matchbox twenty - "If You're Gone" I think I've already lost you I think you're already gone. I think I'm finally scared now You think I'm weak - But I think you're wrong I think you're already leaving Feels like your hand is on the door I thought this place was an empire But now I'm relaxed - I can't be sure I think you're so mean - I think we should try I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - I think too much I know this is wrong it's a problem I'm dealing If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home Cuz there's a little bit of something me In everything in you I bet you're hard to get over I bet the room just won't shine I bet my hands I can stay here I bet you need - more than you mind I think you're so mean - I think we should try I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - that I know too much I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something me In everything in you I think you're so mean - I think we should try I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - do I talk too much I know it's wrong it's a problem I'm dealing --- I also like the lyrics to Train's "Drops of Jupiter" and the chorus to Alien Ant Farm's "Movies," mainly because they hold special significance to me.
One of my faves is Bushwick Bill, Ever So Clear. A great beat too. See, most of my life I never had **** I felt like an outcast, treated like a misfit Damn near didn't make it on my day of birth Thinking was I really supposed to be on this planet earth I take a deep breath, and then another follows Cos hardship is kinda hard to swallow See, it's rough bein a loner Not knowin any given day and time I could wind up a goner See, people got it bad from jump street And bein short is just another strike against me I used to get funny looks cos I was small And tryin to make it was like runnin through a brick wall Given the odds I was up against, bro The average ***** woulda quit a long time ago But now I've got a record out I'm doin shows, people payin to see me turn it out Now I'm the spice around town It's funny how an album can change a *****'s life around I got friends and b****es on my **** But when they look at Richard all they see is Bushwick Sometimes I don't know a friend from a foe And every different day it's a different ****in hoe And now that my pockets are gettin bigger I'm meetin hoes who only wanna juice a ***** They tell me that they love me and all that But really they just wait for me to fall flat So they can get me for my income Take me for all I got, and then some Like Trina, you dig I ****ed up and got too attached to the b****'s kid Knowin that she used the baby to use me Took him out my life, mentally abusin me But as the time went by I got another slimmy And she was just like the first one screamin gimme But not in the exact same way She had a different type of game she liked to play Her name was Crystal, she played the quiet type And for a little while **** seemed alright But just like the first hoe, homie When **** got hectic the b**** broke out on me And it's gettin outta hand, gee Cos nobody seems to understand me Reminiscin got me feelin kinda low I broke out the Ever-Clear and then I drunk some mo' Until it was all gone Now I'm lookin for somebody to take my pain out on But not just anybody, gee I'ma take that on to Mica cos she's the closest to me Full of that Ever-Clear and high on that buddah Get to the house all I'm thinkin bout is shootin her Cos shootin her would be sweet But you know what'd be sweeter? if I make her shootin me Call me crazy, but that's what I'm thinkin I'm trippin from all that smokin weed and drinkin But I knew she wouldn't do it on her own, so I provoked her Punched her, kicked her, and chocked her She still wouldn't grab the gun And at that time I wasn't thinkin about no one Damn near crazy I went and grabbed the baby Held him by the door and said i'ma throw his ass out, hoe She went to cryin, somebody stop him I said: you better grab the mutha****in gun or i'ma drop him She snatched the baby out of my hands We started fighting, punching, scratching, and biting When we fell on the bed, check this **** All kinds of crazy **** was goin through my head So I ran and got the gun and came back to her Loaded it up and handed the gat to her I grabbed her hand and placed the gun to my eye muscle She screamed stop and then we broke into another tussle Yo, durin the fight the gun went off quick Damn! aw ****, I'm hit (Aw... my eye, I can't see Why you shot me in the eye? I woulda shot you in the body Why you shot me in the eye?) Ridin in the ambulance everything is hectic I can't get a grip, I just can't check this Everybody's cryin, could it be I'm dyin Bullet in my head, in the bed was lyin Where's Mica? I wanna tell her I love her With an [ ] in my arm I took a picture for an album cover *******, the ****'s a trip, gee Five different doctors with needles tryin to stick me I hear my family hollerin he needs us Durin the confusion, man, I seen jesus My mom's on the phone long-distance from New York Here comes the doctors again tryin to rip me apart I got a monkey on my back, I can't shake it I'm havin suicidal thoughts hopin that I don't make it But I'ma make it cos something's steady urgin me Five hours passed, I made it through surgery And the doctor said I wouldn't make it through the night But god told me everything is gonna be alright And I'm glad that I'm here, gee But it's ****ed up I had to lose an eye to see **** clearly Aw man, I made it I made it And everyone gets to hear my story I made it But don't try this at your home Learn from my mistakes Kick the beat in, Bido

I'm going to have to go with Isabel and say anything by Counting Crows. I would also add anything by Sarah McLachlan. "Saint Robinson In His Cadillac Dream" Counting Crows Staring out of his window as the world rushes by Arthur Robinson closes the glass and replies, "I dream of ballerinas and I don't know why? But I see Cadillac's sailing. I was born on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay Maryland and Virginia have faded away And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today So I am endlessly waiting The comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean Out there in the shadow of the modern machine walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream Carrie's down in her basement all toe shoes and twinned With the girl in the mirror who spins when she spins, From where you think you will end up to the state that you're in Your reflection approaches and recedes again. Yeah And the comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean Out in the shadow of the modern machines Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream I had a dream of a black car that shimmers and drives Down the length of the evening to the carnival's side In a house where regret is a carousel ride We are spinning and spinning and spinning There's a hole in the ceiling down through which I fell There's a girl in the basement coming out of her shell And there are people who will say they knew me so well I may not go to heaven.. I hope that you go to hell! The comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean out there in the shadow of a modern machine Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream In his dream. St. Robinson in his dream. Some people are never quite what they seem Come on baby come on baby Lets just Get into my car and drive.

