 Posted: 01/17/03 - 15:08 Post subject: Favorite Break Up Song?
This is for Cheryl.
Listen here, girls
Take this advice, and remember always in life:
Into each heart some tears must fall
Though you love and lose, you must stand tall
'Cause we all got to cry sometimes
I said, sigh sometimes
Pull yourself together
No use crying forever
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea
My mother once told me something
And every word is true
Don't waste your time on a fella
Who doesn't love you
He'll only mislead you
Only grieve you
Don't worry about him
Do without him
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea
Well, if the fish isn't on your line
Bait your hook and keep on trying
Don't let him get you down
There's other boys around
Because there's too many fish in the sea
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea
I don't want nobody that don't want me
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
Ain't gonna love nobody that don't love me, now
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
I don't need nobody that don't need me
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
I don't want nobody that don't love me, now
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea

The best evah.... The Tubes
I met her on a strip
It was another lost weekend
The band was too slick
And the people were twisted
So I asked her for a date
She reluctantly agreed
Then we went to my place
And she never did leave
She won't even miss me when she's gone
And that's okay with me I'll cry later on
It's been six months
She hasn't shut up once
I've tried to explain
She's driving me insane
She won't even miss me when she's gone
And that's okay with me I'll cry later on
Talk to ya later—don't want to hear it again tonight
Talk to ya later—just save it for another guy
Talk to ya later—don't want to hear it again tonight
I'll just see you around
Get out
I'm telling you now
Do you catch my drift
What could be plainer than this
Nothin' more to be said
Write me a letter instead
I don't mean to be cruel
But I'm finished with you
She won't even miss me when she's gone
That's okay with me I'll cry later on
Talk to ya later—don't want to hear it again tonight
Talk to ya later—just save it for another guy
Talk to ya later—don't want to hear it again tonight
I'll just see you around

I love it!! Thanks poky! 
I've got several lately favorites lately 
Among them:
Joking by the Indigo Girls
Idiot Wind by Bob Dylan
Untouchable Face by Ani DiFranco (okay, plus just about everything she writes!)
and thanks to "Breakup Songs Radio" on vh1.com I've discovered another favorite, Tyrone by Eryka Badu
Joking, for all my friends. Its a great great song.
You said the world was magic
I was wide-eyed and laughing
we were dancing up to the bright side
forget about your ego
forget about your pride
and you will never have to compromise
and you were only joking
you were only joking brother
We talked about our mothers
kissed the wounds of our fathers
I could have been your sister
I would have been your brother
you kissed me like I was a soldier
headed for a war
A dying man but I don't know what for
and you were only joking
you were only joking brother
you were only joking
(wide-eyed and laughing)
you were only joking brother
(dancing up to the bright side)
Gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet
I bruised my heels on the swollen street
we were girls in bars
boys on the town
bumping like a pinball off a careless crowd
you said good friends are hard to come by
I laughed and bought you a beer
it's too corny to cry
well sentiment given
oh sentiment lost
you shake it off with a smirk and a toss
and you were only joking
you were only joking brother
you were only joking
were only joking brother
and you were only joking
(gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet)
you were only joking brother
(I bruised my heels on the swollen street)
you kissed me like a soldier heading for a war
(joking)
I'm a dying man
(you were only joking)
and you were only joking
(don't know what for)
(dying man)
you were only joking brother
(don't know what for)
and you were only
and you were only
and you were only joking
brother
(and then there are lots of "Sha la"s and so forth here...)

Song For The Dumped
by Ben Folds Five
So you wanted to take a break?
Slow it down some, and have some space?
Well f.ck you too!
Give me my money back, give me my money back, you b.tch.
I want my money back.
You f.cking whore! [*and don't forget]
Wish I hadn't bought you dinner, right before you dumped me on your front porch.
Give me my money back, give me my money back, you b.tch.
I want my money back.
You f.cking whore! [*and don't forget]
And don't forget to give me back my black T-Shirt.
So you wanted to take a break?
Slow it down some, and have some space? [**Well f.ck you too!]
Give me my money back,
Give me my money back, give me my money back, you b.tch.
I want my money back.
I want my money back.
I want my money back.
I want my black T-Shirt.
I want my black T-Shirt.

Love Stinks -- The J. Geils Band
You love her, but she loves him
And he loves somebody else
You just can't win
And so it goes till the day you die
This thing they call love is gonna make you cry
I've had the blues, the reds, and the pinks
One thing's for sure
Love stinks
(Chorus)
Love stinks, yeah yeah
Love stinks, yeah yeah
Love stinks, yeah yeah
Love stinks, yeah yeah
Two-by-two and side-by-side
Love's gonna find you, yes it is
You just can't hide
You'll hear it call your heart will fall
Then love will fly, it's gone that's all
I don't care for any things
All I can say is
Love stinks
(Chorus)
I've been through diamonds
And I've been through minks
I've been through it all
Love stinks
(Chorus)
(Chorus)

I'll Fall In Love Again
You do what you want to do
I'll leave it all up to you
In time, I'll fall in love again
A hot love growin cold
Just when you thought you'd found a heart of gold
Looks like, I've been fooled again
Chorus:
Oh but it's all right, with me now
I'll get back up somehow
And with a little luck, I'm bound to win
And I'll fall in love again
I'll fall in love again
And you're always sittin ring side
Just a rollin' with the changing tide
The tide has washed you from my mind
And I guess you think you've got it made
Oh but then you never were afraid
Of anything that you've left behind
[Chorus]
Yea, yea, yea
Yea, yea, yea, I'll fall in love again...
Here's something to compare it to
Like the little things you used to do
Like giving more than you take
Funny how the reasons grow
Then the very next things you know
The odds change, dividing up the cake
[Chorus]
Don't worry 'bout me baby
I'll along somehow
I'll fall in love again
Yes it's all right
Yes it's all right
