(Holiday In Spain: Counting Crows)
Got no place to go
but there's a girl waiting for me down in Mexico
She's got a bottle of tequila, a bottle of gin
And if I bring a little music I can fit right in

(Pushing Me Away Linkin Park)
This is/the last smile
That i'll fake for the sake of being with you.

(Brain Damage Pink Floyd)
The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

My favourite song lyrics are from "He is" by Brandy.
Its a beautiful song and Brandy's voice is so right for the nature of the song. :lol: It also has a special meaning for my boyfriend and I, thats probably why I love it the most! :lol:



It's the only explanation
To the question at hand
Like years of pain gone away
In a single day
There's nothing that compares
To the way
You make me feel inside
And I'm so glad you're my...

Prince charming, my angel
My king and my friend
My love, my one
He is, he is
The beat in my heart
The kiss on my lips
My lover, my one
He is, he is

They could take away the money
My fortune and fame
But as long as you stay
Here with me
I would be OK
I look at you
And I see me
Just reflections of the love you made with me
And I'm so glad you want to be my

Prince charming, my angel
My king and my friend
My love, my one
He is, he is
The beat in my heart
The kiss on my lips
My lover, my one
He is, he is

My sun, my shine
My heart, my mind
He is everything
I gotta love you like no one has ever loved before
I gotta give you what you gave baby so much more
I wanna take it fast, but I want to take it slow
Addicted to your love and I can't let go

Prince charming, my angel
My king and my friend
My love, my one
He is, he is
The beat in my heart
The kiss on my lips
My lover, my one
He is, he is

I love loads of songs so it's hard to pick a favourite!

Hmm, I'm not sure some of my favourite lyrics could be posted because they mostly contain swearing! Like the Guns n Roses song that has the lyric:

"I see you standing there. You think you're so cool. Why don't you just .... off!". Makes me laugh!

There she goes again by The La's is an interesting one. Not my favourite, but interesting all the same:

There she goes
There she goes again
Racing thru' my brain
And I just can't contain
This feelin' that remains
There she blows
There she blows again
Pulsing thru' my vein
And I just can't contain
This feelin' that remains
There she goes, there she goes again
She calls my name, pulls my train
No-one else could heal my pain
And I just can't contain
This feelin' that remains
There she goes
There she goes again
Chasing down my lane
And I just can't contain
This feelin' that remains


Can anyone else see they're singing about heroin?

Hindu Times by Oasis is another

...In and out my brain
Running through my veins
Cos you're my sunshine
You're my rain...

One of the funniest, with a great line at the end has to be

Every morning when I wake up, I look Kiss but without the make up, and that's a good line to take it to the bridge.

Oh riiiiiight....

I thought he was singing '...like Casper without the make up...'

And I thought: Casper the friendly ghost ?!

No Kiss as in the Rock band.

Has anyone ever told you that you have shifty eyes:banana:

from "0+2=1" by nomeansno

0 +2 =1
Race to the finish line at a dead run
Live is short and love is fleeting –
Before these masks, haloed with snakes
Hissing like rain on the pavement
The blind are deafened and the lame are made dumb
For that queer equation this is the sum:
0 +2 =1

0 +2 =1
Before the feast, chops on the block!
A word, to the wise, is a fork into flesh.
Everything streched under God’s great hand:
A mouth to an breast, an axe to a tree,
The hoot of an owl in the dreams of a mouse –
Count on your fingers, it’s the rule of the thumbs, but
0 +2 =1

0 +2 =1
Yes and no are like day and night,
One breaks as the other is falling.
Questions the answers, stir the solutions,
In the end, for light, you must burn your conclusions;
Night and darkness love silence above all,
Not the equations of sun-loving apes,
Or their prayers for the dead of a world that’s to come
0 +2 =1

0 +2 =1
It may not be nice, it may not be fun,
It may just be a halo of hissing snakes.
But if nothing is something, if to rise is to fall,
Then a child needs a name like a corpse needs a pall –
Nonsense is better than no sense at all.
Hail to the lies by which all truths are hounded!
Teh murder is done, the temple is founded
Where the current is grounded ist circuitry hums:
0 +2 =1

....I like loads a songs....one of my fav songs is Lucky Man by the Verve

Yes, Mikey.

They are currently helping to support a motorway fly-over somewhere north of Bristol.

I idly play with their severed toes whilst listening to the voices in my head urging me to eat the bishop's wife.

And now, my friend, the eyes are upon you.
:twisted: :lol:

Best Song Lyrics?
No contest. Fandabidozi by those incredible Scottish songsmiths
The Krankies.
Dated? So is Beethoven
Trite? So is White Christmas
And how many children have been conceived as lovers come
together with their music playing in the background.
Thank you Janet and Ian for bringing the brackish beat of
Scotland to a grateful world.

One Way of Life by the Levellers usually gets me singing...

My father when I was younger
took me up onto the hill
that looks down on the city smoke
far above the factory spill
he said now this is where I come
when i want to be free
but he never was in his lifetime
and these words stuck with me
GO!

There's only one way of life
and that's your own, your own, your own...

:)but there are so many many other songs as well

Fame fame fatal fame
it can play hideous tricks on the brain
But I would rather be famous than righteous or holy
Anyday anyday anyday
But sometimes I'd feel more fulfilled
Making Christmas cards with the mentally ill
I want to live and I want to love
I want to catch something that I might be ashamed of.
Frankly Mr Shankly The Smiths

Don McLean - American Pie

I won't print the lyrics, as the song is 8 minutes long, but it is absolutely bonkers (in a good sense)

"Last saw your face in a watercolor sky
As sea birds argue, a long goodbye
I took your kiss on the spray of the New Line Star
You gotta live with your dreams, don't make them so hard"

- U2 The Hands That Built America

This bit sounds like snogging your lover at the harbour before you set off on a eight month voyage across the oceans. :) *sigh* I hope to do that some day.

Let's not forget Rainbow:

I saw you standing there by the stage
Your black stockings and your see-through dress
You mouth is open but I don't want to hear you say good night
You're sorta young but you;re overage
I don't care cos I like you're style
Don't know about your brain but you look alright.
;) :P

it's got to be "it only took one match to burn down Kelly Jones" from "cant stop dreaming of injured pop stars" by Chris TT.

oh man I could list loads!

purely for the first line, this by Hefner:

We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies,
Even though we know it's not right,
We will dance and sing all night.

I was blind in 1979, by '82 I had clues,
By 1986 I was mad as hell.

The teachers at school, they took us for fools,
They never taught us what to do,
But Christ we were strong, we knew all along,
We taught ourselves the right from wrong.

And the punk rock kids, and the techno kids,
No, it's not their fault.
And the hip hop boys and heavy metal girls,
No, it's not their fault.

It was love, but Tories don't know what that means,
She was Michelle Cox from the lower stream,
She wore high-heeled shoes while the rest wore flat soles.

And the playground taught her how to be cruel,
I talked politics and she called me a fool,
She wrapped her ankle chain round my left wing heart.

Ding dong, the witch is dead, which old witch?
The wicked witch.
Ding dong, the wicked witch is dead.

it's got to be "it only took one match to burn down Kelly Jones" from "cant stop dreaming of injured pop stars" by Chris TT.

oh man I could list loads!

purely for the first line, this by Hefner

Spot on, that Chris TT song is absolutely superb (though slightly out of date now, given that there are lots of pop culture references).

And Hefner also had some great lyrics - would have gone for an earlier effort myself, but that's being pedantic!

my favourite song lyrics all come from robbie williams songs but thats because he's such an expresional writer. but these are my favourite at the moment.

Nan's Song


You said when you died that you'd walk with me everyday
And I started to cry and said please don't talk that way
With a blink of an eye and the Lord came and asked you to leave
You went to a better place but they stole you away from me

And now she lives in heaven
But I know they let her out
To take care of me
There's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear
She is near
Bringing heaven down here

I miss your love I miss your touch
But I'm feeling you every day
And I can almost hear you say
You've come a long way baby

And now you live in heaven
But I know they let you out
To take care of me
There's a strange kind of light
In my bedroom tonight
Pray silence my fear
She is near
Bringing heaven down here

You taught me kings and queens
While strokeing in my head
In my darkest hour
I know you are there
Leaning down beside me
Whispering my prayers
There's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear

Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Dosed" from the album By The Way

I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and
What am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay

In you a star is born and
You cut a perfect form and
Someone forever warm

Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life

Show love with no remorse and
Climb on to your seahorse and
This ride is right on course
This is the way I wanted it to be with you
This is the way that I knew that it would be with you

If I was going to be having a first dance at my wedding today, this song would be it. But we don't do dancing ;-)

From the musical Hair, lyrics by one William Shakespeare.

What a piece of work is man
How noble in reason
How infinite in faculties
In form and moving
How express and admirable
In action how like an angel
In apprehension how like a god
The beauty of the world
The paragon of animals
I have of late
But wherefore I know not
Lost all my mirth
This goodly frame
The earth
Seems to me a sterile promontory
This most excellent canopy
The air-- look you!
This brave o'erhanging firmament
This majestical roof
Fretted with golden fire
Why it appears no other thing to me
Than a foul and pestilent congregation
Of vapors
What a piece of work is man
How noble in reason
How dare they try to end this beauty?
How dare they try to end this beauty?
Walking in space
We find the purpose of peace
The beauty of life
You can no longer hide
Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open
Wide wide wide!

Surely the greatest most meaningful lyric of all time is by Snap:

'.. I'm as serious as Cancer, when I say rhythm is a dancer..'

:huh: :shakes:

Normally I cant stand Radiohead cos its music to slit your wrists to but I love the lyrics in "creep"

"I dont give enough
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When Im not around
Youre so very special
I want to be special"

But when Im feeling in aparticularly optimistic mood, or need my spirits lifting then "Feeling Good" does it for me the Nina Simone or the Muse version after all the lyrics are still the same :D

Too many to choose, but I'll plump for this coz it still floats my boat even now....

