Lyrics Of The Day

[Ninty 182]

Thought this'd be a good place for people to post the lyrics that mean something to them or say something or just lyrics that they like. (I know I called it lyrics of the day but that's just cus it sounded snappy)

I'll start off:

 

 

 

Universal Soldier

 

He's five feet two and he's six feet four

He fights with missiles and with spears

He's all of 31 and he's only 17

He's been a soldier for a thousand years

 

He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jain,

a Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew

and he knows he shouldn't kill

and he knows he always will

kill you for me my friend and me for you

 

And he's fighting for Canada,

he's fighting for France,

he's fighting for the USA,

and he's fighting for the Russians

and he's fighting for Japan,

and he thinks we'll put an end to war this way

 

And he's fighting for Democracy

and fighting for the Reds

He says it's for the peace of all

He's the one who must decide

who's to live and who's to die

and he never sees the writing on the walls

 

But without him how would Hitler have

condemned him at Dachau

Without him Caesar would have stood alone

He's the one who gives his body

as a weapon to a war

and without him all this killing can't go on

 

He's the universal soldier and he

really is to blame

His orders come from far away no more

They come from him, and you, and me

and brothers can't you see

this is not the way we put an end to war.

 

Lyrics by Buffy Sainte-Marie

Gorillaz: Feel Good Inc. Lyrics

 

Windmill windmill for the land

Turn forever hand in hand

Take it all it on your stride

It is STICKING, falling down

Love forever love is free

Turn forever you and me

Windmill windmill for the land

Is everybody In?

 

I love the chorus!

[killthenet]

Veronica, On Harmonica

Written by Nathan Cathorne

 

Kristen Bell, Oh me. Oh my.

She's so easy, on the eye.

Creeping around in her micey way.

She has come to save the day.

 

Kristen Bell.

I bet she has a nice smell.

Gorgeous in high heels.

I'd really like. To feels.

 

She has the sweetest wheels.

And stops those dodgy deals.

 

Kristen Bell. Oh me. Oh my.

So effortlessly easy, on the eye.

She crept around is such a micey way.

And for everyone, she saved the day!

Do You Realize? - Flaming Lips

 

 

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face

Do You Realize - we're floating in space -

Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry

Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

 

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know

You realize that life goes fast

It's hard to make the good things last

You realize the sun don'-go down

It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

 

Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh

Do You Realize - that everyone you know

Someday will die -

 

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know

You realize that life goes fast

It's hard to make the good things last

You realize the sun don'-go down

It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

 

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face

Do You Realize

[Ninty 182]

Restless Farewell

 

 

Oh all the money that in my whole life I did spend,

Be it mine right or wrongfully,

I let it slip gladly past the hands of my friends

To tie up the time most forcefully.

But the bottles are done,

We've killed each one

And the table's full and overflowed.

And the corner sign

Says it's closing time,

So I'll bid farewell and be down the road.

 

Oh ev'ry girl that ever I've touched,

I did not do it harmfully.

And ev'ry girl that ever I've hurt,

I did not do it knowin'ly.

But to remain as friends and make amends

You need the time and stay behind.

And since my feet are now fast

And point away from the past,

I'll bid farewell and be down the line.

 

Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced,

The cause was there before we came.

And ev'ry cause that ever I fought,

I fought it full without regret or shame.

But the dark does die

As the curtain is drawn and somebody's eyes

Must meet the dawn.

And if I see the day

I'd only have to stay,

So I'll bid farewell in the night and be gone.

 

Oh, ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind,

I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung.

But it's not to stand naked under unknowin' eyes,

It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.

But the time ain't tall,

Yet on time you depend and no word is possessed

By no special friend.

And though the line is cut,

It ain't quite the end,

I'll just bid farewell till we meet again.

 

Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time

To disgrace, distract, and bother me.

And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,

And the dust of rumors covers me.

But if the arrow is straight

And the point is slick,

It can pierce through dust no matter how thick.

So I'll make my stand

And remain as I am

And bid farewell and not give a damn.

