Lyrical Moments...

[Aleks]

Baby, life's what you make it
Can't escape it
Baby, yesterday's favorite
Don't you hate it
Baby, life's what you make it
Don't backdate it
Baby, life's what you make it
Beauty is naked
Baby, life's what you make it
Celebrate it
Anticipate it
Yesterday's faded
Nothing can change it
Baby, life's what you make it

[Tazmanian Devil]

Thought I would get into the spirit of halloween


GoodEvening. Ahahahaha.

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise

He did the mash
He did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the monster mash

From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To catch a jolt from my electrodes

They did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the monster mash

The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf Man
Dracula and his son

The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Eegore on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"

They played the mash
They played the monster mash
The monster mash
And it was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
It caught on in a flash
They played the mash
They played the monster mash

Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He opened the lid and shook his fist
And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"

It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash
The monster mash
It's now a graveyard smash
It's now the mash
It caught on in a flash
It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash

Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash
The monster mash
And do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash
You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash

Vampire blues
Loudon Wainwright III

I'm a vampire baby
want to suck your blood tonight
I'm a vampire
I've got to suck your blood to night
You know them white corpuscles
They make me feel alright

What type blood you got baby
I gotta know
What type blood you got baby
I gotta know
Is it A,
A, B
or is it O?

I was born in Transylvania, but now I got a flat in London town (I bet you didn't know that did you)
I was born in Transylvania, but now I got a flat in London town
You know that drastic castle full of armadillos
Used to really bring me down man
Hey, bring me down

I'm a vampire, oh please let me come inside
Oh I'm a harmless little vampire
please let me come inside
throw away that crucifix and all that garlic
I want you to be my bride

I'm a vampire baby, don't you be a drag
Yeah I'm a vampire baby, don't be a stone drag
I like you baby when you whack me on the rack

Well I'm a vampire baby, I got to suck your blood tonight
Well I'm a vampire, I got to suck your blood tonight
You know them white corpuscles
They make me feel
They make me feel
They make me feel
alright
Woah I'm a vampire baby

(Bluuurgh, my hors d'hoevres too big for my mouth)


'Tis a very jolly little number, and although there's plenty of published versions of the lyrics out there, none of them match my version, though a few of the words I'm not sure of.

~ The Nightmare before Christmas

[jacksondonut]

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

My Immortal

[Jamie]

She seems dressed in all of me,
Stretched across my shame,
All the torment and the pain,
Leaked through and covered me,
I'd do anything that I could to myself,
Just to have her for myself,
Now I don't know what to do,
I don't know what to do...
And she makes me sad.

She is everything to me,
The unrequited dream,
The song that no one sings,
The unattainable,
She's 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...
And she makes me sad.

I wont let this build up inside of me...

She.... isn't real, I can't make her real...

Slipknot - Vermillion Pt 2.

[Ghost]

And this is for the questions that don't have any answers
The midnight glancers and the topless dancers
The candid freaks, cars packed with speakers
The G's with the forties and the chicks with beepers
The Northern Lights and the Southern Comfort
And it don't even matter if your veins are punctured
All the crackheads, the critics, the cynics
And all my heros in the Methodone Clinic

All you b******s at the IRS
For the crooked cops and the cluttered desks
For the shots of jack and the caps of meth
Half pints of love and the fifths of stress....

Bawitdaba - Kid Rock (Fast and the Furious 3, Tokyo Drift)

[jacksondonut]

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we do it our way
All these words I just don't say
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do, no
Never cared for what they know, no
Never cared for what they do, no
But I know

Trust I seek but I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, Master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

I'm bringing sexy back;
Them other boys, they don't know how to act.
I think you're special, what's behind your back?
So turn around and I'll pick up the slack.

Certe notti la macchina è calda
e dove ti porta lo decide lei.
Certe notti la strada non conta
che quello che conta è sentire chi va.
Certe notti la radio che passa Neil Young
sembra avere capito chi sei.
Certe notti somigliano a un vizio,
che tu non vuoi smettere, smettere mai.

Certe notti fai un pò di cagnara,
che sentano che non cambierai più.
Quelle notti fra cosce e zanzare
e nebbia e locali a cui dai del tu.
Certe notti c'hai qualche ferita
che qualche tua amica disinfetterà.
Certe notti coi bar che son chiusi
al primo autogrill c'è chi festeggerà.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così
Certe notti sei sveglio
o non sarai sveglio mai
ci vediamo da Mario prima o poi.

