Post some lyrics that you like

The sun came out & hung above
Over our heads but far enough to see
A bomb exploding in another town
Children choking on a poison cloud
While on the streets, where lovers once walked,
Side by side in idle talk
Bullets fall like unholy rain
People change as the panic sets in,
A frightened baby by her dead mother's side
In a brutal world where there's nowhere
To run, hide or cry
Now nothing feels the same way,
Feels like it's changing again,
Upon a street with no name
It's hard to find it again
I ran as fast as my feet could fly
Down country lanes where I took my time-
Time like a hound snapping at my heels
I got past thinking so I could feel,
Feels like a film playing in my head
And I kept rolling down green Surrey hills,
In Spring
Now nothing feels the same way
Feels like I'm changing again
Upon a street with no name
It's hard to find me again,
The sun came out & hung above, over our heads
But far enough to see

 

Nirvana - Pennyroyal Tea
“Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld / So I can sigh eternally.”

 

I was born on a Dublin street where the royal drums did beat,
And those loving English feet they tramped all over us,
And each and every night when me father came home tight
He'd invite the neighbors outside with this chorus:
Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man,
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell them how the IRA made you run like * away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra.
Come tell us how you slew them poor Arabs two by two,
Like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows,
How you bravely faced each one with your 16-pounder gun,
And you frightened them poor natives to their marrow.
Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man,
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell them how the IRA made you run like * away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra.
Come let us hear you tell how you slandered great Parnell,
When you thought him well and truly persecuted,
Where are the sneers and jeers that you bravely let us hear
When our heroes of '16 were executed?
Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man,
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell them how the IRA made you run like * away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra.
Well the day is coming fast and the time is here at last,
When each yeoman will be cut aside before us,
And if there be a need, sure me kids would sing, "Godspeed, "
With a verse or two of Stephen Behan's chorus:
Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man,
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell them how the IRA made you run like * away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra.

 

You're what you wanna be, a wannabe 'cause that's what you want
Follow in front of me, it's fun to be put up as a front
If you can fake it till you make it then you'll get what you want
It doesn't make you any less of a insufferable *

You wanna seem as if you see me so your fake eyes will see
Turn every turn of phrase around till you don't know what it means
I wish I could have understood that you're afraid to confront
But I can't be vaguer, understated, so I guess I'll be blunt

Yeah, I just wanna * be done
Yeah, I just wanna * be done
Yeah, I just wanna * be done

 

Aerosmth- F.I.N.E.

I shoved my tongue right between your cheeks
I haven't made love now for 25 weeks
I hear that you're so tight
You're loving squeaks
But I'm ready, so ready.

The Smiths- The Queen Is Dead.

I broke into the palace
With a sponge and a rusty spanner
She said I know you and you cannot sing
I said that's nothing, you should hear me play piano

 

one of the first records i bought. up the junction-squeeze

 

Unicorns and cannonballs
Palaces and piers
Trumpets towers and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Flags rags ferryboats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars
You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like comet
Blazing your trail
Too high too far too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

 

Libraries gave us power
Then work came and made us free
What price now
For a shallow piece of dignity
I wish I had a bottle
Right here in my dirty face
To wear the scars
To show from where I came
We don't talk about love
We only wanna get drunk
And we are not allowed to spend
As we are told that this is the en

 

Just a great line...

I have fallen for another, she can make her own way home.

 

'What time is it?' Said the Judge,
To Joey when they met,
5 to 10 said Joey,
Judge says 'that's exactly what you get'

 

Allen, Larkin, and O'Brien
How you bravely called them swine
Robert Emmett who you hung and drew and quartered
High upon that gallows high,
How you murdered Henry Joy
And our Croppy Boys from Wexford you did slaughter

 

Well we busted out of class had to get away from those fools
We learnt more from a three minute record than we ever did at school
