Here's some of my favorites, just because of the originality involved:
System of a Down: Bounce Jump, Bounce, Down, Up I went out on a date, With a girl, a bit late, She had so many friends, Gliding through many hands. I brought my pogo stick, Just to show her a trick, She had so many friends, Gliding through many hands. Jump Pogo?.. Bounce Pogo, Down Pogo, Up Pogo Unannounced twister games, All players with no names, They lined up double quick, But just one pogo stick, Everyone gets to play, Runaway, expose', It was so exotic, But just one pogo stick. Jump Pogo?.. Bounce Pogo, Down Pogo, Up Pogo Oh, I like to spread you out, Touching whoever's behind Jump Pogo?.. Bounce Pogo, Down Pogo, Up Pogo I'll post more later. |

We are building a religion
We are building it bigger We are widening the corridors and adding more lanes We are building a religion A limited edition We are now accepting callers for the pendant key chain It is usless to resist us To resist us is useless His cigarette is burning but it never seems to ash He is grooming his poodle He is living comfort eagle You can meet at his location but you better bring cash Now his hat is on backwards He can show you his tatoos He is in the music business He is calling you," dude." Now today is tomorrow and tomorrow today and yesterday is weaving in and out He is handling the money He is serving the food He knows about the party He is calling you," DUDE." Now do you believe In the one big sign The doublwide shine On the bootheels of your prime Doesn't matter if you're skinny Doesn't matter if you're fat You can dress up as a SULTAN In your onion head hat. Take a bite of this apple Mr. corperate EVENTS Take a walk thru the jungle of carboard shanties and tents Some people drink Pepsi Some people drink Coke A morning DJ Says democracy's a joke *kind of repeats itself from here. all I've gots to say: CAKE-the band of choice.:D |
Jay-Z? Oh man. He's a pizzunk. Decent music at times, but needlessly vulgar, and it's all starting to sound the same to me...I call it "Green Day Syndrome." :D Oh, and that "I WILL EAT YOUR SOUL" stuff is pretty freaky. Call me nuts, but I don't get "Aphex Twin." That "Boy/Girl Song" thing had, what, no words at all? Music was okay...but d*mnitt, I wanna sing along. :)
Anyway, one of my favorites: "Come Together" (chorus omitted :()
Here come ol' flat top
He come groovin' up slowly He's got joo joo eyeball He one holy roller He got hair down to his knees Got to be a joker he just do what he please He wear no shoeshine He's got toe jam football He's got monkey finger He shoot coca-cola He say "I know you, you know me" One thing I can tell you is you got to be free Come together right now over me He bag production He's got walrus gum-boot He's got ono sideboard He one spinal cracker He got feet down through his knees Hold you in his armchair You can feel his disease Come together right now over me He roller coaster He's got early warning He's got muddy water He one mojo filter He say "one and one and one is three" Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see Come together right now over me Oh, and MJ's new album is out! "Heartbreaker" is particular good (http://display.lyrics.astraweb.com:2000/display.cgi?michael_jackson..invincible..heartbreaker). I think most of you would really dig "2000 Watts," too. Great, upbeat, song. |
Good 'ol MJ, 'eh, T? Well his dance music might kick @ss...but he's no wordslinger. What's that one song when the middle part has like that african sounding chant in it? Sounds like," MammasaymaamasayI'm mufasa." :laugh: What the heck is that part even saying? I can't stand listening to music that you can't understand unless you have the lyrics sittin' right in front of you.
|
That's "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" -- which is a great song! It's fun, and odd. "You're a vegetable!" :) Anyway, some of his lyrics are crap, but I think "Heartbreaker" has got some good ones. Of course, the tune is 100 times better. "2000 Watts" has simple, straightforward lyrics. I admire how simple it is, while still being a great song.
