"Yer favourite lyrics"

Yes, I've had a skin full and am feeling mightily sentimental and empathic, but let's have your favourite songs, or just parts of the lyrics that speak to you .....

Okey dokey.

*sways with drunken-ness*

"HIC"

Leftover Crack - Operation: M.O.V.E.

Awesome song, heavy as hell.

"Philadelphia, '78,
Shut down M.O.V.E., by Police State,
45 Police storm Powellton village,
Government sanctioned rape and pillage,
Friendly fire kills officer dead,
The M.O.V.E. nine are framed up instead,
One dead cop, one officers gun,
unjust system is yet undone,
In spite of efforts dissipated,
Until the movement was incinerated.

May 13th, '85,
Eleven people, burned alive,
They dropped the bomb, after liquid was doused,
To smoke out the family and burn down the house,
Sights trained on exits, the police wait,
A firing squad for those who fight to escpape,
M.O.V.E. fought against exploitation,
The states injustice and their oppression,
For these crimes that the city pigs created,
The afrika's were incinerated,

Sentanced to be, incinerated"

Currently, my favourite lyrics are these; "Pulmonary Archery" by "Alexisonfire"...

Let's go!
It's never too late to be early
Or try and maintain
Some scrap of integrity and certainty
I guess.

(My fingers)
Won't apologize
(Are blistered and bleeding)
And 1977...
Was a long time
(Was a long time)
Time ago
(Time ago)
I don't care.

I don't care how things
Were and I won't
Apologize.
I won't apologize.
F**k you.

And the alamo penetrated
And there is little hope
For the white man so
Hop on your rainbow
And ride...

(My fingers)
So I'll ride it into
(Are blistered and bleeding)
And ride into oblivion
For all I care
(There's no longer)
You could be early
(Discomfort)
Or late
(That you brought)
Whatever!

Otherwise known as "Swing Life Away", yes?

This one was remade by several artists, Sting included. I so love Stevie Ray Vaughn's version. Mm! Bluuues maaann. Good sex music. :D

Little Wing - SRV

Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That's all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind

When I'm sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It's alright she says it's alright
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything

Fly on little wing,
Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing

"Punk Rock Song" by Bad Religion
(The Gray Race, 1996)

Have you been to the desert, have you walked with the dead?
There's a hundred thousand children being killed for their bread
And the figures don't lie, they speak of human disease
But we do what we want and we think what we please

Have you lived the experience, have you witnessed the plague?
People making babies sometimes jus**t to escape
In this land of competition the compassion is gone
Yet we ignore the needy and we keep pushing on
Keep pushing on

This is jus**t a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony we do our share
But there's so many other f**king insects out there
And this is jus**t a punk rock song

Have you visited the quagmire, have you swam in the sh*t
The party convention and the real politick
The faces always different, the rhetoric the same
But we swallow it all and we see nothing change
Nothing has changed

This is jus**t a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like workers in a factory we do our share
But there's so many other f**king robots out there
And this is jus**t a punk rock song

Ten million dollars on a losing campaign
Twenty million s**tarving and writhing in pain
Big s**trong people unwilling to give
Small in vision and perspective

One in five kids below the poverty line
One population running out of time
Running out of time

This is jus**t a punk rock song
Written for the people who can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony we do our share
But there's so many other f**king insects out there
And this is jus**t a punk rock song

Figures don't lie, they speak of human disease
But we do what we want and we think what we please
One in five kids below the poverty line
One population running out of time

This is jus**t a punk rock song
This is jus**t a punk rock song
This is jus**t a punk rock song

"Shades of Truth" by Bad Religion

Here inside this quiet room
There's direction
Outside in the sultry noon
Time reflection

A million people scurry
They're looking for advice
None willing to lend charity
Just exercise their

Shades of truth
At partisan conventions
Shades of truth
Between disparate lines
Shades of truth
Interpret my intentions
You don't know I'm alright
You don't know I'm alright

Who authored the blueprints and
Made us captains?
Someone proclaimed creation
People listened

While children by the millions
Are thrown into the zoo
The so-called gift of clarity
Oh what was God up to?

Shades of truth
At lenient conventions
Shades of truth
Between disparate lines
Shades of truth
Interpret my intentions
You don't know I'm alright
You don't know I'm alright, yeah

So many walk in parallel
And pull their blinders tight
So few offer apology
And accept others' rights
And nothing absolutely can be cherished in the end
But can't we all accept that it will all happen again?

Shades of truth
Just partisan conventions
Shades of truth
Between disparate lines
Shades of truth
Interpret my intentions
You don't know I'm alright
You don't know I'm alright

Just shades of truth
At partisan conventions
Shades of truth
Between disparate lines
Shades of truth
Interpret my intentions
You don't know I'm alright
You don't know I'm alright

Iron Maiden - Can I Play With Madness?

' The Demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night '

Genesis - Jesus He Knows Me

Do you see the face on the TV screen
Coming at you every Sunday
See the face on the billboard
That man is me

On the cover of the magazine
There's no question why I'm smiling
You buy a piece of paradise
You get a piece of me

I'll get you everything you wanted
I'll get you everything you need
Don't need to believe in hereafter
Just believe in me

Cos Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything is alright

I believe in the family
With my ever loving wife beside me
But she don't know about my girlfriend
Or the man I met last night

Do you believe in God
Cos that is what I'm selling
And if you wanna go to heaven
I'll see you right

You won't even have to leave your house
Or get out of your chair
You don't even have to touch that dial
Cos I'm everywhere

And Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything is alright

You won't find me practising what I'm preaching
Won't find me making no sacrifice
But I get you a pocketful of miracles
If you promise to be good, try to be nice
God will take good care of you
Just do as I say, don't do as I do

I'm counting my blessings
I've found true happiness
Cos I'm getting richer, day by day
You can find me in the phone book
Just call my toll free number
You can do it anyway you want
Just do it right away

There'll be no doubt in your mind
You'll believe everything I'm saying
If wanna get closer to him
Get on your knees and start praying

Cos Jesus he knows me
And he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
Oh yes he knows me
And he knows I'm right
And he's been telling me
Everything is alright

I love this! It's really boosting up my word count with jibbery lyrics!! Woo!
