I always pay attention to lyrics and love to hear some good ones. So post some great lyrics in a few songs. Be sure to label it!
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere When the water filled every hole. And thousands upon thousands made an ocean, Making islands where no island should go.
Snow Patrol - Headlights
For once I want to be the car crash Not always just the traffic jam Hit me hard enough to wake me And lead me wild to your dark roads
I was a young boy who had big plans. Now I'm just another shitty old man. I have no fun and I hate everything, the world owes me so fuck you. - Eminem - "My Name Is"
My English teacher wanted to flunk me in Jr. High. Thanks a lot, next semester I'll be 35. I smacked him in his face with an eraser, chased him with a stapler, stapled his nuts to a stack of paper. - Fountains of Wayne - "Stacy's Mom"
And I know that you think it's just a fantasy. But since your dad walked out your mom could use a guy like me.
In the deepest part of me like an unknown memory i was never ment to find little seed of purity ad you dont belong to me still im blinded by its light Dont try to make it right
Does anyone know about love does anyone care about god if your with me sing sorrow
Led Zeppelin-Black Dog Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way Watch your honey drip, cant keep away.
Led Zeppelin-In My Time Of Dying And I see them in the streets And I see them in the field And I hear them shouting under my feet And I know it's got to be real Oh, Lord, deliver me All the wrong I've done You can deliver me, Lord I only wanted to have some fun.
Led Zeppelin- 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 everything 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 To be a rock and not to roll Woe oh oh oh oh oh And she's buying a stairway to heaven
Led Zeppelin-Immagrant Song AHHHHHHHH AHHH
How soft your fields so green, Can whisper tales of gore, Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.
Sometimes I feel Like I dont have a partner Sometimes I feel Like my only friend Is the city I live in The city of angel Lonely as I am Together we cry
I drive on her streets cause shes my companion I walk through her hills cause she knows who I am She sees my good deeds And she kisses me windy I never worry Now that is a lie
I dont ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way
Its hard to believe That theres nobody out there Its hard to believe That Im all alone At least I have her love The city she loves me Lonely as I am Together we cry
I dont ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way
Under the bridge downtown Is where I drew some blood Under the bridge downtown I could not get enough Under the bridge downtown Forgot about my love Under the bridge downtown I gave my life away
When it comes to lyrics, you can't compete with the oldie bands - This is by "The Band" from their albim, "Jericho." It's called "Move to Japan"
Well, I'm starin' at my Sony, a-drinkin' Kirun beer. I had a nickel in my pocket when it all came clear. I hopped into my Honda, it's a little bitty car. And I'm drivin' down to meet you at the Sushi Bar. But don't tell me I'm crazy until you hear my plan. I'm gonna buy two tickets and move to Japan.
I'm gonna move to Japan, I'm gonna move to Japan.
So if you've got no job and runnin' out of dough, And they moved the factory down to Mexico, Just pack your bags and don't forget your Kimona, And you'll be followin' me, honey, all the way to Yokohama.
We're gonna move to Japan, We're gonna move to Japan.
Tokyo's got the neon. I put a pot of green tea on. Akira Kurosawa, Sapporo Okinawa. Girls with almond eyes, Eatin' seaweed and rice. It's the land of tradition, But I'm a man on a mission.
When we get to Japan we're gonna do our part, We're gonna love Japan with all of our heart.
From the unemployment line I see lots to be done And they're taking all hands in the land of the risin' sun. And I love my mom and my apple pie, But sayonara Uncle Sam, hello Samurai.
We're gonna move to Japan, We're gonna move to Japan, We're gonna move to Japan, Hey, we're gonna move to Japan, The home of the working man.
It's rolling.
And now possibly the best set of lyrics ever written, "Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bob Dylan. I recently got to see him play this live, and it was quite a treat.
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
Retrofit the pudding hatch Ooh la la With the boink swatter
If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though I brazillian wax poetic so hypothetically I don't wanna beat around the bush
Foxtrot Unifrom Charlie Kilo Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo
Marinate the nether rod In the squish mitten
Power drill the yippee bog With the dude piston
Pressure wash the quiver bone In the bitch wrinkle
Cannonball the fiddle cove Ooh la la With the pork steeple
If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though I brazillian wax poetic so hypothetically I don't wanna beat around the bush
Foxtrot Unifrom Charlie Kilo Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo
Put the you know what in the you know where Put the you know what in the you know where Put the you know what in the you know where Put the you know what in the you know where pronto
Birds are circling above they're called back to a waiting glove oh why dont they fly away? Surely they haved guessed by now There is no gun to shoot them down And still they stay for what they stay
Are we killing them with lies? Are they fighting for their lives? Killing them with thoughts? Can we never get enough? Killing are we killing killing every single feeling? It's a trained response
Birds are circling above They're called back to a waiting glove This sordid game It fears my name I have worshiped some false gods I run to them like Pavlov's dog to hide my shame to fan the flame
are we killing them with lies? are they fighting for their lives? killing them with thoughts? can we never get enough? killing them are we killing killing every single feeling?
