 | I have a friend on SYD whose (no)name will remain anonymous. It seems no matter what the topic is, somehow his mind -drifter-s and his comment will include song lyrics. If I were playing Rock-n-Roll Jeopardy at a party, I would want him on my team.
Here's my thought; do you have a favorite tune, it might be because of a guitar riff or maybe it's the lyrics. Do you think you know some of the words, great! Please post some of the words then let us guess if we know the title. |
If the damned gave us a road map then we'd know just were to go
Now let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Well you were talking soda pop
You were talking quite a lot
The opinions that I do not give
The opinions I ain't got
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Let it all fall off there oh
Well you were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If you truly knew the gravity you'd know just where to go
Well let it drop
Let it drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
My ears were pressed so firmly right against your mouth to hear
When you tried to spit the venom out your words were not so clear
Now drop
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for fucked up history
Hold on to what you need
We've got a knack for messed up history
Well we went downtown and we sat in the rain
Both looking one direction and waiting for a train of thought over
Thought over
I didn't know you kept track
I didn't know there was a score
Well it looks like your the winner and I ain't gonna play no more
It's over
Game over
Well we walked real stiff and our canes hit the ground
You hit me with yours
And said, "You're gonna stare me down"
It's over
Oh it's over
You can say what you want but don't act like you care
It takes more than one person to decide whats fair
Its over
Think it over
You were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a road map then you'd know just where to go
So we carried all the groceries in while hauling out the trash
And if this doesn't make us motionless
I do not know what can
What a rotten thing to say such an awful thing to say
I didn't mean to bite you, sorry
I always did what I always did
What I always had to sling
So let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it all drop
Oh let it all fall off
Let it drop
Let it all drop
Let it drop
Oh let it all fall off
Cheer up baby it wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had
Cheer up baby it wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had
I have felt alone
Content to live with unrest
Longing faded into countless
Nights that buried my
Weary heart
You brought an end
To this dead hour
And meaning to
A calloused life
Held in Your arms
But too far from my heart
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in mine
I remember the way you looked
At me not the way you drew
Drew me close
With one deep sigh
Scattering pieces of my
My restless mind
Forgetting all that we
We have left behind
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
These thoughts will carry me
Through the darkest nights
While your eyes rest in
It's more a change of heart
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
Blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot
I laid my plans in solid rock
Like the sun and the shine,
Well the truth may come in strange disguises
Send the message to your mind.
Just a dead man walking with a double barrel shotgun
Ain't a single fucker left to fear
See their lips moving but I don't wanna hear
Showdown, I ain't backing down from anybody
Throw down, if I don't get some space
Lay down, not in this life or another
Deny me, if it's not your way
All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this, something more than me
Death can take me if I can't be free
I'm not like you, I'm a dying breed
Round two, something you just don't wanna do
You're dancing with the devil if you wearing my shoes
You've got nerve and I'll give you that
Watch the world crumble while you sit on your ass
Wake up, get your head together motherfucker
Straight up, before it's too late
Stand up, nothing ever lasts forever
Don't cry and that's how it's gonna stay
All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this, something more than me
Death can take me if I can't be free
I'm not like you, I'm a dying breed
All I wanted was your honesty
Something more than this, more than me
Death can take me if I can't be free
I'm not like you, I'm a dying breed
The roof has a face
It's telling me I don't belong with the human race
He's askin me to join him
