sake, she's gotta know...
She's not my body type
And I know, what's wrong just can't be right
On the one hand you got one life
You should cut yourself some slack
You know once she's had the chocolate
Then she's never going back
Is she talking a big talk or is this how you play the game?
She says I got star potential
She can't even say my name
How many one-hit-wonders sit and wonder why we never knew of them?
You've never touched a boob in your whole life and she's got two of them
This road is full of choices, tough decisions, rough mistakes
Take the highroad or the easy street
The choice is yours to make
[Todrick Hall & Nicole Scherzinger:]
But I don't know
If I'm your body type
I'm so close to all those emerald lights
Won't you stay and lay with me tonight
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi
I know that it would be a shame if you blow the chance to taste the fame
You want all of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy
"Well I don't know if I'm your body type
But just close your eyes, enjoy the ride"
"Won't you sway my waist from side to side?
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi"
"I know that it would be a shame if you blow the chance to taste the fame"
"You want all of Oz to know your name
Make me say, ayy papi, ayy papi, ayy"
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm?
Said it was one of my friend’s songs do you want to drink on?
She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shot gun
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance
With my pretty little Galway Girl
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl
You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
As last orders were called, was when she stood on the stool
After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunes
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
Acapella in the bar using her feet for a beat
Oh I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
And in this packed out room, swear she was singing to me
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance
My pretty little Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
Now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night
I walked her home then she took me inside
Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
I swear I’m going to put you in a song that I write
About a Galway girl and a perfect night
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance
My pretty little Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
