Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing​

You get a shiver in the dark
It’s been raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing dixie double four time
You feel all right when you hear that music ring

You step inside but you don’t see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Too much competition too many other places
But not too many horns can make that sound
Way on downsouth way on downsouth london town

You check out guitar george he knows all the chords
Mind he’s strictly rhythm he doesn’t want to make it cry or sing
And an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And harry doesn’t mind if he doesn’t make the scene
He’s got a daytime job he’s doing alright
He can play honky tonk just like anything
Saving it up for friday night
With the sultans with the sultans of swing

And a crowd of young boys they’re fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
They don’t give a damn about any trumpet playing band
It ain’t what they call rock and roll
And the sultans played creole

And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
’thank you goodnight now it’s time to go home’
And he makes it fast with one more thing
’we are the sultans of swing’​

This thread used to be about posting the song you were listening to. Now it's about posting the LYRICS to the song you're listening to. We've come a long way. Now while you're waiting for tracks to change you have to search for somewhere to copy and paste the lyrics from.

P.O.D - Boom​

I never knew that a kid like me
Could take his mic around the world and flash the big S.D.
And rock the masses, from Madrid to Calabassas
Tijuana, Mexico, bootleg demos in Tokyo
They know me though, 'cause I be puttin' in work
Commit my life to rebirth, well respected, 'cause that's my word
I'm sure you heard (heard), about a new sound going around
She might have left my hood, but she was born in my town

You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I know you know, I see you smiling at me
Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, How you like me now?

I said
We rep. the South, so what you talking about
I'm not running off my mouth, I know this without a doubt
'Cause if you know these streets, then these streets know you
When it's time to handle business, then you know what to do (what to do)
Me and my crew, we stay true, old skool or new
Many were called, but the chosen are few (were a few)
We rise to the top, what you want? Just in case you forgot
Rush the stage, grab my mic, show me what you got

You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I know you know, I see you smiling at me
Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, How you like me now?

I said
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South
Boom! Here comes the Boom!
Ready or not, How you like me now?

Is that all you got?
I'll take your best shot.
(6x)
I'll take your best shot.(2x)

is that all you got
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I'll take your best shot.

is that all you got
Well, it's alright! It's alright!
I'll take your best shot.

is that all you got
I'll take your best shot.
Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Hellwolf was going to respond to my accusations, but then he realized that all he needed for the +1 was to copy and paste lyrics.

Soil - Inside​

Take your time take all your time baby
C'mon
Take your time take it anytime
Raise the line raise the line everytime
C'mon
Raise the line
Raise it above my mind
Everything that stains me and breaks me
It's just a gut reaction trapped in this aggressive action

I: Rise:

Everything is right here color me unsold
Everything is right here inside

Take the pain wash it all away baby
C'mon
Take the pain rip it all away
Take my hand take it anytime friend
C'mon
Take my hand take it anytime
Just like the king's men's nightmare
So low gotta see me to feel me
It's just a gut reaction
Trapped in this aggressive action

Everytime I give up something
I end up with less than mine
Turn around and see what's given
It's still less than

I called that one. Countdown to track change.

Basically. I'm probbly the only person who explains most of m,y posts instead of lyrics'ing them.

The Pillows - Shooting Star.

The ending theme from FLCL is just too addicting.

 

[CelestialBadger]

Too bad one person talking doesn't equal a conversation. Can we just please face the reality that this forum is too ****ing stupid to engage in discussion?

 

[ChrisH36]

Yes, and I have discovered that in 2004 sirs.

