Lyrics


Black Sabbath

Recommended Posts

Here's a snippit of some of my favorite Alice Cooper lyrics...

I burned all my porno - 'cause you were PMS'n

You say it offends you - All that talking it never ends

Disconnected my X-Box and ditched all my friends

So you can go to the opera.

Dumped all my girlfriends - Even the dirty ones

You think they annoy you - they wanna destroy you

I`m givin` you everything

Baby what do you want from me!

:D

The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'

That's what I said

The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand

Or so I have read

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo

I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo

Big bottom, big bottom

Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em

Big bottom drive me out of my mind

How could I leave this behind?

I met her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day

You know what I mean

I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day

You know what I mean

My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights

Big game is waiting there inside her tights, yeah

Big bottom, big bottom

Talk about mud flaps, my girl's got 'em

Big bottom drive me out of my mind

How could I leave this behind?

Did we lose ourselves again?

Do we take in what's been said?

Do we take the time to be

All the things we said we'd be

And we bury heads in sand

But my future's in my hands

It means nothing

It means nothing

You can find yourself a God

Believe in which one you want

'Cos they love you all the same

They just go by different names

When we fly our flag today

Are you proud or just ashamed?

It means nothing

It means nothing

It means nothing

It means nothing

It means nothing

If I haven't got you

If I haven't got you

If I haven't got you

If I haven't got you

:D

Random lines:

Happiness is an illusion, hold me close, deceive me a little more

I would dig a thousand holes to lay next to you

My lips may promise but my heart is a whore

Beneat the stain of time, the feeling disappears. You are someone else, I am still right here

Yes there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run theres still time to change the road you're on.

I have two...

First....the outsider by a perfect circle

" Help me if you can

It's just that this, this is not the way I'm wired

So could you please,

Help me understand why

You've given in to all these

Reckless dark desires

You're lying to yourself again

Suicidal imbecile

Think about it, put it on the faultline

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

I'm over this. Why do you wanna throw it away like this

Such a mess. Why would I want to watch you.

Disconnect and self destruct one bullet at a time

What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

Medicated, drama queen, picture perfect, numb belligerence

Narcissistic, drama queen, craving fame and all its decadence

Lying through your teeth again

Suicidal imbecile

Think about it, put it on the fautline

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

Go with this, why do you wanna throw it away like this

Such a mess. Why would I wanna watch you...

Disconnect and self destruct one bullet at a time

What's your rush now, everyone will have his day to die

They were right about you

They were right about you

Lying to my face again

Suicidal imbecile

Think about it put it on the fautline

What'll it take to get it through to you precious

I'm over this. Why do you wanna throw it away like this

Such a mess, I'm over this, over this!

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet at a time

What's your hurry, everyone will have his day to die

If you choose to pull the trigger, should your drama prove sincere,

Do it somewhere far away from here"

Second...

Reptile by nine inch nails...look that shit up yourself

Subdivisions by Rush:

Sprawling on the fringes of the city

In geometric order

An insulated border

In between the bright lights

And the far unlit unknown

Growing up it all seems so one-sided

Opinions all provided

The future pre-decided

Detached and subdivided

In the mass production zone

Nowhere is the dreamer or the misfit so alone

[Chorus:]

(Subdivisions)

In the high school halls

In the shopping malls

Conform or be cast out

(Subdivisions)

In the basement bars

In the backs of cars

Be cool or be cast out

Any escape might help to smooth the unattractive truth

But the suburbs have no charms to soothe the restless dreams of youth

Drawn like moths we drift into the city

The timeless old attraction

Cruising for the action

Lit up like a firefly

Just to feel the living night

Some will sell their dreams for small desires

Or lose the race to rats

Get caught in ticking traps

And start to dream of somewhere

To relax their restless flight

Somewhere out of a memory of lighted streets on quiet nights...

Big Take Over by Bad Brains is at the top of my list right now:

No one dared to show for that shower, when nobody turned out to be clean, was not even touched by the water, just another Nazi scheme.

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My, big Takeover yeahh,yeahhh.

Walking around in total damnation, prepare yourself for the final quest. This world is doomed with a Jew segregration, still another Nazi threat!

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My, the big Takeover yeahh-yeah-yeahhh.

You've gotta be right, you better take it.

If you don't act right, you'll never... make it!

So understand me when I say, there's no love for this U.S.A. This world is doomed with it's own segregation, Just another nazi test.

