i know there was a thread like this before, in the old cc days post up your fav/most memorible lyrics....

I wrote more postcards than hooks.
I read more maps than books.
Feel like every chance to leave
is another chance I should have took.
Every minute is a mile.
I've never felt so hollow.
I'm an old abandoned church with broken pews
and empty aisles.
My secrets for a buck.
Watch me as I cut myself wide open
on this stage. Yes, I am paid
to spill my guts. I won't see home till spring. Oh, I would kill for the Atlantic,
but I am paid to make girls panic
while I sing.

I kinda like in Big Yellow Taxi-

"Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT.
I don't care about spots on my apples, leave me the birds and the bees."

kinda cheesy I know. lol. I also like in the song Dead Flowers by Far Wray-

"our love smells like dead flowers, as I lie in bed and count the hours, waiting for you.
I can't live without your magic powers, I wish we could do it for hours and hours"

 

[LowNotSlow]

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Probably

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

They sold out with the quickness.

[NOFX]

NOFX - Instant Crassic

I'm swimming in a sea of pee
I'm hiking up a big mountain of poo
I feel like rolling in glass when I'm without you

I'm diving in a bowl of puke
I'm fly fishing a stream of puss
That's how I feel when something separates us

I'm living in Bakersfield
I'm at a month long hip-hop festival

(Yeah, that's the entire song. )

 

[Going-West]

Well he tries to be original
But they all come out revolving
Like the moon
Around the earth

The moon tries to escape the earth but the earth wont let it go
Let me go, I'll let you know

At the moment, nothing comes to mind
And I show it, by passing time
I look to your eyes
Or something that reminds me of
Then I dare you to stop me I dare you to try
I'll bury myself until I'm satisfied

Well I tried to write a love song
But I couldn't find the right words
I'm sorry if this comes out wrong you're my only inspiration

This night holds onto me just like I want to hold onto you
The cold surrounds as I drift into the unknown
And sail away

-----

Put on your makeup
Put on your good face
Ignore the preface
This is a disgrace

Now I have spoken
The truth is broken
Now I have spoken

And all you are
Is a liar
And all I am
Is on fire, because I am living with liars

I tried so hard
To let go
Of everything I knew

And now I'm dying to show
That all you have to be
Is real

And all you are
Is a liar
And all I am
Is on fire, because I am living with liars

I tried so hard to let go, of everything I knew
And now I'm dying to show, that all you have to be is real

What am I to do now but sit here by myself
While everybody else
Slowly kills themselves
They crawl inside a bottle
7 days a week
When weak, is exactly, what they are

I tried so hard to let go, of everything I knew
And now I'm dying to show, that all you have to be is real

Are you real enough, for this life
Are you real enough, for this, world

Or are you fake
Fake enough
Are you fake
Fake enough
For this world

 

[Ian01ex]

I'm a big Bowie fan so I'm gonna put one by him.


Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing
News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and t.v.s
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought Id need so many people

A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children
If the black hadnt a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that

I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, dont think
You knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, youre beautiful, I want you to walk

Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, what a surprise
Five years, stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Five years
Five years
Five years
Five years

"lonely rivers flow, to the sea"

 

[ChewiSi]

So wear me like a locket around your throat
I'll wear you down, I'll watch you choke
You look so in blue, you look so good in blue.

F.O.B.

 

[AutoFanatik]

Late night, brakes lock, hear the tires squeal
Red light, can't stop so I spin the wheel
My world goes black before I feel an angel lift me up
And I open bloodshot eyes into fluorescent white
They flip the siren, hit the lights, close the doors and I am gone

Now I lay here owing my life to a stranger
And I realize that empty words are not enough
I'm left here with the question of just
What have I to show except the promises I never kept?
I lie here shaking on this bed, under the weight of my regrets

*let her love flow, like a mountain stream*

*whiskey bottles and brand new cars, oak tree ur in my way*

*woke up this mornin wine glass in my hand, whose wine, what wine, where the hell did i dine*

*I had a friend once he took some acid
Now he thinks he's a fire engine
It's okay until he pisses on your lighter
Kinda smells kinda cool kinda funny anyway

satan, satan, satan...

I had a friend once he took some ecstasy
Tried to marry me and every one in the room
He was sort of loving kinda caring,
kinda tried to f**k my lazy boy
It got a bit messy all over the curtains,
arm chair covers, throw pillows, and carpeting

satan, satan, satan...*

"Blow my whistle, b***h" from ddr. The way b***h is said is perfect. I've never heard a better "b***h" in my life. I'll try to find a soundclip because it's that good.

 

[Revolver]

Well, how bout the ability, to kill a yack from 200 yards... WITH MIND BULLETS!!! Thats telekenisis Kyle.

 

[Beelzebubba]

I'm tired of self respect, i cant afford a car
I wanna be a pre-fab superstar
i wanna be a tool, dont need no soul, wanna make big money playing rock n roll
Ill make my music boring, ill play my music slow
i aint no artist im a business man
no ideas of my own
i wont defend or rock the boat
just sex and drugs and rock n roll
and here we go its
DROOL x6 MY PAYOLA
DROOL x6 MY PAYOLA
youll pay 10 bucks to see me,
on a 15-foot high stage
fat ass bouncers kick the s**t
out of kids who try to dance
if my friends say i lost my guts
ill laugh and say "thats rock and roll"
but theres just one problem....
chorus:
is my cock big enough?
is my brain small enough?
for you to make me a star
give me a toot, ill sell you my soul
pull my strings and ill go far x2
and when im rich and meet bob hope
well shoot some golf and shoot some dope

The Ramones - The KKK took my baby away

She went away for holidays
Said she's going to LA
But she never got there
She never got there
She never got there, they say

The KKK took my baby away
They took her away, away from me
The KKK took my baby away
They took her away, away from me

The KKK took my baby away
They took her away, away from me
The KKK took my baby away
They took my girl, they took my baby away

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]

You're a crossbreed, I'm a knowledge seed
I want ACTION, that's what I need
I never put doubt in my mind
Cause I know when I touch the mic there's the rhyme
See murder which is caused
When you f**k with the negative and positive charge
Then they came up, out my garage
With the hit that's gonna be LARGE
Tired of sittin on my f**kin ass
Niggaz I know, be runnin around with mad f**kin cash
Who the f**k wanna be an emcee
If you can't get paid, to be a f**kin emcee?
I came out my momma pussy -- I'm on welfare
Twenty-six years old -- still on welfare!
So I gotta get paid fully
Whether it's truthfully or untruthfully
With my Boston bloodthirsty process
P-E-A-C-E