In eternal sle.ep
I give him my soul
My body he can keep
Reaching just above me
I see my pillow's there
But yet I have no head
My head is on the chair
I'm staing at my body
I look as if I'm weak
So give me back my soul, my body you can keep
Sitting on my lawn
It's just before dawn
I listen to the screaming
Another life is gone
I'm playing with the chi.ldren
Chi.ldren of the dead
My mother say's their evil
My daddy gives a shit
Their eyeballs are bloody
Their skin is ever pale
They're askin me to follow
I shall, I shall
They dress me as a clown
I'm screamin as a loon
We dance upon the cemetery
Underneath the moon
Here I come there I go
I'm a night walker
I'm starin at you sleepin through your window like a stalker
I'm taping on the glass
I lick it with my tongue
I notice that the house is vacant
I'm starin at no one
I must of fell asleep
I woke up on the floor
Underneath the carpet
Underneath the boards
I'm gaged with a dead rat
I lay for many weeks
The rat comes back to life
And is chewing on my cheeks
Mental Warp
My brain is gone, my mind is gone
Say no more my time is gone
Coming is my helper
Tangling my brain
Somethings very wrong
I can't describe this pain
I'm calling for my mother
I'm crawling up the stairs
My mothers laughing at me
And she's been dead for years
I'm falling down the stair case
Tumble to the floor
I land up in the attic, next to the cellar door
I'm play with the pigons
They tell me many lies
They tell me I'll have wings
If I let them peck my eyes
I hear a womans voice
Calling from the dirt
Iplat my little seed
And slowly she will spurt
And now she is a tree
I hear the heart pound
Itake her in my arms
And we make love to the sound
The wind is my ebony
Blowing evil thoughts
Carrying the demons soring with the hearts
I put it in my body
The wind will bring the rain
Only lay it's demon egg
Deep inside my brain
They're calling me a killer
I can't say that I'm not
My daddy's tried to kill me ever since I was a tot
By poisoning my bottle
I feed it to my friend
Cuz if he dies my buddy our friendship will never end
I'm sitting with the darkness
Talking to the dark
It's singing lullabies
And stringing on the harp
I notice that the floor is warm and rather sick
It's cuz I'm sitting in my stomach
Mental Warp
My brain is gone, my mind is gone
Say no more my time is gone
Turns out he was the shit, a piece of shit.
You see this young hoolagin wasn't afraid to die so he put his life on the line to gain respect in his neighborhood.
Well the only respect he gets now is from the maggots and worms that are snacking on his dead ass.
Life is over, death devour
Time has come for witching hour...
Time for your family to dress up in black
Time for your coffin to ride in the back
Time for your enemies to laugh at your death
Time for the vultures to pick at what's left
Time for your homeboy to find a new clique
Time for your girlfriend to suck a new dick
Time for your brot.hers to fight over your car
Time for the world to forget who the fuck you are
Close your eyes, hold your breath, release the stress
Let it out, there's nothing left 'cuz you're facing death
If you see God, send my blessings if He's up there
And tell that man how you spent your life here
Bust around the street, deisel smoke from the heat
And you're feeling weak, 'cuz the lead got you going to sle.ep
It's getting deep, know your peeps?
They gon' fuck your freak
In between the sheets in they face they drop the leaky leak
You hear the sirens, think about who was firing
See your partner blurry from the spark of the iron
Holding on to faith, wanna survive to retaliate
Here comes the Reaper, it's Grim Reaper at your door awaits
Can you feel it? Pumping on your inner spirit?
Got you screaming out for mommy dearest
You wanna live, keep on twitching, bluff spitting
Time ticking it's the hour for the witching
Life is over, death devour
Time has come for witching hour...
Time for you to lay dead while everybody stares
Time for the Revrend to front like he cares
Time for your body to rot in your tomb
Time for your si.ster to finally get your room
Time for your picture to fade on the wall
Time for your crew to hang out at the mall
Time for your boys to beat hoes and kick bass
While you sit in the dark, with maggots crawling on your face
Bitches are backstabbers, or your inner friend bank grabbers
Reaching out just to get fatter
Thoughts of your soon-to-be wife and your phat ride
She's in the back seat, catching it from the backside
You wish you had some rum, feeling numb
Where the noise at?
Losing it, where my boys at?
