Give us a Song! (lyrics thread)

a happy tune! and it is my tonky song of the day.

another postcard (chimps) - barenaked ladies

You can't imagine so many monkeys in the daily mail
All of them coming anonymously so they leave no trail
I never thought I'd have an admirer from overseas
But someone is sending me stationary filled with chimpanzees.

Some chimps in swimsuits, some chimps are swinging from a vine
Some chimps in jackboots, some chimps that wish they could be mine.
Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who's sitting on the can
A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.

Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.

If I had to guess, I'd say the monkey-sender thinks it's great
He's sending me, maybe she's sending me just to see me get irate
I'm losing sleep - and it's gonna be keeping me up all night
I thought it was funny, but now I've got money on a monkey fight.

Some chimps in hard hats, chimps a-working on a chain gang
Some chimps who love cats, burning rubber in a Mustang
A birthday-wishing chimp, a chimp in black like a goth
A goin' fishin' chimp, a British chimp in the bath.

Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.

Somehow they followed me even though I packed and moved my home
No matter what, they come and they come they won't leave me alone
Another monkey in the mail could make me lose my mind
But look at me shuffling through the stack until I finally find

Some chimps in swimsuits
Some chimps in Jackboots
Some chimps in hard hats
Some chimps who love cats
I've got some shaved chimps; that's chimps devoid of any hair
I've got depraved chimps dressed up in women's underwear.

Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.
Every one is every one is every one is addressed to me.
Another postcard with chimpanzees
And every one is addressed to me.
 
the used - blue and yellow :(

and it's all in how you mix the two
and it starts just where the light exists
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
and it burns a hole
through everyone that feels it

well your never gonna find it
if your looking for it
won't come your way
well you'll never find it
if your looking for it

should've done something but I've done it enough
by the way your hands were shaking
rather waste some time with you

and you never would have though in the end
how amazing it feels just to live again
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
it burns a hole through everyone that feels it

should've said something but I've said it enough
by the way my words were faded
rather waste some time with you
 
the science fiction double feature and reprise from RHPS

Usherette:
Michael Rennie was ill
The Day the Earth Stood Still
But he told us where we stand.
And Flash Gordon was there
In silver underwear,
Claude Rains was the Invisible Man.
Then something went wrong
For Fay Wray and King Kong.
They got caught in a celluloid jam.
Then at a deadly pace
It Came From...Outer Space.
And this is how the message ran:

Chorus:
Science fiction, double feature
Doctor X will build a creature.
See androids fighting Brad and Janet
Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet
Wuh uh uh oh o-o-oh
At the late night, double feature, picture show.

Usherette:
I knew Leo G. Carrol
Was over a barrel
When Tarantula took to the hills.
And I really got hot
When I saw Jeanette Scott
Fight a triffid that spits poison and kills.
Dana Andrews said Prunes
Gave him the runes
And passing them used lots of skills.
But When Worlds Collide,
Said George Pal to his bride,
"I'm gonna give you some terrible thrills,"
Like a...

Chorus:

Rocky Horror Song Eddie's Teddy:







Dr. Scott:
From the day he was born
He was trouble.
He was the thorn
In his mother's side.
She tried in vain

Narrator:
...but he never caused her nothing
but shame.

Dr. Scott:
He left home the day she died.

From the day she was gone
All he wanted
Was Rock `n' Roll porn
Und a motorbike.
Shooting up junk...

Narrator:
He was a low down cheap little punk!

Scott:
Taking everyone for a ride.

All:
When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy
You knew he was a no-good kid.
But when he threatened your life with a switch-blade knife

Frank:
What a guy!

Janet:
Makes you cry.

Scott:
Und I did.

Columbia:
Everybody shoved him.
I very nearly loved him.
I said, hey, listen to me;
Stay sane inside insanity!
But he locked the door and threw away the key.

Scott:
But he must have been drawn
Into something,
Making him warn
Me in a note which reads...

All:
What's it say? What's it say?

