synthfreek Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 CAUSE WE'VE ENDED AS LOVERS Sneaking kisses in the hall Parting love notes are on the wall Been each other's all and all each day Lovers walking in the rain So close we felt each other's pain But now you say that love has died away *'Cause we've ended now as lovers Doesn't mean that we each other can't be friends 'Cause we've ended now as lovers Does our love for one another have to end I remember teaching you On piano 'Tea for Two' And how playing it wrong I kissed your hand But when our love has gone and passed Why does the good exceed the bad Well that's one thing I'll never understand 'Cause I remember us at class You were always the one to pass And gave me answers right to see me through But that was more than years ago And who will love me I don't know It's sad for sure but true it won't be you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

synthfreek Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 I did that on purpose clu. Beck's version is a cover of the Stevie Wonder track here. I have to say that Blow By Blow is one of my favorite guitar albums of all time and that track in specific is AWESOME. Truly inspired. I used to be able to play the stupid thing note for note. Maybe I'll dust off my Strat and play along to it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Favog Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 How 'bout his version of "Ain't No Sunshine (when she's gone)". I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.....LOL OK!! Here's a vote for the wierdest lyrics. Stackridge's "No One's More Important Than The Earth Worm". I'll post it later... Here it is: I can sit on sands by the sea. And watch the vikings a-facinating me by the moonlight. Everything a-changin' except the moon and tide. There are green lands, rivers and trees and sands. Where birds sing, animal paradise a-crackling. Make me glad to be an earthling. But the ostrich always gets his man. He jumps out from a bush. He can run faster than the zebra can. But it always takes a push in the morning. Burying the head he was born in. No one's more important than the earth worm. There are minors rather than majors every single time. Just as long as I can make the end rhyme. It's just too late, I just can't change my birth sign. The one day when yellows and greens and blues are over. Just lay me 'neath the last square inch of clover. No one's more important than the earth worm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluless Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 LOL - Weird lyrics...this could become a VERRRRY long thread...ha ha Yesterday it seemed so cool and everything was fabulous Built of brick and made for an eternity; Give an inch and take an inch and what you've got is where you were the universe is based on sullen entropy -It falls apart as it goes on Yesterday I saw the Devil in the nude, it was embarrassing -I turned away- He was leering in the mirror when I looked again Everything you say you won't is what you will eventually Honesty is money in the cemetery If he treat you horribly he's probably a Scorpio He's a long kebab through your ovaries -The same goes out, the same goes in Yesterday I saw the Devil in a mood. He wasnt angry, but he stood around Biting off the legs of all his furry chums I remember everything as if it happened years ago Probably it did so I remember it You are just your feelings it might give you vertigo Falling off a high place and into it -Just as I fell into you Yesterday I saw the Devil in my food. I wasn't hungry, But I played with it- Blood red horns gouged through my scrambled (egg) Yesterday I saw the Devil in my heart-I was expecting him The doctor came- I haave to call the doctor every time we kiss The Devils Coachman Robyn Hitchcock 'n' the Egyptians Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 How about some Tom Lehrer! Poisoning Pigeons in the Park Opening Remarks (not part of lyrics): I'd like to take you now on wings of song as it were, and try and help you forget, perhaps, for a while, your drab wretched lives. Here is a song all about springtime in general, and in particular about one of the many delightful pastimes that the becoming of spring affords us all. Lyrics: Spring is here, a-suh-puh-ring is here. Life is skittles and life is beer. I think the loveliest time of the year is the spring. I do, don't you? 'Course you do. But there's one thing that makes spring complete for me, And makes every Sunday a treat for me. All the world seems in tune On a spring afternoon, When we're poisoning pigeons in the park. Every Sunday you'll see My sweetheart and me, As we poison the pigeons in the park. When they see us coming, the birdies all try an' hide, But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide. The sun's shining bright, Everything seems all right, When we're poisoning pigeons in the park. We've gained notoriety, And caused much anxiety In the Audubon Society With our games. They call it impiety And lack of propriety, And quite a variety Of unpleasant names. But it's not against any religion To want to dispose of a pigeon. So if Sunday you're free, Why don't you come with me, And we'll poison the pigeons in the park. And maybe we'll do In a squirrel or two, While we're poisoning pigeons in the park. We'll murder them all amid laughter and merriment, Except for the few we take home to experiment. My pulse will be quickenin' With each drop of strych'nine We feed to a pigeon. (It just takes a smidgin!) To poison a pigeon in the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 cluless, If you've never heard Tom Lehrer you're in for a treat. Pick up or borrow one of his CD's and be prepared for some modern-sounding semi-sick humor that he wrote back in the late 1950's (1959 I think). The man was very much ahead of his time, plays the piano well, and is very intelligent too! Whenever work gets to be a bee-otch I'll throw on one of his LP's or CD's, it brings a smile to my face in this current politically correct environment.