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My Big Takeover yeahh,yeah-yeah

Night Nurse by Pianos N' Puppets (The Musical)

Hunched on my zimmer frame

Leanin' on my walking cane

Feelin' the arthritic pain

One more time tonight

(close the gate on your way out)

Well I'm a warm coat wearin'

One grand mother

Got a copy on the morning Post

Under my arm

Said I need a dialysis machine

Been drinkin' listerine

An doctor you can make my wheel chair run

I got one mint left

In a nine pack deal

I got a dog shit on my carpet smell

I got a low alcohol mocktail with a boiled sweet to go

I chew my gums with style

An I can tell you doctor

You can pump my water bottle tonight

Wake up early doctor put on my clothes

Take your prescription pad to the pharmacy

That's none for you and twenty two for me by tonight

I'll be

Dancin' on my zimmer frame

Leaning' on my walking stick

Feelin' like I might be sane

One more breath mint tonight

I'm on the nightnurse

plastic distributer up

I'm on the nightnurse

Feel me up

I'm on the nightnurse

Ready to pass in the night or wet the bed

I never learnt anything after my stroke

I'm on the nightnurse

I love that nurse

I'm on the nightnurse

and I love nurse muff

I'm on the nighnurse

Oh the rectal burn - no

Staggering on my zimmer frame

Dancin' round my walking cane

Feelin' a nurses ass

One more painkiller tonight

I'm on the nightnurse

An I'm lookin' for my glasses

I'm on the nightnurse

So's I can leave this ward

I'm on the nightnurse

And I'm ready to pass an' wee

Nightnurse

Beaker up

I'm on the nightnurse

Fill my artificial leg

I'm on the nighnurse

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa yeah

I'm on the nightnurse

Love nurses muff

I'm on the nightnurse

An I can never get up again

Ridin' the nightnurse

I guess I

I guess, I guess, I guess I never walk again

On the nightnurse

Polish my Gnome

Ooh I'm on the nightnurse

Ridin' the nightnurse

Oh the rectal burn

Nightnurse

Ray Davies from the Kinks is my favorite lyricist. Here's an example of his genius.

Have Another Drink

Has everybody got problems?

Are you stuck in a dead end job?

Frustrated and dissatisfied?

Are you on the edge of suicide?

Terrorist bombers on the left,

Fascist plots on the right.

Mass destruction and homicide,

Are you horrified and terrified?

Such a shame.

We've all got problems we know,

There's one thing that's for sure,

There's only one cure for all your hangups and all your depressions.

Have another drink it'll make you feel better,

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

If you feel down and you're under the weather

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

(Repeat above four lines).

Facts and figures.

Filling out forms.

Reading circulars.

Dictating letters.

Is your occupation

Getting to your brain?

Is there no relief?

It's like a ball and chain.

There's no need to get depressed,

Worrying won't make it better.

There's only one consolation I can recommend.

Don't take my word for it, try it for yourself.

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

Have another drink it'll make you feel better.

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

Have another drink it'll make you feel better.

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

If you're feeling down and you're under the weather,

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

Have another drink it'll make you feel better,

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

If you're feeling down and under the weather,

Have another drink and you'll feel alright.

CURMUDGEON - NIRVANA

I can handle

Arm the mentor

I love sad

Until I'm home

It's the season

I'm all reason

I have seeked

and I have ghosts

She's at the seams

She don't need (x3)

At the seams

And I'll seem

End the seam

She don't need

At the seams

I'm a letter

I'm a panda

I said something

In the guard

In the handle

On the mantle

I know Santa

I met God

She's the seam

She don't need (x2)

Cheat on me

She don't need

At the seams (x3)

She don't need

I'm a lady

Can you save me

It's the sulfur

I have drunk

Tis the season

I'm all reason

I have fleas

and run on home

She's the seam

She don't need (Alt: Cheat on me) (x5)

At the seams (x2)

Cheat on me

WHATS THE NEW MARY JANE - THE BEATLES

She looks as an African queen,

She eating twelve chapattis and cream,

She tastes as Mongolian lamb,

She coming from out of Bahran

What a shame Mary Jane had a pain at the party

What a shame Mary Jane

What a shame Mary Jane has a pain at the party

She like to be married with Yeti,

He grooving such cooky spaghetti,

She jumping as Mexican bean

To make that her body more thin

What a shame Mary Jane had a pain at the party

What a shame Mary Jane

What a shame Mary Jane had a pain at the party

She catch Patagonian pancake

With that one a gin party makes

She having all the good ways good contacts,

She making with apple an contract

What a shame Mary Jane had a pain at the party

What a shame Mary Jane

THE SHAH SLEEPS IN LEE HARVEYS GRAVE

There's a time to fuck and a time to crave,

But the Shah sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave!

There's a time to shit and a time for God,

The last shit that I took was pretty fuckin' odd!

There's a time for drugs and a time to be sane,

Jimi Hendrix makes love to Marilyn's remains!

There's a time to live and a time to die,

I smoke Elvis Presley's toenails when I wanna get high!

There's a time to fuck and a time to crave,

But the Shah sleeps in Lee Harvey's Grave!

Yeah, I am the ultimate God!

Don't even think of looking with your naked eye, motherfucker.

SHUT UP!

LONG TALL SALLY - LITTLE RICHARD

Gonna tell Aunt Mary 'bout Uncle John,

he wrote us that he missed us, but I know he's having fun

Oh baby,

woo-o-o-oh baby,

havin' me some fun tonight.

