I love Lyrics!

THE BITCH said:
In the station, in the City, A British
Soldier stood
Talking to the people there, If the people
would
Some just stared in hatred, And others
turned in pain
And the lonely British Soldier wished he was
back home again

Come join the British Army, Said the posters
in his town
See the World and have your fun, Come serve
before the Crown
The jobs were hard to come by, And he could
not face the dole
So he took his Countries Shilling, And
enlisted on the roll

But, there was no fear of fighting, The
Empire was long was lost
Just ten years in the Army, Getting paid for
being bossed
Then leave a man experienced, A man whose
made the grade
A medal and a pension, Some men present a
trade

Then came the call to Ireland, As the call
had come before
Another bloody chapter, In an endless civil
war
The Priests they stood on both sides, The
Priests they stood behind
Another fight in Jesus name, The blind
against the blind

The Soldier stood between them, Between the
whistling stones
And then the broken bottles, That lead to
broken bones
The petrol bombs that burned his hands, The
nails that pierced his skin
And wished that he

Breakfast In Bed(UB40&CHRISSY HYNES)


You've been crying, your face is a mess
Come in baby, you can dry your tears on my dress
She's hurt you again, I can tell
Oh, I know that look so well

Don't be shy, we have been here before
Pull your shoe, lie down and I will lock the door
And no-one has to know, I've come here again
Knowing it will be, like it's always been before

Breakfast in bed, kisses for me
You don't have to say you love me
Breakfast in bed, love can make you sing

What's your hurry. Please don't hit and run
We can let her wait my darling it's been so long
Since you've had me here, I've returned again
Darling it will be like it's always been before.

Breakfast in bed, kissses for me
You don't have to say you love me
Breakfast in bed, love can make you sing.
 
Barry McGuire Eve Of Destruction


The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.

Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say
Can’t you feel the fears I’m feelin’ today?
If the button is pushed, there’s no runnin’ away
There’ll be no one to save, with the world in a grave
[Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy]

And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.

Yeah, my blood’s so mad feels like coagulatin’
I’m sitting here just contemplatin’
I can’t twist the truth, it knows no regulation.
Handful of senators don’t pass legislation
And marches alone can’t bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin’
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin’

And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
You may leave here for 4 days in space
But when you return, it’s the same old place
The poundin’ of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don’t leave a trace
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don’t forget to say grace
And… tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend
You don’t believe
We’re on the eve
Of destruction
Mm, no no, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.
 
Tracy Byrd Drinkin Bone



Well it's Friday evenin' six o'clock
And all my friends are twistin' off
I'm at the house just turnin' on T.V.
And they all wonder why I’ve changed
How many times must I explain
It's basic honky tonk anatomy

The drinkin' bone is connected to the party bone
The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
And she won't think it's funny
And I'll wind up all alone
And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

Hey two plus two is always four
And down is south and up is north
Thirty-two degrees is freezing cold
You play with fire you end up burned
The early-bird gets the worm
But the only thing you really need to know
Is...

The drinkin' bone is connected to the party bone
The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
And she won't think it's funny
And I'll wind up all alone
And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone

Hey sing it with me
Let's make sure you know....

The drinkin' bone is connected to the party bone
The party bone's connected tot he stayin' out all ngiht long
And she won't think it's funny
And I'll wind up all alone
And the lonely bone's connected the the....

The drinkin' bone is connected to the party bone
The party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long
And she won't think it's funny
And I'll wind up all alone
And the lonely bone's connected to the drinkin' bone​

Close, but not quite-Tracy Byrd. Good tune, though. :D Here's another one of his that I love.

The Truth About Men

We don't like to go out shoppin',
We don't care what's on sale.
We just want to sit with a bag full of chips,
Watchin' the NFL.
When you come over at half-time,
An' say: "Does this dress fit too tight?"
We just look you in the eye with a big fat lie,
An say:"Uh, uh: Looks just right."

Well, that's the truth about men.
Yeah, that's the truth about us.
We like to hunt and golf on our days off,
Scratch, an' spit, an cuss.
It don't matter what line we hand you,
When we come draggin' in.
We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,
An' it's probably gonna happen again.

We hate watchin' "Steel Magnolias".
We like "Rambo" an' "Die Hard 4".
Jump up and down like fools when we see the new tools,
At the Home Depot store.
We don't really wanna take you to dinner,
At some fancy restaurant.
The only reason we do is 'cause we know it leads to,
The one thing that we all want.

Well, that's the truth about men.
Yeah, that's the truth about guys.
We'd rather play guitars and work on cars,
Than work on the problems in our lives.
An' though we might say it to you,
Every now and then,
We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,
An' it's probably gonna happen again.

Well, if you want to know what we're all thinkin',
It's nothing too complex.
It's just somethin' cold for drinkin',
And a whole lot of s-e......

Yes, that's the truth about men.
Yeah, that's the truth about us.
We like to hunt and golf an' drive around, lost,
Scratch, an' spit, an' a whole lot of other disgustin' stuff.
It don't matter what line we hand you,
When we come a-crawlin' in.
We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,
An' it's probably gonna happen again.