We are all preset to reset DUMB TO DUMB
WE'RE ALL PRESET TO RESET TO DUMB WE'RE ALL PRESET TO RESET TO DUMB
somebody told me once beat them till they start to get used to it next thing there lining up
are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing them? are we killing?
its a pretty deep song, and can really get to you, thats why i love to listen to this song so much
Must have stabbed her fifty fucking times, I can't believe it Ripped her heart out right before her eyes, eyes over easy Eat it, eat it, eat it
She was never this good in bed, even when she was sleeping Now she's just so perfect, I've never been quite so fucking deep in
--------- Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find While I recall all the words you spoke to me Can't help but wish that I was there Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away We all need that person who can be true to you But I left her when I found her And now I wish I'd stayed âCause I'm lonely and I'm tired I'm missing you again oh no Once again
There's nothing here for me on this barren road There's no one here while the city sleeps and all the shops are closed Can't help but think of the times I've had with you Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah
------------------------ Linkin Park - No More Sorrow
Are you lost, In your lies? Do you tell yourself, I don't realize? Your crusades, A disguise. You replaced freedom with fear, You trade money for lives.
I'm aware of what you've done.
No, No More Sorrow. I've paid for your mistakes. Your time is borrowed. Your time has come to be replaced.
-------------- Nightwish - Amaranth
The doubting one by heart Alone without himself
War between him and the day Need someone to blame In the end, little he can do alone
You believe but what you see You receive but what you give
this is Wake Up by Coheed and Cambria. A great song to wave ur arms to.
I'm gonna ride this plane out of your life again I wish that I could stay, but you argue More than this I wish, you could've seen my face In backseats staring out, the window
I'll do anything for you Kill anyone for you
So leave yourself intact 'Cause I will be coming back In a phrase to cut these lips I love you
The morning will come In the press of every kiss With your head upon my chest Where I will annoy you With every waking breath Until you decide to wake up
I've earned through hope and faith On the curves around your face That I'm the one you'll hold forever If morning never comes for either one of us Then this I pray to you wherever
I'll do anything for you This story is for you ('Cause I'd do anything you want me to for you) I'll do anything for you Kill anyone for you
So leave yourself intact 'Cause I won't be coming back In a phrase to cut these lips I loved you
The morning will come In the press of every kiss With your head upon my chest Where I will annoy you With every waking breath Until you decide to wake up
The morning will come In the press of every kiss With your head upon my chest Where I will annoy you With every waking breath 'Til you decide to wake up
I got the talk when I was younger and understood As I recall they hadn't mentioned this at all My heart was racing like a sprinter that tripped and fell In love with a girl just for tonight and that's all
I've got big, big plans and they've got to mean something more than just once I just don't know what I want
I'm gonna tear your ass up like we just got married And you're all mine now Tonight is the night we've been waiting for all our lives Or maybe for just tonight
I got the call when I was older - yeah, and I understood If it happens then it happens and that's all My arm's the hose and you're the fire, out of control And I've got to put you out before there's nothing left at all
I've got big, big plans and they've got to mean something more than just once but I just don't know what I want
I'm gonna tear your ass up like we just got married And you're all mine now Tonight is the night we've been waiting for all our lives Or maybe for just mine Get your ass up cause you're in no hurry like I am now I'm getting older and older all of the time Or maybe for just tonight
And the next part is the hardest to admit and explain But I've got to get it right She said I'll chew you up and spit you out like all them Im gonna put you right back in my mouth You can stay like that for now You know that I will always love you
I tore your ass up like we just got married And you're all mine now Cause tonight is the night that we've been waiting for all our lives Or maybe its just... You've gotta get your ass up cause you're in no hurry like I am now I'm getting older and older all of the time
go baby one more time
I'm gonna tear your ass up like we just got married and you're all mine now Tonight is the night is the night we've been waiting for all our lives or maybe it's just mine
Older tonight
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah....
