Zeroes

by J.J. Cale

(Royston Langdon and Gareth Hodgson)
Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As world falls openwide
Like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
My lost awakening
I've found the same as life before
When after me another lonely wounded solider falls
like light fantastic
that falls upon my shoulder
fall
don't fall upon my shoulder
She gave me a call
So I gave her a smile
When I asked for her love
And what should I dial
…she said 'Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero'
Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As world falls open wide
Like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
I gave her a car
So she gave me a smile
When I asked for her love
And what, should I drive
…she said 'Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero'

...Dancing on the borderline... (9x)
...4-3-2-1...
Hello, although I'm a static Zero.
I'm fighting all your wars,
While you dwell in your hypocrisy
You think the world is fine,
When all the evil's overlined
Before you wake up this morning...
Well, hello, you're the local superhero?
Your stronghold's but a paper bag,
We suffer for your promised land
Excuse is really thin,
Hide your revealed Achilles' heel...
Before a brave new morning...
[ref:]
All you little superheroes,
Fall short without all them zeroes
A pie in the sky is your brave new world,
And so powerless are thy miracles...
Ones, they walk before the rows of O's,
And soon it dawns on them, how to make billions...
Dream up a world, oh how powerless are thy miracles...
...I'm so tired to fight you
The sun is, oh, so desperate to set tonight,
Ashamed to light a lie...
[ref:]
All you little superheroes,
Fall short without all them zeroes
A pie in the sky is your brave new world,
Your homestead's not yours much longer...
These people win elections, empowered by YOU!
These wars are never ending, acceptance just mind-bending
It's a conspiracy and as always the end is here
We were born that day...
This destiny wrote us a life we now waste away
Waste it away, do it today...
My life is fine, so why would I care...
Because it's not my ass, per se, on the line.
[ref:] x2
All you little superheroes,
Fall short without all them zeroes
A pie in the sky is your brave new world,
...Dancing on the borderline...(3x)
4-3-2-1-do it today!

Zeroes

by Cypress hill

(Ladies and Gentlemen
Tonight, yes, the Zeroes will be singing for you!)
Yeah Yeah [x4]
You've arrived in the land
of a thousand different names
And the fabulous sons have crashed their planes in flames
Now tomorrow's back claiming redemption is on your heels
And a toothless past is asking you
how it feels
And me my little red Corvette
has driven by
My fair weather heart has fallen in
My rainy day girl
is feeling down
And she tells me
that the world is spinning round
I say the dream was all for you
You're nobody else
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you
Yeah Yeah
Yeah
Hi, can I walk you home
again today
Gotta get forgive and forget hey-hey
Something good is happening I don't know what it is
Don't you know we're back on trial again today
And it's breaking wine for you
Hell it's only 'cause you're true
Someone outtimed my heart
Stopping and preaching
and letting love in
You are my moon, you are my sun
Heaven knows what you are
Tonight the Zeroes are singing for you
Yes they were
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you
Doesn't matter what you try to do
Doesn't matter what you try to do
Doesn't matter where you try to go
Doesn't matter who we really are