 

 

 

Lyrics by Bob Dylan

Astronomy - Blue Oyster Cult

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Four winds at the four winds bar

Two doors locked and windows barred

One door let to take you in

The other one just mirrors it

Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Ashley]

The Perishers - Sway

 

I've been in love with this song for nearly a year now:

 

I talk to you as to a friend

I hope that's what you've come to be

It feels as though we've made amends

Like we found a way eventually

 

It was you who picked the pieces up

When I was a broken soul

And then glued me back together

Returned to me what others stole

 

I don't wanna hurt you

I don't wanna make you sway

Like I know I've done before

I will not do it anymore

I've always been a dreamer

I've had my head among the clouds

Now that I'm coming down

Won't you be my solid ground?

 

I look at you and see a friend

I hope that's what you wanna be

Are we back now where it all began

Have you finally forgiven me?

 

You gathered my dreams in

When they all blew away

And then tricked them back into me

You saved me I was almost dead

[Samdecahedron]

Monorail! Monorail! monoraaaaail!

[jayseven]

Brand New - Jesus Christ

 

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face

The kind you'd find on someone I could save

If they don't put me away

Well, it'll be a miracle

 

Do you believe you're missing out

That everything good is happening somewhere else?

But with nobody in your bed

The night's hard to get through

 

And I will die all alone

And when I arrive I won't know anyone

 

Well Jesus Christ, I'm alone again

So what did you do those three days you were dead?

Cause this problem's gonna last more than the weekend.

 

Well Jesus Christ, I'm not scared to die,

I'm a little bit scared of what comes after

Do I get the gold chariot?

Do I float through the ceiling?

 

Do I divide and fall apart?

Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark

And the ship went down in sight of land

And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands

 

I know you'll come in the night like a thief

But I've had some time alone to hone my lying technique

I know you think that I'm someone you can trust

But I'm scared I'll get scared and I swear I'll try to nail you back up

 

So do you think that we could work out a sign

So I'll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try

 

I know you'll come for the people like me

But we all got wood and nails

Tongue tied to a hating factory

 

But we all got wood and nails

Your tortured (and hanging) factory

Yeah, we all got wood and nails

Your tortured (and hanging) factory

Yeah, we all got wood and nails

And we sleep inside of this machine

[killthenet]

The Wutars - Christmas Beatdown

Written by A.J. Levinson

 

Batten down the hatches!

Christmas is a comin'

Snow covering the bun cakes

And keeping the porridge flowing.

 

Why it's a grand old time to be alive.

Why it's a grand old time to named Clive.

Why it's a grand old time

Why it's a grand old time.

Why it's such and grand, grand time.

 

We've got the holly on the corner

Whistlin' over to the slaughter.

Wrasslin' like she was his daughter.

Hoping nobody saw her.

 

Grand old time etc.

Grand old time once again.

Christmas comes around.

Yeah, yeah.

We love CHRISTMAS all day long.

 

[Guitar solo]

 

Bring your roses to the yard.

But wait a while please.

Santa Claus is busy in a layby on the coast

Getting his shaft worked on by a girl who costs the most.

When his sleigh comes in his sack will be empty

But he'll fill it up again for the kids.

[fanman]

Asian Kung-Fu Generation - Angou no Warutsu (The coded waltz)

 

慌てなくたって　

何時僕は消えてしまうけど

そうやって何度も逃げ出すから

何もないんだよ

 

 

胸の奥に刺さって心汚していくモノ

白いキャンバスを埋める記憶

薄ら笑う世界を

 

 

誘いのカイト　

群れる三人称

際限ない欲望を

拙い方法で満たす感情と君の体温　

 

 

急かされても今は簡単に笑えないけど　

届かなくたって

僕は此処で泣きながらも願うよ　

 

 

誘いのカイト

群れる三人称

際限ない欲望を

拙い方法で満たす感情と君の体温

 

 

暗号のような塞いだ言葉

揺らいだ思い　

拙い方法で放つ感情と君の体温

解く鍵もないのに

 