Changes by David Bowie:

Still don’t know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought I’d got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I’ve never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I’m much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
So the days float through my eyes
But stil the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They’re quite aware of what they’re going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Where’s your shame
You’ve left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can’t trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Ah changes are taking the pace I’m going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Oh, look out you rock ’n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now you’re gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can’t trace time

love this song, really makes me emotional when i hear or sing it. you will probably know it joni mitchell, a case of you :)


Just before our love got lost you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
And I said, "Constant in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar"

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
And I sketched your face on it twice

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time that you told me, you said
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
"Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
And you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said
"Go to him, stay with him if you can
Oh but be prepared to bleed"
Oh but you are in my blood you're my holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet


but when feeling really happy then nina simones, its an awesome song!!n i love singing it.

Ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money, ain't got no class
Ain't got no skirts, ain't got no sweater
Ain't got no perfume, ain't got no beer
Ain't got no man

Ain't got no mother, ain't got no culture
Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schooling
Ain't got no love, ain't got no name
Ain't got no ticket, ain't got no token
Ain't got no God

What about God?
Why am I alive anyway?
Yeah, what about God?
Nobody can take away

I got my hair, I got my head
I got my brains, I got my ears
I got my eyes, I got my nose
I got my mouth, I got my smile
I got my tongue, I got my chin
I got my neck, I got my boobs (hahaha)

I got my heart, I got my soul
I got my back, I got my sex
I got my arms, I got my hands
I got my fingers, Got my legs
I got my feet, I got my toes
I got my liver, Got my blood

I've got life , I've got my freedom
I've got the life

And I'm gonna keep it
I've got the life
And nobody's gonna take it away
I've got the life

I'm not a massive Smiths fan but 'There is a Light That Never Goes Out' has awesome lyrics:

Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their
Home, and I'm welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
(But then a strange fear gripped me and I
Just couldn't ask)

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, da ...
Oh, I haven't got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Oh, There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

spook, i think, looks like kiss. hehehehe

erm my fave lyrics are by REM

im puishing an elephant up the stair
im making up punch lines that were never there
im over my shoulder a piano falls crashing to the ground


or some linkin park lyrics from in the end

It starts with one...
One thing,
I don't know why,
It doesn't even matter how hard you try,
Keep that in mind,
I designed this rhyme,
To explain in due time,
All I know,
Time is a valuable thing,
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings,
Watch it count down 'till the end of the day,
The clock ticks life away,
It's so unreal,
You didn't look out below,
Watch the time go right out the window,
Trying to hold on,
Didn't even know, I wasted it all,
Just to watch you go,
I kept everything inside,
And even know I tried,
It all fell apart,
What it meant to be,
Will eventually be,
A memory of a time, when ,

I tried so hard and got so far,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
To lose it all,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,

One thing, i don't know why,
It doesn't even matter how hard you try,
Keep that in mind,
I designed this rhyme,
To remind myself
How I tried so hard...
In spite the way you were mocking me,
Acting like i was part of your property,
Remembering all the times you fought with me,
I'm surprised it got so far,
Things aren't the way they were before,
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore,
Not that you knew me back then,
But it all comes back to me,
In the end...
You kept everything inside,
And even know i tried it all fell apart,
What it meant to me, will,
Eventually, be a memory of a time when,

I tried so hard and got so far,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
To lose it all,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,

I've put my trust in you,
Pushed as far as I can go,
For all this,
There's only one thing you should know,

I've put my trust in you,
Pushed as far as i can go,
For all this,
There's only one thing you should know...

I tried so hard and got so far,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter,
I had to fall,
To lose it all,
But in the end,
It doesn't even matter

My favourite lyrics are from Anna Begins by Counting Crows. My two favourite lines are 'And every time she sneezes I believe it's love' and 'And every word is nonsense but I understand'

The whole song.....

My friend assures me "it's all or nothing"
I am not worried- I am not overly concerned
My friend implores me " for one time only,
make an exception." I am not not worried
Wrap her up in a package of lies
Send her off to a coconut island
I am not worried - I am not overly concerned
with the status of my emotions
"oh", She says, "you're changing."
But we're always changing
It does not bother me to say this isn't love
Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love
and I guess I'm going to have to live with that
but, I'm sure there's something in a shade of gray
or something in between
and I can always change my name if that's what you mean
My friend assures me "it's all or nothing`
But I am not really worried
I am not overly concerned
You try to tell yourself the things you try tell yourself to make
yourself forget
to make yourself forget
I am not worried
"If it's love" she said, "then we're gonna have to think about the
consequences"
cause she can't stop shaking and I can't stop touching her and.....
This time when kindness falls like rain
it washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind
"these seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering
for days" she says.
And I'm not ready for this sort of thing
But I'm not gonna break
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
I'm not gonna bend. And I'm not gonna break and
I'm not gonna worry about it anymore
It seems like I should say "as long as this is love..."
But it's not all that easy so maybe I should just
snap her up in a butterfly net-
Pin her down on a photograph album
I am not worried
I've done this sort of thing before
But then I start to think about the consequences
Because I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and...
The time when kindness falls like rain
it washes me away and Anna begins change my mind
And every time she sneezes I believe it's love
and oh lord.... I'm not ready for this sort of thing
She's talking in her sleep-it's keeping me awake
And Anna begins to toss and turn
And every word is nonsense but I understand and
oh lord. I m not ready for this sort of thing
Her kindness bangs a gong
It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away
It's chasing me away. She dissappears, and oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing

Oooh....so many choices!

Hard to pick an absolute favourite, as it depends upon how I feel at the time, but high up there would be :

'Hurt' - NiN / Johnny Cash
'Year of the Cat' Al Stewart
'Common People' - Pulp

They'll do for now.

Joe

I love song lyrics... you can say so much to a person through a song... or even a card... Words are so meaningful... I feel you can really express the innerself through them...

I have dedicated a couple of songs to my partner whilst listening to a cd or the radio... just find the words are so appropriate...

Our current song is 'These words' by Natasha Beddingfield no doubt there'll be more...

Do you nestle by my barstool
Makin' me so calm within
Have you touched me with your warmness
Or have I touched myself with gin?

cho: Are you drinkin' with me Jesus
I can't see you very clear
If you're drinkin' with me Jesus
Won't you buy a friend a beer?

If you're omnipresent, Jesus
You don't have to use the phone
If you're always by my side, Lord
You need never drink alone

Do you teeter with me, Jesus
On my way home so forlorn
If you think that you feel bad now
Wait until tomorrow morn

Does your head pound with the masses
As hungover you do rise
What does heaven look like, Jesus
Seen through holy bloodshot eyes

Should we take a taxi, Jesus
Should we try to walk from here
I know you can walk on water
Can you walk on this much beer?

I found this recently on a website and I'm trying to learn it on piano

From 'Black' by Pearl Jam

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be the sun
in somebody else's sky
But why? why? why?
Can't it be mine?

I love that song. So pasionate. (Sniffle)

Sorry it is so long but is essential reading/listening:

Nick Cave `Curse of Millhaven`

Album : Murder Ballads


I live in a town called Millhaven
And it's small and it's mean and it's cold
But if you come around just as the sun goes down
You can watch the whole town turn to gold
It's around about then that I used to go a-roaming
Singing La la la la La la la lie
All God's children they all gotta die
My name is Loretta but I prefer Lottie
I'm closing in on my fifteenth year
And if you think you have seen a pair of eyes more green
Then you sure didn't see them around here
My hair is yellow and I'm always a-combing
La la la la La la la lie
Mama often told me we all got to die
You must have heard about The Curse Of Millhaven
How last Christmas Bill Blake's little boy didn't come home
They found him next week in One Mile Creek
His head bashed in and his pockets full of stones
Well, just imagine all the wailing and moaning
La la la la La la la lie
Even little Billy Blake's boy, he had to die
Then Professor O'Rye from Millhaven High
Found nailed to his door his prize-winning terrier
Then next day the old fool brought little Biko to school
And we all had to watch as he buried her
His eulogy to Biko had all the tears a-flowing
La la la la La la la lie
Even God's little creatures, they have to die
Our little town fell into a state of shock
A lot of people were saying things that made little sense
Then the next thing you know the head of Handyman Joe
Was found in the fountain of the Mayor's residence
Foul play can really get a small town going
La la la la La la la lie
Even God's children all have to die
Then, in a cruel twist of fate, old Mrs Colgate
Was stabbed but the job was not complete
The last thing she said before the cops pronounced her dead
Was, "My killer is Loretta and she lives across the street!"
Twenty cops burst through my door without even phoning
La la la la La la la lie
The young ones, the old ones, they all gotta die
Yes, it is I, Lottie. The Curse Of Millhaven
I've struck horror in the heart of this town
Like my eyes ain't green and my hair ain't yellow
It's more like the other way around
I gotta pretty little mouth underneath all the foaming
La la la la La la la lie
Sooner or later we all gotta die
Since I was no bigger than a weavil they've been saying I was evil
That if "bad" was a boot that I'd fit it
That I'm a wicked young lady, but I've been trying hard lately
O **** it! I'm a monster! I admit it!
It makes me so mad my blood really starts a-going
La la la la La la la lie
Mama always told me that we all gotta die
Yeah, I drowned the Blakey kid, stabbed Mrs. Colgate, I admit
Did the handyman with his circular saw in his garden shed
But I never crucified little Biko, that was two junior high school psychos
Stinky Bohoon and his friend with the pumpkin-sized head
I'll sing to the lot, now you got me going
La la la la La la la lie
All God's children have all gotta die
There were all the others, all our sisters and brothers
You assumed were accidents, best forgotten
Recall the children who broke through the ice on Lake Tahoo?
Everyone assumed the "Warning" signs had followed them to the bottom
Well, they're underneath the house where I do quite a bit of stowing
La la la la La la la lie
Even twenty little children, they had to die
And the fire of '91 that razed the Bella Vista slum
There was the biggest ****-fight this country's ever seen
Insurance companies ruined, land lords getting sued
All cause of wee girl with a can of gasoline
Those flames really roared when the wind started blowing
La la la la La la la lie
Rich man, poor man, all got to die
Well I confessed to all these crimes and they put me on trial
I was laughing when they took me away
Off to the asylum in an old black Mariah
It ain't home, but you know, it's ****ing better than jail
It ain't such bad old place to have a home in
La la la la La la la lie
All God's children they all gotta die
Now I got shrinks that will not rest with their endless Rorschach tests
I keep telling them they're out to get me
They ask me if I feel remorse and I answer, "Why of course!
There is so much more I could have done if they'd let me!"
So it's Rorschach and Prozac and everything is groovy
Singing La la la la La la la lie
All God's children they all have to die
La la la la La la la lie
I'm happy as a lark and everything is fine
Singing La la la la La la la lie
Yeah, everything is groovy and everything is fine
Singing La la la la La la la lie
All God's children they gotta die

Some Led Zeppelin lyrics :D


KASHMIR

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face
Stars to fill my dreams
I am a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
Secret elders of a gentle race
This world is seldom seen
Talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed

BLACK DOG

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove
Ah, ah, child, way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, can't keep away.