We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,
An' it's probably gonna happen;
Sure, it's gonna happen;
You know it's gonna happen again.
An' that's the truth about men.

You know it, son.​

Me too, but that song I know very well LOL. Trace Adkins isn't so bad, either.
For some reason I get the feeling I might've posted one of his songs already..Hmmmm.....
 
Coheed and Cambria~In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth:3
A broad incision sits across the evening
The victim to our fathers lost war
The restless children sit and mourn the graves
Of those they've never seen before
Will they be buried here among the dead?
In the silent secret

[Chorus:]
The pioneers
In dealing with it they march for dawn, of Will and worthy
The truth be told the child was born
Man your own jackhammer
Man your battle stations
We'll have you dead pretty soon
And now
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine
Man your battle stations
We'll have you home pretty soon
And now

Awake through motion with curiosity to curtain your first move
Over arms length they'll break protocol
Jealous envy for the youngest one
To be the hero is all I'll ask
Can I be buried here among the dead?
With room to honor me here in the end
You'll be better off too soon
You'll be better off when you get home

[Chorus]

For you,
I'd do anything just to make you happy, hear you tell me that you’re proud of me
For them,
I'll kill anything cut the throats of babies for them break their hearts for they were them
Waiting for you to say: I love you too

The navigator
The pilot
Her favorite
The one they call the vision that bears the gift
[x2]

Will,
Do the children really understand the things you did to them?
And why oh why…
Should they conjure up the will for you my love I would kill him
we're coming home pretty soon
Coming home

In the seventh turning hour
Will the victims shadow fall?
Should the irony grow hungry?
With the victory and all they sought for
We were one among the fence
One among the fence

[Guitar riffs and vocalizing]

We're coming home

Man your own jackhammer
Man your battle stations
We'll have you dead pretty soon
And now
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine
Man your battle stations
We'll have you home pretty soon
tonight​
 
Led Zeppelin

I Can't Quit You Babe

Ahhhhh... ahh... I can't quit you babe
so I'm gonna put you down for a while.
I said now, I can't quit you babe, so
I guess I got to put you down for a little while.
I said you messed up my happy home,
Made me mistreat my only child.
Yes you did, baby. Oh!

Said you know I love you, babe,
My love for you I could never hide.
You know I love you, babe,
My love for you I could never hide.
When I feel you near me little girl,
I know you are my one desire, yeah.
Woaa-a-a-a-h!

When you hear me moaning and groaning, babe,
you know it hurts me deep down inside.
When you hear me moaning and groaning, babe,
you know it hurts me deep down inside.
Oh! When you hear me holler, babe,
you know you're my one desire, yeah.
 
Stealer's Wheel Stuck in the middle with You


Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got a feelin' that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wonderin' how I'll get down those stairs
Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right
Here am I stuck in the middle with you

Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wonderin' what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losin' control, I'm all over the place
Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right
Here am I stuck in the middle with you

Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say
Please, please

Well, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wonderin' what it is I should do
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
I don't think that I can take it anymore
Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right
Here am I stuck in the middle with you

Well, you started off with nothing
And you're proud that you're a self-made man
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say
Please, please

Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got a feelin' that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wonderin' how I'll get down those stairs
Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right
Here am I stuck in the middle with you
Here I am stuck in the middle with you
Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you
Stuck in the middle with you​
 
The Coasters Charlie Brown


Fe-fe, fi-fi, fo-fo, fum
I smell smoke in the auditorium

Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He's a clown, that Charlie Brown
He's gonna get caught
Just you wait and see
(Why's everybody always pickin' on me)

That's him on his knees
I know that's him
Yeah, from 7 come 11
Down in the boys' gym

Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He's a clown, that Charlie Brown
He's gonna get caught
Just you wait and see
(Why's everybody always pickin' on me)

Who's always writing on the wall
Who's always goofing in the hall
Who's always throwing spit balls
Guess who (who, me) yeah, you

Who walks in the classroom, cool and slow
Who calls the English teacher, Daddy-O

Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He's a clown, that Charlie Brown
He's gonna get caught
Just you wait and see
(Why's everybody always pickin' on me)

Who walks in the classroom, cool and slow
Who calls the English teacher, Daddy-O

Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He's a clown, that Charlie Brown
He's gonna get caught
Just you wait and see

The Walking Song

J.R.R. Tolkien

The road goes ever on and on
down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the road is gone
and I must follow, if I can.
Pursueing it with weary feet
until it meets some larger way,
where many paths and errands meet
and whither then? I can't say.

Roads go ever on and on
over rock and under tree,
by caves where never sun has shone,
by streams that never find the sea.
Over snow by winter sown
and through the merry flowers of June.
Over grass and over stone
and under mountains in the moon.

Roads go ever on and on
under cloud and under star.
Yet feet that wandering have gone
turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
and horrors in the halls of stone,
look at last on meadows green
and trees they long have known.

The road goes ever on and on
down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the road has gone,
let others follow it, who can.
Let them a journey new begin,
but I at last with weary feet
will turn towards the lighted inn,
my evening rest and sleep to meet.

