Post a random song lyric

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car.

It's a bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will 'cause
I sure could use a vacation from this

Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit...

One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

Learn to swim.
Learn to swim.
Learn to swim.

Mom is going to fix it all soon,
Mom is coming round to put it back
The way it oughtta be...

Learn to swim.

Fuck L Ron Hubbard and
Fuck all his clones.
Fuck all these gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.

Learn to swim.

Fuck retro anything.
Fuck your tattoos.
Fuck all you junkies and
Fuck your short memory.

Learn to swim.

Fuck smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas.
Fuck these dysfunctional,
Insecure actresses.

Learn to swim.

Cuz I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.

Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.

I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.

I wanna see it all come down.
Suck it down.
Flush it down.
 
For a price I'd do anything
Except pull the trigger
For that I need a pretty good cause
Then I heard of Dr. X
The man with the cure
Just watch the television
You'll see there's something going on
Got no love for politicians
Or that crazy scene in D.C.
It's just a power mad town
But the time is ripe for changes
There's a growing feeling
That taking a chance on a new kind of vision is due
I used to trust the media
To tell me the truth, tell us the truth
But now I've seen the payoffs
Everywhere I look
Who do you trust when everyone's a crook?
CHORUS
Revelution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gota push, gotta push it on through
I'm tired of all this bullshit
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/q/queensryche-lyrics/revolution-calling-lyrics.html ]
They keep selling me on TV
About thte communist plan
And all the shady preachers
Begging for my cash
Swiss bank accounts while giving their
Secretaries the slam
They're all in Penthouse now
Or Playboy Magazine
Million dollar stories to tell
I guess Warhol wasn't wrong
Fame fifteen minutes long
Everyon'es using everybody, making the sale
I used to think
That only America's way, way was right
But now the holy dollar rules everybody's lives
Gotta make a million doesn't matter who dies
CHORUS
I used to trust the media
To tell me the truth, tell us the truth
But now I've seen the payoffs
Everywhere I look
Who do you trust when everyone's a crook
 

Facetious

Moderated
Early in the morning
Just as the sun was rising
came without a warning
the sound of the uprising

Gunfire in the streets
Women and children crying
The crush of marching feet
Men and young boys dying

Why can’t we live in peace

We live in the troubled times
The shadow of annihilation
Troubles every mind
And chills the heart of every nation

Darkness fills the night
She tries to steal your soul away
Killing in the sunlight
She spreads the shadow through the day

Yea yea yea yea
Why can’t we live in peace
Why can we have no release

You and I we don’t know why
So many people cry
You and I we don’t know understand
The ways of mine

Why can’t we live in peace
Why can we have no release
 

Facetious

Moderated
Sitting in a park in Paris France
Reading the news and it sure looks bad
They won't give peace a chance
That was ..just ...a ...dream some of us had
Still a lot of lands to see
But I wouldn't want to stay here
It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here
Oh but California

California I'm coming home
I'm going to see the folks I dig
I'll even kiss a Sunset pig
California I'm coming home

I met a redneck on a Grecian isle
Who did the goat dance very well
He gave me back my smile
But he kept my camera to sell
Oh the rogue the red red rogue
He cooked good omelettes and stews
And I might have stayed on with him there
But my heart cried out for you California

Oh California I'm coming home
Oh make me feel good rock 'n' roll band
I'm your biggest fan
California I'm coming home

Oh it gets so lonely
When you're walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
Just gives you the blues
Just gives you the blues
So I bought me a ticket
I caught a plane to Spain
Went to a party down a red dirt road
There were lots of pretty people there
Reading Rolling Stone reading Vogue
They said "How long can you hang around?"
I said a week maybe two
Just until my skin turns brown
Then I'm going home to California

California I'm coming home
Oh will you take me as I am
Strung out on another man
California I'm coming home

Oh it gets so lonely
When you're walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
More about the war
And the bloody changes
Oh will you take me as I am?
Will you take me as I am?
Will you?[/QUOTE]
 

Ace Bandage

The one and only.
All I see are dark grey clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you ask "Is something wrong?"
I think "You're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now."
No, we can't talk about it now.