The Origin of Love from Hedwig & The Angry Inch written & performed by Stephen Trask When the earth was still flat, And the clouds made of fire, And mountains stretched up to the sky, Sometimes higher, Folks roamed the earth Like big rolling kegs. They had two sets of arms. They had two sets of legs. They had two faces peering Out of one giant head So they could watch all around them As they talked; while they read. And they never knew nothing of love. It was before the origin of love. The origin of love And there were three sexes then, One that looked like two men Glued up back to back, Called the children of the sun. And similar in shape and girth Were the children of the earth. They looked like two girls Rolled up in one. And the children of the moon Were like a fork shoved on a spoon. They were part sun, part earth, part daughter, part son, The origin of love Now the gods grew quite scared Of our strength and defiance And Thor said, "I'm gonna kill them all With my hammer, Like I killed the giants." And Zeus said, "No, You better let me Use my lightening, like scissors, Like I cut the legs off the whales And dinosaurs into lizards." Then he grabbed up some bolts And he let out a laugh, Said, "I'll split them right down the middle. Gonna cut them right up in half." And then storm clouds gathered above Into great balls of fire And then fire shot down From the sky in bolts Like shining blades Of a knife. And it ripped Right through the flesh Of the children of the sun And the moon And the earth. And some Indian god Sewed the wound up into a hole, Pulled it round to our belly to remind us of the price we pay. And Osiris and the gods of the Nile Gathered up a big storm To blow a hurricane, To scatter us away, In a flood of wind and rain, And a sea of tidal waves, To wash us all away, And if we don't behave They'll cut us down again And we'll be hopping round on one foot And looking through one eye. Last time I saw you We had just split in two. You were looking at me. I was looking at you. You had a way so familiar, But I could not recognize, Cause you had blood on your face; I had blood in my eyes. But I could swear by your expression That the pain down in your soul Was the same as the one down in mine. That's the pain, Cuts a straight line Down through the heart; We called it love. So we wrapped our arms around each other, Trying to shove ourselves back together. We were making love, Making love. It was a cold dark evening, Such a long time ago When by the mighty hand of Jove, It was the sad story How we became Lonely two-legged creatures, It's the story of The origin of love. That's the origin of love.
I like b****es, all type of b****es To take off my shirt and pull down my britches If she got big t*tties, I'll squeeze em and hold em While she suck my dick and lick my scrotum --Geto Boys, "Gangsta of Love" *********** I had a dream last night I was cast into hell by a jealous god The devil walked up and said "You won't need no lightning rod It hardly ever rains down here, I can't recall the last storm You ain't gonna need that leather jacket, it gets kinda warm There's one way in, no way out, looks like you're here to stay The place is a mess, it's over crowded and more are comin' in every day" I said, "Aw man, wait a minute there's gotta be something wrong I ain't a bad guy, I just write these little songs I always pay my union dues, and I don't stay in the passin' lane" And he said, "What about all that whisky and cocaine?" I said, "Well, yeah, but that's no reason to throw me in hell. I didn't use the cocaine to get high, I just liked the way it smelled." ... It looked like I was gonna be stuck here as far as I could tell I thought I might as well suck up, you know, what the hell I said, "You know that song that Charlie Daniels did About how you went down to Georgia and played fiddle agains that kid?" "Yeah", he said "it broke my heart, but, you know, what are you gonna do?" "Well to tell you the truth I thought your solo was the better of the two." Then I woke up and I was lying in my bed I ran up the stairs and kissed my little boy on his sleeping head I took this dream as a sign from God so I thought I better pray I said, "Don't ever speak to me directly and thanks anyway." Now so much has changed about me besides just giving up red meat Some get spiritual cause they see the light and some cause they feel the heat. -- Ray Wylie Hubbard, "Conversation With the Devil" ************** If it happened to be A thousand miles of sky were falling Only on me If it happened to be I’d throw it all away in anger And never believe, again If it happened to be I could lose it all Everything that matters to me Run to me Run to me and take my hand Run to me forever If it happened to be A flash of lightning then it’s over Eternal release It can happen you see Did I wait too long for a chance to say The things that I mean --Damon Johnson, "If It Happened To Be" ************** The best laid plans, in ashes on the ground The last two years, scattered all around The old preoccupation's nowhere to be found The close of a slamming door's a welcome sound Some things just aren't meant to be Like a raindrop, mistaken for the sea And if they ask me how I'll remember you The answer's in these pictures torn in two --The Refrainy Days, "Pictures Torn In Two"

Snoop is dominating this thread. Here's some more, from "**** You." Baby was a virgin, that's what she said So I gave her some Hennessey, she gave me some head I ****ed her on the floor so I wouldn't mess up my bed Then Little Half Dead put his dick on her head I had to pull over the first time I heard that song to avoid getting into a wreck.