And of course...

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah-ee-yeah
To be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying a stairway to heaven

:thumbsup: always makes me smile that

Eric Clapton- Tears In Heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?


I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.


Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?


I'll find my way
Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven.


Time can bring you down,
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart,
Have you begging please, begging please.


Beyond the door,
There's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven.


Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?


I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.

The Great Beyond - great track. Another one to add to my list: The Music - Welcome To The North (quite appropriate for me as it was played when I was up (t)here.

My time is empty
And I want, I want to break free
Their minds, your minds are always closed
But your mouths, your mouths are always open

You see, you can see, you see the numbers
You see, you can see, you see the numbers
You see, you can see, you see the numbers
You see, you can see, you see the numbers

Where I'm from
Is not who, who I am
But now I'm facing some questions
And they're not, not quite what I want

You know the numbers
Show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers
Show, show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers
Show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers

Welcome to the north
Welcome to the north
Welcome to the north
Oh welcome to the north

You know the numbers
Show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers
Show, show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers
Show me the knuckles baby
You know the numbers

Welcome to the north
Welcome to the north
Welcome to the north
Oh welcome to the north

I don't want this
When I come home
It's where I'm from
Yeah it's where I'm from
Yeah it's where I was born
Yeah it's where I'm from

You see, you see the numbers
You see, you see the numbers
You see, you see the numbers

Hard to pick an absolute favourite, as it depends upon how I feel at the time, but high up there would be :

'Hurt' - NiN / Johnny Cash
'Year of the Cat' Al Stewart
'Common People' - Pulp

They'll do for now.

I don't care cos I like you're style
Don't know about your brain but you look alright.

Not this Rainbow then??
Up above the streets and houses..rainbow climbing high,
Everyone can see it climbing over the sky...
Paint the whole world with a Rainbow

My favourite lyrics at the moment are in my signature.

What shall we do with the puppy dog's tails.
What shall we do with the bucket of snails.
what shall we do with a boy like you.
Put them in the pot and we chuck them on the FIRE!

80's Matchbox B LIne Disaster.
The Royal Society.

drag yourself to work,drug yourself to sleep..
all you young punks laugh know theres not much to cry for,all you young punks live life theres not much to die for....

talking to you is such a waste of time.just crawl back into your dustbin...

I used to be indecisive.
But now I'm not so sure.

Not favourite song as such, but from my favourite album of the moment - and given todays results in the American Presidential Elections, perhaps appropriate:-

Don't want to be an American Idiot
Don't want a nation under the new media
Can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mindf**k America

Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alienation
Where everything isn't meant to be okay
Television dreams of tomorrow
we're not the ones meant to follow
for that's enough to argue

Maybe I am the faggot America
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
now everybody do the propaganda
and sing along to the age of paranoia

Don't want to be an American Idiot
One nation controlled by the media
Information age of hysteria
calling out to idiot America

from American Idiot by Green Day

Favourite is from a Super Furry Animals song: -

"Going to use my time, just like Johan Cruyff"

Quality!

The songs "Smokin" off the "Spaced Out" album which was a collection of b-sides

PWEI X Y and ZEE
Classic!


I am he who is X Y and Zee
I carry no card my life is cheap
Have no worries I do not fret
Some may have what I'm yet to get
And you may wonder, "Is it how?"
A kitten may turn into a cow
With bells and horns and
Tinned corned beef
Forests, profits
Plastic High Streets
I am he who is A B and Cee
An easy option
Like twentieth century
Satisfaction guaranteed
It's easy!

Let's steal a spaceship and
Head for the sun and
Shoot the stars with
A lemonade ray gun
Make a movie and
A TV show
You be Jane
I'm George Jetson

CHORUS
I am you! You are me!
X Y Zee to A B Cee
You, Me, Us
We are one

>From out our window
We can see
Electric sunshine
Oxygen factories
Clockwork tides
Synthetic trees
Just like the real ones
On Vee Tee
Mother Nature and Father Time
Used to be good friends of mine
But now we've put them
In a home
Filed them under "uses unknown"
"No Pop? No style!"
Is a phrase out of phase
To praise what's worthwhile
This is as good as it gets
this is the best

Let's catch the last rays
Of civilisation and tune-in to a
Sub-space station
Turn up the DJ
Let's get lost in intergalactic
Punk rock hip hop

CHORUS

This is the time
The time of our lives
Escaping time
For the all time highs
Of love, lust, laughter
That make us sweat
Let's stimulate
Sensory amplification
This is PWEI-zation!
This is this
It's the living end
"Je t'aime! Encore! Je t'aime!"

CHORUS

61C Days Turned To Nights - Justin Sane

I`ll catch you again someday
on the streets of pittsburg pennsylvania
then again maybe not
where we can sit and remenisce
about our younger years
and how we`d stay in bed all day
when you should have been in class, then

then in the night
that light shown down upon you
made you look like the star that you were
then in the night
that light shown down upon you
made you look like the star that you are

daytime thoughts on those streets
through winter breezes freezing gusts of wind
cutting razors to my years
those bitter cold days cast your silhouette
angel like through the fogged up cafe glass
reality became a dream

then in the night
that light shown down upon you
made you look like the star that you were
yea, then in the night
that light shown down upon you
that light shown down upon you

driving you to the airport
watching you walk off to the
plane that did carry you away
you were too sad to look back to wave goodbye
so im not going to tell you what you missed
and im not going to tell myself
that i will never find you glowing in those lights again
cause i dont know if i will ever have that chance
but still i`ll never forget those days we had
and i`ll never forget those nights in the dark
in the pitch black moon light
the streets of this town are still cold
and still windy but the 61c doesnt feel the same
you said lets just leave it to fate
so i guess i`ll just have to leave it to fate
and wait and remember those days turned to nights

when in the night
that light shown down upon you
made you look liek the star that you were
when in the night
that light shown down upon you
yea...

Its late in the evening,
She's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make up
And brushses her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, do i look alright?
I said "yes" you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party,
and everyone turns to see
this beautiful lady
thats walking around with me
and then she asked me
do you feel alright
and i said yes,
i feel wonderful tonight

i feel wonderful, because i see the love right in your eyes
and the wonder of it all
Is that you just dont realise
How much I love youuuuu

It's time to go home now,
And i got an aching head,
So i give her the car keys
she helps me to bed
and then i tell her
as i turn off the light
i said my darling you were wonderful tonight

oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

LEGENDARY

Anything by Sting

Time for loving in the park
Wear a jumper when it gets dark
Mind the prickles
Mind the dew
Wash your willie when you're through

There's a pulse in the new-born sun;
A beat in the heat of noon;
There's a song as the day grows long,
And a tempo in the tides of the moon.
It's all around us and it's everywhere,
And it's deeper than Royal blue.
And it feels so real you can feel the feeling!

And that's The Majesty Of Rock!
The fantasy of Roll!
The ticking of the clock,
The wailing of the soul!
The prisoner in the dock,
The digger in the hole,
We're in this together...and ever...

In the shade of a jungle glade,
Or the rush of the crushing street,
On the plain, on the foamy main,
You can never escape from the beat.
It's in the mud and it's in your blood
And its conquest is complete.
And all that you can do is just surrender.

To the Majesty of Rock!
The Pageantry of Roll!
The crowing of the cock,
The running of the foal!
The shepherd with his flock,
The miner with his coal,
We're in this together...and ever...

When we die, do we haunt the sky?
Do we lurk in the murk of the seas?
What then? Are we born again?
Just to sit asking questions like these?
I know, for I told me so,
And I'm sure each of you quite agrees:
The more it stays the same, the less it changes!

And that's The Majesty Of Rock!
The Mystery of Roll!
The darning of the sock,
The scoring of the goal!
The farmer takes a wife
The barber takes a pole.
We're in this together...and ever...



Oh so profound ;)

Or even........


(Spoken)
In a hospital bed on the outskirts of town
Lay an old gray man in a soiled white gown.
His hair was all wispy, his eyes were a blank.
His breath came in spurts from an oxygen tank.
The nurse hovered near, and so did the Reaper.
But which had the number to his private beeper?
Shall he lie there forever with a tube up his nose
And his peepee and poopoo slipping out through a hose?
Or shall he be released to float towards the light?
Like a wee, baby doveling or a really good kite.

Let him go! Let him go!
It's too late for healing.
Put an end to the pain
That we know he is feeling.

His life is his burden
His death is his right.
Let's send him off gently
Into that good night.

(Spoken)
Goodnight

My favourite song lyrics:

Nirvana, 'Drain You' - "With eyes so dialated, I've become your pupil"

Patty Smith, '******* In A River' - "Should I pursue a path so twisted, should I crawl defeated and gifted. Should I go the length of the river, the royal, the throne, the cry me a river. Everything I've done I've done for your. Ohh, I'd give my life for you."

Sleater-Kinney, 'Sold Out' - "Sold out, do do you want it. On a magazine cover."