kidproquo Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 Hi guys, Well, I really like Mark Knopfler (the lead singer of Dire Straits). He has some cool lyrics, especially in his solo albums like Golden Heart and Sailing to Philadelphia. Also, in most of his songs, he ends them with some cool guitar jamming. I wish they would release an album just with those guitar sessions! On song from Golden Heart is Done With Bonaparte. Here he speaks from a soldier's point of view who belongs to Napoleon's army. The song goes like this: We've paid in hell since Moscow burned As Cossacks tear us piece by piece Our dead are strewn a hundred leagues Though death would be a sweet release And our grande arm¨¦e is dressed in rags A frozen starving beggar band Like rats we steal each other's scraps Fall to fighting hand to hand Save my soul from evil, Lord And heal this soldier's heart I'll trust in thee to keep me, Lord I'm done with Bonaparte What dreams he made for us to dream Spanish skies, Egyptian sands The world was ours, we marched upon Our little Corporal's command And I lost an eye at Austerlitz The sabre slash yet gives me pain My one true love awaits me still The flower of the aquitaine Save my soul from evil, Lord And heal this soldier's heart I'll trust in thee to keep me, Lord I'm done with Bonaparte I pray for her who prays for me A safe return to my belle France We prayed these wars would end all wars In war we know is no romance And I pray our child will never see A little Corporal again Point toward a foreign shore Captivate the hearts of men Save my soul from evil, Lord And heal this soldier's heart I'll trust in thee to keep me, Lord I'm done with Bonaparte Do check him out. You won't regret it. -kpq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundthought Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 M.O.D. - Ode to Harry. Harry hopped in his car, and turned the key. Started up and headed down the L.I.E. Too cheap to own a real car, he had a Volkswagon Rabbit. That put an end, to Harrys' cheap habit. The trucker couldn't stop, so the driver took aim. And when he hit Harry... Harry burst into flames. Your dead now Harry... you can't come back... You'd still be alive if you drove a Cadillac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidproquo Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 Hi guys, Check out Troglodytes by Jimmy Castor Bunch. It's hilarious! TROGLODYTE (CAVE MAN) Jimmy Castor Note: While there is a pounding beat in the background, the song is spoken rather than sung What we're gonna do right here is go back, way back, back into time. When the only people that existed were troglodytes...cave men... cave women...Neanderthal...troglodytes. Let's take the average cave man at home, listening to his stereo. Sometimes he'd get up, try to do his thing. He'd begin to move, something like this: "Dance...dance". When he got tired of dancing alone, he'd look in the mirror: "Gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman". He'd go down to the lake where all the woman would be swimming or washing clothes or something. He'd look around and just reach in and grab one. "Come here...come here". He'd grab her by the hair. You can't do that today, fellas, cause it might come off. You'd have a piece of hair in your hand and she'd be swimming away from you (ha-ha). This one woman just lay there, wet and frightened. He said: "Move...move". She got up. She was a big woman. BIG woman. Her name was Bertha. Bertha Butt. She was one of the Butt sisters. He didn't care. He looked up at her and said: "Sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me!". She looked down on him. She was ready to crush him, but she began to like him. She said (falsetto): "I'll sock it to ya, Daddy". He said: "Wha?". She said (falsetto): "I'll sock it to ya, Daddy". You know what he said? He started it way back then. I wouldn't lie to you. When she said (falsetto) "I'll sock it to ya, Daddy" he said "Right on! Right on! Hotpants! Hotpants! Ugh...ugh...ugh". -kpq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
