Favorite Lyrics?
#1
Ok, I have a LOT of favorite Lyrics snippets, so I'm only gonna list a few.
I'm listing them in this format:
Band - Song, Albumn
Lyrics or a note saying the whole song
(Any notes I might want to add)
You'll see a lot of Metallica in here. My favorite band. I identify very well with their music.

Metallica - Cyanide, Death Magnetic
Say is that rain, or are they tears
That stained your concrete face for years
The crying, weeping, shedding strife
Year after year, life after life
(I love the whole song, but these lyrics just speak)

Green Day - American Idiot/Holiday/Boulevard of Broken Dreams/Wake Me When September Ends, American Idiot
I like these songs basically from start to finish

Metallica - Sweet Amber, St. Anger
Chase the rabbit
Fetch the stick
She rolls me over until I'm sick
She deals in habit
She deals in pain
I've run away
But I'm back again
(Great euphemism for the way many women treat men like dogs, and the way a lot of those men ACT like them too)

Three Doors Down with Bob Seger - Landing in London, Seventeen Days
LAs getting kinda crazy
And New Yorks getting kinda cold
I keep my head from getting lazy
I just can't wait to get back home
And all these days I spend away
I'll make up for this I swear
I need your love to hold me up
When its all too much to bear
And when the night falls in around me
And I don't think I'll make it through
I'll use your light to guide my way
Cause all I think about is you

Crossfade - Cold, Crossfade
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way
I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way
I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold
To you I'm sorry about all the lies
Maybe in a different light
You can see me stand on my own again

Godsmack - Moon Baby, Godsmack
Why is it every day
That I feel the pain
Of you
Lets take a trip to the stars far away
Where were you when I was down
Staring into the dead
Dead
My pain is caused by my pleasure
And my soul mate lives in your body
And I can't get you out of my head

The Goo Goo Dolls - Iris, Dizzy Up The Girl
The whole song...

Guns 'N Roses - I Used to Love Her, Lies
I had to put her six feet under
And I can still hear her complain
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I knew I'd miss her
So I had to keep her
Shes buried right in my back yard
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
I used to love her
But I had to kill her
She bitched so much
She drove me nuts
And now I'm happier this way

Harry Chapin - Cats In The Cradle, Book of Chapin
The whole song... again... LOL What can I say? Good lyrics are good lyrics

John Lee Hooker - Mustang Sally & GTO, More Real Folk Blues: The Missing Album
Mustang Sally
Just bought a brand new GTO
Mustang Sally
Just bought a brand new GTO
A four barrel carburetor
Got a stick down in the floor
You see her comin
You better move over
You see her rollin
You better move over
(This one's for you Sally ::dlaugh:Smiley_emoticons_smile

Korn - Twisted Transistor (Explicit), See You on the Other Side
Hey you hey you
Devil's Little Sister
Listening to your twisted transistor
Hold it between your legs
Turn it up
Turn it up
The wind is coming through
Can't get enough
Alone in life
When no one understands you
But don't give up
Because the music do

Linkin Park - In The End, Hybrid Theory
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Its so unreal

Metallica - Harvester of Sorrow, ...And Justice For All
Another one that I like the whole lyrics of the song. You'll find that a lot with Metallica for me Smiley_emoticons_razz

Nickelback - If Everyone Cared, All The Right Reasons
If everyone cared
And nobody cried
If everyone loved
And nobody lied
If everyone shared
And swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day
When nobody died

Metallica - Master of Puppets, Master of Puppets
Controlling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master
Master of Puppets are pulling your strings
Twisting your mind
And smashing your dreams
Blinded by me you can't see a thing
Just call my name
Cause I hear you scream
(Again, I love the whole song, but these lyrics stand out as being so true)

Metallica - Leper Messiah, Master of Puppets
Spineless from the start, sucked into the part
circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
Please, please
spreading his disease, living by his story
Knees, knees
falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
You will

Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat

Bow to Leper Messiah

Marvel at his tricks, need your Sunday fix
blind devotion came, rotting your brain
Chain, chain
Join the endless chain, taken by his glamour
Fame, Fame
Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power
We see

Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat

Bow to Leper Messiah

Witchery, weakening
Sees the sheep are gathering
set the trap, hypnotize
now you follow

Time for lust, time for lie
time to kiss your life goodbye
Send me money, send me green
Heaven you will meet
Make a contribution
and you'll get a better seat

Lie.

