Your Best Song (with lyrics)

[Elwood70]

Guess.....

We busted out of class had to get away from those fools
We learned more from a three minute record than we ever learned in school
Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound
I can feel my heart begin to pound
You say you're tired and you just want to close your eyes and follow your dreams down


We made a promise we swore we'd always remember
No retreat no surrender
Like soldiers in the winter's night with a vow to defend
No retreat no surrender

Now young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold
We swore blood brothers against the wind
I'm ready to grow young again
And hear your sister's voice calling us home across the open yards
Well maybe we could cut someplace of our own
With these drums and these guitars


Blood brothers in the stormy night with a vow to defend
No retreat no surrender

Now on the street tonight the lights grow dim
The walls of my room are closing in
There's a war outside still raging
you say it ain't ours anymore to win
I want to sleep beneath peaceful skies in my lover's bed
with a wide open country in my eyes
and these romantic dreams in my head

 

[blob]

::i see a blank notebook page;
and it's my life and there is;
nothing I can think to write;
i'm not sensing a thing::

"Whiskey Bent And Hell Bound"


I've got a good woman at home who thinks I do no wrong
But sometimes, Lord she just ain't always around
And you know that's when I fall;
I can't help myself at all
And I get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me some songs about a ramblin' man,put a cold one in my hand
Cause you know I love to hear those guitar sounds
Don't you play I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry 'cause I'll get all balled up inside....
And I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound

Sure enough about closing time; 'bout stoned out of my mind
And I end up with some honky tonk special I found
Just as sure as the morning sun comes thinking of my sweet girl at home
And I need to get whiskey bent and hell bound
Play me some songs about a ramblin' man;put old Jim Beam in my hand
Cause you know I still love to get drunk and hear country sounds
But don't you play Your Cheatin' Heart 'cause that'll tear me all apart
and I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound
Yeah old Hank's songs always make me feel low down

Alicia Keys - A Woman's Worth

You could buy me diamonds
You could buy me pearls
Take me on a cruise around the world
Baby you know I'm worth it
Dinner lit by candles
Run my bubble bath
Make love tenderly to last, to last
Baby you know I'm worth it

Wanna please, wanna keep, wanna treat your woman right
Not just told, better show that she knows she is worth your time
You will lose if you choose to refuse to put her first
She will if she can find a man who knows her worth

Mmmhh...
'Cause a real man knows a real woman when he sees her (when he sees her)
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her (please her)
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first (first)
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth (a woman's worth)

Mmmmhmmmm...

Hold up
'Cause if you treat me fairly I'll give you all my goods
Treat you like a real woman should
Baby I know you're worth it
If you never play me promise not to bluff
I'll hold you down when shit gets rough
'Cause baby I know you're worth it

She walks the mile, makes you smile, all the while being true
Don't take for granted the passions that she has for you
You will lose if you choose to refuse to put her first
She will if she can find a man who knows her worth

Oooh...
'Cause a real man knows a real woman when he sees her (when he sees her)
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her (please me)
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first (first, baby)
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth

No need to read between the lines, spelled out for you
Just hear this song cause you can't go wrong with your values
A woman, woman, woman, woman's worth

Yeah,
'Cause a real man knows a real woman when he sees her (when he sees her)
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her (please me)
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first (first, baby)
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth (a woman's worth)

'Cause a real man knows a real woman when he sees her (nothing like a woman's worth)
And a real woman knows a real man ain't afraid to please her
And a real woman knows a real man always comes first (comes first)
And a real man just can't deny a woman's worth (woman's worth)

Mmmmhmmmm...

Metallica - Disposable Heroes

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be
A servant 'til I fall

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman

Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman

Why, am I dying?
Kill, have no fear
Lie, live off lying
Hell, hell is here

I was born for dying

Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
Had no chance to see myself, molded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
Left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman

Back to the front

Depeche Mode , Its No Good - Im going to take my time I have all the time in the world to make You Mine. It is written in the stars above the gods decree. you'll be right here by my side right next to me you can run but you cannot hide. ( chorus - Dont say you want me, dont say you need me, dont say you love me, its understood. Dont say you are happy, out there without me, I know you cant be, cause its no good ). I'll be fine I'll be waiting patiently till you see the signs and come running to my open arms. When will you realize do we have to wait till our worlds collide. Open up your eyes you cant turn back the tide. ( chorus ). I'm going to take my time I have all the time in the world. To make You Mine it is written in the stars above.

