And that is why a girl is called a tease
And that is why a guy is called a sleaze
And that's why god made escort agencies
One life to live, and mace, and GHB
(...)
Why all these conflicting specifications?
Maybe to prevent overpopulation
All I know is that all around the nation
The girls are crying and the boys are masturbating

The girls are crying and the boys are masturbating
locked in his bedroom
he saw the world
a web of answers
and cumshot girls
don't bother blaming
his games and guns
he's only playing
and boys just want to have fun
he picked a soundtrack
and packed his bag
he hung his walkman
around his neck
it's so simple
the way they fall
no cry, no whimper
no sound at all

I wake up every morning to the sound of motors roaring
they are drowning out the voices in my head
at night while I am sleeping I can hear the angels speaking but I can't recall a single thing they said
I see their lips move clearly I feel their presence near me
but each word they try to tell me just slips through the cracks
I push I strain I wrestle with my brain and then a voice from somewhere whispers to relax.

Don't want to lose my nerve
Don't want to clothe the curve
Don't want to make you swerve
Don't want what I deserve
Don't want to change the frame
Don't want to be a pain
Don't want to stay the same
Slug - U2 & Brian Eno
And I'm not sure this one counts, because it was part of a song written for a book (Variable Star - Robert Heinlein) but:
It's the reason we came from the mud, don't you know
'cause we wanted to climb to the stars
In our flesh and our bone and our blood we all know
we were meant to return to the stars
Don't want to clothe the curve
Don't want to make you swerve
Don't want what I deserve
Don't want to change the frame
Don't want to be a pain

Go tell all your freinds! That this is the end! - Mothership, Enter Shikari
The bullets and bombs, that stuff banks,
Staff the party ranks.
More for gore, or the son of a drug lord,
None of the above, fuck it, cut the cord.
....Later on in the song....
It has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime,
What better place than here? What better time than now?
All! Hell! Can't stop us now! x7 - Guerrilla Radio, Rage Against The Machine
Finders keepers, will you keep me in mind?
I like secrets, 'cause they keep me in line,
Old habits die hard, but I'm too young to die. - Finders Keepers, You Me At Six
You look like you rented a smile off someone, but you,
Rented the wrong size,
Take it back! - Return to Energizer, Enter Shikari

I wanted love
But not for myself
But for the girl
So she could love herself - Next Girl, The Black Keys
These blood red eyes.
Don't see so good.
But what's worse is if they could.
Would it chance my ways?- These Days, The Black Keys
They say the captain goes down with the ship
So if the world ends
Will God go down with it?-What a Catch Donnie, Fall Out Boy
Just for the record,
The weather today is slightly sarcastic with a good chance of:
A. Indifference or
B. Disinterest in what the critics say- London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines, Panic! at the Disco
I don?t love you I'm just passing the time
You could love me if I knew how to lie
But who could love me?
I am out of my mind-She Had The World, Panic at the Disco
Uh...there's probably more. Those are some of my favorite song. I would look them up if I were you.
But not for myself
But for the girl
So she could love herself - Next Girl, The Black Keys

Don't see so good.

Lamb of God - Ruin
This is the art of ruin.
This is the resolution.
The end of all progress.
The death of evolution.
It bleeds all life away.
This is the art of ruin.
This is the resolution.
The end of all progress.
The death of evolution.
It bleeds all life away.
I'll edit when I think of more.
Guilt Machine - Perfection:
And all the things you are,
And all you've lost
Is perfection what you really want?
then later in the song:
Whats one more year?
A trip around the sun
Rise up and leave here
The journey's done
Whats one more year?
A circle in the sky
The future's in motion
You're free to fly
And all the things you are,
And all you've lost
Is perfection what you really want?
then later in the song:

Christ, mr Drake came up with some amazing lines. Here is one of my favourite Nick Drake verses:thylasos said:"If songs were lines in a conversation, the situation would be fine."
"Dancing a jig in a church with chimes
A sign of the times today
Hearing no bell from the steeple tall
People all in dismay
Falling so far on a silver spoon
Making the moon for fun
Changing a rope for a size too small
People all get hung"
- Parasite
One of my favourite Thom Yorke lines:
"Like I've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream"
- Mouse Dog Bird
And finally, a lovely Zach Codon verse
"Walls gone over the sea
But not for me
Watch now, all will end
Now all that I'm, under a tide
Now I'm, under a tide
Tall hair under it all
Much more than I once had
Over seas"
- Canals of Our City
All the lyrics from The Wildheart - Geordie in wonderland
Now that I've changed and the rest have all stayed
well, why do I feel so confused?
some of the best of me plans have been laid
and some of me best moments used
I've been out for the count in a Mexican bar-o
stranded in nowhere with a-nothing but me
ah, lads, I daen't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
Some of the shit has sprouted in roses
and some of the roses have died
forced by meself to follow conviction
and ignore what I'm missing inside
I've been loved by the sweetest and hated by heroes
life's still (a) surprise and the friends come and go
ah, lads, I daen't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
I've had praise I've had ridicule, either meant nothing
faced with the task of tomorrow's demands
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
(whoop-whoop)
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
Now that I've changed and the rest have all stayed
well, why do I feel so confused?
some of the best of me plans have been laid
and some of me best moments used
I've been out for the count in a Mexican bar-o
stranded in nowhere with a-nothing but me
ah, lads, I daen't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
Some of the shit has sprouted in roses
and some of the roses have died
forced by meself to follow conviction
and ignore what I'm missing inside
I've been loved by the sweetest and hated by heroes
life's still (a) surprise and the friends come and go
ah, lads, I daen't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
I've had praise I've had ridicule, either meant nothing
faced with the task of tomorrow's demands
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland

You're a better man than I -The Yardbirds
Can you judge a man
By the way he wears his hair?
Can you read his mind
By the clothes that he wears?
Can you see a bad man
By the pattern on his tie?
Chorus:
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Could you tell a wise man
By the way he speaks or spells?
Is this more important
Than the stories that he tells?
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he doesn't strive
Chorus:
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Could you condemn a man
If your faith he doesn't hold?
Say the colour of his skin
Is the colour of his soul?
Or could you say if men
For king and country all must die?
Chorus
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Yeah You're a better man than I
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I

"From green to red our days pass by
Waiting for a sign to tell us why
Are we dancing all alone?
Collect some stars to shine for you
And start today, there are only a few
A sign of times, my friend.
All of Harness Your Hopes by Pavement
Harness your hopes
on just one person
because you know a harness
was only made for one
Don't telegraph your passes
You'll end up with molasses
cauterized in syrup
And syrup and molasses
And I'm checking out the asses
The assets that attract us
To anything that moves
We're deep inside the grooves
And it's time to shake the rations
cause someone's gonna cash in
The plot it turns again
The reference starts at ten
Well show me
A word that rhymes with Pavement
And I won't kill your parents
And roast them on a spit
And a-don't you try to etch it
Or permanently sketch it
Or your gonna catch a bad bad cold
And the freaks have stormed the white house
I moved into a lighthouse
It's on a scenic quay
It's oh so far away
Far away from the beginning
The shroud is made of linen
The yearling took the purse
The goth kid has a hearse
Heart-breaking
Earth-quaking
Kiwis they are home baking
Minds wide open truly
Leisure
A leisure suit is nothing
It's nothing to be proud of
In this late century
And I'm asking you to hold me
Just like the morning paper
Pinched between your pointer
Your index and your thumb
It's a semi-automatic
Believers are ecstatic
You see the way they cling
The cold metallic sting
And I'm living in a coma
For Donna de Varona
The harness made of hopes
The lovers on the ropes
Nun is to church
As the parrot is to perch
And my Heart's
Wide open Truly
on just one person
because you know a harness
was only made for one
Don't telegraph your passes
You'll end up with molasses
cauterized in syrup
And syrup and molasses
And I'm checking out the asses
The assets that attract us
To anything that moves
We're deep inside the grooves
And it's time to shake the rations
cause someone's gonna cash in
The plot it turns again
The reference starts at ten
Well show me
A word that rhymes with Pavement
And I won't kill your parents
And roast them on a spit
And a-don't you try to etch it
Or permanently sketch it
Or your gonna catch a bad bad cold
And the freaks have stormed the white house
I moved into a lighthouse
It's on a scenic quay
It's oh so far away
Far away from the beginning
The shroud is made of linen
The yearling took the purse
The goth kid has a hearse
Heart-breaking

And my Heart's
Wide open Truly
I raise you...Novskij said:
The Ruins of Beverast - Mount Sinai Moloch
If thou... still creeping
Beheld us... still dreading
Thy sinister heights
Thou'd stand as a mere rock for us indeed,
A moloch for worms
A colossal artefact
Guardian and denouncer of the weak
Yet... In pristine and eerie beauty thou'd dwell
Trumpets... resounding with cacophony
And smoke... effusing venom
Now ascending Mount Sinai
Whose bounds are trampled down
Since heaped up with the sands of time
Outlived as a moloch for worms
Outlived as a colossal artefact
Monument and monolith of oblivion
Here... In profane and moribund solitude thou shall vegetate
Imperishably.
So grab your Zerg and beat 'em in the head.
If he don't like biscuit, feed it cornbread
Zerg go wasteland 'bout half drunk, jump on a man, like a dog on a bone, like a dog on a bone
Goin' to be a hood ornament in a second, Street Roller!
If he don't like biscuit, feed it cornbread
Zerg go wasteland 'bout half drunk, jump on a man, like a dog on a bone, like a dog on a bone
Goin' to be a hood ornament in a second, Street Roller!