 

Kimi ni tsutau ka na (x 3)

Kimi ni tsutau wake wa nai yo na ..�@ ~�@~

 

君に伝うかな (x3)

君に伝うわけはないよな

Kurenai by X Japan. Amazing song

 

I could not look back,

you'd gone away from me

I felt my heart ache

I was afraid of following you

When I had looked at

the shadows on the wall

I started running into the night

to find the truth in me

 

arashi fuku kono machi ga omae wo daku

fukinukeru kaze ni sae me wo tojiru

 

omae wa hashiridasu nanika ni owareru you

ore ga mienai no ka sugu soba ni iru no ni

 

hitonami ni kiete yuku kioku no toiki

ai no nai hitori butai mou taekirenai

All of you in my memory is

still shining in my heart

sure chigau kokoro wa afureru namida nure

 

kurenai ni somatta kono ore wo

nagusameru yatsu wa mou inai

 

mou nido to todokanai kono omoi

tozasareta ai ni mukai

sakebi tsuzukeru

 

omae wa hashiridasu nanika ni owareru you

ore ga mienai no ka sugu soba ni iru no ni

 

kurenai ni somatta kono ore wo

nagusameru yatsu wa mou inai

 

mou nido to todokanai kono omoi

tozasareta ai ni mukai

sakebi tsuzukeru

 

kurenai ni somatta kono ore wo

nagusameru yatsu wa mou inai

[Ninty 182]

Outside Of A Small Circle Of Friends

 

Look outside the window, there's a woman being grabbed

They've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed

Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain

But monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends.

 

Riding down the highway, yes, my back is getting stiff

Thirteen cars are piled up, they're hanging on a cliff.

Maybe we should pull them back with our towing chain

But we gotta move and we might get sued and it looks like its gonna rain

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends.

 

Sweating in the ghetto with the colored and the poor

The rats have joined the babies who are sleeping on the floor

Now wouldnt it be a riot if they really blew their tops?

But they got too much already and besides we got the cops

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends.

 

Oh theres a dirty paper using sex to make a sale

The supreme court was so upset, they sent him off to jail.

Maybe we should help the fiend and take away his fine.

But were busy reading playboy and the sunday new york times

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

 

Smoking marihuana is more fun than drinking beer,

But a friend of ours was captured and they gave him thirty years

Maybe we should raise our voices, ask somebody why

But demonstrations are a drag, besides were much too high

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

 

Oh look outside the window, there's a woman being grabbed

They've dragged her to the bushes and now she's being stabbed

Maybe we should call the cops and try to stop the pain

But monopoly is so much fun, I'd hate to blow the game

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

 

Down in santiago where they took away our mines

We cut off all their money so they robbed the storehouse blind

Now maybe we should ask some questions, maybe shed a tear

But I bet you a copper penny, it cannot happen here

And I'm sure it wouldnt interest anybody

Outside of a small circle of friends

You have good taste in music

[gaggle64]

This seems fairly topical:

 

Avril Lavigne - I'm With you.

 

 

I'm standin' on the bridge.

I'm waitin' in the dark.

I thought that you'd be here by now.

There's nothing but the rain.

No footsteps on the ground.

I'm listening, but there's no sound.

 

Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?

Won't somebody come take me home?

 

 

It's a damn cold night,

tryin' to figure out this life.

Won't you take me by the hand,

take me somewhere new.

I don't know who you are but I,

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

 

I'm lookin' for a place.

I'm searchin' for a face.

Is anybody here I know?

Cause' nothin's goin' right,

And everything's a mess,

And no one likes to be alone.

 

Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?

Won't somebody come take me home?

 

It's a damn cold night,

tryin' to figure out this life.

Won't you take me by the hand,

take me somewhere new.

I don't know who you are but I,

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

Yeah-ee-Yeah

 

Oh, why is everything so confusing?

Maybe I'm just out of my mind.

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

 

 

It's a damn cold night,

tryin' to figure out this life.