Eddie:
I'm out of my head.
Oh, hurry, or I may be dead.
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds. (scream)

All:
When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy
You knew he was a no-good kid.
But when he threatened your life with a switch-blade knife

Frank:
What a guy!

Makes you cry.

Und I did.

When Eddie said he didn't like his Teddy

Makes you cry. (Hey, hey, hey.)

Scott:
Und I did. (I did.)
 
and now superheroes from the RHPS as well


Brad:
I've done a lot; God knows I've tried
To find the truth. I've even lied.
But all I know is down inside

All:
I'm bleeding...

Janet:
And super heroes come to feast
To taste the flesh not yet deceased.
And all I know ... is still the beast

All:
Is feeding...

Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh,
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh, aaah, aaah.

Narrator:
And crawling on the planet's face
Some insects called the human race...
Lost in time
And lost in space
And meaning.

All:
Meaning.
 
Seether - "Gasoline"

Last night I saw that beauty queen
Watched her paint her face on
I wanna be that magazine
That she bases life on
I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She’s got nothing to say
She’s got bills to pay
She’s got no one to hate
Except for me

Last night I saw that beauty queen
She’s getting high on Revlon
I wanna be that magazine
That she wastes her life on
I wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She’s got nothing to say
She’s got bills to pay
She’s got no one to hate
Except for me
Me.

When I saw that beauty queen
And watched her paint her face on
I wanna be the one unclean
That she wipes her ass on
Wanna waste her monthly blood
Wanna get some on my love
Wanna get some gasoline
And burn the house down

She’s got nothing to say
She’s got bills to pay
She’s got no one to hate
Except for me
She’s got nothing but shame
She takes pills for pain
She’s got no one to blame
Except for me.
For me…

TITLE Godzilla

ALBUM · Spectres (1977)


LYRICS With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down

Helpless people on a subway train
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes tokyo
Go go godzilla, yeah

Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!

Oh no, they say he’s got to go
Go go godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes tokyo
Go go godzilla, yeah

History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla!

Don't Fear (the Reaper)

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness)
Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid)
Come on baby (and she had no fear)
And she ran to him (then they started to fly)
They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are)
She had taken his hand (she had become like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
 
Dust in Wind lyrics
from: Kansas

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind

[Now] Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy.

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind, everything is dust in the wind.
 
Carry On My Wayward Son Lyrics

by Kansas



{Refrain}
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say

{Refrain}

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

{Refrain}
No!

Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
 
glycerine - bush .......*sigh*

must be your skin that i'm sinking in

must be for real cuz now i can feel

and i didn't mind

it's not my kind

not my time to wonder why

everything's gone white

and everything's grey

now you're here now you're away

i don't want this

remember that

i'll never forget where you're at

don't let the days go by

glycerine

i'm never alone

i'm alone all the time

are you at one

or do you lie

we live in a wheel

where everyone steals

but when we rise it's like strawberry fields

if i treated you bad

you bruise my face

couldn't love you more

you got a beautiful taste

don't let the days go by

could have been easier on you

i couldn't change though i wanted to

could have been easier by three

our old friend fear and you and me

glycerine (repeat)

don't let the days go by

glycerine

bad moon white again

bad moon white again

and she falls around me

i needed you more

you wanted us less

i could not kiss just regress

it might just be

clear simple and plain

that's just fine

that's just one of my names

don't let the days go by

could've been easier on you

glycerine
 
Tonic - If you could only see
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Well you got your reasons
And you got your lies
And you got your manipulations
They cut me down to size
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Seems the road less traveled
Show's happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
That's what you gotta do
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
You're stretching out your arms to something that's just not there
Sayin' you love where you stand
Give your heart when you can
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
Sayin' you love where you stand
Give your heart when you can
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about or love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
 
para-noir by manson(damn it hurts being used for sex)


"Para-noir"