Def Leppard - Photograph​

I'm outta luck, outta love
Got a photograph, picture of
Uh, passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I wanna touch
I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild and free, so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh! Look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh oh! Look what you've done

Photograph - I don't want your
Photograph - I don't need your
Photograph - all I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough

I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child, oh
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild, so free, and so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh! Look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh oh! Look what you've done

Photograph - I don't want your
Photograph - I don't need your
Photograph - all I've got is a photograph
You've gone straight to my head

Oh! Look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh oh! Look what you've done
I gotta have you

Photograph - I don't want your
Photograph - I don't need your
Photograph - all I've got is a photograph
I wanna touch you

Photograph
Photograph - your photograph
Photograph
Photograph - I need only your
Photograph - I'm outta love
Photograph - I'm outta love
Photograph - you're the only one
Photograph - I wanna touch

The Blister exists - Slipknot (Live)

Just got the new album

 

[ChrisH36]

Although a good song, I don't really like the group that plays this version

Bowling for Soup - 1985​

Woohoohoo
Woohoohoo

Debbie just hit the wall
she never had it all
one Prozac a day
husbands a CPA
her dreams went out the door
when she turned twenty four
only been with one man
what happen to her plan?

She was gonna be an actress
she was gonna be a star
she was gonna shake her ass
on the hood of white snake’s car
her yellow SUV is now the enemy
looks at her average life
and nothing has been alright since

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
way before Nirvana
there was U2 and Blondie
and music still on MTV
her two kids in high school
they tell her that she’s uncool
cuz she's still preoccupied
with 19, 19, 1985

Woohoohoo
(1985)
Woohoohoo

She’s seen all the classics
she knows every line
Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink
even Saint Elmo’s Fire
she rocked out to wham
not a big Limp Bizkit fan
thought she’d get a hand
on a member of Duran Duran

Where’s the mini-skirt made of snake skin
and who’s the other guy that's singing in Van Halen
when did reality become T.V.
what ever happen to sitcoms, game shows
(on the radio was)

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
way before Nirvana
there was U2 and Blondie
and music still on MTV
her two kids in high school
they tell her that she’s uncool
cuz she's still preoccupied
with 19, 19, 1985

Woohoohoo

She hates time make it stop
when did Motley Crue become classic rock?
And when did Ozzy become an actor?
Please make this stop
Stop!
And bring back

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
way before Nirvana
there was U2 and Blondie
and music still on MTV
her two kids in high school
they tell her that she’s uncool
cuz she's still preoccupied
with 1985

Woohoohoo

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
way before Nirvana
there was U2 and Blondie
and music still on MTV (woohoohoo)
her two kids in high school

Suzanne Vega & Dna - Tom's Diner

I am sitting
In the morning
At the diner
On the corner

I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To pour the coffee

And he fills it
Only halfway
And before
I even argue

He is looking
Out the window
At somebody
Coming in

"It is always
Nice to see you"
Says the man
Behind the counter

To the woman
Who has come in
She is shaking
Her umbrella

And I look
The other way
As they are kissing
Their hellos

I'm pretending
Not to see them
Instead
I pour the milk

I open
Up the paper
There's a story
Of an actor

Who had died
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of

And I'm turning
To the horoscope
And looking
For the funnies

When I'm feeling
Someone watching me
And so
I raise my head

There's a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?

No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection

And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's hitching
Up her skirt

And while she's
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Is getting wet

Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm listening

To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...

And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...

I finish up my coffee
It's time to catch the train
​

Thunderstone - Spread my Wings​

I'm standing in the shadows, all alone
Memories running through my heart and soul
This is the time when I should leave or stay
The future and the past slips away
Every night I wake up and hear your voice
I reach out for you but you're not there
I close my eyes and I see you before me
Now I know it's time for me to leave

Spread my wings and fly
Fly so high
Above all I used to be
Now I'm alone but I'm free
Spread my wings and fly
Over mountains so high
And the wind it's carrying me
Where I want to be

It's hard to find a reason, it's hard to understand
Why you've been pulled away far to neverland
Still I hear your name calling my name
And I realize my life will never be the same

Spread my wings and fly
Fly so high
Above all I used to be
Now I'm alone but I'm free
Spread my wings and fly
Over mountains so high
And the wind it's carrying me
Where I want to be
​

 

[Pains Requiem]

Left With Alibis and Lying Eyes
by Emery

Watching someone stop breathing.
Feel their, arms and palms releasing.
The color, the smell of the skin,
All of this with your fingerprints.