Metallica - Disposable Heroes, Master of Puppets
Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, Greeting Death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman

Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you wear, glory seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

Everyone's familiar with this one, I think:

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid
Come on baby...and she had no fear
And she ran to him...then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodby...she had become like they are
She had taken his hand...she had become like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper

If you look at your reflection in the bottom of a well,
what you see is only on the surface.
When you try to see the meaning hidden underneath,
The measure of the depth can be deceiving
The bottom has a rocky reputation....


You can feel it in the distance, the deeper down you stare,
From up above it's hard to see, but you know it when you're there
On the bottom words are shallow
On the surface talk is cheap
You can only judge the distance by the company you keep
In the eyes of the Confessor.....

That's a great tune as well. Even if you did misspell goodbye Smiley_emoticons_biggrin

This always makes me think of the Confessors in Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series.

Then the rainstorm came, over me
And I felt my spirit break
I had lost all of my, belief you see
And realized my mistake
But time through a prayer, to me
And all around me became still

I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name

Through the rainstorm came sanctuary
And I felt my spirit fly
I had found all of my reality
I realize what it takes

'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name

Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name

Well I try to say there's nothing wrong
But inside I felt me lying all along
But the message here was plain to see
Believe me

'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name

Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name

Love can help me know my name.

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright with you?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright with you?
With you...

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah.)when it's loaded
Is that alright with you?
If you don't shoot it how (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah. ) am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah. ) when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Is that alright, yeah?
Give my gun away (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah. ) when it's loaded
Is that alright with you?
If you don't shoot it how (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah. ) am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away (Lisa: Is that alright? Yeah. ) when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

(Slight Overlap..)
Is that alright, yeah?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright, yeah?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright, yeah?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright, is that alright?

Is that alright with you?

No...

Lyrics to Golden Country :
Golden country your face is so red
With all of your money your poor can be fed
You strut around and you flirt with disaster
Never really carin' just what comes after
Well your blacks are dyin' but your back is still turned
And your freaks are cryin' but your back is still turned
You better stop your hidin or your country will burn
The time has come for you my friend
To all this ugliness we must put an end
Before we leave we must make a stand
Mortgage people you crawl to your homes
Your security lies in your bed of white foam
You act concerned but then why turn away
When a lady was raped on your doorstep today
Well your blacks are cryin' but your back is still turned
And your freaks are dyin' but your back is still turned
You better stop your hidin or your country will burn
The time has come for you my friend
To all this ugliness we must put an end
Before we leave we must make a stand, oh yeah......

Here's my all time favorite.



Comfortably Numb (Gilmour, Waters) 6:49

Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?
Come on, now,
I hear you're feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I'll need some information first.
Just the basic facts.
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain you would not understand
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

O.K.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good.
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