|
As far as simple lyrics go, I do like MJ's P.Y.T.- But that's because I'm a dancin' fool. No one busts down a dance tune better than Jackson...well, Madonna's a close second, when I'm in the mood for that kind of dancin'. I'd rather get dirty and low down to some gritty rock, like the Black Crowes: Downtown Money Waster
to my low down downtown money waster your only saving grace is that i liked to taste ya but your flower is spoiled to easy to make you you got a .38 and your book of revelations i got a .44 and a load of temptation i am a rounder, like to round around two for one at the store on the corner little girl like to drink and sniffin' powders like the bars that stay open after hours like the boys that go over 24-7 too many late nights and you don't go to heaven i am a rounder like to round around |
THE BALLAD by Millencolin
The last selection in the ballgame. Does never get a pass. Not appreciated's just his first name. He's the scapegoat of the class. There are no friends to cheer him up and no girls, no sweet romance. It's impossible to expand, when you never get a second chance. Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone? Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery. He's not going to the school-prom. He said he had the flu. Trumped-up excuses as he told mom. - I´m safer here with you. She told her son. - Someday, they'll all be sorry for mistreating you. Don't be afraid my son and trust me, -You'll be someone they will look up to. Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone? Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery... Do you care to see? Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone? Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery. |
In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
of every head he's had the pleasure to have known and the people that come and go, stop and say hello. On the corner is a banker with a motorcar and little children laugh at him behind his back and the banker never wears a mask, in the pouring rain, very strange. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, there beneath the blue suburban skies, I sit a meanwhile back... In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass and in his pocket is a portrait of the queen. He likes to keep his fire engine clean, it's a clean machine. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes for a fish and finger pies, in summer, meanwhile back, Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray and though she feels as if she's in her place, she is anyway. In Penny Lane the barber shoots another customer, we see the banker sitting waiting for a trim and the fireman rushes in from the pouring rain, very strange. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, there beneath the blue suburban skies, I sit and meanwhile back, Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, there beneath the blue suburban skies... Penny Lane! Standing in the dock at Southampton, trying to get to Holland or France. The man in the mac said, "You've got to turn back". You know they didn't even give us a chance. Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be. The way things are going, they're going to crucify me. Finally made the plane into Paris. Honey mooning down by the Seine. Peter Brown called to say, "You can make it O.K., you can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain". Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be. The way things are going They're going to crucify me. Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, talking in our beds for a week. The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?". I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace". Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be. The way things are going, they're going to crucify me. Saving up your money for a rainy day, giving all your clothes to charity. Last night the wife said, "Oh boy, when you're dead, you don't take nothing with you, but your soul - think!" Made a lightning trip to Vienna, eating chocolate cake in a bag. The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head, They look just like two gurus in drag". Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, they're going to crucify me. Caught an early plane back to London. Fifty acorns tied in a sack. The men from the press said, "We wish you success, It's good to have the both of you back". Christ you know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be. The way things are going, they're going to crucify me. The way things are going, they're going to crucify me. Fat and docile, big and dumb They look so stupid, they aren't much fun Cows aren't fun They eat to grow, grow to die Die to be et at the hamburger fry Cows well done Nobody thunk it, nobody knew No one imagined the great cow guru Cows are one He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal Cow Se Tongue He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd Cow doldrums He mooed, "we must fight, escape or we'll die!" Cows gathered around, cause the steaks were so high Bad cow pun But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate Loaded into a truck, where he rode to his fate Cows are bummed He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy No one suspected he was packing an Uzi Cows with guns They came with a needle to stick in his thigh He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye Cows well hung Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor Run cows run! He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay "We are free roving bovines. We run free today. We will fight for bovine freedom And hold our large heads high! We will run free with the Buffalo, or die!" Cows with guns They crashed the gate in a great stampede Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed Cows have fun Sixty police cars were piled in a heap Covered in cow pies, covered up deep Much cow dung Black smoke rising, darkening the day Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way The president said, "Enough is enough These uppity cattle, its time to get tough!" Cow dung flung The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief Tomorrow at noon, they would all be ground beef Cows on buns The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed They mooed their last moos, they chewed their last hay Cows outgunned The order was given to turn cows to Whoppers Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers. . . . This day and age we're living in Gives cause for apprehension With speed and new invention And things like fourth dimension Yet we get a trifle weary With Mr. Einstein's theory So we must get down to earth at times Relax relieve the tension And no matter what the progress Or what may yet be proved The simple facts of life are such They cannot be removed You must remember this A kiss is still 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 That no one can deny Well, 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 Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers As time goes by I could go on and on and on forever with brilliant songs. But I shant. |
the freshmen* by The Verve Pipe
