FF:NSW Lyrics/poetry. only for the very deep

nah hell never feed you hes too lazy like the rest of us

 

I always found Mr Jones by Counting Crows to be very significant. It's all about human longing, for fame and to be noticed and loved. The guy discovered that fame won't satisfy that, he changed the lyrics a bit to reflect that in a live version I heard.

 

here's one:
"Mashed potato, mashed potato. mashed, potato mashed potato. mashed potato, mashed potato. potato. potato, potato, potato!"

 

the wiggles!

 

oooo the wiggles

 

I think the words to "The Pilgrim" by Tatterdemalion are by far the best the band has done. I doubt they will be bettered.

 

IN THE END
it starts with
one thing/ i don't know why
it doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind/ i designed this rhyme
to explain in due time
all i know
time is a valuable thing
watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
watch it count to the end the day
the clock ticks away life
it's so unreal
didn't look out below
watch the time go right out the window
trying to hold on/ but didn't even know
watch you go
i keep everything inside and even though i tried/ it all fell apart
what it meant to me/ will eventually/ be a memory/ of a time when

i tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end
it doesn't even matter
i had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end
it doesn't even matter

and im too lazy to type the rest at the moment so thats the song by linkin park

 

And you, bring me to my knees
again. All the times,
I had to beg you
-in vain
All the times,
That I felt insecure
for you and I leave
my burdens at the door

Chorus.
But I'm on the outside
I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colours
Cause inside you're ugly
You're ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you

All the times that i felt
like this wont end
was for you
And I taste what i could
never have
it's from you
All the times that I've
tried, my intentions,
full of pride
But I waste more time
Than anyone

Chorus

All the times that
I've cried,
All this wasted,
It's all inside
And i feel all this
pain stuffed it down
It's back again and
I lie here in bed
All alone, I can't mend
-but I feel
Tomorrow will be ok

 

With the words "only for the very deep" gracing the title I steered clear of this thread up until now. But I'm bored. So I read it anyway. And I can make a contribution.

"I'll be coming home next year" - Next Year, Foo Fighters.

It meant a lot to me when I realised that I'd be moving overseas for up to a year.

 

hell man, it almost brought us to tears.

and even most of this year, it still meant a lot.

but not after the trip over there.

how bout this one, from Stabbing Westward.
"I hope I see you on your way down,
I hope you break every bone,
I hope it kills you on your way down.
And I hope you die alone".

Needless to say, someone you really don't like.

 

Would this be an appropriate song to sing to the Memphis metldown man then PM?

 

And also to sing while dancing on Ms Streisand's grave.

 

Don't forget Barneys grave too

 

Yes. damn that purple dinosaur.
[silver surfer] To me, my hitmen! [silver sufer]

 

eh heh


All the songs from FOTR sound track

 

For you by Staind

 

Jane Siberry- It cant rain all the time
SPOKEN:
We walked the narrow path,
Beneath the smoking skies.
Sometimes you can barely tell the difference
Between darkness and light.
Do you have faith
In what we believe?
The truest test is when we cannot,
When we cannot see.

SUNG:
I hear punding feet in the,
In the streets below, and the,
And the women crying and the,
And the children know that there,
Thats there's something worng,
Its hard to believe that love will prevail

Oh it wont rain all the tim.
The sky won't fall forever.
And tho the night seems long,
Your tears won't fall forever.

Oh, when I'm lonely,
I lie awake at night
and I wish you were here.
I miss you.
Can you tell me
is there something more to believe in?
Or is all there is?

In the punding feet, in the,
In the streets below, and the,
And the window breaks and,
And a women falls, there's,
There's something wrong, it's,
It's so hard to believe that love will prevail.

Oh it won't rain all the time.
The sky won't fall forever.
And tho the night seems long,
Youe tears won't fall, your tears wont fall, your tears won't fall forever.

Last night I had a dream,
You came into my room,
You took me in your arms.
Whispering and kissing me,
And telling me to stilll believe.
But then the emptiness of a burning sea against which we see
our darkest of sadness.

Until I felt safe and warm.
I fell asleep in your arms.
When I awoke I cried again for you were gone
Oh, can you hear me?

It won't rain all the time.
The sky won't fall forever.
And tho the night seems long,
Your tears won't fall forever.
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever.
And tho the night seems long,
Your tears won't fall, your tears won't fall, your tears won't fall forever.

 

Oh! So many songs!!!

Start with my top two.

First: "Dancing Barefoot" by Patti Smith (apparently covered by U2 as well).It was used in a big way in an episode of Millenium, where i first heard it, with obvious religious connotations....




She is benediction
She is addicted to Thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with He

here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
could it be He's taking over me...

I'm dancing barefoot
heading for a spin
some strange music draws me in
makes me come on like some heroin/e

She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee
She is concentrating on
He, who is chosen by She

here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly,
could it be He's taking over me...

[chorus]

She is re-creation
She, intoxicated by Thee
She has the slow sensation that
He is levitating with She ...

here I go and I don't know why,
I spin so ceaselessly,
'til I lose my sense of gravity...

[chorus]

(oh god I fell for you ...)

the plot of our life sweats
in the dark like a face
the mystery of childbirth,
of childhood itself
grave visitations
what is it that calls to us?
why must we pray screaming?
why must not death be redefined?
we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms
and whirl on a pane of glass
an afixiation
a fix on anything
the line of life the limb of a tree
the hands of He and the promise that She is blessed among women.

(oh god I fell for you ...)

 

No Surprises
Radiohead

A heart that's full up like a landfill.
A job that slowly kills you.
Bruises that won't heal.

You look so tired, unhappy.
Bring down the Government.
They don't......they don't speak for us.

I'll take the quiet life.
A handshake
No carbon monoxide

With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises.

Silence.
Silence.
This is my final fit.
My final bellyache.

With no alarms and no surprises.
No alarms and no surprises.
Please.

Such a pretty house.
And such a pretty garden.

With no alarms and no surprises.
No alarms and no surprises.
Please.

 

Wow, I have so many. I'll try to keep it to one this post.

Superman, Five for Fighting:

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird, ­I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd, ­but don't be nieve
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, ­but won't you conceed
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away, ­away from me
It's all right, You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy, ­or anything;­

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that nieve
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It's not easy to be me.

Edit: Lyrics sites can't spell.

 

Lithium
Nirvana

I'm so happy cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head.
I'm so ugly but that's OK cause so are you.
We broke our mirrors.
Sunday morning is every day for all I care.
And I'm not scared.
Light my candles in a daze cause I found God.

Yeah.

I'm so lonely.
That's OK, I shaved my head.
And I'm not sad.
And just maybe I'm to blame for all I heard.
But I'm not sure.
I'm so excited, I can't wait to meet you there.
And I don't care.
I'm so horny.
That's OK, my will is good.

Yeah.

I like it, I'm not gonna crack.
I miss you, I'm not gonna crack.
I love you, I'm not gonna crack.
I killed you, I'm not gonna crack.

 

myorg if i could find the translation for oh fortuna i'd put that up

 

Wrong
Archers Of Loaf

You got it all wrong.
You can't get it right.
Why don't you climb down from off my back
and won't you get yourself a job somewhere away from?
Cause I don't want to see your face anymore.
Because I don't want you on my case in the morning.

And I'm just being honest.
It's the least I can do.
You say I'll never be honest you
but you don't deserve it anyway.

No I do not think that you could love me anyway
because you are inferior to me.
No no, I do not think that you could ove me anyway
because you are superior to me.

(repeat verse and chorus)

She gets what she wanted (x4)

 

"Wish you were here" by Incubus.

I dig my toes into the sand.
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds,
Strewn across a blue blanket.
I lean against the wind,
Pretend that I am weightless.
And in this moment I am happy.

I wish you were here.