Well, I'm heading down a southern trail, I'm going chicken huntin'
Chopping redneck chicken necks I ain't saying nothing
To the hillbilly stuck my barrel in his eye
Boomshacka boomshacka hair jumps in the sky
Why I never liked chicken pot pie?
Or the chopped chicken on rye?
So tell Mr. Billy Bob I'm a cut his neck up
Slice, poke, chop chop, stab, cut
What can you do with the drunken hillbilly
Cut his fucking eyes out and feed em to his Aunt Milly
Willy Willy chicken neck, chicken hunting gotta love it
Hit him with the twelve gauge bucket, chicken nuggets
Laid out all over the grass
Then his little hound dog will eat em up fast
Last as long as you can my man
Cuz when that chicken [url=http://linx.chitika.net/track?target=http%3A//rc.us-east.srv.overture.com/d/sr/%3Fxargs%3D20AD7T3U8WVTOc_JiMCdxdCX24jSMtd5TIhzyCXAu3xgGoL_hkJXwxkkYxFOZlRs-y_JuKNONfidnhVpgv6GVr9uugPGpHbCg3f2PI_TlnV9DZNh-gZuhJ625r9Tzx3nyW-aZEmz1TZOIghI_qy4BC--WGaitIoMc6EtDy4dsCNmfWWP11ap7iDhMFHx58wIeVPxCvSX9EfCsNdwINwhIdRNPSAC_hKbKSM-UqjWV4pFir.000000024ca26891%26op%3D36ef997&xargs=eOGnlpDP517sVZKS6fVxdCVSvgSl4MgVnRU1TSLz/45XUtvXTRZme1x7Li6GudeKE%2B6AF2v6Wr%2BjFIuZXEBl2/VsGBkDvGc9lG6%2BGdTus8ayY5P3QDCUNn74PtiQA%2B9D3hCC3fX/Gy8jE6MuWAjPxUny/ZWLez5nWdiKxhwdejp32JAp4Q65jgRZUcecsIfzZd6WIPkHT3Bj9cjlqtDPiqF52wl6BOIUukJa7TiLYB9Y3THrQTZicQydHJQevIXHkpNx8tRMHX5XJj5jjXdU8%2BUxHrbH166vND4au%2BVbkD%2BZyE5ex/WS/Q%3D%3D&keyword=head%20hits]head hits[/url] the fan, you got

Let me get a chicken sandwich with manwich
I'm finna wreck on a chicken neck
Chopping up Hilly and Billy Bob Billy
Cuz I chop motherfuckin' redneck silly
Peeked in his yard and what did I see
I seen a chicken boy fucking a sheep
I say "Mister Mister, what the fuck you trying to do"
Ah, Billy Billy Boo
Barrels in your mouth, bullets to your head
The back of your neck's all over the shed
Boomshacka boom chop chop bang
I'm 2 Dope and it ain't no thang
To cut a chicken, trigger's clickin
Blow off his head but his feet still kickin
Last as long as you can my man
Cuz when that chicken head hits the fan you got
Blood guts fingers and toes (3x)
Sittin front row at the chicken show so...

Who's going chicken huntin, we's goin' chicken huntin' (3x)
Cut a motherfucking chicken up, right!

Went to Kentucky, I got lucky
Met this hot-collared bitch named Bucky
Riding on a chicken, milking a cow
Hittin switches in a drop top [url=http://linx.chitika.net/track?target=http%3A//rc.us-east.srv.overture.com/d/sr/%3Fxargs%3D20ALMtyckNM2jvxqfdyJBDGDsc6329anr_zudNAVOHSng__2o8m14raoZj83CTiP8j-H9NDkjQX7-1X_banzd7zdXrLnPywQdSI4iEfN6Dufn-7VZolurG-NjSEHVeK6uxaSroGySFW7E7c6nGrmPLrL_kHG97wtBlEP08BirboaTDujz6Ce3wtBS5hiVrCw4GcwoATJAOTn-etxF1Au5p8rdMd9dSyGMMsg.000000024ca26891%26op%3D36ef997&xargs=Rc5NdN2%2BJCsFwO%2BKxJSabJWoLJ0lOYFsUiKny6LiVzbz7SIIDwuBTWyeCWc0vAE8pl6zmv07NRNI791QgtY8akNFBgraoaJgKhfkFLEML6ZVEwmI1REuexDOgzjCTqIOvyyJuCUItUo6HLQOZjmcEFww9A3eLV1njRAM/ktTQskhn8NdpjmnmlvvvkGGPHyJGXjBI1RXPTAzEO1M4u7BTO2qpRPWKvPD/UYQNqBK2CVMtxKRcK75Et9REtXjUzB2j/BAmLEB6szywxt5mW5x39fRAHdLlEVYwro46ggwaht36D03kG4P92m7Vzk/ZSXq&keyword=low%20ride%20tractor]low ride tractor[/url] plow