 
The Rain Song

Led Zeppelin

This is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing - so little warmth I've felt before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing - I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles - flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
Speak to me only with your eyes. It is to you I give this tune.
Ain't so hard to recognize - These things are clear to all from
time to time.

Talk Talk - I've felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it would ever go. I cursed the gloom that set upon us...
But I know that I love you so

These are the seasons of emotion and like the winds they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion - I see the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient - Upon us all a little rain must fall.
 
This is about the best thing you can listen to while on zooms



Sex Pistols - Who killed bambi

Gentle pretty thing
Who only had one spring
You bravely faced the world
Ready for anything
I'm happy that you lived
For your life is mine
What have I except to cry
Spirit never die
Birds of the air
Beasts of the earth
Overjoyed at Bambi's birth they gambolled in the glade

[Chorus]
Who killed Bambi? [x9]

Murder murder murder
Someone should be angry
The crime of the century
Who shot little Bambi
Never trust a hippie
'Cause I love punky Bambi
I'll kill to find the killer
In that rotten roll army
All the spikey punkers
Believers in the ruins
With one big shout
They all cry out
Who killed Bambi?
Who?
 
Here's something for a whole lot of you:

Funker Vogt - Remember Childhood

There was a little child
Playing with it's friends
They had a lot of toys
And nothing more than fun

They didn't care for success
And had no tasks to master
Life was so easy to them
And just without any problems

Where is the little child in you?
Where has your childhood gone?
Who is the man in the mirror?
And where is your peaceful fun?

Your aim is success
Your life's no fun
Work like a machine
Happiness is gone

Remember that you're just a big child
Remember the time you lost your childhood
Remember the time before
Remember and enjoy it
 
Are emo kids and Rednecks starting to hybrid? I ask because I'm noticing that country music is ****ing depressing as hell:

Kenny Chesney - Who You'd be Today

Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
I see your smile, I see your face
I hear you laughing in the rain
I still can't believe you're gone

It ain't fair you died too young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder who you'd be today

Would you see the world, would you chase your dreams
Settle down with a family
I wonder what would you name your babies
Some days the sky's so blue
I feel like I can talk to you
I know it might sound crazy

It ain't fair you died too young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder who you'd be today

Today, today, today
Today, today, today

Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
The only thing that gives me hope
Is I know I'll see you again someday

Someday, someday


Wynonna Judd - Flies on the butter

Old tin roof, leaves in the gutter
A hole in the screen door big as your fist, and flies on the butter
Mamaw baking sugar cookies, we were watching cartoons
Heard her holler from the kitchen which one of you youngin's wants to lick the spoon?
Yellow jackets on the watermelon, honeysuckle in the air
Daddy turning on the sprinkler, us kids running through it in our underwear
Old dog napping on the front porch, his ear just a-twitching
Fell asleep on Granddaddy's lap to the sound of his pocket watch ticking

Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
It doesn't seem like it was all that long ago
Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
You can dream about it every now and then
But you can't go home again

Me and my best friend Jenny set up a back yard camp
Stole one of Mama's Mason jars, poked holes in the lid and made a fire fly lamp
Me and Billy Monroe sneaking down by the river
And I'm still haunted by the taste kiss I was too scared to give him

Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
It doesn't seem like it was all that long ago
Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
You can dream about it every now and then
But you can't go home again

There's a black-top road, a faded yellow centerline
It can take you back to the place, but it can't take you back in time

Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
It doesn't seem like it was all that long ago
Oh, oh, oh - Oh, oh, oh
You can dream about it every now and then
But you can't go home again

Old tin roof, leaves in the gutter
A hole in the screen door big as your fist, and flies on the butter


Lonestar - Everything Changed

unny you should show up after all of these years
Yeah things sure have changed around here
Seen a lot of strangers since they put that interstate through
No this ain't the same town that we once knew

They put up a plant where we used to park
That ol' drive-in's a new Wal-Mart
The cafe
 
This song has been played way too much but it fits me right now.

Push.

She said I don't know if I've ever been good enough.
I'm a little bit rusty and I think my head is caving in.
I don't know if I've ever been really loved by a hand that's touched me.
Well I feel like something's gonna give and I'm a little bit angry.

This ain't over. No not here- not while I still need you around.
You don't owe me. We might change. Yeah we just might feel good.

I want to push you around. I will. I will.
I want to push you down. I will. I will.
I want to take you for granted. I want to take you for granted.
I will.

She said I don't know why you ever would lie to me like I'm a little untrusting when I think that the truth is going to hurt you.
And I don't know why you couldn't just stay with me- you couldn't stand to be near me when my face don't seem to want to shine because it's a little bit dirty.

Don't just stand there. Say nice things to me.
I've been cheated. I've been wronged.
And you, you don't know me.
I can't change. I won't do anything at all.

Don't bowl me over. Just wait a minute. Well it kinda fell apart.
Things get so crazy, crazy.
Don't rush this baby. Don't rush this baby.

I want to push you around. I will. I will.
I want topush you down. I will. I will.
I want to take you for granted. I want to take you for granted.
I will.