So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile and it was cheap
And you are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, you are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me

I remember it was plain as day
although it happened in the dark of the night.
I was strolling through the streets of Paris
and it was cold it was starting to rain.
And then I heard a piercing scream
and I rushed to the scene of the crime
what I found were the butchered remains
of two girls layin' side by side.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
flee before the killers go free

There's some people coming down the street
at last someone heard my call
I can't understand why they're pointing at me
I never done nothing at all.
But I got some blood on my hands
and everybody's shouting at me
I can't speak French so I couldn't explain
and like a fool I started running away.

Murder in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murder in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free.

And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law.
All of France is looking for me.
and I've gotta find my way across the border for sure
down the south to Italy.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
runnin' from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.

Well I made it to the border with luck
But I can't remove the scene from my mind
Anytime somebody stares at me, well
I just start running blind
Well I'm moving through the shadows at night
Away from the staring eyes
Any day they'll be looking for me
'Cause I know I show the signs of...

Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the arms of the law

Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free

It took so long and I'm getting so tired
I'm running out of places to hide
Should I return to the scene of the crime
Where the two young victims died
If I could go to somebody for help
To get me out of trouble for sure
But I know that inside my mind
Well my doctor said I've done it before.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
they're never gonna find me
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.
 
White man came across the sea
He brought us pain and misery
He killed our tribes killed our creed
He took our game for his own need

We fought him hard we fought him well
Out on the plains we gave him hell
But many came too much for Cree
Oh will we ever be set free?

Riding through dust clouds and barren wastes
Galloping hard on the plains
Chasing the redskins back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom the stab in the back
Women and children are cowards attack

Run to the hills, run for your lives
Run to the hills, run for your lives

Soldier blue in the barren wastes
Hunting and killing their game
Raping the women and wasting the men
The only good Indians are tame
Selling them whiskey and taking their gold
Enslaving the young and destroying the old

Run to the hills, run for your lives
 
Woo hoo, I'm back!

"You seemed to be like a real good idea,
At the time, at the time.
You lifted me up to some higher ground,
Then you knocked me down on the ground.
But I rue that day like I don't know how.

You picked me up right out of the tide,
My eyes weren't open wide.
I was blind,
But I see much better, much better now.

Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves,
I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve.
Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out,
Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how.
All fifty rounds..."

Far beyond the sea and distant lands
Came men with thirty ships
Had wanted to reach the Neva by night
But the weather was not on their side

And as the wind grew stronger and stronger
The rain ran down our cheeks
The bow was turned towards Gardar
The sail flew up again

Holmgard and beyond
That's where the winds will us guide
For fame and for gold
Set sail for those lands unknown
 
generic blues

I woke up this mornin',
Then I went back to bed.
Said I woke up this mornin',
Then I went right back to bed.
Got a funny kinda feelin',
Like I got broken glass in my underwear,
And a herd of wild pigs is tryin' to chew off my head.
- You know what I'm sayin'?

Well, I ain't got no money,
I'm just walkin' down the road.
Said I ain't got no money, honey,
So I'm just walkin' down this lonely old road.
Well, I wish I could get me some money,
But I forgot my automated teller code.

I was born in a paper sack, in the bottom of a sewer.
I had to eat dirt clods for breakfast, my family was so poor,
My daddy was a waitress, my mama sold bathroom tile.
My brothers and sisters all hated me,'cause I was an only child.

I got the blues so bad.
Kinda wish I was dead.
Maybe I'll blow my brains out, mama.
Or maybe I'll, yeah, maybe I'll just go bowlin' instead.

I'm just a no-good, scum-sucking, nose-picking, boot-licking,
snivelling, grovelling worthless hunk of slime.
Nothin' but a low-down, beer-bellied, bone-headed, pigeon-toed,
turkey-necked, weasel-faced worthless hunk of slime.
I guess I've got a pretty low self-image,
maybe it's a chemical imbalance or something.
I should probably go and see a doctor about it when I've got the time.

