Bettye LaVette - On The Surface
On the surface everything seems right no one notices the dimness of the light
For the world outside our door our smiles are oh so bright
On the surface everything's all right

Bettye LaVette - The High Road
I won't be a victim, a beggar, a fool
I try to live my life by the golden rule
If you don't love me
What am I supposed to do
I'll take the high road and walk on away from you

Bettye LaVette - Down To Zero
Oh the feeling
When you're reeling
You step lightly thinking you're number one
Down to zero with a word leaving, for another one

David Knopfler - The Fisherman
Thinking you've put it all behind you
You came looking for your brand new start
As though nothing could remind you
But you can't betray your helpless heart

David Knopfler - Freakshow
Took you on a roller-coaster
Now you're riding to the wall of death
Only doing what you're supposed to
Tell me baby what will you do next?

John Lee Hooker - You're Wrong
You're wrong
Little girl, you're wrong
I try, I try
Baby, to treat you right
All you want to do to me
Baby, was fuss and fight

Roger Waters - The Most Beautiful Girl
She may well have been
The most beautiful girl in the world
Her life snuffed out
Like a bulldozer crushing a pearl

Roger Waters - Bird In A Gale
Are you blowing like a bird in a gale?
Does the pain of your loss seep into your feathers like rain?
Do the bars of your cage feel low or cold to the touch?

Roger Waters - Déjà Vu
If I had been God
I would have rearranged the veins in the face to make them more resistant to alcohol and less prone to aging

The Furies & Davey Arthur - When You Were Sweet Sixteen
When first I saw the love-light in your eyes
I dreamed the world held not but joy for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream but what I dream of thee

Dolores Keane & Mick Hanley - My Love Is In America
My love is in america
And i miss him tonight
So much so
I feel like taking the money we've saved
And catching the flight
And catching the flight

Paddy Reilly - The Fields of Athenry
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn
So the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay

Rui Veloso - Balada da fiandeira
Quando ela deixa o turno fabril
Apanha o autocarro e regressa
Espalha em casa o odor têxtil
E a roda viva recomeça

Rui Veloso - Estrela de Rock and Roll
Não quero ser o tão falado detergente
Para dissolver o teu vazio suavemente
Talvez contar todo o meu sonho
Num castelo de rimas
Sem ter glutões milagrosos
Na patente dos meus enzimas