Favorite Music Lyrics

Your favorite lyrics from any song with artist name and song title if you know em:

"But now you question who I am.
Who I am inside
Now there's nothing left to hide.
So here it goes
This is my letter
Hope you're alright. It's been rough for me
thinking all night. About the places I'd be
If I maybe, just did a little bit more you might've
Let me, become a man for sure
And if I might, express one concern it seems an
issue. All day at every turn
What's the next step, the latest hole in my life
What's next for me to learn"
Flaw, My Letter​

awsome band, great music! Their songs have a meaning if you listen...
this and the rest of this song spoke to me perfect about the way I felt shortly after my situation with my ex-fiance and why she is now my ex...still get a chill when I hear it...weird...

Feels Like Rain / Buddy Guy (blues)


Down here the river, meets the sea
And in the sticky heat I feel ya' open up to me
Love comes out of nowhere baby, just like a hurricane
And it feels like rain
And it feels like rain
Lying here, underneath the stars right next to you
And I'm wondering who you are and
How do you do?
How do you do, baby?
The clouds roll in across the moon
And the wind howls out your name
And it feels like rain
And it feels like rain
We never going to make that bridge tonight baby
Across lake Ponchartrain
And it feels like rain
And it feels like rain
So batten down the hatch baby
And leave your heart up your sleeve
It looks like we're in for stormy weather,
That ain't no cause for us to leave
Just lay here, in my arms
Let it wash away the pain
And it feels like rain
And it feels like rain

One of my faves,

Blood On The Rooftops - Genesis


Dark and grey, an English film, the Wednesday Play
We always watch the Queen on Christmas Day
Won't you stay?

Though your eyes see shipwrecked sailors you're still dry
The outlook's fine though Wales might have some rain
Saved again.

Let's skip the news boy (I'll make some tea)
The Arabs and the Jews boy (too much for me)
They get me confused boy (puts me off to sleep)
And the thing I hate - Oh Lord!
Is staying up late, to watch some debate, on some nation's fate.

Hypnotised by Batman, Tarzan, still surprised!
You've won the West in time to be our guest
Name your prize!

Drop of wine, a glass of beer dear what's the time?
The grime on the Tyne is mine all mine all mine
Five past nine.

Blood on the rooftops - Venice in the Spring
Streets of San Francisco - a word from Peking
The trouble was started - by a young Errol Flynn
Better in my day - Oh Lord!
For when we got bored, we'd have a world war, happy but poor

So let's skip the news boy (I'll go make that tea)
Blood on the rooftops (too much for me)
When old Mother Goose stops - they're out for 23
Then the rain at Lords stopped play
Seems Helen of Troy has found a new face again.

Good Luck Charm - Jagged Edge

She's my light
My shining star
She's so dear to me yes she is yes she is
My rabbits foot, my lucky charm
Yes she is yes she is
Whoa whoa whoa oooh

Everytime that something good happens in my life-
You're always there for me, looking good by my side-
Picture you now, pullin up your panty hose
And you always got that sexy underwear on
So much good has come my way
Since she came in my life
I'll never push you away or brush you off to the side
See girl I, I I....
See my luck has changed for the better.

See I got so much love for you in these arms-
Don't you know that you're my good luck charm.
Where you are forever girl ain't no harm
Ain't nobody else can borrow it, I won't allow it

See I got so much love for you in these arms
Don't you know that you're my good luck charm.
Lovin you forever girl and never do I
Wanna go without, my good luck charm

Like a rabbits foot on keys, or some lucky dice
All I want or need, I ain't gotta ask twice
Where would I be? what would I do
Without you looking out for me?
Probably be, probably be in these streets.

Without you in my life,
My future ain't the same, no.
And I'm not wanting the blame
Baby I, know I been around, I'm
Tired of messing around, I
Got so much love.