Hallucinate seeing caskets, your son a soon to be bastard
'Cuz you slipped and got blasted
Visualizing your good times
Ambulance 59 minutes later, now you're on a respirator
Get on this shit, you're losing consciousness
Man flashing, in your phat ride crashing
Unhappy family and it's costing black roses
Beer on the concrete, blunts in your coffin
That's all you get, a lost soul on the trip
Times up, clock ticked, hour to be witched
Life is over, death devour
Time has come for witching hour...
Time to sit and cry about the fact that you're gone
Time to say fuck it, Nitro is on
Time for your people to clean out your place
Time for your love to go through your tin case
Time for your father to feel a little stress
Time for you step-dad to give a fuck less
Time for the world to keep spinning around
Even with you dead in the ground, motherfucker!
Time for your family to dress up in black
Time for your coffin to ride in the back
Time for your enemies to laugh at your death
Time for the vultures to pick at what's left
Time for your homeboy to find a new clique
Time for your girlfriend to suck a new dick
Time for your brot.hers to fight over your car
Time for the world to forget who the fuck you are
And it seems to be more in the laid back songs
Nobody wants to get drunk and get loud
Everybody just wants to go back home
I myself have seen my wilder days
And I have seen my name at the top of the page
But I need to find a friend just to run around
But no one wants to get high on the town
And all my rowdy friends have settled down
Let's go get lost Let's go get lost
Blue you sit so pretty West of the one Sparkles light with yellow icing Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun Just a mirror for the sun
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
So much as come before those battles lost and won This life is shining more forever in the sun Now let us check our heads And let us check the surf Staying high and dry's more trouble than it's worth In the sun
(that's probably harsh of me, haven't heard much of the newer stuff but didn't much care for what I heard)
We've got a war to fight?
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment?
How can it feel, this wrong?
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
The truth is in the eyes
Cause the eyes don't lie, amen
Remember a smile is just
A frown turned upside down
My friend let me tell you
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
The truth is in the eyes
Cause the eyes don't lie, amen
Beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake
I'm telling you beware
Beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Jealousy ( jealousy )
Misery ( misery )
Envy I tell you, you can't see behind smiling faces
No truer words were spoken. Good one bellabeauty!
I'm a product of the early 60's but my older si.ster is 5 years older than me and for that reason, American Bandstand was on every Saturday afternoon. There was a music program that aired daily in the Detroit area called Swingin' Time ( I think ).....me and my si.sters loved to dance and sing. I do have a love of music, not all genres but many!
Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the light side of life.
[whistling]
If life seems jolly rotten, There's something you've forgotten, And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, Don't be silly chumps. Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing. And...
Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
(Come on!)
Always look on the right side of life,
[whistling]
For life is quite absurd And death's the final word. You must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin. Give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow. So,...
Always look on the bright side of death,
[whistling]
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
[whistling]
Life's a piece of shit, When you look at it. Life's a laugh and death's a joke. It's true. You'll see it's all a show. Keep 'em laughing as you go. Just remember that the last laugh is on you. And...
Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the right side of life.
[whistling]
(Come on, Brian! Cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life!
[whistling]
Always look on the bright side of life!
[whistling]
(Worse things happen at sea, you know!)
Always look on the bright side of life!
(I mean, what you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing, you're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the bright side of life!
[whistling]
(Nothing will come from nothing. You know what they say?)
Always look on the bright side of life!
(Cheer up, you old bugger! Come on, give us a grin! There you are! See?)
[whistling
Wrong thread,wrong film....but makes me laugh so much...the tears are running down my leg....
Sickboy you are a very naughty boy...
Isn't it frightfully good to have a dong?
It's swell to have a stiffy,
It's divine to own a dick,
From the tiniest little tadger
To the world's biggest prick.
So three cheers for your Willy or John Thomas,
Hooray for your one eyed trouser snake,
Your piece of pork, your wife's best friend,
Your Percy or your cock,
You can wrap it up in ribbons,
You can slip it in your sock,
But don't take it out in public
Or they will stick you in the dock,
And you won't come back.
(the last 3 lines were pre internet)
Here I come with love and not hatred Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I All the days of I life
Envy no one, no wish to be with no evil man For there'll come the day When you'll be whipped by the father's hand.
My head is anointed and my cup runneth over Surely goodness and mercy Shall follow I, all the days of I life
Where the diamond crescent's glowing and
Run across the valley
Beneath the sacred mountain
And wander through the forest
Where the trees have leaves of prisms
And break the light in colors That no one knows the names of
As he's dancing upon your paycheck.
They've been making life hard They've been taking me for a fool So I saved up all my cigaretts And I traded them in for a tool

Do you need a woman to look after you?
You make pretty daisies, pretty daisies (then you mow 'em down, down)
Love, I gotta find what you're doing about things here
A few witches burning, gets a little toasty now
I gotta find why you always go when the wind blows
Tell me you're crazy, maybe then I'll understand
You got your 9 iron in the back seat, just in case
Will you even tell her if you decide to make the sky fall?
God, sometimes you just don't come through...
Love or fear, the fear last longer But love is stronger, so I stay loyal to love with honor You got those who wanna take that for weak Be prepared, they'll test you in front of your peeps Some easy advice, buy your way out my life It's the principle, the pockets fat not flat Some borrow dough and relax on payin that back?

That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow.
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again.
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads.
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns,
But the film is a sadd'ning bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more.
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on
Sailors
Fighting in the dance hall.
Oh man!
Look at those cavemen go.
It's the freakiest show.
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy.
Oh man!
Reelin' through an endless fall, we are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one is ever gonna love you
more than I do
No one's gonna love you
more than I do
Someone..they should've warned you...
I float like a ribbon in the sky, no play
Hey look, smooth or rugged, I'ma Usain run it
'Cause I does it in my own lane
Then I'ma flash for the picture
She'll come back, no, hasta la vista
Computer love iMac with my finger
Baby, I'm a man, not ya mister, I missed ya
My lifestyle's terribly wild
But you never catch me on the Jeremy Kyle show
Explosive, terrorist style
Don't think I'ma blow, I'll get you therapy now
The meek shall inherit the Earth, you old Jezebel It needs no light to see you're making disturbances
It's better to seek a home in Mount Zion high Instead of keeping oppression upon innocent man
Time will tell on you, you old Jezebel How long shall the wicked reign over my people?
It's better to seek a home in Mount Zion high Instead of keeping oppression upon innocent man
Time will tell on you, you old Jezebel How long shall the wicked reign over my people?
Throw all the punch you want to, I can take them all
Lie down gal let me push it up push it up lie down
Lie down gal let me push it up push it up lie down
Got a monkey on my back
I'm gonna push and pull
And howl like wolf
And drive my cadillac
I've got medication, honey
I've got wings to fly
I've got horse hoof tea
To buzz you like a bee
Gonna blind the evil eye
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane
Hear what I say, sir, yeah
Get your hands in the air, sir
And you will get no hurt, mister, no no no
I'm just a-walking in the sunshine, Leave your troubles all behind you, I think I'll drink a little red wine, I'll take you where they'll never find you.
Sad songs, well I've heard too many, Words that didn't rhyme, Long years never had a penny, But we spend the time.
Just a-walking in the sunshine, Try to keep from going under, I think I'll drink a little red wine, Ain't no use to sit and wonder.
As I would say?
Autumn eve and the leaves are falling, till the trees are bare, Summer's gone I can hear you calling, Haven't got a care.
Just a-walking in the sunshine, Leave your troubles behind you, I think I'll drink a little red wine, I'll take you where they'll never find you.
I was looking at all the life.
There were plants and birds. and rocks and things,
There was sand and hills and rings.
The first thing I met, was a fly with a buzz,
And the sky, with no clouds.
The heat was hot, and the ground was dry,
But the air was full of sound.
to protect us from all the corporate types
While curious George's **** patrol
Is out here hunting snipe
Now they try to tell me different
but you know I ain't no clown
'Cause those damned blue-collar tweekers
Are the backbone of this town
