What lyrics are you listening to now? (pt2)

[rollinder]

If Queen Boadicea is long dead and gone
Still then the spirit
In her children's children's children
It lives on

If you've lost your faith in love and music
Oh the end won't be long
Because if it's gone for you then I too may lose it
And that would be wrong

You know I've tried so hard to keep myself from falling
Back into my bad old ways
And it chars my heart to always hear you calling
Calling for the good old days
Because there were no good old days
These are the good old days

It's not about, tenements and needles
And all the evils in their eyes
And the backs of their minds
Daisy chains and school yard games
And a list of things we said we'd do tomorrow
A list of things we said we'd do tomorrow

The arcadian dream has all fallen through
But the Albion sails on course
So lets man the decks and hoist the rigging
Because the pig mans found the source
And theres twelve rude boys on the oars

 

[Roadkill]

What a hideous forest
Surrounded Whitehaven
Twisted black mountains
Wolves howled in madness
Never I ventured
Beyond the stone towers
As dusk spread her black wings
At the edge of the dark wild wood

But one windy evening
Gathering timbers
Under white elm trees
And shadows, I saw her
The darkest of beauties
With her basket of cherries
The wind at her black skirts
Like the haze of the wild dark wood

She turned in her terror
A madness possessed her
In shadows, she clawed me
We screamed in the brambles
Hunters came running
With torches and axes
Treetop to treetop
Flames tore through the dark wild wood

Back down, they dragged us
Passed the stone towers
The church bells were ringing
The sky screamed in flashes
But we stood in the churchyard
Laughing like jackals
As the stone towers tumbled
And bowed to the wild dark wood

 

[rollinder]

in memory of Firky, you cunt

Two jumps in a week,
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle,
watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror,
you're turning into something you are not

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Drying up in conversation,
you'll be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces,
you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you
when you think you've got the world all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit on you,
you'll be the one screaming out

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

Oh, it's the best thing that you ever had,
the best thing that you ever, ever had.
It's the best thing that you ever had,
the best thing you have had has gone away.

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high,
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

[pengaleng]

You don't come around no more like you used to do
Oh god I miss your company
Your innocence you know just like
Yeah like it used to be
And how I need you here with me


You just kept on asking why
Never wanting to really try


Cause all the times I've cried
All this pain I've tried to hide
What am I supposed to dream
When nothings ever what it seems


The pain it drifts from day to day
And it makes think
That how I wish it would subside
To smile again all the fears be gone
Find my self respect
There's nothing done with that effect


You just kept on asking why
Never wanting to really try


Cause all the times I've cried
All this pain I've tried to hide
What am I supposed to dream
When nothings ever what it seems


Oh...
You never were the one
Oh...
You never were the one


Cause all the times I've cried
All this pain I've tried to hide
What am I supposed to dream
When nothings ever what it seems

Cause all the times I've cried
All this pain I've tried to hide
What am I supposed to dream
When nothings ever what it seems

This is the dinner prepared
This is the dress that I made
This is the child I brought up
And this is the woman you laid
This is the woman you laid

This is the perfume I wore
This is the hotel we stayed
This is the way that I lay
And this is the woman you laid
This is the woman you laid

We promise ourselves this is no one-night stand
Let us draw all the curtains and strike up the band
And Im thrilled by gentlest touch of your hand we pretend

Theres a tear, theres a tear
Not through confusion through fear, through fear

This is the smile that I wore
This is the song that we played
This is the way that I lay
And this is the woman you laid, this is the woman you laid

Next morning our eyes filled with sleepy regret
A kiss and goodbye and a long cigarette
But the pillow I lay on is cold and its wet
Cant pretend

Its a tear, its a tear
Not through confusion, through fear, through fear
And knowing at least that love came so near
Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear

Roll out the red carpets and unplug the phone
Root out the photos youve already shown
Cos this is one night you wont sleep alone
Just one night

Theres a tear theres a tear
Not through confusion through fear, through fear
And knowing at least that love came so near
Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear

Theres a tear, theres a tear
Not through confusion, through fear
Not through confusion, through fear.

Hey now, hey now now, sing this corrosion to me
Hey now, hey now now, sing this corrosion to me
Hey now, hey now now, sing this corrosion to me
Hey now, hey now now, sing...

Gimme siren, child and do you hear me?
Gimme siren, child, and do you hear me call?
Sing, child, of right and wrong
Gimme things that dont last long
Gimme siren, child, and do you hear me call?

I don't know what went wrong - a few hours ago I was drinking tea and watching Midsomer Murders. Now I'm finishing my second bottle of Rioja and listening to Sisters of Mercy

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
Beats a cup of coffee
For starting off the day

Just a little lovin'
When the world is yawnin'
Makes you feel wake up feeling
Good things are coming your way

This old world
Wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and everybody in it had, yeah

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
That little extra somethin'
To kinda see them through

Nothing turns the day on
Really gets it dawnin'
Like a little bit of lovin'
From some lovin' someone like you

This old world
Wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and everybody in it had

Just a little lovin'
Early in the mornin'
(Just a little lovin')
(When the world is yawnin')
Just a little bit of lovin' ah
Oh, in the morning
Nothing turns the day on
Really gets it dawnin'
Make a little bit of lovin'
It's so good, it's so good

 

[Roadkill]

There's nothing for your comfort
in the place where I was born
Someone's got the roses
'cause my people got the thorns;
My people are the poor ones,
their country made of stones
Their wealth is in persistence,
in stories and in bones

and one green hill, one green hill
one far green hill we carry everywhere

The tide must have a turning,
the wind must have a change
Children go to cities
where the stars look strange
And memory's a winding path,
shining in the rain
To places where we parted
and we shall not meet again

on one green hill, one green hill
one far green hill we carry everywhere

And somewhere in the story,
it came as no surprise
One time, for all time, the rain got in my eyes…

It might be tears of laughter,
it might be tears of rage
You hate it and you love it
and it rattles at your cage
My people are survivors, living in the cracks
Whatever bad luck hands them,
they keep on coming back

to one green hill, one green hill
one far green hill we carry everywhere

(I think Eddy Grant's read that thread/ heard about Offline )

You invite me to a war party
Me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be inviting me to
A war party, me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
You killed off all the Indians
And you killed off all the slaves
But not quite
So you killed off the remains
You a look for me, and I'm looking for you
I can't believe what they say bout you is true
That you're a bad star just like Pharoah
You killed the children just like Pharoah
Now you sent a ticket for me
It don't have R.S.V.P

Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you

You've invited all our wise men
Many times before
To dance around your fires
And even out your scores
And when the tolls taken
Of the valiant and the brave
The only decoration is the one upon the graves

Oh no You're a bad star- just like Pharoah
You killed the children just like Pharoah
Now you sent a ticket for me
And it don't have R.S.V.P

Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Everybody seen to be inviting me to
A war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you


Please don't send no ticket for me
No don't send no ticket
No don't send no ticket for me
If it don't have R.S.V.P

Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Everybody seen to be inviting me to
A war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you

Do you wanna go, say no
Do you wanna go, say no
Do you wanna go, say no
Me no wanna go right now
Me no wanna go right now
They invite me to war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you

It's the second September I have known you
Four years or so ago, I rode a pony, called him Truth
We didn`t know the way so it took us till today to get here

And all that time, I felt just fine
I held so many people in my suitcase heart
I was glad to let the whole thing go
It was taken by the wind and snow
And I still didn't know that I was waiting
For a girl on a slow pony home

I can remember when I first saw you
You said in my photograph I looked more far away
I laughed and smiled and didn't say "I am a bit afraid to be here."

Setting free the anchor and looking past the shore
It's a sea of horses on ships with no sails, no motors, no oars

Now we're cleaning the windows between us two
Funny, you do it once, and then again, and pretty soon
the fingerprints and dust...
But I've begun to trust the view here.

When I get to Warwick Avenue
Meet me by the entrance of the tube
We can talk things over a little time
But promise me you wont step out of line

When I get to Warwick Avenue
Please drop the past and be true
Don’t think we’re okay
Just because I’m here
You hurt me bad but I won't shed a tear

I’m leaving you for the last time baby
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
I’ve been confused
Outta my mind lately
You think you’re loving,
But I want to be free, baby
You’ve hurt me.

When I get to Warwick Avenue
We’ll spend an hour but no more than two
Our only chance to speak once more
I showed you the answers, now here’s the door.

When I get to Warwick Avenue
I’ll tell you baby that we’re through!

I’m leaving you for the last time baby
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
I’ve been confused
An outta my mind lately
You think you’re loving,
But you don’t love me
I want to be free,
Baby you’ve hurt me.

All the days spent together
I wished for better,
*But* I didn’t want the train to come
Now it’s departed, I’m broken hearted
Seems like we never started
All those days spent together
When I wished for better
And I didn’t want the train to come.
Oh, no.

You think you’re loving
But you don’t love me
I want to be free, baby
You’ve hurt me
You don’t love me
I want to be free
Baby you’ve hurt me

You just took in hiding, from yourself always slip-sliding, everyday a mask your wearing, trying to show your surviving, on the run from soul 2 soul, but you can never find your goal, you lose the spirit at the cost and now your soul it could be lost.

When you just had enough, and you see no way out, its alright don't panic, things can work for your crew.

And its ok is what I say, when im praying away, and there's a hand from on high, god is never failing,

Everyday is like a battle but we'll overcome, when we get back in the saddle faith will bring us on.

Everyday is like a battle but we'll overcome, when we get back in the saddle faith will bring us on.

All the promises I have, hidden deep in my heart, I recall after all, of my worst existance, it simply says that when or less, that feeling blessed in my life, he will send the word I need, to restore contempt me.

I can always relay on my faith to, get by, we all can if we try.

Everyday is like a battle but we'll overcome, when we get back in the saddle faith will bring us on.

Everyday is like a battle but we'll overcome, when we get back in the saddle faith will bring us on.

I said farewell to Erin,
only seven years ago,
When asked where I was headed,
I said: “Jaysus, I dunno!?”
I stepped ashore near Bangalore,
not a tosser in me hand,
By the time I hit Darjeeling,
I was feeling mighty grand!

You can keep your forty shades of green,
they only make me blue,
You can stick your eggs and bacon,
boys, I’ll have a Vindaloo,
I found a place in India,
so far across the foam,
You can call me Punjab Paddy,
boys, I’m never comin’ home

I dreamed I got a letter
from me darling Josephine,
She asked me would I marry her,
back home in Skibbereen,
But the girls out here
have almond eyes
and jasmine-scented hair,
And there’s things in the Kama Sutra
that they never do in Clare!

So I’ll spend me days relaxing
in me Punjab paradise,
No more I’ll dig the taties,
I’ll stick to tea and rice.
I’ll be sippin’ mango lassi
with the lassies in the shade,
While yer man
called Ravi Shankar plays
“The Boys of the Oul’ Brigade!”

You can keep your Miltown Malbay,
you can chuck yer Galway Bay,
You’ll never see
the sun go down on Delhi or Bombay,
I found a place in India,
so far across the foam,
You can call me Punjab Paddy,
boys, I’m never comin’ home.

From Bohola to Benares,
Inchigeela to Lahore
Kamakura, Siliguri,
Peshawar, Sahrunapore
Amritsar to Sanawar,
Simla, and Pinjore
I got trolleyed on Diwali,
and I'm going back for more!

Someday I’ll be a holy man
with saffron on me nose,
I’ll shave my head
like Gandhi
and I’ll never wear no clothes,
To see the Irish Guru,
they’ll come from near and far,
Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna,
Whiskey in the Jar!

You can keep your Michael Flatley
with his tattoos on his chest,
Fare thee well,
Sweet Anna Liffey,
it’s the Ganges I love best,
I found a place in India
so far across the foam,
You can call me Punjab Paddy,
boys, I’m never comin’ home,
I’m never comin’ home!
I’m never comin’ home!

Idiot job 203
Newspapers shoot their letters at me
I'm alone at last with every other me
Guardian help me, angel shoot
All you ghosts stand by and salute
And explain:

Why is everything so locked up?

Lake is empty, lake is full
People say it's a push and pull
I know I did the wrong mistake again.
Guardian help me, angel shoot
All you ghosts stand by and salute
And explain:

Why is everything so locked up?

I don't blame it on the front row
don't blame it on them ruined glass
don't blame it on the signal
don't blame it on the steering wheel
don't blame it on the logbooks

'Cause I know they stray
Like all the cars in NY
Like all the lights on New Year
Like all these gloomy planets
You know they stay


Anyway.

Does your heroin lose its glamour on the washboard overnight?
When your mother says don't do it, do you crank it up in spite?
Do you steal your brother's Giro? Do you talk a load of shite?
Does your heroin lose its glamour on the washboard overnight?


and


The singer out of Slipknot went to Rome to see the Pope
The singer out of Slipknot went to Rome to see the Pope
The singer out of Slipknot went to Rome to see the Pope
And the Pope said to his aide
Who the fucking hell are Slipknot?
Who the fucking hell are Slipknot?
Who the fucking hell are Slipknot?
In relation to me getting out of bed

 

[heinous seamus]

Dis me I don't mind bad luck
or it's much cooler to be kind
so let's get trashed on tonic wine
and we can all crash round at mine

cos we're all looking for some creed to follow
I've been eating all day and I still feel hollow
as if I know how long my fricking dick is
we were the last true sons of bitches

did they teach you shit at school?
yeah like we're all wonderful
we've all got things that make us evil
we've all got things that make us cool

and so I'll try to see the world in your way
the pillow's warm from where your head lay
it's a victory just in out the day

and I'll try to see the world in your eyes
I'm insignificant that's my size
in the greater scheme of things
I am nothing

so I took a minor role in my life
behind two kids a cat and my wife
you can keep your blood
you can keep your worry
I'm just looking for my voice

did they teach you shit at school?
yeah like we're all wonderful
we've all got things that make us evil
we've all got things that make us cool

and so I'll try to see the world in your way
the pillow's warm from where your head lay
it's a victory just in out the day

and I'll try to see the world in your eyes
I'm insignificant that's my size
in the greater scheme of things
I am nothing

I am nothing.

Dead Finks Don't Talk

Oh cheeky cheeky
Oh naughty sneaky
You're so perceptive
And I wonder how you knew.

But dead finks don't walk too well
A bad sense of direction
And so they stumble round in threes
Such a strange collection.

Oh, you headless chicken
Can those poor teeth take so much kicking?
You're always so charming
As you make your way up here.

And dead finks don't dress too well
No discrimination
To be a zombie all the time
Requires such dedication.

"Oh please sir, will you let it go by,
'Cos I failed both tests with my legs both tied
In my place the stuff is all there
I've been ever so sad for a very long time.

My my, they wanted the works:
Can you this? and that? I never got a letter back
More fool me, bless my soul
More fool me, bless my soul."

Oh perfect masters
They thrive on disasters
They all look so harmless
Till they find their way up here.

But dead finks don't talk too well
They've got a shaky sense of diction
It's not so much a living hell
It's just a dying fiction.

Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score..
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero - another mindless crime.
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime.
Hold the line!
Does anybody want to take it anymore?
The Show must go on!
The Show must go on!
Inside my heart is breaking,
My make-up may be flaking,
But my smile, still, stays on!

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance.
Another heartache - another failed romance.
On and on!
Does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess i'm learning
I must be warmer now..
I'll soon be turning round the corner now.
Outside the dawn is breaking,
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free!

The Show must go on!
The Show must go on! Yeah!
Ooh! Inside my heart is breaking!
My make-up may be flaking!
But my smile, still, stays on!
Yeah! oh oh oh

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies,
Fairy tales of yesterday, will grow but never die,
I can fly, my friends!

The Show must go on! Yeah!
The Show must go on!
I'll face it with a grin!
I'm never giving in!
On with the show!

I'll top the bill!
I'll overkill!
I have to find the will to carry on!
On with the,
On with the show!

The Show must go on

 

[rollinder]

Remember a day before today
A day when you were young.
Free to play alone with time
Evening never came.
Sing a song that can't be sung
Without the morning's kiss
Queen - you shall be it if you wish
Look for your king
Why can't we play today
Why can't we stay that way
Climb your favorite apple tree
Try to catch the sun
Hide from your little brother's gun
Dream yourself away
Why can't we reach the sun
Why can't we blow the years away
Blow away
Blow away
Remember
Remember

 

[rollinder]

Last night I had too much to drink
Sitting in a club with so many fools
Playing to rules
Trying to impress but feeling rather empty
I had another drink
Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink
What a way to spend that evening
They all turn up with their friends
Playing the game
But in the scene I should have been
Far away
Away - away - away - away - away
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before
I open the door to an empty room
Then I forget
The telephone rings and someone speaks
She would very much like to go out to a show
So what can I do - I can't think what to say
She sees through anyway
Away - away - away - away - away
Out of the front door I go
Traffic's moving rather slow
Arriving late, there she waits
Looking very angry, as cross as she can be
Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before
I open the door to an empty room
Then I forget

[Nougat]

When I think about the turn my life has taken
I know it's because of you, that I receive so many blessings
I had a home but no privacy, I didn't know a thing about my legacy
When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came
And you did, just what you said, for that I'll love you forever
You kept, your word to me, for that I'll love you forever

A promise, is a promise in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way

I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old
Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she
abandoned her dreams to nourish his own
It wasn't easy for the two of them, but she
knew she had to give him a chance
At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed
And she did, just what she say, for that he'll love her forever
She kept her word to him, for that he'll love her forever


A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way
A man's only as good as his word


Her wedding day and she's thinking 'bout the way he won her affection
She was so cynical about love 'cause she
didn't want to be heart broken again
He looked her in her eye with sincerity, said he
only wanted to protect her so she
Took a chance on him and she's glad she did because he came for real
And he did, just what he said, for that she'll love him forever
He kept his word to her, for that she'll love him forever


A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way
No way, there ain't no way
A man's only as good as his word

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,
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on,
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on...

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,
I knew that it would be with you,
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on,
Lay on, lay on, lay on, lay on...

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...

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...

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 me a prison, show me a jail,
Show me a prisoner whose face is going pale
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
And there but for fortune, may go you or I

Show me the alley, show me the train,
Show me a hobo who sleeps out in the rain,
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, may go you or go I -- you and I.

Show me the whiskey stains on the floor,
Show me the drunken man as he stumbles out the door,
And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, may go you or go I -- you and I.

Show me the country where bombs had to fall,
Show me the ruins of buildings once so tall,
And I'll show you a young land with so many reasons why
There but for fortune, go you or go I -- you and I.
You and I,
There but for fortune, go you or go I -- you and I.

 

[Tank Girl]

You hiss and groan and you constantly moan
But you don't ever go away
That's because
All you need is me

You roll your eyes up to the skies
Mock horrified
But you're still here
All you need is me

There's so much destruction
All over the world
And all you can do is
Complain about me

You bang your head against the wall
And say you're sick of it all
Yet you remain
'Cause all you need is me

And then you offer your one and only joke
And you ask me what will I be
When I grow up to be a man
Uhm, nothing!

There's a soft voice singing in your head
Who could this be?
I do believe it's me

There's a naked man standing, laughing in your dreams
You know who it is
But you don't like what it means

There's so much destruction
All over the world
And all you can do is
Complain about me

I was a small, fat child in a council house
There was only one thing I ever dreamed about
And Fate has just
Handed it to me - whoopee

You don't like me, but you love me
Either way you're wrong
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
