Daft Lyrics

[Gob]

Ok, songs which you like or dislike, within which the words are, how can I put it, less than sensible...

I'll start us off witha couple of exerpts/examples (believe me, these songs don't get more sensible)

Yes: "Yours is no disgrace."

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace.

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far,
Lost in musing circumstances, that's just where you are.

Blue Aeroplanes: "Jacket Hangs"

Pick a card, any card.
Wrong.
Pick 19th century twin-set pearls in a new clasp,
Brass neck, collar me
Right.
We need a suit, we press a suit so collar me. Collar me.
Siamese cat drapes, roughneck honey.
We press a suit, we set in train.
We press a suit, we swan about, we set in train.
We set in train, swan about.
We swan about. We swan about.
I believe in what passes for a centre, collar me
In spite of dress, your boyfriend link, crooked arm.

Nephilim; "Psychonaut (libII)

Pray now for how long
We're falling from ecstasy
Like changelings
Freedom returned for new souls
Here or after
Well enrapture me and i'll change
I stand alone inside you
I stand alone the skies bruised
Let it spill from my mouth
Sweet nectar for a thousand young
Are you ready for this
- Here i come
Pray now for ours, pray for me

(Don't get me wrong, I love these songs, but honestly!)

[Crackpot]

they might be giants "shoehorn with teeth"

He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
People should get beat up for stating their beliefs
He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
Because he knows there's no such thing

He asks a girl if they can both sit in a chair but he doesn't get nervous
She's not really there

He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
Because he knows there's no such thing

Tour the world in a heavy metal band
But they run out of gas
The plane can never land

He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
People should get beat up for stating their beliefs
He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
Because he knows there's no such thing

What's the sense in ever thinking about the tomb
When you're much too busy returning to the womb?

He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
People should get beat up for stating their beliefs
He wants a shoehorn, the kind with teeth
Because he knows there's no such thing

[MajGenl.Meade]

I am, I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
I am, I cried
I am, said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still

The ever awful Neil Diamond. Shoulda tried the love seat.

My girlfriend say she love me but it's just the jewelry multi color
carrots got your girlfriend kinda curious first I drop my verse
and then I go and drop the chorus then I'm gonna go back to my trap
you know I'm morland 74 restored beethoven record
it say you charging 30 like that gucci can't afford it gucci charging 40 dog
that's a couple birdies gucci stupid jewelry dog and I don't think they herd me

Yo dog! Gucci Marie am de tops! There's a total waste of a compulsory education but ... I'm jes sayin'

Now this high culture and great poetry:


Achy Breaky Heart
~ Billy Ray Cyrus

Video


You can tell the world
you never was my girl,
you can burn my clothes
up when I'm gone.
You can tell your friends
just what a fool I've been,
and laugh and joke
about me on the phone

You can tell my arms:
Go back into the farm!
You can tell my feet
to hit the floor.
You can tell my lips
to tell my fingertips,
they won't be reaching out
for you no more.

But don't tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
I just don't think he'd understand.
And if you tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
he might blow up and kill this man.

You can tell your Ma,
I moved to Arkansas,
you can tell your dog
to bite my leg.
Or tell your brother Cliff,
whose fist can tell my lips,
he never really liked me anyway.

Or tell your Aunt Louise,
tell anything you please,
myself already knows I'm not O.K.
Or you can tell my eyes
to watch out for my mind,
it might be walkin' out
on me one day.

But don't tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
I just don't think he'd understand.
And if you tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
he might blow up and kill this man.

But don't tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
I just don't think he'd understand.
But if you tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
he might blow up and kill this man.

Emerson, Lake, and Palmer's "Karn Evil 9". Just BIZARRE!

[Gob]

The sum total lyrics of a hit song, guess the title?

The night is young, the mood is mellow

And there's music in my ears

Say, is Vic there ?


I hear ringing in the air

So I answer the phone

A voice comes over clear

Say, is Vic there ?

Just in case...

[loCAtek]

This is currently getting airplay, although I don't know why. The first time I heard it, it came across as a long monotonous, droning, dirge. The printed lyrics don't even capture it, or else they'd be six pages of long, whiny chanting . I'll spare you the audio, that goes on and on and repetitiously on...


Christina Perri - Jar Of Hearts Lyrics

No, I can't take one more step towards you*
Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

[Chorus:]
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I've learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

[Chorus]

It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

[The Hen]

I got one. I got one. And I can't get it outta my head ....