[Dita:] I'd fuck you because you are famous
I'd fuck you for your money
I'd fuck you to control you
I'd fuck you so someday I can have half of everything you own
I'd fuck you to fuck you over
I'd fuck you until I find someone better
Then fuck you in secret
I'd fuck you because I can't remember if I'd already fucked you before
I'd fuck you out of boredom
I'd fuck you because I can't feel anything anyways
I'd fuck you to make the pain go away

[Manson:]
Fuck you because I loved you
Fuck you for loving it, too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Fuck you because I loved you
Fuck you for loving it, too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do

[Dita:]
I'd fuck you so I could feel something instead of nothing at all
I'd fuck you because you are beautiful
I'd fuck you because you are my nigger
I'd fuck you because I am your whore
I'd fuck you because you are a whore
I'd fuck you for fun
I'd fuck you for fun
I'd fuck you because I can't
I'd fuck you so I have a place to stay
I'd fuck you so you will protect me
[Manson:]
Fuck you because I loved you
Fuck you for loving it, too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Fuck you because I loved you
Fuck you for loving it, too
I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do

I don't need a reason to hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
Hate you the way I do
 
tainted love cover by manson



"Tainted Love"

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
I've lost my lights
I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
You think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love

Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
 
My name is Mud by Primus(i know they suck)

My Name Is Mud
My name is Mud
Not to be confused with Bill or Jack or Pete or Dennis
My name is mud and it's always been
'Cause I'm the most boring sons-a-bitch you've ever seen
I dress in blue-yes navy blue
>From head to toe I'm rather drab except my patent shoes
I make 'em shine, well most the time
'Cept today my feet are troddin' on by this friend of mine
Six foort two and rude as hell
I got to get him in the ground before he starts to smell
My name is Mud

My name is Mud, but call me Alowishus Devadander Abercrombie
That's long for Mud so I've been told
Told that by this sonsabitch that lies before me bloated blue and cold
I've got my pride, I drink my wine
I'd drink the finest except I haven't earned a dime in several months
Or were it years
The breath on that fat bastard could bring any man to tears
We had our words, a common spat
So I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat
My name is Mud
 
Bob by Primus
I had a friend that took a blet, took a blet and hung himself
Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
His woman and his little bro came home from the grocery store
Only to find him dangling in the apartment where he lived

I had a friend who shaved his head
Put his Doctor Martins on
And drew such wondrous pictures in the apartment where he lived
He praised my creativity, though he spoke sarcastically
Oh, the conversations in the apartment where he lived

I had a friend that took a blet, took a belt and hung himself
Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
Rock, she thought him spiteful; Ler, he thought him pitiful
Me, I've never been back to the apartment where he lived
 
another anthem of mine i had forgotten...gotta love bearshare....

the violent femmes - Good feeling

good feeling
won't you stay with me just a little longer
it always seems like your leaving
when I need you here just a little longer
dear lady there's so many things
that I have come to fear
little voice says I'm going crazy
to see all my worlds disappear
vague sketch of a fantasy
laughing at the sunrise
like he's been up all night
ooo slippin and slidin
what a good time but now
have have to find a bed
that can take this weight
good feeing
won't you say stay with me just a little longer
it always seems like your leaving
when I know the other one
just a little too well
oh dear lady
won't you stay with me just a little longer
y'know it always seems like your leaving
when I need you here just a little longer
 
I watched The Last American Virgin this weekend -I hadn't heard this song in ages!​
Lionel Richie - Oh No​
I want you to want me
I'm goin' crazy knowin' he will be your lover tonight
And when he comes I'll let you go
I'll just pretend as you walk out the door

Oh no ...
I can't sleep
Oh no ...
I'm goin' crazy with love, over you

I need you to need me
I wanna hold ya but you're holdin' someone else in
Your arms
When I close my eyes, I see your face
I'm just not sure how much my heart can erase

Oh no ...
I can't think
Oh no ...
I'm goin' crazy with love over you

Oh honey ....​

Oh sugar ....

Oh no .. I can't sleep anymore baby
Oh no .. I can't think anymore baby
Oh no .. I'm goin' crazy with love over you
