"Killing Me Softly With His Song": (Break)

"Killing Me Softly With His Song"
Strumming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
I heard he sang a good song

I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him
To listen for a while
And there he was this young boy
A stranger to my eyes

I felt all flushed with fever

Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
And read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on

He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn't there
And he just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong

[Break]

Killing me
He was strumming my pain

Yeah, he was singing my life
Killing me softly
With his song
"It's Raining Men"
Humidity is rising
Barometer's getting low
According to our sources
The street's the place to go
'Cause tonight for the first time

Just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
Humidity is rising
Barometer's getting low
According to our sources
The street's the place to go
'Cause tonight for the first time

Just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
I'm gonna go out

I'm gonna let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Every specimen
Tall, blonde, dark and lean

Rough and tough and strong and mean
God bless Mother Nature

She's a single woman too
She took over heaven
And she did what she had to do
She taught every angel

To rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find the perfect guy
It's raining men
Go get yourself wet, girl

I know you want to
I feel stormy weather moving in

About to begin
Hear the thunder
Don't you lose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed
(Rip off the roof and stay)
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
It's raining men

Hallelujah
It's raining men
Amen
It's raining men

It's raining men
It's raining men
"Just The Way You Are"
Ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh
Oh, her eyes, her eyes

Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeah
I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?"
I say
When I see your face (face, face...)

There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
And when you smile (smile, smile...)
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause, girl, you're amazing (amazing)
Yeah
Her lips, her lips

I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Oh you know, you know, you know

I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say,
When I see your face (face, face...)

And when you smile (smile, smile...)
'Cause, girl, you're amazing (amazing)
The way you are

The way you are
Girl, you're amazing (amazing)
When I see your face

And when you smile
'Cause, girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah
"Girl On Fire"
She's just a girl and she's on fire

Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got her head in the clouds
And she's not backing down
This girl is on fire...

She's walking on fire...
Looks like a girl, but she's a flame

So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you'll never forget her name
She's on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls say
Ohhhh oh oh oh
We got our feet on the ground
And we're burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
Got our head in the clouds
And we're not coming down

Everybody stares, as she goes by

'Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes
Watch her as she's lighting up the night
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
And it's a lonely world
But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby

Oh, oh, oh, oh ohhhhh oh oh oh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh...
She's just a girl and she's on fire
"Roar"
I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath

Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sit quietly
Agree politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice

I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing
So I fell for everything
You held me down, but I got up (Hey!)

Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
I got the eye of the tiger

A fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Now I'm floating like a butterfly

Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes
I went from zero
To my own hero

Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

A fighter
You'll hear me roar
Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar

A fighter
You'll hear me roar