Captain Beefheart - When big joan sets up

hoy hoy
when big Joan comes out
her arms are too small
her head like uh ball
she tied off her horse
'n galloped off into the moonbeams
she pulled up her blouse
and compared her navel to the moon
I dig my life for uh while
when big Joan sets up
her hands are too small
she's too fat to go out in the daylght
so she rolls around all night
I'm just sorta thread
with uh drooped body
I'll set up with uh big Joan
I'm too fat t' go out in the daylight
I'll stay up all night
I won't droop if you
won't talk about your
hands bein' too small
you know somethings happenin'
or you wouldn't have come out like yuh did
she aint built for goin naked
so she can't wear any new clothes
or go t' the beach
they laugh at her body
cause her hands are too small
when big Joan sits up her hands are too small
she's outta reach
uh turquiose scarf n' uh sleeve
rolled up over her mert montclair
I'll sit up with yuh big Joan
I'm too fat to go out in the daytime
I'll stay up all night
if yuh promise not t' talk
about yer hands bein' too small
hoy hoy is she a boy?

class!

Subterranean Homesick Blues - Bob Dylan

Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D. A.
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try "No Doz"
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Either "I Know" by Fiona Apple...

So be it, I'm your crowbar
If that's what I am so far
Until you get out of this mess

And I will pretend
That I don't know of your sins
Until you are ready to confess
But all the time, all the time
I know, I know

And you can use my skin
To bury secrets in
And I will settle you down

And at my own suggestion
I will ask no questions
While I do my thing in the background
But all the time, all the time
I know, I know

Baby
I can't help you out
While she's still around

So for the time being
I'm being patient
And amidst the bitterness
If you'll just consider this
Even if it don't make sense
All the time, give it time

And when the crowd becomes your burden
And you've early closed your curtains
I'll wait by the backstage door

While you try to find
The lines to speak your mind
And pry it open, hoping for an encore
And if it gets too late
For me to wait
For you to find you love me, and tell me so
It's ok, don't need to say it.

Or "Tear in your Hand" by Tori Amos

all the world just stopped now
so you say you don't wanna stay together anymore
let me take a deep breath babe
if you need me, me and neil'll be
hangin' out with the DREAM KING

neil says hi by the way
i don't believe you're leaving cause
me and charles manson like the same ice cream
i think it's that girl
and i think there're pieces of me
you've never seen
maybe she's just pieces of me
you've never seen well

all the world is
all i am
the black of the blackest ocean
and that tear in your hand
all the world is DANGLIN'...
danglin'... danglin' for me DARLIN'
you don't know the power that you have
with that tear in your hand
that tear in your hand

maybe i ain't used to maybes
smashing in a cold room
cutting my hands up
every time i touch you
maybe maybe it's time
to wave goodbye now
time to wave goodbye now

caught a ride with the moon
i know i know you well
well better than i used to
HAZE all clouded up my mind
in the DAZE of the why
it could've never been
so you say and i say
you know you're full of wish
and your "baby baby baby babies"
i tell you there're pieces of me
you've never seen
maybe she's just pieces of me
you've never seen well

all the world is
all i am
the black of the blackest ocean
and that tear in your hand
all the world is DANGLIN'...
danglin'... danglin' for me DARLIN'
you don't know the power that you have
with that tear in your hand
that tear in your hand

with that tear in your hand
tear in

I highly recommend both of these songs!

:)

I've got two favourite bits of lyrics. The first from 'The Nightfly' by Donald Fagan.

I'm Lester the nightfly, hello Baton Rouge
Could you turn your radio down?
Respect the seven second delay we use
So you say there's a race of men in the trees
You're for tough legislation
Thanks for calling - we wait all night for calls like these

The other from a Dire Straits (!) song called 'Lions', I think. It's about the lions in Trafalgar Square, there's a lovely little throwaway line which goes,

The starlings are tough, but the lions are made of stone.

Check these out for amazing lyrics, one of the greatest political songs ever, big dis to Mr Bush.

You need to hear this song, it by Bright Eyes


when the president talks to god
are the conversations brief or long?
does he ask to rape our womens' rights
or to send poor farm kids off to die?
will the president reccomend an oil hike
when the president talks to god?

when the president talks to god
are the words he chooses hard or soft?
does he resolute all down the line?
is every issue black or white?
does what god say ever change his mind
when the president talks to god?

when the president talks to god
does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
agree which convicts should be killed?
where the prison's built and filled?
which voter fraud must be concealed
when the president talks to god?

when the president talks to god
I wonder which one plays the better cop
we should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke
no, they're lazy, George, I say we don't
just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke
that's what god reccomends

when the president talks to god
do they drink beer and go play golf
when they pick which country should we invade
and which heathen souls still can be saved?
yeah I guess god just calls a spade a spade
when the president talks to god

when the president talks to god
does he ever think that maybe he's not?
that that voice is just inside his head
when he kneels next to the presidential bed
does he ever smell his own bull****
when the president talks to god?

Probably My Favourite Lyrics Come From Metallica's Cover Version Of "So What".It Might Not Be The Most Deep Song Ever Written,But It Always Puts A Smile On My Face When I Hear It.
If You're Familiar With The Song You'll Know Why I Can't List The Lyrics,(Bad Taste,Bad Language,Bad Everything Really),But I'm Sure You Could Find Them Somewhere On A Metallica Lyrics Website.Check It Out,Even Better-Buy Yerself A Copy Of The Song-Beltin' Tune! :headbang:

Here is one of my faves at the minute

I'll get a job in a bar
you could be a waitress
and serve cheap cigars
to fat moustachioed
men in suits
you'd look cute

F*** what they say
F*** if they talk
It really don't matter
were going to New York

The wonderful lyrics of Stephen Fretwell - New York

"Well they said you are as good as you look but that would be impossible.
For you look better than the face of God on a sunny day."

James-How was it for you?

Sellout - The Levellers, sums up my opinions on world politics better than I ever could.

The year was 1991, it seems that freedom is dead and gone
The power of the rich is held by few
Keep the young paralyzed, educated by your lies
Keep the old ones happy with the news
Tell the singer not to song his song
Tell the poet that she's wrong
And in the courts you'll win the case with lies
Cos you sold them down the river-o

Do I belong to some ancient race
I like to walk in ancient places
These are things that I can understand
I don't believe in your modern way
Don't care about the things you say
Your policies have failed the test of time
Cos you sold them down the river-o

Now in a land not far away, there's men in prison because they say
The colour of your skin is not a question
Did you rally to their side
No, you sat back and let them die
I don't know how you get to sleep at night

Your money market goes round and round
The pound goes up, the dollar goes down
You need the power for your new towns
Cos you get scared when the night comes down
Won't you tell me where it is that we are bound

"Its like meeting the man of your dreams and then meeting his beautiful wife" happens all the time.

Come down and waste away with me
Down with me
Slow how you wanted it to be
Over my head, out of my head she sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She said

Breathe out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in

Foo Fighters - Everlong.

Has to be the Modfather himself. Its more like poetry.


And I’m down in the tube station at midnight
I fumble for change - and pull out the queen
Smiling, beguiling
I put in the money and pull out a plum
Behind me
Whispers in the shadows - gruff blazing voices
Hating, waiting
Hey boy they shout - have you got any money?
And I said - I’ve a little money and a take away curry,
I’m on my way home to my wife.
She’ll be lining up the cutlery,
You know she’s expecting me
Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork
And I’m down in the tube station at midnight

I first felt a fist, and then a kick
I could now smell their breath
They smelt of pubs and wormwood scrubs
And too many right wing meetings
My life swam around me
It took a look and drowned me in it’s own existence
The smell of brown leather
It blended in with the weather
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth
It blocked all my senses
Couldn’t see, hear, speak any longer

I agree with the levellers posts though. They really summed up a era.

From the movie "Casablanca"

You must remember this, a kiss is just a kiss,'
A sigh is just a sigh,
The fundamental things apply, as time goes by.
And when two lovers woo, they still say "I love you,"
on that you can rely,
No matter what the future brings, as time goes by.
Moonlight and love songs, never out of date,
Hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate,
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate,
there's no one can deny.
It's still the same old story, a fight for love and glory,
A case of do or die,
The world will always welcome lovers, as time goes by.

Smiths - How Soon is Now....

There’s a club, if you’d like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die

Also, Smiths - That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore...

It was dark as I drove the point home
And on cold leather seats
Well, it suddenly struck me
I just might die with a smile on my face after all

They just kinda make me laugh and cry, all at the same time.

Not one of my favourite lyrics but certainly reminds you what is important -

"I've got good lungs, I've got a good Heart. My mind is fit and my feet can walk" - Stereophonics.

. ha ha ha. It is top drawer stuff, been listening to em in my van. Quality. Can,t think of mine off hand but that must be close :hihi:

The twitching impulses to speak your mind.
I'll lend you my microscope, and maybe you will find it.
Is it in that ugly place that's just behind your face?
Where you keep my picture still, despite the fact that you had me replaced.

Elvis Costello. 'All The Rage'.

People say I'm the life of the party
Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue

So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
Just look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you

Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute she's just a substitute
'Cause you're the permanent one

Outside, I'm masquerading
Inside, my hope is fading
Just a clown, oh yeah since you put me down
My smile is my make-up I wear since my break-up with you

Smokey Robinson

there are loads i love!

The one that makes me laugh is Basement Jaxx 'Oh My Gosh'

'did you get his number ? No

did you get his name ? errrrrrr'

It's Mistletoe and Wine by Cliff Richard.

And no, I'm not sad... I've inherited a liking for Cliff off my Mum.

"I was a young boy that had big plans,
Now i'm just another $h*@ty old man
I don't have fun and i hate everything
The world Owes Me So F@"! you..."

Reminds me of one of my mates!

Hopefully it's "gifts on the tree..." :hihi:

Thought that I?d be happy
Going to be so happy
Living life alone and never sharing anything

Thought that I was finished
Thought that I was complete
Thought that I was whole instead of being half of something

Thought that I was growing
Growing older, wiser
Understanding why this world held nothing for my spirit

Thought that I was destined
Destined to be nothing
Destined to be nothing in this world and then I met you.

I met you

Thought that God had failed me
Thought my prayers were useless
Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him

Thought the book was written
Thought the game had ended
Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another

Thought my faith was misplaced
Thought my back was broken
Broken by a weight that I was never fit to carry

Thought I knew this city
Thought I knew all about it
And then one night I went to morningside and you were waiting

I met you
the procliamers

The best lyrics I've heard for a while are in Willy Masons "Oxygen".


