Some of the best Lyrics ever !!!

"We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears."
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

"Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on."
Led Zeppelin - "Stairway to Heaven"

Any chimp can play human for a day.
Use his opposable thumbs to iron his uniform
and run for office on election day
fancy himself a real decision maker
and deploy more troops than salt shakers

But it's a jungle when war is made
and you'll panic and throw your own shit at the enemy
The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity
Look, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing
A smoking gun holding ape

Rilo Kiley

Great stuff.

One, two, three, four - The Ramones

I know i'm gonna lose,
But gamblin its for folls,
But thats the way i like it baby
i don't wanna live forever
Motorhead - Ace of Spades

Just great!!!

Congratulations!

And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace? There's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East. Instead of war on poverty,
they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me.
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do.
But now I'm back with the facts givin' 'em back to you. Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp smack you up.

Changes Tupac

It's deep how you can be so shallow
And I'm afraid cause I have no fear
And I didn't believe in magic
Until I watched you disappear

--Who cares? by Gnarls Barkley

'And I forget
Just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess
It makes me smile,
I found it hard
Its hard to find
Ohwell, whatever, nevermind

best lyrics ever
(Buddy Jewel - Help pour out the rain)

The moment was custom-made to order:
I was ridin' with my daughter on our way back from Monroe.
An' like children do, she started playin' twenty questions,
But I never could've guessed one would touch me to my soul.

She said: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that God could use another Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"

Well, I won't lie: I pulled that car right over,
An' I sat there on the shoulder tryin' to dry my misty eyes.
An' I whispered: "Lord, I wanna thank you for my children.
"'Cause your innocence that fills them often takes me by surprise."

Like: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that God could use another Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"

Well, I thought about it later on,
An' a smile came to my face.
An' when I tucked her in to bed,
I got down on my knees an' prayed.

Lord, when I get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"I don't wanna come to visit 'cause I'm comin' home to stay?
"An' I can't wait to see my family and meet Jesus face to face.
"An' do you think, Lord, you could use just one more Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"

I am not sure if this has been changed or not but the Pearl Jam -- Black lyrics are incorrect.

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine.

"I cant do the talk like they talk on tv
And I cant do a love song like the way its meant to be
I cant do everything but Id do anything for you
I cant do anything except be in love with you" > Dire Straits- Romeo and Juliet.

this is just one fantastiv lyric in this song. It is such a beautiful song.. every lyric is amazing!

seems like everyone's an actor
or they're an actor's best friend
I wonder what was wrong to begin with
that they should all have to pretend
we lost sight of everything
when we have to keep checking our backs
I think we should all just smile
come clean
and relax

I don't actually listen to the lyrics much in songs - when I hear singing I hear melody and tune, rather than grammar and semantics.However, there are some songs where the words - or, at least the delivery of those words - really grips me.One is Talk Talk's "I believe in you" - something about the delivery of the first verse is emotionally haunting.

Bury me softly in this womb I give this part of me for you Sand rains down and here I sit Holding rare flowers
In a tomb...in bloom Down in a hole and I dont know if I can be saved See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You dont understand who they Thought I was supposed to be Look at me now a man Who wont let himself be
Down in a hole, feelin so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Id like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied.....
Alice In Chains-Down In A Hole

Love this string -- here's on of mine:

Don’t want your aid
But the fist I’ve made
For years, can’t hold or feel
No I’m not all me
So please excuse me
While I tend to how I feel
-James Hetfield

I try to post one a day on my blog - www.thedailylyric.com

A crude art, a bovver boot ballet - equally elegant and ugly
I was as thrilled as I was appalled, courting him in fisticuffing waltz.
Now I'm not saying the lads always deserve a braying.
And I'm not saying the girls are worth the fines I'm paying.

We're just brutes bored in our bovver boots.
We're just brutes clowning 'round in cahoots.
We're just brutes looking for shops to loot.
We're just brutes hoping to have a hoot

Hooting, hooting and howling

-Hooting and Howling by Wild Beasts

How the prayer rubs the rosary.
How the make up make her face pretty.
Oh how we have an underbelly,
Bitten by brutality.
How there’s guts fried up.
How lothario leers at slut.
Oh how we have an underbelly,
Bitten by brutality.

And how
In our first and last years
We are the most needy, least greedy, most grateful, least hateful.
And how we die as deeply doe-eyed as we start.

-Underbelly, also by the genius Wild Beasts. I could keep going if you like...

Time came a-creepin'
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes o-o-on
Time only can lead you on
Still it's such a beautiful night
-Coldplay - Life In Technicolor II

So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.
-Collective Soul - The World I Know

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
-Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner

Sheets of empty canvas
Untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me
As her body once did
-Pearl Jam - Black

You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
-Damien Rice - Volcano

catch a train on a silver afternoon
a thousand miles and I'm gettin' there too soon
-Mazzy Star - I've Been Let Down

And they call as they beckon you on
They said start as you mean to go on
-Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head

"I may look happy.
But honestly dear.
The only way I really smile,
Is if you cut me ear to ear."
Chelsea smile - bring me the horizon <3
