These Lyrics descibe me perfectly, I always have to sing along when this song comes on the radio

Bitch by Meredith Brooks

I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing

Just when you think, you got me figured out
The season's already changing
I think it's cool, you do what you do
And don't try to save me

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

 

Hey Jude
The Beatles

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember, to let her into your heart, then you can start, to make it better.

Hey Jude, don't be afraid. You were made to, go out and get her.
The minute, you let her under your skin, then you begin, to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
don't carry the world, upon, your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool, who plays, it cool
by making his world, a little, colder.

Hey Jude, don't let me down. You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember, to let her into your heart, then you can start, to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
you're waiting for someone to, perform with.
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do,
the movement you need, is on your shoulder.

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song, and make it better.
Remember, to let her under your skin, then you'll begin, to make it
better, better, better, better, better, better, oh.

Da, da da, da da da, da; da da da, da; hey Jude (repeat 16 times and fade out)

 

Time by Pink Floyd

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

 

^ I know the guitar solo to that

 

I love the Beatles too!!! Their lyrics are so great.

My favorite lyrics (excerpts from the songs)

All You Need Is Love
"All you need is love, love,
Love is all you need!"
~The Beatles

Beautiful Boy
"Before you cross the street, take my hand.
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans..."
~John Lennon

Give Me Love:
"Give me love
Give me love
Give me peace on earth
Give me light
Give me life
Keep me free from burden
Give me hope
Help me cope, with this heavy load
Trying to, touch and reach you with,
Heart and soul"
~George Harrison

Photograph:
"Ev'ry time I see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all I got is a photograph
And I realise you're not coming back anymore..."
-George Harrison and Ringo Starr

Across the Universe
"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
Through my open views inviting and inciting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
Million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world."
~The Beatles

War! huh-yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Uh-huh

War! huh-yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again y'all

War! huh good God
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me?

Ohhh? War! I despise
Because it means destruction?
Of innocent lives

War means tears
to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight
and lose their lives

I said - War! Huh Good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again

War! Whoa, Lord ...
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me?

War! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War! Friend only to the undertaker
War! It's an enemy to all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind

War has caused unrest in the younger generation
Induction then destruction-
Who wants to die?

Ohhh? War Good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it, Say it, Say it

War! Uh-huh Yeah - Huh!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me?

War! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War! It's got one friend, that's the undertaker
War has shattered many a young mans dreams
Made him disabled bitter and mean
Life is much to precious to spend fighting wars these days
War can't give life, it can only take it away

War! Huh Good God y'all
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again

War! Whoa, Lord ...
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me?

War! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
War! Friend only to the undertaker
Peace Love and Understanding;
tell me, is there no place for them today?
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

War! Huh Good God y'all
What is it good for?
You tell me
Say it, Say it, Say it

War! Huh Good God y'all
What is it good for?
Stand up and shout it.
Nothing!

Number 2
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says "Son if it was up to me"
Went down to see my V.A. man
He said "Son, don't you understand"

I had a brother at Khe Sahn fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

Born in the U.S.A.
I was born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A.

Here With Me-Dido
I didn?t hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
I don?t want to move a thing
It might change my memory
Oh I am what I am
I?ll do what I want
But I can?t hide
I won?t go
I won?t sleep
I can?t breathe
Until you?re resting here with me
I won?t leave
I can?t hide
I cannot be
Until your resting here with me

I don?t want to call my friends
They might wake me from this dream
And I can?t leave this bed
Risk forgetting all that?s been

Oh I am what I am
I?ll do what I want
But I can?t hide
I won?t go
I won?t sleep
I can?t breathe
Until you?re resting here with me
I won?t leave
I can?t hide
I cannot be
Until your resting here with me
-------------------------------------------------------

The Nullarbor Song-Kasey Chambers
When the fire burns out here
It's brighter than the city lights
Warmer than a heart of gold
And dingo's howl just to break the silence
The sun comes up just to break the cold
Last night I woke
With the stars looking back at me
Swallowing the sky
I felt no anger, I felt no shame
I felt no reason to cry

If I'm not here in the morning
I'll cry a river of tears
But I'll learn to live in a new town
But my heart is staying here

When it's quiet out here
A hundred miles away
You can hear the train on the line
The whistle blows just to break the silence
I wave just to break the time
I close my eyes
I think of runnin' water
I think of runnin' away
But the fires burnt to ashes
And it's darker than before
But I can see as clear as day
----------------------------------------------------

Worry About You-Ivy
Bye, Bye, Baby
Don't Be Long
I Worry About You
While You're Gone

Bye, Bye, Baby
Don't Be Long
I Worry About You
While You're Gone

I think of you in my dreams
You never know, just what you mean, to me
To me

Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda

Bye Bye Baby
Don't be long
I Worry about you
While you're Gone

Bye Bye Baby
Don't be long
I Worry about you
While you're Gone

I think of you night and day
I never know just what you meant, to say
To say

Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda
Doo ba badda Doo ba badda

 

More of my favorite lyrics:

Something, the Beatles (George Harrison)
"Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me

I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe her now

Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me

Don't want to leave her now
You know I believe her now

You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now it may show
I don't know, I don't know

Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me

Don't want to leave her now
You know I believe her now"




Dear Prudence, the Beatles (Lennon/McCartney)
"Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence, won't you come out and play?

Dear Prudence, open up your eyes
Dear Prudence, see the sunny skies
The wind is low the birds will sing
That you are part of everything
Dear Prudence, won't you open up your eyes?

Look around round
Look around round round
Look around

Dear Prudence, let me see you smile
Dear Prudence, like a little child
The clouds will be a daisy chain
So let me see you smile again
Dear Prudence, won't you let me see you smile?

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play
Dear Prudence, and greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you
Dear Prudence, won't you come out and play?"

 

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Of a better life
In this world
Divided by fear
We've gotta believe that
There's a reason we're here
Yeah, there's a reason we're here

'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

See the truth all around
Our faith can be broken
And our hands can be bound
But open our hearts and fill up the emptiness
With nothing to stop us
Is it not worth the risk?
Yeah, is it not worth the risk?

'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
'Cause these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

We can't go on
Thinking it's wrong
To speak our minds
I've gotta let out what's inside

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Can we get it right?
Yeah, well can we get it right?

'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
These are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
-The Calling
"Our Lives"



It makes me wanna go ask out the first girl I see.

BTW - I should mention, in the wake of so many Beatles posts, that I don't think they have any bad songs and so it is impossible for me to pick out any - they are all wonderful.


You're a Better Man Than I by Sham 69

Can you judge a man by the way he wears his hair
Can you read his mind by the clothes that he wears
Can you see a fat man by the pattern on his tie

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I

Could you tell a wise man by the way he speaks or spells
Is this more important than the stories that he tells
And call a man a fool if for wealth he doesn't strive

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I

Can you condemn a man if your faith he doesn't hold
Say the colour of his skin is the colour of his soul
Can you say that men for king and country all must die

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
