2. "You're Not The Boss of Me Now" - TMBG
Edited on Tue Oct-31-06 12:15 PM by buddhamama
Yes, no, maybe
I don't know
Can you repeat the question?

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big
Life is unfair

So I just stare
At the stain on the wall where
The TV'd been
But ever since
We've moved in it's been empty
Why I, why I'm in this room
There is no point explaining

You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big
Life is a test

But I confess
I like this mess I've made so far
Grade on a curve and you'll observe
I'm right below the horizon
Yes, no, maybe, I don't know
Can you repeat the question?

You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
You're not the boss of me now
And you're not so big
Life is unfair

15. i am so TMBG
My song:

Words fail
Buildings tumble
The ground opens wide
Light beams down from heaven
She stands before my eyes

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror but they're actual size
As she drives away

Big men
Often tremble
As they step aside
I thought I was big once
She changed my mind

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me.
I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size
Nationwide, believe

She's got
All the money
Money couldn't buy
She's got something special
That someone left behind

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror but they're actual size
Actual size to her

Her face
Hangs in portrait
On the post office wall
She's stuck in my heart now
Where my blood belongs

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size
Actual size, believe

Notes
Here's the best guess so far about the lyrics to "Larger than Life." Please give input. I need help with all of the reggae lyrics!

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me

Words fail
Buildings tumble
The ground opens wide
Light beams down from heaven
She stands before my eyes

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror but they're actual size
As she drives away

Big men
Often tremble
As they step aside
I thought I was big once
She changed my mind

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size
Nationwide, believe

You think she's big, you think she's larger than life
But if you open up your eyes you'll see she's actual size
You think she's big, you think she's larger than life
But if you open up your eyes you'll see she's actual
In your mind you have her on a pedestal
You admire her from afar like she's a china doll
You need to realize
Before you ????
So go ahead, approach the girl, it up to you ????

You think she's big, you think she's larger than life
But if you open up your eyes you'll see she's actual size
You think she's big, you think she's larger than life
But if you open up your eyes you'll see she's actual

She's got
All the money
Money couldn't buy
She's got something special
That someone left behind

She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me
I've never known anybody like her, she's actual size
Actual size, believe

Words fail
Buildings tumble
Light beams down from heaven
She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me

Drink!
Yeh Yeh
She's An Angel
I Hope That I Get Old Before I Die

A Self Called Nowhere

But there are many, many more great ones......

19. i do too,
i love them, and there's nothing like seeing them perform live.

if pressed i would have to say Absolutely Bill's Mood is my favorite song of theirs.
"...life's just a mood ring we're not allowed to see."

what other band can claim to have had a "Dial A Song"?

17. If I had a nickel for every time my youngest goddaughter said that to me,
in Italian, northern Italian dialect, German, Swiss-German, "hoch Duetch" and English, I'd be a wealthy woman.

Once, when this kid was four years old, I declined to push her in her swing, and she shouted loud enough for all of southern Switzerland and Italy to hear, "Mal educato!" (Translation: "ignorant, badly raised.") :eyes:
