What lyrics are you listening to now? (pt2)

[dynamicbaddog]

She was standin' near the railroad track when she first flagged me down
I was drivin' outta town
All alone


Her face held every feelin' in but her eyes gave her away
One look and you would say
No way home


Walkin' through an airport lounge
Somewhere way off in spain
Through a scratchy intercom it came
Loud and clear...


Chorus:
You're worn and used and you can't talk
Your flight has been postponed, now you must walk
Straight up that hill¨now you must push your own rock



The iceburg cut into the hull while the captain rang the bell
How he went down, who could tell
Cold as ice


Beneath the waves the ocean liner sank into the sand
You still could hear the band
Auld lang syne


Out in space their orbit then just started to decay
She was burnin' up the atmosphere
Burn away


Chorus repeat

 

[Rollem]

You couldn't have planned it
I don't understand it
Don't know why you went and threw it all away
Yesterday
We had it all and you threw it all away
I don't know why you couldn't stay
Yesterday

You should have believed it
You would have recived it yeah
Hello to the woken
Goodbye to all the broken
Word is spoken yeah

You couldn't have planned it
I don't understand it
Don't know why you went and threw it all away
Yesterday
We had it all and you threw it all away
I don't know why you couldn't stay
Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday

Hello to the woken
Goodbye to all the broken
Word is spoken yeah
You were all wrapped up in a blizzard
Coke choked up to the gizzard
On a snowy summer day

You were all wrapped up in a blizzard
Coke choked up to the gizzard
Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday

((((((((maddie)))))))

PLEASE don't

Get out from that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans
Get out from that kitchen and rattle those pots and pans
Well, roll my breakfast 'cause I'm a hungry man

[Chorus:]
I said Shake, rattle and roll
I said Shake, rattle and roll
I said Shake, rattle and roll
I said Shake, rattle and roll
Well, you never do nothin' to save your doggone soul

Wearin' those dresses, your hair done up so nice
Wearin' those dresses, your hair done up so nice
You look so warm, but your heart is cold as ice

[Chorus]

I'm like a one-eyed cat, peepin' in a sea-food store
I'm like a one-eyed cat, peepin' in a sea-food store
I can look at you, tell you don't love me no more

I believe you're doin' me wrong and now I know
I believe you're doin' me wrong and now I know
The more I work, the faster my money goes

[Chorus]

Shake, Rattle And Roll

(from down the road, with windows open)

 

[dynamicbaddog]

Sometimes I don't like what you say

Sometimes I don't like what you wear

Sometimes we don't agree when we are going out

But I love you when you sleep


Sometimes you talk on endlessly

Without ever listening to me

But I could almost forgive anything at all

'Cos I love you when you sleep


I love you when you sleep

It's a moment I can keep

Like an old bus ticket or a photograph

You don't wink or whistle or pout

Or any other thing that I've left out

Looks can kill, talk is cheap

But I love you when you sleep

Even a hard man or a creep

Can look okay when he's asleep


Some people have a lot to prove

With the way they dress and undress

And the way they move

If you should wake up and you're like that

Soon you'll never know

What you've been sleeping through


I love you when you sleep

It's a moment I can keep

Like an old bus ticket or a photograph

You don't wink or whistle or pout

Or any other thing that I've left out

Looks can kill, talk is cheap

But I love you when you sleep

Even a hard man or a creep

Can look pretty good when he's asleep

 

[MightyAphrodite]

I said "Mama, he's crazy and he scares me
But I want him by my side
though he's wild and he's bad
and sometimes just plain mad
I need him to keep me satisfied"

I said "Papa, don't cry cause it's alright
And I see you in some of his ways
Though he might not give me the life that you wanted
I'll love him the rest of my days"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Brother, you speak to me of passion
You said never to settle for nothing less
Well, it's in the way he walks,
it's in the way he talks
His smile, his anger and his kisses"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Sister, don't you understand?
He's all I ever wanted in a man
I'm tired of sittin' around the T.V. every night
Hoping I'm finding a Mr. Right"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

He says "Baby, don't listen to what they say
There comes a time when you have to break away"
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life
It's time to let them go and become my wife"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

^^^ lovely

the national - forever after days

on my feet i stand tonight, stand and step up to the light
an extraordinary man unbroken in the breaking light

forever after days, stand and make myself a crown
to the table i step alone, hold my own above the ground
take my shot under the light, heroes come a common way
pull myself into the sky, wrap me in the banner i made

on my feet i stand tonight, stand alone inside the edge
an extraordinary man, everything starts and holds me there

forever after days, stand and make myself a crown
to the table i step alone, hold my own above the ground
take my shot under the light, heroes come a common way
pull myself into the sky, wrap me in the banner i made

 

[tufty79]

Keep your legs from shaking, fill your eyes with new tears,
Don't ask questions, you don't know your name,
Something for everyone, try to win prizes,
Stay young and quiet.

Tall Saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you,
Bubbles to the chandelier,
I'm in your hands tonight, Tall Saint,
Stay behind me.

Don't tell everybody at the table about your dreams,
They're too amazing, it'll melt their minds,
Take 'em to Hollywood, cut out the good parts,
Become millionaires.

Tall Saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you,
Bubbles to the chandelier,
I've been looking for you all night, Tall Saint,
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint.

In my city, I didn't make a sound,
When I fell over and cracked my crown,
Heard a woman say "stay down,
Champion, stay down."

Tall Saint, I'm devoted with a glass of champagne to you,
Bubbles to the chandelier,
I'm in your hands tonight, Tall Saint,
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint,
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint.

In my city, I didn't make a sound,
When I fell over and cracked my crown,
Heard a woman say "stay down,
Champion, stay down."

But I got up, got in a car,
Said "I don't think I'm gonna go very far,"
Just take me one time around the ballroom slow,
And take me home.

 

[MightyAphrodite]

we are sooooo chillaxin' ...

When you're out there on your own
Where your memories can find you
Like a circle goes around
You were lost until you found out
What it all comes down to

One by one
The lonely feelings come
Day by day, they slowly fade away

Ooh, the look was in her eyes
you never know what might be found there
She was dancing right in time
And the moves she made so fine
Like the music that surrounds her

Should I stay or go?
I really want to know
Would I lose or win
If I try and love again?
gonna try and love again
I'm gonna try and love again
gonna try and love
gonna try and love

Right or wrong, what's done is done
It's only moments that we borrow

But the thoughts will linger on
of the lady and her song
When the sun comes up tomorrow

Well, it might take years to see
Through all these tears
Don't let go
When you find it you will know

Oh, Gonna try and love again
gonna try and love again
Sometimes lose, sometimes win,
Sometimes you need a friend
gonna try, gonna try
gonna try, gonna try

 

[tufty79]

sleepy times

I remember when you came
I can just recall that day
Unexpected, undetected
If Id have known I still would have done it.

So little time, so long to wait
A paradise, within your eyes
All the things I could tell you
All the things I could show you.

Youre my waking thought
Youre the smile on my lips
I dream I see your face
I see and dream of you.

You were safe and warm
I was in your hands
We were moved in time
To another space.

Somewhere, not here
Somewhere, not here
So, little time
So, little time.

You were safe and warm
I was in your hands
We were moved in time
To another space.

A thousand miles away
Id like to fly to you.

I immerse myself
I dream, I see your face
I see, I dream of you
If you were here wed watch
If you were here wed see.

Youre my waking thought
Youre the smile on my lips.

You were safe and warm
I was in your hands
We were moved in time
To another space.

Somewhere, not here
I know you are somewhere, not here
Youre my waking thought
Youre the smile on my lips
Are you thinking of me
Do I invade your sleep
A paradise, a paradise
Within your eyes.

I remember when you came
I can just recall that day
Somewhere not here
Somewhere not here
Somewhere.

Atlantas a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire

I got willie on the radio
A dozen things on my mind
And number one is fleshing out
These dreams of mine

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

In nashville there is a lighter
In a case for all to see
It speaks of dreams and heartaches
Left unsung

And in the corner stands a guitar and
Lonesome words scrawled in a drunken hand
I dont travel past, travel hard before
And Im beginning to understand

That Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

They say that I am crazy
My life wasting on this road
That time will find my dreams
Scared or dead and cold

But I heard there is a light
Drawing me to reach an end
And when I reach there, Ill turn back
And you and I can begin again

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But I wouldnt trade all your golden tomorrows
For one hour of this night

Atlantas a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

The original version by David McWilliams

A tenement, a dirty street
Walked and worn by shoeless feet
Inside it's long and so complete
Watched by a shivering sun
Old eyes in a small child's face
Watching as the shadows race
Through walls and cracks that leave no trace
And daylight's brightness shun.

Chorus:
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ahh Ahh Ahh
The race is almost run

Nose pressed hard on frosted glass
Gazing at the swollen mass
On conrete fields where grows no grass
Stumbles blindly on
Iron trees smother the air
But withering, they stand and stare
Through eyes that neither know nor care
Where the grass has gone

Chorus:
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ahh Ahh Ahh
The race is almost run

Pearly where's your milk white skin
What's that stubble on your chin
It's buried in the rot gut gin
You played and lost not won
You played a house that can't be beat
Now look your head's bowed in defeat
You walked too far along the street
Where only rats can run

Chorus:
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ahh Ahh Ahh
The race is almost run
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ahh Ahh Ahh
The race is almost run
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ahh Ahh Ahh
The race is almost run

Constant repetition carries conviction...so they say.

I said "Mama, he's crazy and he scares me
But I want him by my side
though he's wild and he's bad
and sometimes just plain mad
I need him to keep me satisfied"

I said "Papa, don't cry cause it's alright
And I see you in some of his ways
Though he might not give me the life that you wanted
I'll love him the rest of my days"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Brother, you speak to me of passion
You said never to settle for nothing less
Well, it's in the way he walks,
it's in the way he talks
His smile, his anger and his kisses"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Sister, don't you understand?
He's all I ever wanted in a man
I'm tired of sittin' around the T.V. every night
Hoping I'm finding a Mr. Right"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

He says "Baby, don't listen to what they say
There comes a time when you have to break away"
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life
It's time to let them go and become my wife"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

this , again , STILL....*grrr* its not for no reason though.

Summer's gone, day's spent with the grass and sun,
I dont mind, to pretend i do seems really dumb.
I rise as the morning comes, crawling through the blinds,
I shouldn't be up at this time, but i cant sleep with you there by my side.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Twenty five, don't recall a time i felt this alive,
So wake up boo, there's so many thing's for us to do.
Its early so take your time, don't let me rush you please,
I know i was up all night,i can do anything, anything, anything.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Wake up (x8)

But you can't blame me now for the death of someone,
But you can't blame me now for the death of someone.
But you've gonna say, what you wanna say,
You have to put the death in everything.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Wake up its a beautiful morning,
Feel the sun shining for your eyes.
Wake up its so beautiful,
For what could be the very last time.

Ahhhh

 

[purves grundy]

You better watch what you're wearing
If you want him to come round and see you tonight...

 

[tufty79]

You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me

Yeah, I drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess

See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho

i'm off on a liz phairfest

I've got my own thing
Feel it, it is strong
The shortest people think
But really it is long

I don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song
I don't have to stay for a rainy day
I know that something comes along, it always comes along

Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too
Boy, I do

I've got my own thing
Feel it in a room
Everybody changed
When I do what I do, Cause I do what I do

I don't have to say what i'm thinking cause
Everyone's radio is on and they've heard my latest song
Don't have to stand there with a drink because
They say that we would get along, so let's get along

Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too
Boy, I do

I know you're not like other guys
I don't expect you to normalize
I won't get into what you do
Because I'm bettin, bettin, bettin, bettin, bettin all my money on you

I don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song, they've heard my latest song
You don't have to stand there with a drink because
I know that we would get along, so let's just get along

Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh boy, I'd love to help give enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you swing it this way too

Sunlight falls on your hands as you type,
Just something in my head.
Standing in this empty space,
Your desk is gone,
The wall's still dark from where it went.

This position is not open now for applicants.
The application forms got shredded.
There was faulty wordin' in the documents.

I can still hear you laughin',
Coming up the rickety stairs,
Laughin' as the springtime filled your lungs with air
Pink smoke rung out like the patches of your hair
Like violets
Like birds inside a bell

A grey ghost prowls in the back of my mind
While the sun is out,
Though it's still up and the light is shining.
Its seasons push and pull enough to get us through
For my mind is open now
But it won't let the door open to an empty room

This position is not open now for applicants.
The application forms got shredded.
There was faulty wordin' in the documents.
I can still hear you laughin',
Coming up the rickety stairs,
Laughin' as the springtime filled your lungs with air.
Pink smoke rung out like the patches of your hair
Like violets
Like birds inside a bell

If somehow I'd have known
I would have rather gone down with the ship
Than be without you
If only for the chance
To hold you hand,
To be your friend

I'm never gonna last
I - I would have rather gone down
Than this

The war is over
The war is over
War is over
And I'm waiting in the sinking ship

If only I had known
If only I had known

 

[rollinder]

“Where have ye been all the day, my own dear darling boy?
Where have ye been all the day, my own dear comfort and joy?”
“I have been to my stepmother, make my bed mummy do,
Make my bed mummy do.”

“What did she give you for your supper, …?”
“I got fish and I got broth, …”

“Where did she get the fish that she give you?”
“Hedges sought and ditches caught.”

“What did you do with your fishbones?”
“I gave them to my greyhound.”

“Tell me what did your greyhound do?”
“There he swelled and there he died.”

“I fear that she does you deadly wrong.”
“She took me in but she did me slay.”

“What will you leave to your mother?”
“I'll leave you me house and land.”

“What will you leave your stepmother, my own dear darling boy?
What will you leave your stepmother, my own dear comfort and joy?”
“Bind her with rope and there let her hang with the halter that hangs on the tree
For poisoning of me.”

 

[dilute micro]

I'm gonna try
Do what they say

Your life is shit
Shit
Your life is strange
And insane
Your life is not the size of crap
Your life is now
Now

I'm gonna die
Dying with you just
I'm going to hell
Without my libido
I'm gonna try
To find it with you just
I'm going to hell
Without my libido
I'm gonna die
Dying with you just
I'm going to hell
Without my libido
I'm gonna try
To find it with you just
I'm gonna die
Do what they say

Your life is shit


I'm gonna open myself up a flea market
I'm gonna open myself up a flea market
And you're gonna wish that you did
And retire on the profits
First off
I'm gonna empty out all of my Mrs. Butterworth jars
And I'm gonna put 'em on a shelf with my 800 dollar a month tax free Century 21 shop
And then I am going to put my Mrs. Butterworth syrup jars on the shelf
Next to all the commemorative fast food chain glasses
and cups I've accumulated over the past 62 years

Then I'm going to get some plywood
I'm going to get some plywood and cut them up into two by two piece squares
Then I'm going to get some burlap
and I'm going to cut them into two by two piece squares
and then I'm going to put them onto the pieces of plywood

And then I'm going to go to the beach
I'm going to go to the beach
and I'm gonna collect some shells and driftwood
And then I'm going to take the shells and driftwood
and glue them onto the plywood and burlap
And sell em for lots of money
People will be paying top dollar for my kids new used new toys and clothing

Then maybe someday I can get rid
of that pissed stained mattress I've been sleeping on...

anyway im listening to rob zombie right now lol....


Dead I am the one, Exterminaters son
Slipping through the trees, strangling the breeze
Dead I am the sky, watching angels cry
while they slowly turn, conquering the worm

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dead I am the pool, spreading from the fool
We get what you need, no air as you bleed
Dead I am the rat, feast upon the cat
Tender is the fur, dying as you purr

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Do it baby, Do it baby
Do it baby, Do it baby
Burn like an animal

Dead I am the life, dig into the skin
Knuckle crack the bone, 21 to win
Dead I am the dog, hound of hell you cry
Devil on your back, I can never die

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Do it baby, Do it baby
Do it baby, Do it baby
Burn like an animal

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches and
Burn through the witches and
slam in the back of my
Dragula

I got an empty case of Wip-Its
No more time on the meter

Daybreak
About face
I think I'm comin'
Cross another country line
Are we there?
Convertible
Cookin' with nitrous
Crackin' in the air
I am the sign of go

While last night's stars were high
Now they're popping in the sky
And the band is jammin' in

Daybreak
I don't like it
Better tonight
Better for you

Buzzing flourescence
I don't what it wants from me
If I find the door
Then I am the son of go

And the band is movin' in
That's what you get
That's what you get
When there's no time on the meter

You get
An empty case
Of Wip-Its
And a boyfriend with a beeper

... and ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[tufty79]

A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silence, silence.

This is my final fit,
my final bellyache,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

No alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises, please.

(radiodread/easy all-stars version)

A sudden rush of expectation
as I realise it's you.
Like a river in a droughtful season.
How cruel you didn't call.
Initial hint of disappointment.
The mirror of my smile
that isn't there, that doesn't follow
a very causal 'hi'.
Why did you come at all,
if it wasn't for me?
Another blow of resignation
when realise I do.
Now in your hands
the book you borrowed.
The whole way we first met
comes together in my head,
when the picture's clear you've left

(erland oye - sudden rush)

Come disconnect the dots with me, poppet
Come disconnect the dots
Come disconnect the dots with me, poppet
Come disconnect the dots

It's so beautiful
Our lunacy
It's so beautiful
