Scooby Roo

Basically doing a presentation to about 20-40 people on risk and want about 10 or so lyrics from tunes to add into the talk.

There are a couple of people in the crowd that think there the dogs nads in lyrics and I want a bit of fun and a wager.......

Bit of a laff [for us anyway] the rest can't know [though I suspect some will twig], they'll just get bored with me drooning on and on and on.

Cheers Roo

what type of lyrics, must they be associated with risk?...or just any old song lyrics. I know some awesome lyrics from relatively unkown (in the uk) bands....whether they'r be what you're after I don't know.

Scooby Roo

Any lyrics preferably nothing from Fr*ggin in the riggin or the Macc Lads but summut clean

Genie can't think of any lyrics to do with risk even Val Doonican wasn't that cr*p

Not a song but a very apt poem.

RISK
Author unknown

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out to others is to risk involvement
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self
To place your ideas, your dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss
To love is to risk not being loved in return
To live is to risk dying
To hope is to risk despair
To try is to risk failure
But risks must be taken,
because the greatest hazard in life is to do nothing.
The person who risks nothing,
does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow,
but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.
Chained by their attitudes, they are a slave,
they forfeited their freedom.
Only the person who risks can be free

Cheers Yve

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under..
Everythings not lost (coldplay)
Life, roll my dice (the verve)
its time you realise your just an average man (used in a 'you can only do the best you can do' way) (turin brakes)
and if its going bad.....do you believe in what you see? There doesn't seem to anybody else who agrees with me (zero 7)
if you believe they put a man on the moon (REM)
Don't believe the hype (PE)
All it takes is one decision, a lot of guts, a little vision (placebo)