Again ------- I heard from a friend today, And she said you were in town Suddenly the memories came back to me in My mind (chorus): How can I be strong I've asked myself Time and time I've said That I'll never fall in love with you again A wounded heart you gave, My soul you took away Good intentions you had many, I know you did I come from a place that hurts, God knows how I've cried And I never want to return Never fall again Making love to you it felt so good and Oh so right (chorus): How can I be strong I've asked myself Time and time I've said That I'll never fall in you love with you again So here we are along again, Didn't think it'd come to this And to know it all began With just a little kiss I've come too close to happiness, To have it swept away Don't think I can take the pain No never fall again Kinda late in the game And my hearts is in your hands Don't you stand there and then tell me You love me Then leave again 'Cause I'm falling in love with you again Hold me, hold me Don't ever let me go Say it just one time Say you love me God knows I do love you again ----------------- Some others: 'I Don't Know You Any More' Savage Garden 'Speaking In Tongues' Toni Braxton 'Strong Enough' Sheryl Crow 'Vision of Love' Mariah Carey 'For You' Kenny Lattimore 'Hysteria' Def Leppard 'Walking Away' Craig David --rockit
Big props to Rashmon, the only one who posted lyrics from the greatest of all lyricists Bob Dylan. My vote goes to everything by Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Elvis Costello and Lou Reed. Honorable mention to Tom Waits, Gil-Scott Heron and Pete Townshend. Special prizes go to Ice-T for Freedom of Speech, Tone Loc for Cheeba Cheeba and NWA for the whole of Straight Outta Compton. And Cole Porter didn't suck either. Now here's a bonus, specially for Rashmon, from the lowercase god of all things lyrical, even though it's not lyrics since it was never sung over music (It will help you all if you'll let it): Advice for Geraldine on her Miscellaneous Birthday stay in line. stay in step. people are afraid of someone who is not in step with them. it makes them look foolish t' themselves for being in step. it might even cross their minds that they themselves are in the wrong step. do not run nor cross the red line. if you go too far out in any direction, they will lose sight of you. they'll feel threatened. thinking that they are not a part of something that they saw go past them, they'll feel something's going on up there that they don't know about. revenge will set in. they will start thinking of how t' get rid of you. act mannerly towards them. if you don't, they will take it personal. as you come directly in contact face t' face do not make it a secret of how much you need them. if they sense that you have no need for them, the first thing they will do is try t' make you need them. if this doesn't work, they will tell you of how much they don't need you. if you do not show any sadness at a remark such as this, they will immediately tell other people of how much they don't need you. your name will begin t' come up in circles where people gather to tell about all the people they don't need. you will begin t' get famous this way. this, though, will only get the people who you don't need in the first place all the more madder. you will become a whole topic of conversation. needless t' say, these people who don't need you will start hating themselves for needing t' talk about you. then you yourself will start hating yourself for causing so much hate. as you can see, it will all end in one great gunburst. never trust a cop in a raincoat. when asked t' define yourself exactly, say you are an exact mathematician. do not say or do anything that he who standing in front of you watching cannot understand, he will feel you know something he doesn't. he will react with blinding speed and write your name down. talk on his terms. if his terms are old-fashioned an' you've passed that stage all the more easier t' get back there. say what he can understand clearly. say it simple t' keep your tongue out of your cheek. after he hears you, he can label you good or bad. anyone will do. t' some people, there is only good an' bad. in any case, it will make him feel somewhat important. it is better t' stay away from these people. be careful of enthusiasm...it is all temporary an' don't let it sway you. when asked if you go t' church, always answer yes, never look at your shoes. when asked you you think of gene autrey singing of hard rains gonna fall say that nobody can sing it as good as peter, paul and mary. at the mention of the president's name, eat a pint of yogurt an' go t' sleep early...when asked if you're a communist, sing america the beautiful in an italian accent. beat up nearest street cleaner. if by any chance you're caught naked in a parked car, quick turn the radio on full blast an' pretend that you're driving. never leave the house without a jar of peanut butter. do not wear matched socks. when asked to do 100 pushups always smoke a pound of deodorant beforehand. when asked if you're a capitalist, rip open your shirt, sing buddy can you spare a dime with your right foot forward an' proceed t' chew up a dollar bill. do not sign any dotted line. do not fall in trap of criticizing people who do nothing else but criticize. do Not create anything. it will be misinterpreted. it will not change. it will follow you the rest of your life. when asked what you do for a living say you laugh for a living. be suspicious of people who say that if you are not nice t' them, they will commit suicide. when asked if you care about the world's problems, look deeply into the eyes of he that asks you, he will not ask you again. when asked if you've spent time in jail, announce proudly that some of your best friends've asked you that. beware of bathroom walls that've not been written on. when told t' look at yourself...never look. when asked t' give your real name...never give it.
