The Major Key

The Magic Position (Patrick Wolf)
So let the people talk
It's Monday morning walk
Right past the fabulous mess we're in
It's gonna be a beautiful day
So do the bluebirds sing
As I take your hand
And you take my kiss
And I take the world
'Cause out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I have sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through

It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position
To live, to learn, to love in the major key

And I know how you've hurt
And been dragged through the dirt
But c'mon get back up
It's the time to live
So give your love to me
I'm gonna keep it carefully
Deep in the treasure chest below my breast
'Cause out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I have sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through

It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position, darling now
Let me put you in the magic position, darling
'Cause I'm singing in the, the major key

Let me put you in the major key

Breakin' Up (Rilo Kiley)
It's not as if new york city
Burnt down to the ground
Once you drove away
It's not as if the sun won't shine
When clouds up above
Wash the blues away

Are we breaking up?
Are we breaking up?
is there trouble between you and i?
Did my heart break enough?
Did it break enough this time?

Here's to all the pretty words
We will never speak
Here's to all the pretty girls
You're gonna meet

Am I breaking up?
Am I breaking up?
Is there trouble on the line?
Did your heart break enough?
did it break enough this time?

Ooh it feels good to be free
Ooh it feels good to be free
Ooh it feels good to be free

Betrayal is a thorny crown
You wear it well
Just like a king
Revenge is the saddest thing
Honey, I'm afraid to say
You deserve everything

Am I breaking up?
Are we breaking up?
Is there trouble between the lines?
Did your heart break enough?
Did it break enough this time?

Ooh it feels good to be free
Ooh it feels good to be free
Ooh it feels good to be free

The Underdog (Spoon)
Picture yourself in a living room,
Your pipe and slippers set out for you,
I know you think that it ain't too far,
But I,

I hear the call of a lifetime ring,
Felt the need to get up for it.
Oh, cut out the middle man
Get free from the middle man.

You got no time for the messenger,
Got no regard for the thing that you don't understand.
You got no fear of The Underdog,
That's why you will not survive.

I wanna forget how convention fits,
Hmmm, but can I get out from under it?
Well I cut it out of me.

It can't all be wedding cake,
It can't all be boiled away,
I tried but I can't let go of it,
Can't let go of it, uh huh.

You shouldn't talk to the water boy,
And there's so much you can learn but you don't want to know,
You will not back up an inch ever,
That's why you will not survive.

The thing that I tell you now,
It may not go over well.
Oh it may not be for a while,
In the way that I spell it out.

But you won't hear from the messenger.
Don't want to know 'bout the thing that you don't understand.
You got no fear of The Underdog,
That's why you will not survive

Go listen and dance and be merry.
