Write the first song lyric that comes into your head

[Wolfpack]

I guess your Prince Charming wasn't after all.
'Cause he sure seemed different right after the ball.
I guess more than horses are turning into rats.
And by the way he's walking I can guess where your slipper's at.

-Garth Brooks, "It's Midnight, Cinderella"

"Welcome to where time stands still,
No one leaves, and No one will."

Welcome Home(Sanitarium) - Metallica

[Mr. Nice Gaius]

Yo u were under the impression
That when you were walking forward
That you'd end up further onward
But things ain't quite that simple.

- The Who. Some song from Quadrophenia. Sounds great with Roger Daltrey bellowing it out.

SOME song?!? SOME SONG?!?!?

That's a the "Punk anna the Godfather", eh?

Holy crappa, where's a the love anna respect, no?

No, Dino! That's "I've Had Enough" off of Quadrophenia. And you call yourself a Mod?!

Here you go:

You tried to speak between lines of oration
You could only repeat what we told you.
Your axe belongs to a dying nation
They don't know that we own you.
You're watching movies, trying to find the feelers
You only see what we show you.
We're the slaves of the phony leaders
Breathe the air we have blown you.

- "The Punk Meets The Godfather" - Quadrophenia

[Mr. Nice Gaius]

The architects are choking out another hollow tooth
And the rooms have all been rented from the gutter to the roof
In the heart of a city desire finds its fuel
You go out looking for trouble, sooner or later and the trouble finds you

Here the men walk like pigeons
And the women all talk loud
Skin's a coin of the kingdom
Everybody's lonesome
The wild boys say
"I'm on to you"

So to hell with the mill sallow chorus
Lift you body out of exile
Come bend to the outlaw arrow
Come let me under you veil
They might say love is only trouble
We're both too drunk to steer it
We may never be angels
But we're lousy with the spirit

Here the men walk like pigeons
And the women all talk loud
Skin's a coin of the kingdom
Everybody's lonesome
The diamond girls say
"I'm on to you"

And the streets say
"I'm on to you"
And the night say
"I'm on to you"
And the lovers say
"I'm on to you"

In the fire of my youth
We were racing with the sun
Kissing in the churchyard
I knew a righteous woman.

Oh - I'm on to you

Constantines - "On To You"

Thank you, MNG. I just dug up my old copy of the album and was about to correct Dino myself, but you handled it very well.

It's weird: I remember my old vinyl copy of the album listed the title as "The Punk Meets The Godfather", but my CD calls it "The Punk And The Godfather".

WTF??

"I can't sleep and I lay and I think
The night is hot and black as ink
Oh, God, I need a drink
Of cool, cool rain."

[AtomicHyperbole]

Baby when I saw you turning at the end of the street
I knew a time was gone and it took me like ages
Just to understand that I was afraid to be a simple guy
I tried my best to smile but deep inside my heart
I felt it was shouting like a crowd dancing
I guess I couldn't live without the things that made my life what it is
Can't you hear it calling oh yeah
Everybody's dancin' oh yeah
Tonight everything is over
I feel too young
I can't lie on my bed without thinking I was wrong
But when this feeling calls this world becomes another
Nighttime won't hold me in your arms again
I got a very good friend who says he can't believe the love I give
Is not enough to end your fears
I guess I couldn't live without the things that made my life what it is
Can't you hear it calling oh yeah
Everybody's shakin' oh yeah
Tonight everything is over
I feel too young
Oh rainfalls and hard times coming they won't leave me tonight
I wish I knew what I was doing
Just do let this spirit survive
Can't you hear me calling oh yeah
I guess I couldn't live without the things that made my life what it is
Can't you hear me calling oh yeah
Everybody's dancing oh yeah
Tonight everything is over
I feel too young

[Fried Gold]

There's not enough hours in the day
To say all that I wanted to say.
There's not enough days in the week
And weeks go by quicker than drunks knock back liquor.
There's not enough weeks in the month
To do all that needs to be done.
There's not enough months in the year
And years disappear like the bubbles in my beer

"After The Rain"

[Doc Holliday]

Why does it always rain on me, was it because I lied when I was seventeen?

[Doc Holliday]

They call it stormy monday
But tuesdays just as bad.
They call it stormy monday
But tuesdays just as bad.
Lord, and wednesdays worse
And thursdays all so sad.

[WinslowLeach]

You gotta know when hold em
Know when to fold em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run
You never count your money
When your sitting at the table
They'll be time enough to count it
When the dealin's done.

- The Gambler by Kenny Rogers

[Doc Holliday]

If the rain comes they run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
If the rain comes, if the rain comes

When the sun shines they slip into the shade
(When the sun shines down)
And drink their lemonade
(When the sun shines down)
When the sun shines, when the sun shines

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine

[mistertim]

Spent some times in stormy weather
Under clouds of my dilemma
Now there's nothing much to do
But sit and rot in front of televisions
Staring back at me
I'm just waiting for the microwaves
To wash me into the sea

Left to bleed whilst vultures glide

Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you've got;
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot.
Wouldn't you like to get away?


Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they're always glad you came;
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same;
You want to be where everybody knows your name.

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
They've turned things inside out
The truth is not so comfortable, no
And mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
And father taught us boundaries
Beyond which we must go
To find the secrets promised us, yeah
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away

Hehehe........ well it looked good in writing.... I'm such a sucker for good lyrics:

and I scream for the sunlight or a car to take me anywhere,
just get me past this dead and eternal snow,
cause I swear that I'm dying, slowly but its happening,
and if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere,
just take me there

Heeeeey Heeeeey Hey

[mistertim]

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night, it's only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together

If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together

I can't see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me, baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

I can't see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me, baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

So happy together
How is the weather
So happy together
We're happy together
So happy together
Happy together
So happy together
So happy together (ba-ba-ba-ba ba-ba-ba-ba)

Tanj obviously knows the definition of both 'Genius' and 'Oxymoron', I think.....

[tapehead]

Dennis, I'm with you (no offence to Tangerine).'Genius' is used colloquially in England in some very odd ways. It bothered me a great deal at first but then I realised that people will wrestle the language into submission just to suit their own immediate needs, the English particularly.

[MonkeyM666]

The language is named after them.... they can do what they like with it.






edit: when you found a language you can do what you want with it. Tapeian or something (sounds like a type of monkey... )

[tangerine]

Oh come aaawn!!! I was just making a statement. I do this Conor is teh genius though. See above definition.
