gemfyre | Welcome to The Darkness karaoke night!

hehe, 3 Darkness songs tonight.

Ya know how a while ago I did awards for songs of 2004. I'd like to offer another award.

Best song 2004 (overall, Taylor is just a personal fave) - Are You Gonna Be My Girl? - Jet

It won loads of ARIAS but it really deserved them because it is an ultra funky song. I also got some lesbian overtones to it, but maybe that's because I've been talking to the two Willows too much (what is it with the name Willow and being a lesbian?)

So 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
because you look so fine
and i really wanna make you mine.

I say you look so fine
that I really wanna make you mine.

Oh, 4,5,6 c'mon and get your kicks
now you dont need that money
when you look like that, do ya honey.

Big black boots,
long brown hair,
she's so sweet
with her get back stare.

Well I could see,
you home with me,
but you were with another man, yea!
I know we,
ain't got much to say,
before I let you get away, yea!
I said, are you gonna be my girl?

Well, so 1,2,3, take my hand and come with me
because you look so fine
and i really wanna make you mine.

I say you look so fine
that I really wanna make you mine.

Oh, 4,5,6 c'mon and get your kicks
now you dont need that money
with a face like that, do ya.

Big black boots,
long brown hair,
she's so sweet
with her jet black stare.

Well I could see,
you home with me,
but you were with another man, yea!
I know we,
ain't got much to say,
before I let you get away, yea!
I said, are you gonna be my girl?

Oh yea. Oh yea. C'mon!
I could see,
you home with me,
but you were with another man, yea!
I know we,
ain't got much to say,
before I let you get away, yea!
Uh, be my girl.
Be my girl.
Are you gonna be my girl?! Yea

I also discovered another song that could be used to represent the current political problems faced by the queer community.

I don't need no license
To sign on no line
And I don't need no preacher
To tell me you're mine
I don't need no diamonds
I don't need no new bride
I just need you, baby
To look me in the eye

I know they have a hard time
Your Daddy don't approve
But I don't need your Daddy
Telling us what we should do

Now there's a million questions
I could ask about our lives
But I only need one answer
To get me through the night

So baby, can you tell me just where we fit in
I call it love they call it living in sin
Is it you and me or just his world we live in
We're living on love they say we're living in sin

Is it right for both our parents
Who fight it out most nights
Then pray for God's forgivness
When they both turn out the lights
Or wear that ring of diamonds
When your heart is made of stone
You can talk but still say nothing
You stay together but alone

Or is it right to hold you
And kiss your lips goodnight
They say the promise is forever
If you sign it on the dotted line

Baby, can you tell me just wher we fit in
I call it love they call it living in sin
Is it you and me or just this world we live in
We're living on love they say we're living in sin

Baby, can you tell me just where we fit in
I call it love they call it living in sin
Is it you and me or this world we live in
We're living on love they say we're living in sin

I don't know just where we fit in

I don't know where to begin
I don't know where we fit in

Living in sin, love

I really, really want some decent binoculars.