Well, long tall Sally she's

built for speed, she got

everything that Uncle John need

Oh baby,

ye-e-e-eh baby,

woo-o-o-oh baby,

havin' me some fun tonight.

Well, I saw Uncle John with long tall Sally.

He saw Aunt mary comin' and he ducked back in the alley.

Oh baby,

[Long Tall Sally lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

ye-e-e-eh baby,

woo-o-o-oh baby,

havin' me some fun tonight.

We're gonna have some fun tonight,

gonna have some fun tonight.

We're gonna have some fun tonight,

everything will be alright.

We're gonna have some fun,

gonna have some fun tonight.

We're gonna have some fun tonight,

gonna have some fun tonight.

We're gonna have some fun tonight,

everything will be alright.

We're gonna have some fun,

gonna have some fun tonight.

Fade To Black first verse is just awesome IMO

Life it seems, will fade away

Drifting further every day

Getting lost within myself

Nothing matters no one else

I have lost the will to live

Simply nothing more to give

There is nothing more for me

Need the end to set me free

PINK FLOYD

"Lost For Words"

I was spending my time in the doldrums

I was caught in the cauldron of hate

I felt persecuted and paralyzed

I thought that everything else would just wait

While you are wasting your time on your enemies

Engulfed in a fever of spite

Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades

Like shadows into the night

To martyr yourself to caution

Is not going to help at all

Because there'll be no safety in numbers

When the Right One walks out of the door

Can you see your days blighted by darkness?

Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?

Stuck in a world of isolation

While ivy grows over the door

So I open my door to my enemies

And I ask could we wipe the slate clean

But they tell me to please go fuck myself

You know you just can't win

"well you run and you run to catch up to the sun but it's sinking, racing around to come up behind you again, the sun is the same in a relitive way but your older, shorter of breath, but one day closer to death"

Inhale By Stonesour

Come one and all and see the broken man, talking to himself

He sits and waits for something better, he'll never find it here

The people touch his hair and pinch his cheek; he can't even feel it

There it goes again, he's listening to someone

He hears the bitter laughter

And all he wants to know is...

Why------ does any of it matter? (I can't take it anymore)

You've gotta try------ the inhale that makes the exhale so much better

He wipes his hands on anything in reach, he never feels clean

He shakes at night because his nerve is gone, every muscle hurts

Come one and all and see what happened...that broken man is me

There it goes again, I can hear it louder

It doesn't feel good anymore

All I want to know is...

Why------ does any of it matter? (I can't take it anymore)

You've gotta try------ the inhale that makes the exhale so much better

NOW I KNOW I DISAPPEAR!

I CAN'T FIND MY WAY FROM OUT OF HERE!

EVERYTHING IS FADING ON ME!

SOMEONE TELL ME... someone tell me...

Someone - tell me

Why------ does any of it matter? (I can't take it anymore)

You've gotta try------ the inhale that makes the exhale so much better

WHY?! YOU'VE GOTTA TRY!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She seemed dressed in all of me, stretched across my shame.

All the torment and the pain

Leaked through and covered me

I'd do anything to have her to myself

Just to have her for myself

Now I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do when she makes me sad.

She is everything to me

The unrequited dream

A song that no one sings

The unattainable, Shes a myth that I have to believe in

All I need to make it real is one more reason

I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do when she makes me sad.

But I won't let this build up inside of me

I won't let this build up inside of me

I won't let this build up inside of me

I won't let this build up inside of me

A catch in my throat choke

Torn into pieces

I won't, nO!

I don't wanna be this...

But I won't let this build up inside of me

[Vermillion, Pt. 2 Lyrics on

http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ]

I won't let this build up inside of me

I won't let this build up inside of me

I won't let this build up inside of me

She isn't real

I can't make her real

She isn't real

I can't make her real

"I guess I'll call it

sickness gone

It's hard to say

the meaning of this song.

An ambulance can only

go so fast

It's easy to get buried

in the past

When you try to make

a good thing last"

'Ambulance Blues' - Neil Young

All the lyrics from that song are great, but they in particular stick in my mind.

Just remembered what may be some of the greatest lyrics of all time.

"I walked 47 miles of barbed wire, I use a cobra snake for a necktie

I got a brand new house on the roadside, made from rattlesnake hide

I got a brand new chimney made on top, made out of a human skull

Now come on, take a little walk with me, Arlene and tell me:

who do you love?

who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?"

'Who Do You Love?' - Bo Diddley

U2 - In a Little While

Man dreams one day to fly

A man takes a rocketship into the skys

He lives on starlets dying in the night

And follows in the trail

The scatter of light

Kanye West - Big Brother

If you admire somebody, you should gon head tell em

People never get the flowers, while they can still smell em

Bruce Springsteen - Jungleland

Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz

Between what's flesh and what's fantasy

And the poets down here don't write nothing at all

They just stand back and let it all be

The first few that came to mind.