I wanna be better than oxygen
So you can breathe when you're drowning and weak in the knees
I wanna speak louder than Ritalin
For all the children who think that they've got a disease
I wanna be cooler than t.v.
For all the kids that are wondering what they are going to be
We can be stronger than bombs
If you're singing along and you know that you really believe
We can be richer than industry
As long as we know that there's things that we don't really need
We can speak louder than ignorance
Cause we speak in silence every time our eyes meet.

On and on, and on, and on it goes
The world it just keeps spinning
Until i'm dizzy, time to breathe
So close my eyes and start again anew.

I wanna see through all the lies of society
To the reality, happiness is at stake
I wanna hold up my head with dignity
Proud of a life where to give means more than to take
I wan't to live beyond the modern mentality
Where paper is all that you're really taught to create
Do you remember the forgotten America?
Justice, equality, freedom to every race?
Just need to get past all the lies and hypocrisy
Make up and hair to the truth behind every face
That look around to all the people you see,
How many of them are happy and free?
I know it sounds like a dream
But it's the only thing that can get me to sleep at night
I know it's hard to believe
But it's easy to see that something here isn't right
I know the future looks dark
But it's there that the kids of today must carry the light.

On and on, and on, and on it goes
The world it just keeps spinning
Until i'm dizzy, time to breathe
So close my eyes and start again anew.

If i'm afraid to catch a dream
I weave your baskets and i'll float them down the river stream
Each one i weave with words i speak to carry love to your relief.

"This is the end...my beutifull friend...The end"


by The Doors, such power!!!

Another one, can't remember title or artist, but here goes:


"Life goes on, long after the thrill of living as gone"


i think it was from a song called "Jack and Dianne"

i used to live on chocolate sauce
made sumo wrestlers look like kate moss
walked down an alley and got stuck
i got more rolls than a pastry truck

any1 know what song that is and who sung it? i think its proper ace :thumbsup:

mis shape, mis stakes, mis fits..

raised on a diet of broken biscuits..


pulp - misshapes

From Wichita Lineman

"and I need you more than want you, but I want you for all time..."

I love that song...

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds,
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Lovers they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand Up and be Counted, don't be ashamed to cry.

Or something like that anyway.

Not a bit Des'ree fan but those lyrics always make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck

anyone a pink floyd fan?

think my dad is :hihi:

He's a real nowhere man,
living in his nowhere land
making all his nowhere plans,
for nobody.

The Beatles (I think)

I always felt this song has a sort of resonence.

"Open the door Jehova you whore" by decide. Cant remember the title of the song.

They have another line which is "kill the christians"

Maybe they aren't church goers:suspect:

Not a case of my favourite band but funny lyrics in an anti christ kind of way:D You need to listen as to why they always stick in my mind!

'In the desert, you can remember your name'.
From America's single 'Horse with no name', of the early seventies. Well, okay, I admit it is not on par with Schubert's lieder, but the line is a powerful one. Maybe I will end up in 'Pseud's corner' for this, but the song is essentially an existential cry of pain. It reminds us of our essential 'alone-ness'. Nobody, not even our closest loved ones, can truly understand how we feel. This is particularly tragic in relation to human pain and grief, in fact the tragedy of the human condition itself.

The composer Edgard Varese once said that alongside physical deserts [sand, snow, even the oceans] there are 'deserts in the minds of men', which 'no telescope can reach'. This line seems to be making the same point, albeit more succinctly. Oh alright, I'll get my coat...

I love the lyrics to "In My Life" by John lennon
There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more

I am also moved by the lyrics from a Doctor Hook Track

"More like the movies"

the chorus goes

"I wish I could've helped you see
Just one of your sweet childhood dreams
But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true

And I wish I could have made it
More like the movies for you
Some pretty Technicolor way it's never been
I'm sorry when I kissed you
You only heard me whisper
You never got to hear those violins
Did you girl?
No you never got to hear those violins

Oh I'm sorry when I kissed you
You only heard me whisper
You never got to hear those violins
No you never got to hear those violins


and "Living Years", by Mike and the Mechanics, always makes me want to cry.

PT

Hot off the press... lovely lyrics... (soppy bitch! :) ) plus thought some girls might want the words to sing along... :wink:

After coming out of a long term relationship this song hits a nerve!

James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover Lyrics

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Such beautiful lyrics... can very much understand why that hit a nerve... very touching song i'm sure... not heard it... will have to look out for that one... :)

Great song from the Pussy cat dolls! nice lyrics too...

"Stickwitu"

I don't want to go another day
So I'm telling you exactly what is on my mind
Seems like everybody is breaking up
Throwing their love away
I know I got a good thing right here
That's why I say (Hey)

Nobody's going to love me better
Ima stick with you
Forever
Nobody's going to take me higher
Ima stick with you
You know how to appreciate me
Ima stick with you
My baby
Nobody ever made me feel this way
Ima stick with you

I don't want to go another day
So I'm telling you exactly what is on my mind
See the way we ride
In our private lives
Ain't nobody getting in between
I want you to know that you're the only one for me
And I say

Nobody's going to love me better
Ima stick with you
Forever
Nobody's going to take me higher
Ima stick with you
You know how to appreciate me
Ima stick with you
My baby
Nobody ever made me feel this way
Ima stick with you

And now
Ain't nothing else I can need
And now
I'm singing 'cause you're so, so into me
I got you
We'll be making love endlessly
I'm with you
Baby, you're with me

So don't you worry about
People hanging around
They ain't bringing us down
I know you and you know me
And that's all that counts
So don't you worry about
People hanging around
They ain't bringing us down
I know you and you know me
And that's why I say

Nobody's going to love me better
Ima stick with you
Forever
Nobody's going to take me higher
Ima stick with you
You know how to appreciate me
Ima stick with you
My baby
Nobody ever made me feel this way
Ima stick with you

Nobody's going to love me better
Ima stick with you
Forever
Nobody's going to take me higher
Ima stick with you
You know how to appreciate me
Ima stick with you
My baby
Nobody ever made me feel this way
Ima stick with you

My favourite lyrics depend on what mood I'm in but here are some:

Arctic Monkeys "Fake Tales of San Francisco"

"He talks of San Francisco, he's from Hunter's Bar
I don't quite know the distance
But I'm sure that's far
Yeah I'm sure that's pretty far"

And I know that these lyrics might be a little cheesy or whatever but they're perfect for how I'm feeling at the moment.

Avril Lavigne "Things I'll Never Say"

"If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down--on one knee
Marry me today
Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say"

Here are a couple that can always choke me up when I hear them;

Thinking out loud is all I'm doing
Trying to raise my love above these ruins
With each song, I kick it around
Thinking…

My love, I can tell there's a load on your mind
If we poured ourselves like this bottle of wine
And let it flow we'll figure it out
Thinking out loud

But it's hard to think with all the racket
Going on inside our heads
All this worrying's getting us nowhere
Let's go somewhere instead

Just thinking out loud, is it all we're good for
Trying to raise our love but always falling short
Heaven knows what it's all about
Thinking out loud
With each song I kick it around
Thinking out loud

Ron Sexsmith - Thinking Out Loud




Across the evening sky, all the birds are leaving
But how can they know it's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Ah, but then you know it's time for them to go
But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

And I am not alone while my love is near me
I know it will be so until it's time to go
So come the storms of winter and then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?


Fairport Convention - Who Knows Where The Time Goes?

Funny how counting crows have been mentioned more than once because they did a very passable cover of Joni's "Big yellow taxi" !
Meaningful "save the planet lyrics if you ever heard them :
"They paved paradise put up a parking lot...........................Hey farmer ,farmer put away your DDT, I don't mind spots on my apples, leave me the birds and the bees!!

The Doors-"The End"
Lyrics

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land

Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the King's highway, baby
Weird scenes inside the gold mine
Ride the highway west, baby

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
The snake is long, seven miles
Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold

The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here, and we'll do the rest

The blue bus is callin' us
The blue bus is callin' us
Driver, where you taken' us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...I want to...**** you

C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
C'mon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin' a blue rock
C'mon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

Joni Mitchell - Refuge Of The Roads (from the album Hejira)


I met a friend of spirit
He drank and womanized
And I sat before his sanity
I was holding back from crying
He saw my complications
And he mirrored me back simplified
And we laughed how our perfection
Would always be denied
"Heart and humor and humility"
He said "Will lighten up your heavy load"
I left him for the refuge of the roads

I fell in with some drifters
Cast upon a beachtown
Winn Dixie cold cuts and highway hand me downs
And I wound up fixing dinner
For them and Boston Jim
I well up with affection
Thinking back down the roads to then
The nets were overflowing
In the Gulf of Mexico
They were overflowing in the refuge of the roads

There was spring along the ditches
There were good times in the cities
Oh, radiant happiness
It was all so light and easy
Till I started analyzing
And I brought on my old ways
A thunderhead of judgment was
Gathering in my gaze
And it made most people nervous
They just didn't want to know
What I was seeing in the refuge of the roads

I pulled off into a forest
Crickets clicking in the ferns
Like a wheel of fortune
I heard my fate turn, turn turn
And I went running down a white sand road
I was running like a white-assed deer
Running to lose the blues
To the innocence in here
These are the clouds of Michelangelo
Muscular with gods and sungold
Shine on your witness in the refuge of the roads

In a highway service station
Over the month of June
Was a photograph of the earth
Taken coming back from the moon
And you couldn't see a city
On that marbled bowling ball
Or a forest or a highway
Or me here least of all
You couldn't see these cold water restrooms
Or this baggage overload
Westbound and rolling taking refuge in the roads

For it's wit and 'cos it's this time of year;

Black Grape - Kellys Heroes

"Jesus was a black man,
No, Jesus was Batman,
No No No, that was Bruce Wayne!"

