Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Upside Down .. Scott Matthew


I walk a tight rope
And live with the high hope
That somehow we still feel the same
Through this catastrophe
It's quietly telling me "welcome"
There's that word again

For I don't care if the world's upside down
If you're lost or you're found
I know my feet will stay far from the ground
If you'd just stick around

I know the shots you call gentle
'cause I could fall and break
You'll hear what they say
I read between the lines
Cuts like a hate crime
And tell me today's not the day

For I don't care if the world's upside down
If you're lost or you're found
I know my feet will stay far from the ground
If you'd just stick around

You hit a high note
It comes like a cyclone
And tell me today's not the day

I don't care if the world's upside down
If you're lost or i'm found
I know my feet will stay far from the ground
If you'd just stick around
With me


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- If You Fall .. Azure Ray


Let's talk and we'll fill the air with imagery that lasts forever
So this is love that's a lovely thought
You have to care for it to keep it together
If you fall will you get up
You're stuck in a dream will you wake up
And if you fell in love will you hold on to it
And if it's cold will you stay warm
You drift too far will you swim towards the shore
And if you fell in love will you hold on to it
Lets just sing and we'll fill the air with melodies that blend together
You speak so sweet with words so delicate
A glass I hope will never shatter
If you fall will you get up
You're stuck in a dream will you wake up
And if you fell in love will you hold on to it
And if it's cold will you stay warm
You drift too far will you swim towards the shore
And if you fell in love will you hold on to it


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Wizard's Sleeve .. Yo La Tengo

Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Winter's Love .. Animal Collective


I love this light in winter time,
The frost cakes in the carpet
In winter time we'll have our ways
Tombstones the mean belong in
No falls snowfalls that ruin my day
It's masked up from the street wire
And winter's glow where could she be
She's warm underneath my pocket
Just a calm and modern day
In early, early morning
Rush to her, and rush to him,
Am I a better person?
Even in the whole take on
The loss is better said
I pulled the boy out of above
She made that boy a man


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Surgery .. Scott Matthew


Transplant my heart
Into yours
And we'll go through helen highwater
Transplant my heart
Gives me the kicks
But we're pumping
Like machinery

All this change
Clean incision to the brain
Baby, cut me open, re-arrange
Healing hands have me
Medicated, justilated
Cut me open
Still this pain

It's life
It's life
Saving surgery

It's life
It's life
It's life
It's life
Saving surgery


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Beautiful .. Sook-Yin Lee


It's a beautiful day today
Woke up this morning with sunshine on my face
And since the storm clouds have lifted
I keep drifting back to you
Yeh, you

And you alone have the power to redeem me
I was lost
And I'm still lost
But I can't deny the feeling..
It'll be ok
My friend
My brother 'til the end
It'll be ok

It's a beautiful day today.. ahhh..
You always say you shouldn't be here.. ahhh..
Your brush with death was far too near, dear
And it left you looking pretty in an ugly sort of way
And all that can go wrong
Never pinned you to the ground
You cheated death, broke every bone
Now your body's on the mend
And I can't wait to see you again

It's a beautiful day today.. ahhh..
There's only two of us left standing.. ahhh..
And when the others turned and went away
Well I can count on you to stay
Cause you
And you alone have the power to redeem me
I was lost
AND I'M STILL LOST!
But I can't deny the feeling..
It'll be ok
My friend
My brother 'til the end
It'll be ok
My friend
My brother 'til the end
It'll be ok
My friend
My brother 'til the end

Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- It's Not Safe .. Gentleman Reg


Outside of tiny windows
Impenetrable land made of cloud
With textures, rolling hills, white meadows
Movements that unsettle
And remind one where we are

Movements that unsettle
And remind one where we are
Intentionally out of control
Seemingly graceful
Acting like birds, acting like birds

It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore
It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore

How close we pass water
How quickly the ground comes up
Arriving in California on a cloudy day
Is not what I expected

It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore
It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore

It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore
It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore

It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore
It's not safe to be naked,
Young or creative anymore

Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore

Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Language .. Scott Matthew


Memory's a secret handshake
Shakes you with
It speaks my language
It ceases, I cease to believe
You're gonna leave

And acting out of a fight
When you're not around
With ease, I cease to exist
I slip through the leaves
We once had to wish

Oh we wished for
Heaven
It now only seems
Like torture

Oh this ghost will win my host
It's lingering
- in me
And around my neck
It taps on my head
While i'm asleep

Memory's a secret handshake
Shakes you with
Speaks my language
Cease, I cease to believe
You're gonne leave


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Soda Shop .. Jay Brannan


The sidewalk is rushing at my head again
I'm lying on the street in the raining wind
From doing forward rolls down Avenue A
With my guitar on my back don't let it end this way

Somehow I dialed myself
I didn't know I could get service in hell
How quickly can you get here
Don't know where I am dear
Finally the world that truly seems to be revolving around me

Chorus:
Shooby dooby doo op I overdid it at the sodashop
Thanks for being my girl at the I don't know when to stop sock hop

You held my head over the edge of the bed
I remember it now
But at the time I thought I was dead
You put a pan there
And held back my hair
How can I repay you for saving me?
And my hardwood floor

Chorus:
Shooby dooby doo op I overdid it at the sodashop
Thanks for being my girl at the I don't know when to stop sock hop

And when the world stops spinning round
I pick the pan above the ground
I read my upheaves
They're much like tea leaves
They said its over so get sober or you'll die
Again......

