let derby light

i was seriously thinking of buying collective soul's 7even-year itch album, a compilation of their hits. but then i couldn't find it at the records section of sm department store. i found cambio's derby light instead. this was last sunday, august 1. the day before, july 31 was our second exam in math 53. i've been whining on and on about wanting the collective soul cd so much so alessa told me to buy it already, as a reward after the exam, even if i did not do so well. just for the effort she told me, i should treat myself. i wasn't really into treating myself since i know i didn't do good at the exam. it was fairly easy but since i didn't study well, there were so many items i could have gotten right but didn't. anyway, i still had to go to sm (i left UP at 6 pm) because i needed some art stuff for my sigsheet - which up to now is still nowhere near becoming "jazzed-up" (a term used by some of the up subol mems - btw, jerwin, the up subol president had his birthday today. he's a 3rd yr favc student and guess what, he just turned 18! my gally!). at least i've already cut it up. now i just need the platform on where i can futher develop it. (nyaha!) hmmm...i've been winding for so long.. where was i? oh yeah. i went to sm, because aside from the art stuffs i've been meaning to buy but wasn't able to (couldn't decide - color, paper - they were too generic, wanted to bring out a side of me), i was also looking for a pair of short shorts to wear over my swimsuit. they were not so strict pala with the wearing of shorts. and since all the gurls in our class were wearing shorts, i bought one too for Php 99.00 at the surplus shop in the 3rd floor of the dept. store. it says on its label it's an organza shirt, colored blue. i found something close to a surfing short/ board short but then it wouldn't fit me so that's what i got. and going to odyssey would take up much more time so i didn't go already. the only collective soul album they had was dosage. then i saw cambio's. i listened to it. first track got me hooked already. and i was just listening to the intros. and i loved 'em. so i bought it. so much for the treat. anyway, i really love the band. sad thing, opm cds sell for 250-300 only while the foreign ones reach 400+. at least for buyers it's ok. hmm..i guess it's ok on the whole.

so i reached the public transport terminal at 8:30. i stood there in line until i got home at quarter to 10. there were just too many people and too few jeepneys. i wanted to go to sm again today but decided against it. i'll buy the album some other time ( i also want to have an original copy of a rush of blood to the head by coldplay, the kill bill and school of rock soundtracks, and miss saigon - yup found one in tower records at crossings dept. store. 2 copies on display. i also want jet's album. and other vcds - particularly the virgin suicides, my sassy girl, the crow, the godfather, these ones i haven't watched yet but i'm so interested in.) maybe this wednesday.

so upcoming, lyrics of some tracks off derby light.. galing tlga nila!

Autopilot

Action
I've been wanting to be here with you
All this time

Traction
I have tracked down the answers and clues
Passing me by

Free when you order
No don't distort her
I am so happy
With my amplifier

Pick up the pieces
Time to move on
All systems clear
Back in control

I'm glad to be here
Glad to be here
Glad to be here
Glad to be

Right here
I've been saving some stories for you
All this time
I will never settle for anything less
I will not rest
Free with my laser
No you can't faze her
You can't deny me
My red explorer

My girlfriend
She is exciting
She is exciting to the point of collapse

My teacher
She is fantastic
She is fantastic to the point of relapse

Bm-Bm G-G A
*She's so elastic
She's so fantastic
She is so silly that you wanna go

G B
Papapapapapapapa

My new toy
It's so amazing
It's so amazing I'm losing control

I love my old shoes
They're very old school
They're very old school, they've got rubber soul

Repeat *

A-G-A-C-A-G-A
She wants to be a porcupine
I wanna be her valentine
She wants to be a movie star
No, I don't care just who you are




PATLANG

Tumutulo luha ko
Tahimik tayo sa telepono
Di makakailang
Di na tayo masaya sinta

*Paano kung ayoko na?
`San na tayo pupunta?

**Pilit mang pigilin
Luha'y darating din
Wag mo lang sabihin
Ayaw mo nang isipin
Wag na nating patagalin
Di ka masaya
Pagod na ako
Tapusin na natin ito

Di makapaniwalang matatapos na
Parang kay tagal nating nagdusa
Pusong di mapalagay
Parang habambuhay kitang hinintay

REPEAT * and **

Paalam na (8x) sinta

LEDGEBOY

Never felt this sudden urge
This wonderful feeling
Never felt my heart burning
Burning sensation

You can just take me away
And I won't let go

Baby you're so beautiful
Beautiful tonight
No one has ever made me feel
This way before

You can just take me away
And I won't let go

Oh I wanna go dancing
Dancing with you

Never felt so excited
Under pressure
Darling yeah the mood
The tunes

Hope this won't be the last dance
Hope this won't be the last chance
I wanna get some more



LIHIM

INTRO – A – (FM7)
VERSE A9 -FM7

Tinapos mo na ba?
Pano sisimulan?
Ayoko lang naman
May masagasaan

Anong sinabi mo?
Anong sinabi nya?
Ayoko ng gulo
Ipagtapat mo na

E-F-E
Ang lahat

F#m-A-C#m-F#-Bm-Dm-F-A-E
Tungkol sa atin
Nabibitin lang habang tumatagal
Nahihirapan na ako
Umibig ng lihim

INTRO

May nasasaktan
Dahil naghihintay
May umaasa
Di mapalagay

Ano ang plano mo?
Mahal mo pa ba sya?
Kung mahal mo na ako
Ipagtapat mo na

Ang lahat
Tungkol sa atin
Nabibitin lang habang tumatagal
Nahihirapan na ako
Umibig ng lihim

INTRO

Paano tayo?
Di makaandar
Ano ang gagawin?
Nawawalang lugar

Anong sinabi mo?
Anong sinabi nya?
Ayoko ng gulo
Ipagtapat mo na

Ang lahat
Tungkol sa atin
Nabibitin lang habang tumatagal
Nahihirapan na ako
Umibig ng lihim

INTRO EXTENDED



PHOTOSTATIK
Try to make up your mind
What you wanna do
Picturesque as the scene
With the colorfast crew now

(G-G#-A-G#)/G

Red like the spots in my head
Slide a bug up your hide
Blue as the fish in the sea
Scale skin for you and me
Yellow bird run away
Mellow fella for a day

*Think about the colors of the weather
You like it or not
Tell me what you got

What you wanna do?
Picturesque as the scene
With the colorfast crew now

Don't be afraid to ask
Maybe you will find out
The wonderful stories that you left behind

INTRO

Green like a horny toad
On the side of the road
Orange you the one
Who blot out the sun?

Purple raindrops on your head
Perfect day to move ahead