112 - Only You




Je-sus the notorious just
Please us with your lyrical thesis
We just chillin milk em top billin
Silk and pure linen, me and little Ceas
Malibu sea breeze, Dom P's, palm trees,
Cats lay low like Paublo in milked out diablos
The Williest, bitches be the silliest
The more I smoke, the smaller the phillie gets
Room 112 where the players dwell
To stash more cash than Burn and Hale
Inhale make you feel godd like Tony Toni Tone (feels good)
dig up in your middle like Monie (yeah)
Don't know but your settin up to blow me
Try to style, Fly up north with a homey (Yes)
It's style is dondatta
Playas stay splurgin' game so tight they call it virgin


Oh I need to know where we stand
Do we share this special thing called love
I know I do, what about you
I just can't get enough of the time
I need you in my life
Where do we go
What do I do
I can't live without your love
Thinkin' of you, makes me feel
Like I am the only one for you
Girl I want to be with you
No one else, only you
Why can't we just make it happen
Baby, I need you in my life
Every time I'm with you
Never want it to come to an end
(thought I told you that we won't stop)
You always make me so happy
You'll always have a place in my heart
I need you in my life
Where do we go
What do I do
Cause I can't live without your love
Thinkin' of you, makes me feel
Like I am the only one for you


Now you can hum all you want to
Cum all you want to
Money I'm a front you
Girl I wanna flaunt you
I'm always want you
when nobody wants you
If I die now my love will still haunt you
Mase ain't the one that will pay for your phone
Mase be the one that will take you home
Even though I'm not the one that gave you the stone
All you nights alone I could make you moan
Everybody know I got more bounce than the ounce
Bad boy get more money than you can count
Why I'm buying things you can't even pronounce
I'd do it to your cat for a large amount
And when the beef come you know where to be found
Why I be around till the winner is announced (*Puff : The winner is...*)
So there ya go girl with thousands in ya palms
Why you can't let by gones be by gones


Where do we go
What must I do
If I can't live without your love
Thinkin' of you, makes me feel, baby
Like I am the only one for you
Girl I want to be with you
No one else, only you
Why can't we just make it happen
Baby, I need you in my life

May already have been posted but I love Fairytale of New York by the Pogues and Kirsty Macall,

It was christmas eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won’t see another one
And then he sang a song
The rare old mountain dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I’ve got a feeling
This year’s for me and you
So happy christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They’ve got cars big as bars
They’ve got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It’s no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold christmas eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of new york city
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging,
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the nypd choir
Were singing galway bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

You’re a bum
You’re a punk
You’re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your arse
I pray God it’s our last

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can’t make it all alone
I’ve built my dreams around you

Chili Peppers - Around the world

" Good god girl, I wish I knew ya "

Oh and this is the only song that has ever managed to make me cry, and somewhat bizarrely, it's Dry Your Eyes by The Streets:

In one single moment your whole life can turn 'round
I stand there for a minute starin' straight into the ground
Lookin' to the left slightly, then lookin' back down
World feels like it's caved in - proper sorry frown
Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us
I can change and I can grow or we could adjust
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust
We can even have an open relationship, if you must
I look at her she stares almost straight back at me
But her eyes glaze over like she's lookin' straight through me
Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity
When they open up she's lookin' down at her feet

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

So then I move my hand up from down by my side
It's shakin', my life is crashin' before my eyes
Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh
'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me
There's things I can't imagine doin', things I can't imagine seein'
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely
Please, please, I beg you please
She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested
She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she's blessed with
She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures
By pushin' my hand away to my chest, from hers

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

And I'm just standin' there, I can't say a word
'Cause everythin's just gone
I've got nothin'
Absolutely nothin'

Tryin' to pull her close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around her tryin' to change what she's sayin'
Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in
Look into her eyes to make her listen again
I'm not gonna f*****', just f*****' leave it all now
'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow
And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You're well out of order now, this is well out of town
She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist
Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight
Turns around so she's now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

I know in the past I've found it hard to say
Tellin' you things, but not tellin' straight
But the more I pull on your hand and say
The more you pull away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now.

Smiths - I Know it's Over:

Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
Oh well. Enough said.
I know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Oh ...
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
See, the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
Do you think you can help me ?
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
Handsome groom, give her room
Loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
(Though she needs you
More than she loves you)
And I know it's over - still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Over and over and over and over
Over and over, la ...
I know it's over
And it never really began
But in my heart it was so real
And you even spoke to me, and said :
"If you're so funny
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
And if you're so clever
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very entertaining
Then why are you on your own tonight ?
If you're so very good-looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight ?
I know ...
'Cause tonight is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own tonight
With your triumphs and your charms
While they're in each other's arms..."
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
Over, over, over, over
It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes guts to be gentle and kind
Over, over
Love is Natural and Real
But not for you, my love
Not tonight, my love
Love is Natural and Real
But not for such as you and I, my love
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my ...
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can even feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my ...

Foo Fighters - Everlong

Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong

Tonight
I throw myself into
And out of the red, out of her head she sang

Come down
And waste away with me
Down with me

Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang

Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in

And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang

And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang


Love that song.

Slipknot - Vermillion Pt.2


she seemed dressed in all of me
stretched across my shame
all the torment and the pain
leaked thru and colored me
id do anything to have her to myself
just to have her for myself
now i dont know what to do
i dont know what to do
when she makes me sad

she is everything to me
the unrequited dream
the song that no one sings
the unattainable
she's a myth that i have to beleive in
all i need to make it real is one more reason
i dont know what to do
i dont know what to do
when she makes me sad

but i wont let this build this inside me
i wont let this build up inside me
i wont let this build up inside me
i wont let this build up inside me

a catch in my throat
choke
torn into pieces
i wont
no
i dont want to be this
but i wont let this build up inside me
i wont let this build up inside me
i wont let this build up inside me
i wont let this build up inside me

(i wont let this build up inside me)
(wont let this build up inside me)

she isnt real
i cant make her real
she isnt real
i cant make her real

Crowded House - Fall at your feet


I’m really close tonight
And I feel like I’m moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And I think that I’m beginning to know her
Let it go
I’ll be there when you call

And whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

You’re hiding from me now
There’s something in the way that you’re talking
Words don’t sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you, go
I’ll be waiting when you call

Hey and whenever I fall at your feet
Won’t you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I’m more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall

Whenever I fall at your feet
Would you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall, ever I fall

The Loyaliser by The Fatima Mansions

The model volcano by the giant gas-tank
the street corner gun-market next to the robbed bank
The poorhouse next to the Uniroyal palace
A tower of riches, beside it the abyss

Sit in the gridlock, under the stopped clock
long for a new taste? suck on a breeze-block
your brain is a doughnut, your spirit's a dry cup
This place has the poison to fill them all right up
Lockdown London, Lockdown London.
Lockdown London - headbutt the pebble-dash.

The girl with the bit nails and fondness for blackmail
you made her a secret, now she knows she can't fail
Your weakness was known well, she earned her a bombshell
Her life's worth of grievance now hangs from your coat tails

The little drummer-boy sadly (though eloquent) bitches
Too old for the bluff game or overnight riches
He meets with your pen friend, they speak of your badness
And compose a duet: sounds like Tarzan and Callas

I've been a victimizer and I've been victimized
I've been a sly betrayer who has been demonized
I've been an instrument of all I hate
So here's to all you absent leeches - safe
I'm not around to hear you pious speeches
While you're waiting for a date from the loyaliser.

Waiting for a date from the loyaliser
Crying for a sign from the loyaliser
Time's always on the side of the loyaliser
Into thinner air with the loyaliser
You get older, you get scared but you get no wiser.

Now you must
Adjust your ears to the sound of trouble
Getting louder and louder and louder and louder
forget the "like-with-like" now there is only other
as the walls begin to buckle and to turn into powder

Cowed figures under railway arches
wait for the coming storm
They've already seen your great provider.
In his true bloodthirsty human form
Time to et criminal-minded, take any way out when you find it
And those who stay do so because they're blinded
No light at all when you're waiting for a date from the loyaliser

Waiting for a date from the loyaliser
Crying for a sign from the loyaliser
Time's always on the side of the loyaliser
Into thinner air with the loyaliser
You get older, you get scared but you get no wiser.

Lockdown London, etc.

Love that song.


Me too, so I won't bother posting the lyrics seeing as you already have! Singing it along with Dave Grohl and several thousand others a couple of weeks ago at Manchester was a great experience - the highlight of the gig!

Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains ??????

Shakira - Whenever, wherever:loopy: :loopy: :loopy:

Jay - Z feat Beyonce - '03 Bonnie 'n Clyde

Look for me! Young, B
Cruisin down the westside - high, way
Doing what we like to do - our, way
Eyes behind shades, this necklace the reason
all of my dates been blind dates
But today, I got my thoroughest girl wit me
I'm mashin the gas, she's grabbin the wheel, it's true to the heart
She rides with me - the new Bobby and Whitney
Only time we don't speak is during "Sex and the City"
She gets Carrie fever, but soon as the show is over
She's right back to being my soldier
Cuz mami's a rider, and I'm a roller
Put us together, how they gon' stop both us?
What ever she lacks, I'm right over her shoulder
When I'm off track mami is keepin me focused
So let's, lock this down like it's supposed to be
The '03 Bonnie and Clyde, Hov' and B
Holla


Chorus]
[Jay] All I need in this life of sin, is me and my girlfriend.
[Bey] Down to ride 'til the very end, it's me and my boyfriend.
[Jay] All I need in this life of sin, is me and my girlfriend.
[Bey] Down to ride 'til the very end, it's me and my boyfriend.


The problem is, you dudes treat the one that you lovin
with the same respect that you treat the one that you humpin
Now they 'bout nothin - if ever you mad about somethin
It won't be that; oh no it won't be that
I don't be at, places where we comfy at
With no be-atch; oh no you won't see that
And no, I ain't perfect - nobody walkin this earth's surface is
But girlfriend, work with the kid
I keep you workin that Hermes Birkin bag,
manolo blahnik Timbs, aviator lens
600 drops, her-cedes Benz
The only time you wear Burberry to swim
And I don't have to worry, only worry is him
She do anything necessary for him
And I do anything necessary for her
so don't let the necessary occur, yep!