Chorus:
Shooby dooby doo op I overdid it at the sodashop
Thanks for being my girl at the I don't know when to stop sock hop


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby? .. Anita O'Day


Is you is or is you ain't my baby
The way you're acting lately makes me doubt
You is still my baby, baby
Oh it has the flame in your heart, just gone out

A fellow is a creature
That has always been strange
When you think you're sure of one
He's gone and made a change

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Maybe baby found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby too


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Kolla Kolla .. The Ark


Om man född bland proletärer (Ola)
och gör narkotikaaffärer
och man är redan en göng straffad
sö är det lätt att man blir haffad
till och frön
Jag vill känna mig fri, fri, fri (Martin)
Det är min filosofi, fi, fi
Kolla, kolla-a-a
jag är en reko kille
Även om jag kanske sitter pö köken idag (Sylvester)
för ni hölla med om att
det var inte det jag ville
Nä, jag tar ett jobb pö första bästa ställe (Ola)
Läderfötölj och egen telefon
När jag kommer härifrön (Ola & Sylvester)
Tänkte jag mitt dumma fön
och trodde jag var stark
men jag hamna i en park
och levde pö att sälja... (Jepson)
Haddelätten dä dä (Leari)
a-umpampa
för man inte göra, é inte bra
haddelätten dä dä
Det va det jag sa
det var inte bra
a-umpampa
Vilken idioti, ti, ti (Sylvester)
att sälja av ett parti, ti, ti
Kolla, kolla-a-a
jag har mej själv att skylla
Även om jag inte gillar lokalen sö bra (Martin)
för jag hölla med om att
den har en funktion att fylla
Föngvörden statuerar ett exempel (Ola)
knäcker en kille
sätter stämpel pö´n
Sö när jag kommer härifrön
värker det i hjärtevrön
sticker som en dolk
sö man träffar lite folk
och meckar sig en redig... (Jepson)
Haddelätten dä dä... (Leari)
Men är man hederlig istället (Jepson)
och jobbar pö i tjyvsamhället
Och bara är tillräckligt gniden
Sö blir man miljonär med tiden i den mön...
Man överhuvudtaget kommer härifrön (Ola)
Bara ta ett sparbankslön
flytta till Skanör
slö sig fram som fabrikör
och leva tills man... (Jepson)
Okej, okej, kej, kej (Sylvester)
Ta ö titta pö mej, mej, mej
Kolla, kolla-a-a
jag är redan märkt för livet
Även om jag kanske kommer i frihet en dag (Ola)
för ni hölla med om att
det är inte överdrivet
lätt att va flitig, arbetsam och präktig
lika bra jag kör direkt i ön
Sö när jag kommer härifrön
i en stulen Amazon
tar jag första dan
till att dundra in till stan
och släppa loss av bara...
Haddelätten dä dä... (Alla)


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Boys of Melody .. The Hidden Cameras


Far out at sea
Bathed in breeze
Now only ghosts
We haunt living dreams

Out on the coast
The coast is the most
That we'll ever see

Out on the coast
We'll sit and boast
That "it's all we need"

Wade through the sand
And find the romance
That we know we need

Boys of Melody
And they'll follow me
And I'll sing harmony

And with our song
Marching along
Few feign a frown
Or forget their towns

We proceed in stained bed sheets
And hang on our sleeves
That "we're happy"

Sung with a chorus of tones
Backed by drums and drones
We march towards the sea

As we reach the edge
I sing a new lament
"the boys are here with me"

Boys of melody
And they'll follow me
And I'll sing harmony

And "it's all we need"
"The boys are here with me"
"We're happy"


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- Little Bird .. Scott Matthew


Little bird on the high wire
Wish you would content to offend
Peck a kiss upon my shoulder
Leave a mark, and make me better

If you take half your most
I swear to you
I will cut my past
Habits, and the end
I'd never start

And I
Am absolutely shocked
How are you

Happy songs, they've work for some
If i'm not wrong, this is my first one
Now that I have stopped my crying
Peck a kiss upon this smile

I am absolutely true
I love you
I love you


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- This Piece of Poetry Is Meant to Do Harm .. The Ark


You've been watching over me
Saying you're keeping me company
I should be grateful, I suppose
And compare you to a summer's rose

You've been talking sweet to me
About peace and loving harmony
But I know what you say about me
So now I tell you cause I gotta break free

That I can't give you no false affection
I can do without your phony charm
This train ain't moving in your direction
This piece of poetry is meant to do harm

Please don't give me no warm reception
What you call peace to me is a call to arms
Some are singing to raise affection
But this piece poetry is meant to do harm

So with what shall I compare thee?
Summer's clay or winter's sleet?
You made a non-believer out of me,
Now you ask for my sympathy?

No, take your words and take your vows
Take your flake-fuelled buddhist bows
Let the cool winds roughly shake
Out all darling buds of fake

I can't give you no false affection
I can do without your phony charm
This train ain't moving in your direction
This piece of poetry is meant to do harm

And don't you give me no warm reception
What you call peace to me is a call to arms
I'm not singing to raise affection
This piece of poetry is meant to do harm


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- This House .. Jasper James


Wanted to be near you
through any situation
The horrors and the pleasures
you know I'd be there
If you have one doubt
I'd harrow through
these treasures, live only
for your leisure… you know
I'd always be there.
Won't you come into this house

Believe in all you think and
what is real, wont you see
all the fillowy pillowy stuff
that you thought you wanted
was a dream,
Contact every spacial being
tell 'em we need some space down here
Won't you come into this house...


Shortbus soundtrack lyrics -- In the End (Long Film Version) .. Scott Matthew


We all bear the scars
Yeah, we all feign a laugh
We all cry in the dark
Get cut off before we start

And as your first act begins
You realise they're all waiting
For a fall, for a flaw, for the end

And there's a past stained with tears
Could you talk to quiet my fears
Could you pull me aside
Just to acknowledge that i've tried

As your last breath begins
Contently take it in
Cause we all get it in
The end

And as your last breath begins
You find your demon's your best friend
And we all get it in
The end