When I was young I knew everything and she a punk who rarely ever took advice now i'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice I can't be held responsible cause she was touching her face I won't be held responsible she fell in love in the first place For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise for the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her his girl took a week's worth of valium and slept now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says I can't be held responsible cause she was touching her face I won't be held responsible she fell in love in the first place For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise for the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen We've tried to wash our hands of all of this we never talk of our lacking relationships and how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor we fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say I can't be held responsible cause she was touching her face I won't be held responsible she fell in love in the first place For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise for the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins we were merely freshmen |
Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humor me before I have to go Deep in thought, I forgive everyone As the cluttered streets greet me once again I know I can't be late Supper's waiting on the table Tomorrow's just an excuse away So I turn my collar up and face the cold On my own The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk Steeple guide me to my heart and home The sun is out and up and down again I know I'll make it Love can last forever Graceful swans of never topple to the earth And you Can make it last, forever you Can make it last, forever you And for a moment I lose myself Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world I've journeyed here and there and back again But in the same old haunts I still find my friends Mysteries not ready to reveal Sympathies I'm ready to return I'll make the effort, love can last forever Graceful swans of never topple to the earth Tomorrow's just an excuse, tomorrow's just an excuse And you Can make it last, forever you You can make it last, forever you "Thirty Three" by Smashing Pumpkins _____ Wake.. from your sleep Dry away your tears Today we escape, we escape Pack.. and get dressed Before your father hears us Before all hell breaks loose Breathe, keep breathing Don't lose your nerve Breathe, keep breathing I can't do this alone Sing.. us a song A song to keep us warm There's such a chill, such a chill You can laugh A spineless laugh We hope your rules and wisdom choke you Now we are one in everlasting peace We hope that you choke, that you choke We hope that you choke, that you choke We hope that you choke, that you choke Radiohead, "Exit music (for a film)" ___ Yo, it's one universal law but two sides to every story Three strikes and you're bitten for life, mandatory Four MC's murdered in the last four years I ain't tryin to be the fifth one, the millenium is here Yo it's 6 Million Ways to Die, from the seven deadly thrills Eight-year olds gettin found with 9 mill's It's 10 P.M., where your seeds at? What's the deal? He on the hill pumpin crills to keep they bellies filled Lighten they a-s with heavy steel Sights on the pretty sh-t in life Young soldiers tryin to earn they next stripe When the average minimum wage is $5.15 You best believe you gotta find a new grind to get cream The white unemployment rate, is nearly more than triple for black So frontliners got they gun in your back Bubblin crack, jewel theft and robbery to combat poverty And end up in the global jail economy Stiffer stipulations attached to each sentence Budget cutbacks but increased police presence And even if you get out of prison still livin Join the other five million under state supervision This is business, no faces just lines and statistics From your phone, your zip code, to S-S-I digits The system breaks man, child, and women into figures Two columns for who is, and who ain't n-ggas Numbers is hardly real and they never have feelings But you push too hard, even numbers got limits Why did one straw break the camel's back? Here's the secret: There's a million other straws underneath it - it's all mathematics Mos Def, "Mathmatics" |

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today... Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace... You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world... You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one I'm feeling in a reflective and sad mood tonight. |
I'm half sad, half annoyed, because that song bugs the heck out of me. :D Lenin had his moments, though. "Beautiful Boy" was particularly nice.

TWT are you saying that "Imagine" by JOHN LENNON...bugs you?!
Hell shall break loose over this one, I see. |
One of the greatest songs ever made, and made by one of the greatests artists of the 1990's. Actually read these lyrics because they are quite powerful:
Changes by 2Pac Come on come on I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself is life worth living should I blast myself? I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch Cops give a damn about a negro pull the trigger kill a ***** he's a hero Give crack to the kids who the hell cares one less ugly mouth on the welfare First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other It's time to fight back that's what Huey said 2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere unless we share with each other We gotta start makin' changes learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers and that's how it's supposed to be How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me? I'd love to go back to when we played as kids but things changed, and that's the way it is [chorus] Come on come on That's just the way it is Things'll never be the same That's just the way it is aww yeah [Repeat] I see no changes all I see is racist faces misplaced hate makes disgrace to races We under I wonder what it takes to make this one better place, let's erase the wasted Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right 'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight and only time we chill is when we kill each other it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other And although it seems heaven sent We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks But some things will never change try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game Now tell me what's a mother to do bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you You gotta operate the easy way "I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid," Well hey, well that's the way it is [chorus] We gotta make a change... It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes. Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live and let's change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do what we gotta do, to survive. And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do But now I'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp slap you up You gotta learn to hold ya own they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone But tell the cops they can't touch this I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool my mama didn't raise no fool And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back 'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs some buck that I roughed up way back comin' back after all these years rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh [chorus] [Edited by OG- on 11-04-2001] |
My cousin is obsessed with that song.
Last Christmas I had to listen to it so many times over and over again. I got a liking for it, but I don't know. Question: Is he dead, or in hiding?? |