If I was your girlfriend
I'll be there for you, if somebody hurts you
Even if that somebody was me
Yeah-hee (break it down for 'em)
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
And so I put this on my life
Nobody or nothing will ever come between us
And I promise I'll give my life
my love and my trust if you was my boyfriend
Put this on my life
The air that I breathe in, all that I believe in
I promise I'll give my life
my love and my trust if you was my boyfriend

(why-Avril lavigne)

Why, do you always do this to me?
Why, couldn't you just see through me?
How come, you act like this
Like you just don't care at all

Do you expect me to believe I was the only one to fall?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

Hey, listen to what we're not saying
Let's play, a different game than what we're playing
Try, to look at me and really see my heart

Do you expect me to believe I'm gonna let us fall apart?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even when you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

So go and think about whatever you need to think about
Go on and dream about whatever you need to dream about
And come back to me when you know just how you feel, you feel
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me

It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

No, his mind is not for rent
To any God or government.
Always hopeful, yet discontent,
He knows changes aren?t permanent,
But change is?.

from ?Tom Sawyer? by Rush

Not my favourite lyrics, but I just find them funny

Khia - My Neck, My Back

All you ladies pop your p*ssy like this
Shake your body, don't stop, don't miss
All you ladies pop your p*ssy like this
Shake your body, don't stop, don't miss
Just do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
Lick it good suck this p*ssy, just like you should
Right now, Lick it good
suck this p*ssy just like you should
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack,

My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack

First you gotta put your neck into it
Don't stop, just do, do it
Then you roll your tongue, from the crack back to the front
then suck it off til I shake and cum
make sure I keep bustin nuts
all over your face and stuff
slow head show me so much love
the best head comes from a thug
the d*ck good d*ck big and long
slow ****in til the crack of dawn
on the edge makin faces n stuff
Through the night, making so much love
Dead sleep when the sun comes up

So, lick it now, lick it good
Lick this p*ssy just like you should
Right now, lick it good
Lick this p*ssy just like you should

[Chorus]
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack

You might roll dubs, you might have G's
But **** that, get on your knees
A bitch like me moans and screams
Thug misses know what I mean
At the club so fresh, so clean
Hoes hatin' them watchin' me
So hot in the line, on green
With a unit on my face, so mean
I gotta pick which man I need
to suck a thug man satisfy me
Try me man I'll make you see
them bitches aint got sh*t on me

So, lick it now, lick it good
Lick this p*ssy just like you should
Right now, lick it good
Lick this p*ssy just like you should
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack

So, lick it now, lick it good
Suck this p*ssy just like you should
Right now, lick it good
Suck this p*ssy just like you should

My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack
My Neck, my back
Lick my p*ssy and my crack

Weller, Heaton and jones are the best contemporary writers of lyrics.

I saw you today, or at least I think it was
It's hard to say, we've all changed so much -
Compelled to look, but I hid my face
It's hard to trace - these feelings
Gone so soon, the time I spent with you
And like an old, old tune-keeps running through my head-
I wanted to say, so many things
But my mouth went dry - and one word & I'd cry.

Slender bride, your beauty shines from you
And forever more, I'll be on your side for sure -
A light in your life, that always burns for you
As time passes.... so quickly.

The final stage, we've both reached some way
As we board our trains to different stations
And the parts we play, and the things we say,
Words on the way - to discovery

Woman In The Wall
He was just a social drinker but social every night
He enjoyed a pint or two or three or four
She was just a silent thinker, silent every night
He'd enjoy the thought of killing her before
Well he was very rarely drunk but very rarely sober
And he didn't think the problem was his drink
But he only knew his problem when he knocked her over
And when the rotting flesh began to stink
Cry freedom for the woman in the wall
Cry freedom for she has no voice at all
I hear her cry all day, all night
I hear her voice from deep within the wall
Made a cross from knitting needles
Made a grave from Hoover bags
Especially for the woman in the wall
She'd knitted him a jumper with dominoes on
So he wore it everyday in every week
Pretended to himself that she hadn't really gone
Pretended that he thought he beard her speak
Then at last it seemed that he was really winning
He felt that he had some sort of grip
But all of his new life was sent a-spinning
When the rotting wall began to drip


A weeks too long, not to ring
Re-colours her hair, and waits for him
Not cat against dog, just head over heels
Sex twice a day, best time in years
Oh no, why hasn't he phoned?
She has to wait until he's on his own
Lying and Denying so nobody knows
I'll tell her this week is what he tells
Her to keep her on loan
He'll buy her one day

Sex drives, oral highs, cheating wife's spouse
Cream cakes, coffee days, throwing gifts, goodbye
Pass the way for the day had a change of kind
Sex change, too mundane for the average mind
Oh no, she just can't see
Where he is and where he's been
Looked prim and straight
Like she's always been

All that she saved for went missing again
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
It looks like, It looks like, It looks like the worlds gone wrong

They found a body in the lake
maybe it wasn't really his name
Same colour, same weight, same size feet
It's the not knowing that kills you
Oh no the clocks stopped slow, everytime you're on your own
ya' hide from the spies so nobody knows
Scratch through the pages on the lazy days news for a clue
Still looking for you

I could have picked a number of different songs from all of these.
Some extra little favourite bits.

if i had myself a flying giraffe
you'd have one in a box with a window

he was walking 'round to you one said
french afternoon so he called in to a shop
for two he brought himself an ice drink a
totally tropical nice drink then he saw
what he thought was you in a room he
tought about goin' over but you were
always much older abd your sex dressed
breasts impressed too he'd really like to
get it together before the twelve of never
so he's coming over


I'd like to know what it's all about?
What's out there?
Am I gonna get old and laugh?
About something
Will I get me a boy or a girl?
Or not either?
Will I get what I want from this world?
I'm a day dreamer

It doesn't matter if we never meet again,
What we have said will always remain.
If we get through for two minutes only,
It will be a start!
For knowing that someone in this life,
Loves with a passion called hate
And what you give is what you get.

Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight -
Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude -

Better stop dreaming of the quiet life -
cos it's the one we'll never know
And quit running for that runaway bus -
cos those rosey days are few
And - stop apologising for the things you've never done,
Cos time is short and life is cruel -
but it's up to us to change
This town called malice.

Now you're older and I look at your face
Every wrinkle is so easy to place
And I only write them down just in case
That you die

lol i like lyrics.

from the all time classic 'who put the bomp' by the viscounts......
(spoken)
darlin.. bomp a ba bomp a bomp....
my honey.. rama lama ding dong... forever...
and when I say.. dih dih dih dih dih dih dih dih....
you'll know I mean it.....
from the bottom of my boogedy, boogedy, boogedy shooooooo!

And i would do whatever in no time

With the rims to match
Phone attached

Niggas Look at me like now here you go
Really bout to blow some doe
But ain't nobody did it before so why is you so go hold it

And everybody know now what Im tryna do

Down down around
Atlanta Lanta
Fah Found
Im just tryna get you to
LET ME HOLD YOU

[Chorus]

There are a few other songs that I seem to be skipping forward to...

I'm liking:

Destiny's Child - Stand up for love
For when I'm sulking, or need inspiring... It tends to lift my mood a bit :)


There are times I find it hard to sleep at night
We are living through such trouble times
And every child that reaches out
For someone to hold
For one moment
They become my own

And how can I pretend that I don't know
What's going on?
When every second
And every minute
Another soul is gone

And I believe that in my life
I will see
An end to hopelessness
Or giving up
Or suffering

Then we all stand together this one time
Then no one will get left behind
And stand up for life
Stand up
And here me sing
Stand up
For love


Brandy - Who is she to you?
For the words I couldn't find a few months ago.


No matter how hard you try you can't hide it
There's no way you can deny it, oh no no
Then you wanna flip and call me insecure
I'm only buggin' because you are so suspicious


Brandy feat Kanye West - Talk about our love

What'd you hear this time?
Go on and speak your mind
I know somebody's lyin'
It's always somethin'
Her auntie told your cousin
Then all your homies jumped in
And the whole hood's buzzin'
Then he said, she said
Don't let it get in ya head
Baby don't say
Somethin' that you will regret
I'm on your team
It's us against them you'll see
Hey, hey, hey
They ain't gon' stop
They just want what we got

Chorus:

The more they talk about our love
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
How can they talk about our love
(When they don't know)
When they don't know one thing about
(Us)
And then they just runnin' they mouths
(So)
All we do is tune them out

2nd Verse:

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, oh)
I swear they got some nerve
Spreading what they heard
I can't give them no words
I can't be concerned with all that talk
I won't be involved, that's my word!
See I'm not the one
They got me confused
They got me messed up
Don't you think I've had enough?
When it comes to what we do
All that matters is us two
Don't pay them no mind
We just gon' show and prove

Chorus:

Kanye's Rap Verse:

Here's a couple of things I can't honor, man
How you listen to a girl that still wanna man?
Tell me the truth is that a man or Juwanna Mann?
I'm wonderin' why she "ret to go" like Wanda then?
When we met you was a V like Madonna, man
Now you in the field runnin' plays like Donovan
McNabb before you get in a cab
I'll trade in my cab
Just to take you back to last summer, man
You don't remember when you was my sweetest?
You don't remember when I called you Reese's Pieces?
Cause it's no wrong way to do you know what
She turned around and giggle said; "You so nuts!"
But nowadays we actin' way too grown up
Like how ya ex girl get the new numba
The rumors was so numerous
For stickin' by me, I had to give you two thumbs up
And that's why

Chorus:

Go on...ohh...
The more they talk about our love
[Tune it out baby!]
The more they make it obvious
The more they seem so envious
[Woo, woo, heeey!!]
How can they talk about our love?
[Let's not talk about it baby!]
When they don't know one thing about
(Us)
And then they just runnin' they mouths
(So)
All we do is tune them out

I don't wanna hear it no more...