And there isn't a thing that we can do.

Drive drive drive drive,
I don't want to get caught.
We'll say, we'll say we're innocent.
And there is enough to prove we're not.
They will believe anything.
I'm packing all my clothes and never going to go home again.
There isn't one thing we forgot.
You'll see, we'll get, away with this.

My jeans, your shoes, we'll throw away everything we used.
But there's still your worried mouth
To match your worried eyes.
The only two things left to find.

Drive drive drive drive,
I don't want to get caught.
We'll say, we'll say, we're innocent.
And there is enough to prove we're not.
They will believe anything.
I'm packing all my clothes and never going to go home again.
There isn't one thing we forgot.
You'll see, we'll get, away with this.

There's no compromise.
(Murderer)
So remember this.
(with your teenage eyes)
Your hands are lies.
(resist)
It's too late for if's.
(confession)

We'll go home and close the door,
(oh. the weight is so much)
then pull the sheets up to our heads and sleep.
(my heart is hollow. With this foolish hing I've done)

And there isn't a thing that they can do.

Drive drive drive drive,
I don't want to get caught.
We'll say, we'll say, we're innocent.
And there is enough to prove we're not.
They will believe anything.
I'm packing all my clothes and never going to go home again.
There isn't one thing we forgot.
You'll see, we'll get, away with this.

Hellwolf, you spam this thread too much. :heart

Frank Klepacki - Face the Enemy.

This music is SO brooding for a war theme. It's actually kind of scary.

 

[ChrisH36]

Indeed it is, indded it is. But I am always on topic , so its not necessarily spam!

My mom drives me to school, this was playing:

Sarah Mclachlan - Into the Fire​

Mother teach me to walk again
Milk and honey so intoxicating

CHORUS
And into the fire
I'm reunited
Into the fire
I am the spark
Into the fire
I yearn for comfort

Open the doors that lead on in to Eden
Don't want no cheap disguise
I follow the signs marked back to the beginning
No more compromise

CHORUS

Free the water that carries me to the sea
You I see as my security

CHORUS

I will stare into the sun until its light doesn't blind me
I will walk into the fire until its heat doesn't burn me
And I will feed the fire

CHORUS​

Soil - Understanding Me​

Tie me down
And try to take samples for examples
You could never see
Walk on me
But watch where you're stomping
Walk with caution
You couldn't comprehend

Step inside and see
Justify
You could never see my life is
You could never be my life is
You will never try my life is
Understanding me
Understanding me

What do you know about me
Am I alive
Can I see
What's happening around me
Put me down
Without even speaking
Forever thinking
You couldn't understand

Step inside and see
Compromise

You could never see my life is
You could never be my life is
You will never try my life is
Understanding me
Understanding me

Step inside and see
Crucify
​

 

[Pains Requiem]

There for You
by Flyleaf

Sometimes I'm a selfish fake.
You're always a true friend.
I don't deserve you cause I'm not there for you.
Please forgive me again...

I want to be there for you...
Someone you can come to...
It runs deeper than my bones...
I want to be there for you.

Swirling shades of blue
slow dancing in your sky,
The sun kisses the earth
and I hush my urge to cry.

I want to be there for you...
Someone you can come to...
It runs deeper than my bones...
I want to be there for you.
Cause I hear the whispered words
in your masterpiece, beautiful...
You speak the unspeakable through...
I love you too.

I want to be there for you
And be someone you can come to
The love runs deeper than my bones
And I want to be there for you.

Modest Mouse - Polar Opposites

Such a depressing song about trying to "get by". I love this album "The Lonesome Crowded West" from Modest Mouse. This song is a must listen. They're indie rock and their sound is quite shall I say unique.
