Don`t stray, don`t ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me

Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don`t let me drown, let me down
I say it`s all because of you

And here I go, losing my control
I`m practicing your name
So I can say it to your face
It doesn`t seem right to look you in the eye

Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it`s time to tell you why

Said You Wanna Be Startin Somethin
You Got To Be Startin Somethin
I Said You Wanna Be Startin Somethin
You Got To Be Startin Somethin
Its Too High To Get Over (Yeah, Yeah)
Too Low To Get Under (Yeah, Yeah)
Youre Stuck In The Middle (Yeah, Yeah)
And The Pain Is Thunder (Yeah, Yeah)
Its Too High To Get Over (Yeah, Yeah)
Too Low To Get Under (Yeah, Yeah)
Youre Stuck In The Middle (Yeah, Yeah)
And The Pain Is Thunder (Yeah, Yeah)

I Took My Baby To The Doctor
With A Fever, But Nothing He Found

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I`m dying
Are the best I`ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
`Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles

Obama`s Hypocrisy

What is good for the goose is *NOT* good for the gander!!

He was only asked to delay the visit by just one week!! What` the big drama for??

AFP - Sri Lanka barred Sweden`s foreign minister Tuesday from entering the island on a humanitarian mission, as diplomatic tensions mounted over the conduct of the war on the Tamil Tigers.

Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt had been due to travel to the war-torn country this week to press demands for aid workers to be given full access to civilians trapped by heavy fighting between government troops and the rebels.

Sri Lanka`s government has restricted access to the conflict zone where it is fighting the Tamil Tigers. But in an Al Jazeera exclusive, David Chater went on patrol with the Sri Lankan navy as it rescued civilians fleeing heavy fighting off the northeastern coast.

He reports on what has been described as a `humanitarian disaster` from the government`s side of the battlefront.