Won't you take me by the hand,

Take me somewhere new?

I don't know who you are but I,

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

 

Take me by the hand,

Take me somewhere new.

I don't know who you are but

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

 

Take me by the hand,

Take me somewhere new.

I don't know who you are but I,

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

I'm with you.

[Ninty 182]

Let It Be

 

When i find myself in times of trouble

Mother mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

 

And when the broken hearted people

Living in the world agree,

There will be an answer, let it be.

For though they may be parted there is

Still a chance that they will see

There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be. yeah

There will be an answer, let it be.

 

And when the night is cloudy,

There is still a light that shines on me,

Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.

I wake up to the sound of music

Mother mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.

There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be,

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

[Guest Stefkov]

You have good taste in music

I do dont i i joke.

 

Here's another which I get excited everytime I hear, and must sing along to

 

Hot Hot Heat - Goodnight Goodnight

It's not enough to hear me say you've won

You only wanted me for having fun

But now I think you've gone and had your way

And left me with a pile of bills to pay

I can't even rewind the tape machine

To listen to your drunken reasoning

So here it is - your final lullaby

 

Goodnight, goodnight

You're embarrassing me

You're embarrassing you

So goodnight, goodnight

Walk away from the door

Walk away from my life

So Goodnight

 

I've given up on social niceties

I threw 'em out when I threw out your keys

Along with all your records I can't stand

You never even listen to any one of them

You're never gonna drag me out again

With all the people that were never ever even your friends

So here it is - your final lullaby

 

Goodnight, goodnight

You're embarrassing me

You're embarrassing you

So goodnight, goodnight

Walk away from the door

Walk away from my life

So goodnight

 

A little bit of rain I'd say is fair

But when it starts to thunder they all stare

This isn't goodnight, this is goodbye...

 

So goodnight, goodnight

You're embarrassing me

You're embarrassing you

Goodnight, goodnight.

Walk away from the door

Walk away from my life

 

Goodnight, goodnight

You're embarrassing me

You're embarrassing you

So Goodnight, goodnight

Walk away from the door

Walk away from my life

So goodnight

Deportees

 

The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting

The oranges are filed in their creosote dumps

They're flying 'em back to the Mexico border

To take all their money to wade back again

 

Goodbye to my Juan, farewell Roselita

Adios mes amigos, Jesus e Maria

You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane

All they will call you will be deportees

 

My father's own father, he waded that river

They took all the money he made in his life

It's six hundred miles to the Mexico border

And they chased them like rustlers, like outlaws, like thieves

 

The skyplane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon

The great ball of fire it shook all our hills

Who are these dear friends who are falling like dry leaves?

Radio said, "They are just deportees"

 

Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?

Is this the best way we can raise our good crops?

To fall like dry leaves and rot on out topsoil

And be known by no names except "deportees"

 

 

 

Woody Guthrie

[Letty]

Godsmack - I am

 

I am your spoken truth

I am the lies in you

Im gonna make you shine in everything you do

I am your lighted way

And Im your darkest day

Im here to help you see you can rely on me

 

Just consider me your friend

I am until the end

Can I guarantee you life?

I dont think I can

 

This isnt the life for me

This isnt the way I want to be

And let me tell you

Death will come when Im good and ready

 

I am your peace of mind

Confusing all your time

Im running through your veins, I am your pain

I thought by now youd know

Ill never let you go

Its time you recognize I am the devils eyes

 

Just consider me your friend

I am until the end

Can I guarantee you life?

I dont think I can

 

This isnt the life for me

This isnt the way I want to be

And let me tell you

Death will come when Im good and ready

 

This isnt the life for me

This isnt the way I want to be

And let me tell you

Death will come when Im good and ready

 

Take me by my hand

And let me show you what I am

Im taking control again

Now I know I can

Take you back to where it all began

cause I am

 

This isnt the life for me

This isnt the way I want to be

And let me tell you

Death will come when Im good and ready

 

This isnt the life for me

This isnt the way I want to be

And let me tell you

Death will come when Im good and ready
