YELLOW
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do.
Yeah, they were all yellow.
I came along.
And all the things you do.
And it was called Yellow.
So then I took my turn
Oh, what a thing to have done,
And it was all yellow.
Your skin
Turn into something beautiful.
And you know,
You know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
Oh, what a thing to do.
'Cause you were all yellow.
I drew a line,
I drew a line for you.
Oh, what a thing to do.
And it was all yellow.
And your skin,
Turn into something beautiful.
And you know,
For you I bleed myself dry,
For you I bleed myself dry.
It's true,
Look how they shine for you.
Look how they shine for you.
Look how they shine for,
Look how they shine for you.
Look how they shine for you.
Look how they shine.
Look how they shine for you
And all the things that you do.

ANGELS
by Robbie Williams
I sit and wait.
And do they know
The places where we go
'Cos I've been told
So when I'm lying in my bed,
And I feel that love is dead,
I'm loving angels instead.
And through it all she offers me protection,
A lot of love and affection,
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me,
When I come to call, she won't forsake me,
I'm loving angels instead.
And my pain walks down a one-way street.
I look above,
And as the feeling grows,
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead.
And through it all she offers me protection,
A lot of love and affection,
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me,
When I come to call, she won't forsake me,
I'm loving angels instead.

HAVE A NICE DAY
by Bon Jovi
Why you want to tell me how to live my life?
Who are you to tell me if it’s black or white?
Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand.
Between a boy and a man?
My daddy lived the lie,
It’s just the price that he paid.
It gets me through the night.
I ain't going to do what I don’t want to.
I'm going to live my life.
Shining like a diamond,
Standing on the ledge,
When the world gets in my face
I say, have a nice day,
Have a nice day.
Take a look around you, look at what he sees.
Of hopes and dreams.
Everybody, pray enough to take a stand.
I knocked on every door,
Looking for forgiveness,
What’s left to believe?
It gets me through the night.
I ain't going to do what I don’t want to.
I'm going to live my life.
Shining like a diamond,
Standing on the ledge,
When the world gets in my face
I say, have a nice day,
Have a nice day.
I've got to raise my hands,
Well I say, have a nice day,
Have a nice day,
Have a nice day.