Guitar
(Aw, make it talk, son, make it talk...)

(...Okay, now make it shut up)


Plagues and famine and pestilence always seem to get me down.
I always feel so miserable whenever I'm around.
I wish somebody would come along, stick a pitchfork through my brain.
I'd flush myself right down the toilet, but I'd just clog up the drain.

I got the blues so bad,
Kinda wish I was dead.
Maybe I'll blow my brains out, mama,

Or maybe I'll go bowling.

Or I just might go bowling.

Maybe I'll just rent some shoes and go bowling.

Maybe I'll join a league, enter a tournament,
put on a stupid-lookin' shirt and go bowling...
Instead.
 
i am the coming of a new age
past your shit by far
i was a puzzle in your sick life,
but will never be a piece anymore.
because i worked through your fucking bullshit
and i worked through your fucking lies
now i'm working on the edge
with a thousand times the stress,
so i can damn you down to size.

i worked in your fucking warehouse
i worked in your fucking dream
i worked on the edge of the product community
and found that nothing's what it seemed

i fucking hate you

devy worked in the corner of the piss yard
bored and plagued by pain,
devy got a taste of the corporate community,
and never went back again.

i worked for you fucking bastards
i worked for your fucking lies
i went and pissed away too may fucking opportunities
to try and make you fuckers feel right
and i fucking hate you...

i am the coming of a new age
stained we still stand tall
i am the coming of a new age
and i will never fall
i bear the questions of a new time
seen but never heard
i've seen the comings of a new time, get ready...
cuz here it comes.

pushing your incompetance,
and racial views aside
and never now,
until death again, is there anywhere to... hide

it starts here my friends,
my brothers and sisters,
the courage to show what is brave, and not to be weakened
to stand it through, by any length
to look into the eyes,
and have the strength of men who say "fuck you"
i won't do what you tell me...fuck you
i don't care who you are...fuck you
i'll never stop believing...fuck you
and i'll never be the one who takes the heat in the name

of the remorse that isn't pushed into a hole
waiting now, and packing down
into the open spaces we must go and not be frightened
as children we came,
as children we go,
so never look behind you, never look behind...fuck you
it isn't a decision...fuck you
it's a sign of greater things...fuck you
and a loss will never matter...fuck you
 
"(Turn me up)
I went into a bar just the other night.
Boy I got into one hell of a fight
I think I mighta broke my jaw
The very next morning
Somebody stole my car
My wife left home about a week ago
She stole the kids and she took all my dough.
She pee’d on the carpet and she shot my horse
Now I think I’ve gone from better to bad to worse..."
 
"...Only a woman
Is allowed to touch me there
All I ask is that you're a woman..

I like rain, I like ham, I like you
You're around, you're right here, so you'll do
I'm gonna tell you how much I love your mind
But it simply isn't true

Only a woman
Can brighten up my day
Only a woman
Can touch me the right way, yeah
Only a woman
Is allowed to do what you're doin' right now
All I ask is that you're a woman..."

Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.:sing:

tuck me into where it's freezing, tuck me into bed with snakes. tuck me in with the tarantulas, i wanna let 'em in my mouth and down my throat to lay their eggs. tuck me into where there's bleeding, where it spills out of the walls onto the floor. tuck me into where your best friend's apologies amount to shit, they always did, for ever more. i pour out onto the floor like liquid white from fallen glass, nothing to cry over. my skin went sour long ago. it knew it had nowhere else to go. tuck me into where I'm falling, where i can feel the heat rise underneath my wings. and all the fallen angels in hell will tuck me away from you. take me away from everything. tuck me into where there's dying, tuck me in with flames and tuck me in with flies. maybe then you will appreciate your only friend with maggots in her eyes, or as ashes in the sky. i pour out onto the floor like liquid white from fallen glass, nothing to cry over. my skin went sour long ago. it knew it had no place left to go. i pour out onto the floor like liquid white from fallen glass, nothing to cry over. my skin went sour long ago. it knew it had no place left to go.

Madness and the fear