Certe notti ti senti padrone di un posto
che tanto di giorno non c'è.
Certe notti se sei fortunato
bussi alla porta di chi è come te.
C'è la notte che ti tiene tra le sue tette
un pò mamma un pò porca com'è.
Quelle notti da farci l'amore
fin quando fa male fin quando ce n'è.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così.
Certe notti son notti
e le regaliamo a voi
tanto Mario riapre prima o poi.

Certe notti sei solo
più allegro, più ingordo,
più ingenuo e coglione che puoi.
Quelle notti son proprio quel vizio
che non voglio smettere, smettere mai.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così
Certe notti sei sveglio
o non sarai sveglio mai
ci vediamo da Mario prima o poi

[ducasi]

Don't stop me now!
I'm having such a good time –
I'm having a ball!
Don't stop me now!
If you wanna have a good time –
Just give me a call!

[Aleks]

I've been singin' in the darkness
But the sunlights creepin' in
Now the ice is slowly melting
In my soul and in my skin
All the good times, my friend
Yea yea
Are comin' around again
Oh yeah...
I've been thinkin' reminiscing
Some better nights, some better days
Hidin' in the refuse of
Memories i'm in
I gotta feeling within, within
... It's comin' around again

...It's comin' around again
We've been so long waitin', for the all-time highs
We've got a damn good reason
To put your troubles aside
For all your winter sorrows
Hang them out to dry
throw it all away, gotta throw it away.
All the colourful days, my friend
Are comin' around again


That's right
Yeah, yeah
Yea, yea


I got so long waitin' for me
It's been so long since we met
And I may not be your salvation
But I'll offer the less
And it's like me, you wanna take that chance
...It's comin' around again
Oh yeah

I can feel a change of fortune
No more ridin' on my love
Feel the weight is off my shoulders
As my feet become unstuck
And all the good times on which we do depend
No…...


Woah the sunshine,
...It's Comin' around again
Wow
Good one
It's Comin' around again
Yeah, yeah
Wow
The old times
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
the fine lines



...It's comin' around again
Yeah yeah
...It's comin' around again
Yeah yeah

[Aleks]

She left without leavin' a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Austin
'Cause she talked about it all the time
It was almost a year before she called him up
Three rings and an answering machine is what she got

If you're callin' 'bout the car I sold it
If this is Tuesday night I'm bowling
If you've got somethin' to sell, you're wastin' your time, I'm not
buyin'
If it's anybody else, wait for the tone,
You know what to do
And P.S. if this is Austin, I still love you

The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
She waited three days, and then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say,
But she heard three rings and then

If it's Friday night I'm at the ballgame
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone, all weekend long
But I'll call you back when I get home
On Sunday afternoon
And P.S. If this is Austin, I still love you

Well, this time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evenin'
And this is what he heard

If you're callin' 'bout my heart
It's still yours
I should've listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where I belong
And by the way, boy, this is no machine you're talkin' to
Can't you tell, this is Austin, and I still love you

I still love you

[Beowulf]

Why are we here, what is life all about?
Is God really real, or is there some doubt?
Well tonight we're going to sort it all out,
For tonight it's the Meaning of Life.

What's the point of all these hoax?
Is it the chicken and egg time, are we all just yolks?
Or perhaps, we're just one of God's little jokes,
Well ca c'est the Meaning of Life.

Is life just a game where we make up the rules
While we're searching for something to say
Or are we just simple spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DNA?

What is life? What is our fate?
Is there Heaven and Hell? Do we reincarnate?
Is mankind evolving or is it too late?
Well tonight here's the Meaning of Life.

For millions this life is a sad vale of tears
Sitting round with really nothing to say
While scientists say we're just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DNA.

So just why, why are we here?
And just what, what, what, what do we fear?
Well ce soir, for a change, it will all be made clear,
For this is the Meaning of Life - c'est le sens de la vie -
This is the Meaning of Life.

[Beowulf]

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.

Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's b*gger all down here on Earth.

[Beowulf]

ok.. am listening to this song with a smile on my face. Thought I'd share

Sinead o'connor - Streets of London

"Have you seen the old man, in the closed-down market
kicking up the papers, with his worn-out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride, hands held loosely by his side
yesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl, who walks the streets of London
dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home, in two carrier bags

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

In the all-night cafe, at a quarter past eleven
same old man sitting there, on his own
Looking at the world, over the rim of his tea-cup
Each day lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind"

[Aleks]

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