And the rest of Kanye West's Album - Late Registration - Is rocking my world also! :D

Buck 65 - Wicked and Weird

Driving with a yellow dog, I95
He's got a smile on his face and big shiny eyes
Up at a decent hour, I never ate yet
Got a little Johnny Cash in the old tape deck
Nothing in the trunk but some base ball gloves
a pair of jumper cables and a set of golf clubs
blanket on the back seat we're in rough shape
sunroof held on with a bit of duck tape
looking for a gas station, better make a list
Fill'er up with regular, I need to take a ****
sexy girl air freshener, snacks and a pinwheel
top up the fluids, clean the bugs off the windshield
not a care in the world, not a how, and a why
no destination, not a cloud in the sky
back on the road not a moment too soon
dish ran away with some other spoon

Wicked & wierd I'm a road hog with an old dog
singing slow songs trying to hold on
Wicked & wierd I'm a rat fich
trying to practice doing back flips on your mattress
(Repeat x2)

Hole in the muffler, ghosts on the shoulder
cough drops, loose change in the beverage holder
to roll down the window you gotta use a wrench
Been thinking about brushing up on my french
Right there in the glove box, if you should look
You'll find 40 parking tickets
And a copy of the Good Book
Don't bother looking, you'll never find me
I'm starting from scratch and leaving trouble behind me

Wicked & wierd I'm a road hog with an old dog
singing slow songs trying to hold on
Wicked & wierd I'm a rat fich
trying to practice doing back flips on your mattress
(Repeat x2)

Wicked, wicked, wicked and weird

Christ almighty, there's a rattle in the wheel well
Dog fell asleep and man, I don't feel well
But all I need is a half decent breakfast
And I'll be back at it, dirty and reckless

5 o'clock shadow, lips like mudflaps
hands like eagle's talons, eyes like hub caps
The further I get, I keep going faster
Whispers in the wind, and cows in the pasture
I have no plans and nothing to prove either
I eat out of a bag and sleep in a movie theatre

The highway's a story teller, I just write it down
Already been beaten, there's no way to fight it now
I just kick back and keep warm on the cold days
And laugh 'cause it ain't like it was in the old days
I figure when I make it to the heavenly gates
They'll be working on my car and playing 78's

Wicked & wierd I'm aroad hog with an old dog
singing slow songs trying to hold on
Wicked & wierd I'm a rat fich
trying to practice doing back flips on your mattress
(Repeat x2)

Everlong By The Foo Fighters

"Breathe out so i can breathe you in, hold you in"

Beautiful:sad:

"I'd make myself sick just to poison you"

"Do you remember when you used to be somebody that could f***ing impress me"

"Light a candle for the sinners... set the world on fire"

"I got an F and a C and I got a K too and the only thing that's missing is a bitch like U"

All Marilyn Manson.

"It's funny how everything you swore would never change is different now. Like you said, you and me would make it through, then my head fell apart... where the f*** where you?"

"The clouds will part and the sky cracks open
And God himself will reach his f***ing arm through
Just to push you down
Just to hold you down"

"i swear.
i just found everything i need.
the sweat in your eyes the blood in your veins are listening to me.
well i want to wrap it up and swim in it until i drown.
my moral standing is lying down."


"smashed up my sanity
smashed up my integrity
smashed up what i believed in
smashed up what's left of me
smashed up my everything
smashed up all that was true
gonna smash myself to pieces
i don't know what else to do...

...I tried... I gave up"

Retrovertigo - Mr. Bungle


Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights
To your blight
Time-machine
While I'm dulled by excess
And a cynic at best
My art imitates crime
Paid for by
The allies
So invest
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized
There's a vintage thirst returning
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo
A tribute to false memories
With conviction
Cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic
Remains a mouth to feed
Sell the rights
To your blight
And you'll eat
See the vintage robot wearied
Then awakened by revision theories
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo

Some Joni Mitchell ones....

notable ones (but the whole of Blue is genius) are:

"I am lonely painter, I live in a box of paints. I'm frightened by the devil, and I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid"

and

"just a little green, like the colour when the spring is born, There’ll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow. just a little green,
like the nights when the northern lights perform, There’ll be icicles and birthday clothes
And sometimes there’ll be sorrow" (about the daughter she put up for adoption :( )

I was always amused by this song:

Hawkwind - Spirit Of The Age

i would have like you to have been deep frozen too
and waiting still as fresh in your flesh for my return to earth
but your father refused to sign the forms to freeze you
let's see you'd be about sixty now
and long dead by the the time i return to earth
my time held dreams were full of you as you were when i left:
still under-age

your android replica is playing up again it's no joke
when she comes she moans another's name

that's the spirit of the age
(spirit of the age)

i am a clone i am not alone
every fibre of my flesh and bone is identical to the others'
everything i say is in the same tone as my test-tube brothers' voice.
there is no choice between us
if you had ever seen us you'd rejoice in your uniqueness
and consider every weakness something special of your own
being a clone i have no flaws to identify
even this doggerel that pours from my pen
has just been written by another twenty telepathic men
it says: o for the wings of any bird
other than a battery hen.

it's just the spirit of the age
(spirit of the age)

Smoeone mentioned imitation of life by rem what a classic I can still isten to that again and again has an almost addictive sound. "the greatest thing since bread came sliced "

remember the video that went backwards

Anyone like me and my monkey by robbie williams

We made tracks to The Mandalay bay Hotel,

asked the bell boy if he would take me and my monkey as well

he looked on the passenger seat of my car and with a smile said

if your monkeys got that kind of money then we got a monkey bed

:)

Alanis Morissette Lyrics

Not The Doctor Lyrics


I don't want to be the filler if the void is solely yours
I don't want to be your glass of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I don't want to be adored for what I merely represent to you
I don't want to be your babysitter
You're a very big boy now
I don't want to be your mother
I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door

Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor

I don't want to be the sweeper of the egg shells that you walk upon
And I don't want to be your other half, I believe that 1 and 1 make 2
I don't want to be your food or the light from the fridge on your face
At midnight, hey
What are you hungry for
I don't want to be the glue that holds your pieces together
I don't want to be your idol
See this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights
I don't want to be lived through
A vicarious occasion
Please open the window

Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor

I don't want to live on someday when my motto is last week
I don't want to be responsible for your fractured heart
And it's wounded beat
I don't want to be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for

Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor

Alanis Morissette Lyrics

All I Really Want Lyrics


Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I'm so relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker

And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred
Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around...all around
Why are you so petrified of silence
Here can you handle this?

Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction
And all I need know is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

All I really want is some peace man
a place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

"Right Where It Belongs"

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs

[Chorus:]
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees

[Chorus:]
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

"Only"

I'm becoming less defined as days go by
Fading away
And well you might say
I'm losing focus
Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

Sometimes I think I can see right through myself [x2]
Sometimes I can see right through myself

Less concerned about fitting into the world
Your world that is
Cause it doesn't really matter anymore
(no it doesn't really matter anymore)
No it doesn't really matter anymore
None of this really matters anymore

Yes I am alone but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell
I think maybe it's because
Because you were never really real to begin with
I just made you up to hurt myself

[x2]
I just made you up to hurt myself, yeah
And I just made you up to hurt myself

And it worked.
Yes it did!

[Chorus:]
There is no you
There is only me
There is no you
There is only me
There is no ****ing you
There is only me
There is no ****ing you
There is only me

Only [x4]

Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab
And I had this funny feeling like I just knew it's something bad
I just couldn't leave it alone, I kept picking at the scab
It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
But I climbed through

Now I am somewhere I am not supposed to be, and I can see things I know I really shouldn't see
And now I know why, now, now, now I know why
Things aren't as pretty
On the inside

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

"Head Like A Hole"

God money i'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.

[Bridge:]
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me
no you can't take it
no you can't take it
no you can't take that away from me

head like a hole.
black as your soul.
i'd rather die than give you control.
head like a hole.
black as your soul.
i'd rather die than give you control.

[Chorus:]
bow down before the one you serve.
you're going to get what you deserve.
bow down before the one you serve.
you're going to get what you deserve.

God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned with the sick amongst the pure.
God money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose

You know who you are

The 'B' side of Jasper Carrott's 'Funky Moped' was 'The Magic Roundabout'.
Very funny at the time - summer of 1975.

IRIS - GOO GOO DOLLS (NOT bloody Ronan Keating)

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Gnarls Barkley - Just a Thought

"It's even dark in the daytime, it's not just good, it's great depression./
When I was lost I even found myself looking in the gun's direction./
And I've tried everything but suicide, but it's crossed my mind."

And of course their "Who Cares?" song.

"It feels like the surreal life/
But it's still nice, wish I could live twice/
And I still might, if these wounds heal right/
I see a little light, even though it's still night."

I like the line "LOVE CHANGES EVERTHING" from the song

Bloodhound Gang - Yummy Down on this

Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on

Ouch it won't reach my mouth
If I could do it myself I'd probably never leave the house
But I can't so here's where you come in
Giving it "Diff'rent Strokes" just like Arnold Drummond
Hummin' hmm hmm good like Campbell's
And you'll handle the sack like the quarterback Randall
Cunningham like Joanie loves Chachi
They call him Ralph Mouth 'cause he's down on Potsie
Rocky chasing the chicken
Watch the plot thicken with the cock when your lickin'
Me like Apollo your Creed my Mission
You go down for the count I countdown ignition
Blast off you're a rocket scientist
A genius what I mean is you suck at this
So escargot 'cause my snail needs Frenchin'
You must be five stars cause my staff's at full attention

Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this

Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on
Yummy down on yummy down on this down on

Dinner for one I know you got your reservations
Starvation like a Third World Nation
So do it for the children and I'll make a donation
My fly's in your eyes let me rise to the occasion
In my Underoos I tend to be brief
So when you're sinking your teeth deep into my beef
You can fondle but it's kind of like McDonald's realize it's
Just a Happy Meal so you can't Super Size it
Told to hold the pickle then you went and blew it
Gherkin off and the Special Sauce comes included
But you knew it did so concentrate like Tropicana
To eat a Chiquita you need to grow the banana
So can ya Bob like Dylan on my Peter like Criss
'Til it's Chubby like Checker c'mon baby do the twist
It's all in the wrist like table tennis
So beat me like Betty Crocker cake mix

Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this
Yummy down on this down on this down on this

Suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it
Suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it
Suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it
Suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it suck it

If you were a Hindu I could aim for the dot

Yummy down on this
Yummy down on this

Yummy down on this throbbing pole of hot man chicken.
And feel free to wiggledunk those purple bulldog cheeks.