See I got so much love for you in these arms-
Don't you know that you're my good luck charm.
Where you are forever girl ain't no harm
Ain't nobody else can borrow it, I won't allow it

See I got so much love for you in these arms
Don't you know that you're my good luck charm.
Lovin you forever girl and never do I
Wanna go without, my good luck charm

And I'd throw away this ice, and
Give up my J.E. pieces-
Just to get a piece of (your love forever)
And I knew you were a keeper
So babygirl I'm keepin you.
Can't think about letting you go no no
It seems like every situation I been facing,
You know what to do to save me
So I know you bring me love.-
So I'm standing strong like a soldier-
I know how to hold you-
I'm saying this to let you know
I got so. ooh.

Favorite song lyric

AC/DC : Have A Drink On Me

"Whiskey, gin and brandy. With a glass I'm pretty handy.I'm trying to walk a straight line.On sour mash and cheap wine. So join me for a drink boys.We're gonna make a big noise. So don't worry about tomorrow
Take it today.Forget about the cheque. We'll get hell to pay"

Re: Favorite song lyric

I like this one:

This is a song for the ladies
But fellas listen closely
You don't always have to fuck her hard
In fact sometimes that's not right to do
Sometimes you've got to make some love
And fuckin give her some smoochies too
Sometimes ya got to squeeze
Sometimes you've got to say please
Sometime you've got to say hey
I'm gonna Fuck you softly
I'm gonna screw you gently
I'm gonna hump you sweetly
I'm gonna ball you discreetly
And then you say hey I bought you flowers
And then you say wait a minute sally
I think I got somethin in my teeth
Could you get it out for me
That's fuckin teamwork
Whats your favorite posish?
That's cool with me
Its not my favorite
But I'll do it for you
Whats your favorite dish?
Im not gonna cook it
But ill order it from Zanzibar
And then I'm gonna love you completely
And then I'll fuckin fuck you discreetly
And then I'll fucking bone you completely
But then I'm gonna fuck you hard
Hard

 

[Violator79]

HIM- Wicked Game (best version)

The world was on fire, no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I'd never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you
And I'd never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is only gonna break your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is only gonna break your heart
..with you

What a wicked game to play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing you do
To make me dream of you

No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is only gonna break your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
this world is only gonna break your heart
..with you

The world was on fire, no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
No and I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I'll never dream that I lose somebody like you, no

Now I wanna fall in love
This world is only gonna break your heart
Now I wanna fall in lust
This world is only gonna break your heart
..with you

Nobody loves no one


Also here's a link to the video, one of the best I've ever seen. I don't know who the women are but the one half way through is smoking hot!!!!

What have they done to "Wicked Game"?

:eek:

The original was so sublime....but this.....

Moving on...Phil Lynott - Yellow Pearl (aka the ToTP theme)

"we all must beware of the yellow pearl"

The yellow pearl control, attack, attack, attack, attack
Yellow pearl
It is foolish to venture into strange enchanted places
If they aren't the places you want to be

Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack

We will arise
We will control
We will command
We will patrol

It is foolish under the guise of love and liberty
That we should capitalize and rob and fell
The poor for the socialistic tree

We will arise
We will control
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
That's what you lack

We shall arise
They will arise
We shall control
They will control
We shall command
They will command
We shall patrol
They will patrol

We must fight back
We will arise
They will arise
We will control

We are now living in a situation
Where that self same situation depends on the yellow pearl
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
We will arise
They will arise
We will control
They will control
We will command
They shall command
We will patrol
They will patrol
Arise
Yellow pearl's upon us now
We must fight back

We will arise
They will arise
We will control
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack

Is what we lack
Is what we lack
Don't trust in liberty
To save your soul
It is genocide to let liberty lose control
Control
We must decide
Control
We the yellow pearl we will control

What have they done to "Wicked Game"?

:eek:

The original was so sublime....but this.....

Omega, they made that song the way it was meant to be made!!! Like Metallica with Turn the Page, they gave a bland song life. Now I like Chris Isaak's version, but HIM's is so much better. Just Valo's voice alone is awesome!

HIM's is definitely louder...
But no way was Isaak's version "bland" - his was moody, effortless and subtle, imo (and there's no Helena Christensen in the video..... )

Oh well, what's done is done. "Wicked Game" has joined the list of unnecessary remakes...there's two ways of looking at this:

1. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
2. One man's terrorist, etc....

:2 cents:
