In The Valley - By MC Eric B
=======================
Let me tell you all a story
about power and greed
and a magical place
with everything that you need
It all started when Woz and Jobs
built a cool computer
they did it from their garage
didn't wanna be no commuter
Then, how do you like them apples
money started growing on trees
everybody hopped the train
and started companies
Pack your bags
we're moving to Cali
gonna make me a fortune
in Silicon Valley
Chorus
=================================
In the Valley
all the streets are paved with gold
In the Valley
everyone's a bigshot CEO
In the Valley
In the Valley
In the Valley
In the Valley
=================================
Along came Mr. Gore
to invent the Net
guess his global warming thing
hadn't started yet
Soon there were chat rooms
and games on AOL
luckily broadband saved us all
from that dialup hell
20 year old kids
working in their dorm rooms
were the fuel that ignited
the dot com boom
Now we can Myspace and Facebook
on our cellular phones
even the jails and churches
have wifi zones
So with its venture funds
and wild IPOs
California
is the place to go
Gonna build me a site
find a West Coast niche
cuz In Silicon Valley
they will make you rich
Chorus
=================================
In the Valley
all the streets are paved with gold
In the Valley
everyday another company's sold
In the Valley
In the Valley
In the Valley
In the Valley
=================================

see the valley filled with bones

Psaume 23
L'Eternel est mon berger. Je ne manquerai de rien.
Grâce à lui, je me repose dans des prairies verdoyantes,
et c'est lui qui me conduit au bord des eaux calmes.
Il me rend des forces neuves, et, pour l'honneur de son nom,
il me mène pas à pas sur le droit chemin.
Si je devais traverser la vallée des épaisses ténèbres,
je ne craindrais aucun mal, car tu es auprès de moi:
ta houlette me conduit et ton bâton me protège.
Pour moi, tu dresses une table aux yeux de mes ennemis,
tu oins de parfums ma tête, tu fais déborder ma coupe.
Oui, toute ma vie, ta bonté et ton amour m'accompagneront
et j'habiterai au temple de l'Eternel tant que je vivrai.

Re: In The Valley
In the Valley
By: Glennwood
In the valley. On the streets.
All the faces. Those we meet.
In the city. Standing Tall.
All the people who are free, Smiling bright in Jubilee. Still they fall.
In the country. Fresh as dew.
Where the people never roam. Feeling great right there at home. Still they’re blue.
In the valley, it’s so dark
Like the night will not embark
Will not turn the reins back to the morning sun
Though we put smiles on our face
In our hearts, we find no trace
We keep hoping that the night will soon be done.
In the valley. On the road.
People living out their dreams. Seeing all there is to see. Still with load.
In the schoolyard. At a desk.
Among people that we know. Those we share with while we grow. Still unrest.
CHORUS
Still there’s hope.
Still there’s hope.
Still there’s hope.
I hope…
In the valley. In the night.
Stars are shining beautifully. Lighting everything we see. Still it’s night.
In the valley. In the dark.
In the valley. In the dark…
In the dark…

In the Valley
By Osharenistas
In the valley, I was enamored by a girl all in tatters. She was young and impatient. I was hopeless, but adjacent. I bought her flowers and a stuffed bear just the day before she left here. When she came back, they had wilted. (Well, at least she hadn't killed 'em.) But before too long they had gone. I was wrong.
In the suburbs, when I was younger, we had a color TV at my grandmother's. It was a luxury, I can assure you. It kept us quiet past our curfews. But out of habit (or maybe frustration), she'd turn up the contrast and saturation so she would get the most out of the picture: the skies were bluer, the grass was greener. But the picture tube had gone before long.
So I was hoping that you'd listen, even though it's just my opinion. But I'll take care of all the daisies even when they don't need saving. And the colors? Well I trust that our eyes will adjust.

Going down to The Valley I'm gunna start a fight
Going down to The Valley I'm gunna pick up chicks
Going down to The Valley and get so fucking pissed
Come on, fire up boys
Let's head on down
Come on, fire up boys

Gold Coast moles are airhead fucking sluts
Ipswich slags, I fucking hate their guts
Paddo scrags are up themselves
West End girls are dykes
But Valley girls are fucking all right
What do we want?

Missed the 3am lockout, so I got a fat kebab
And spewed my guts up all the way down fucking Brunswick Street
(vomit solo)

[ In The Valley à la Plain Songs for Doves & Tigers ]
That night we slept in the valley
not a five star spot to sleep
But the peaks were lost in rainclouds
and the slopes were soggy and steep.
The bottle of vodka went largely untouched
we were weary of its warmth
and the baked beans were barely baked
and the jokes were somewhat afraid
of a night so simple and grand.
And when we fell asleep, not sure if we'd dream or just die
the ghost deer of the valley must have entered our dreams in reply.
And the sun rose over the valley
but we'd been up for a while
raised by the cold that was put in the ground
by the downpour of yesternight.
Our breakfast consisted of little
but the next day consisted of much
The next valley was a paradise
with fool's gold and happy skies
and ultimately, a pub.
And when we fell asleep, with more life to lose - should we die
the ghost deer of the valley must have felt that we owed them some rye.

I'm gonna take myself down town
Gonna buy my friends a round
I just might get in a fight
If I don't get me some
Oh won't you give me a home
Where the drunks and hookers roam
A dimension of sight and sound
We're in the twilight zone

Goin' down to the valley
We're goin' to get drunk as a skunk
Act just like middle aged punks
Then crawl from bar to bar
Until this night is sunk
Head on down to Burrito King
Get a carnitas cheese and bean
Goin' down it tastes so fine
But coming up it tastes like swine

Re: In The Valley
In The Valley by Donkeypunch
Life is full of ups and downs
Sometimes you're a winner, sometimes a clown
I'm in a tailspin but I just don't care
Down in the valley of my sweet despair
Cuz you see, there's people out there gonna try and trip you up
These days are dark, man, can't seem to find my luck
I been scratchin' and bleeding and I'm losing my hair
Down in the valley of my sweet despair
Cuz I got my guns
And I got my knives
I got my pills- I swear I'm gonna do it
I got my noose
And I got my car
I know quite a few tall buildings
No way back from this funk of bad news
I'm under pressure and I'm feeling the blues
No one cares anyway- they're all so unkind
Ain't nothing gonna change my suicidal mind
Cuz I got my guns
And I got my knives
I got my pills- I swear I'm gonna do it
I got my noose
And I got my car
I know quite a few tall buildings
Wait
What's that you say? Things are gonna get better?
Really? You mean... you mean if I just try and make the best of things
Then everything will come around? I can be happy again?
I... I think you're right! Things *can* get better!
What was I thinking? Thank you!
Thank you for saving me! God bless you!
Yeah, right. Fuck you.
I got my guns
And I got my knives
