  • Bob Dylan - The Times, They Are A-Changin'

    Come gather 'round people
    Wherever you roam
    And admit that the waters
    Around you have grown
    And accept it that soon
    You'll be drenched to the bone
    If your time to you
    Is worth savin'
    Then you better start swimmin'
    Or you'll sink like a stone
    For the times they are a-changin'

    Come writers and critics
    Who prophesise with your pen
    And keep your eyes wide
    The chance won't come again
    And don't speak too soon
    For the wheel's still in spin
    And there's no tellin' who
    That it's namin'
    For the loser now
    Will be later to win
    For the times they are a-changin'

    Come senators, congressmen
    Please heed the call
    Don't stand in the doorway
    Don't block up the hall
    For he that gets hurt
    Will be he who has stalled
    There's a battle outside
    And it is ragin'
    It'll soon shake your windows
    And rattle your walls
    For the times they are a-changin'

    Come mothers and fathers
    Throughout the land
    And don't criticise
    What you can't understand
    Your sons and your daughters
    Are beyond your command
    Your old road is
    Rapidly agin'
    Please get out of the new one
    If you can't lend your hand
    For the times they are a-changin'

    The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin'
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin'
    "Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt Whitman

    • Fire and Rain

      James Taylor


      Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
      Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
      I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song
      I just can’t remember who to send it to

      I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
      I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      But I always thought that I’d see you again

      Won’t you look down upon me, jesus
      You’ve got to help me make a stand
      You’ve just got to see me through another day
      My body’s aching and my time is at hand
      And I won’t make it any other way

      Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
      I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      But I always thought that I’d see you again

      Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
      Lord knows when the cold wind blows it’ll turn your head around
      Well, there’s hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things
      To come
      Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

      Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
      I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
      I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
      But I always thought that I’d see you, baby, one more time again, now

      Thought I’d see you one more time again
      There’s just a few things coming my way this time around, now
      Thought I’d see you, thought I’d see you fire and rain, now
      Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

      • Celtic New Year
        Van Morrison


        If I don't see you through the week
        See you through the window
        See you next time that we're talking on the telephone
        And if I don't see you in that Indian summer
        Then I want to see you further on up the road

        I said, oh won't you come back?
        I have to see you my dear
        Want you come back in the Celtic New Year?
        In the Celtic New Year

        If I don't see you when I'm going down Louisiana
        If I don't see you when I'm down on Bourbon Street
        If you don't see me when I'm singing Jack of Diamonds
        If you don't see me when I'm on my lucky streak

        Woa, I want you, want you to come on back
        I've made it very clear
        I want you to come back home in the Celtic New Year
        Celtic New Year

        If I don't see you when the bonfires are burning, burning
        If I don't see you when we're singing the Gloriana tune
        If I've got to see you when it's raining deep inside the forest
        I got to see you at the waning of the moon

        Said oh, won't you come on back?
        Want you to be of good cheer
        Come back home on the Celtic New Year

        Celtic New Year, Celtic New Year
        Celtic New Year
        In the Celtic New Year
        In the Celtic New Year

        Come on home, come on home, come on home, come on home
        In the Celtic New Year
        Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

          Everyone is going fetal

          Feels like your mama's nest
          Alright

          Everyone is going fetal
          It's the one thats really real

          You just lay down like you're gonna die
          Alright

          Everyone is going fetal
          If you feel like your fate is sealed
          Then just get down and curl on up

          Alright

          Everyone is going fetal

            You make that dance look so new
            And I'm in awe
            A face like you've never seen
            I'm yours tonight
            So come on
            Light the stage
            So we can all take off
            Anywhere
            We'll never come back
            Ever

            You wear that cast so cool
            And I'm in awe
            A face like you've never seen before
            Around
            So come on, yeah
            Light the stage
            So we can all take off
            Anywhere
            We'll never come back
            Ever

            Lie on the stage
            You picture all of us everywhere
            We'll never come back
            Ever
            I wasn't born with enough middle fingers.

            • From the best Buffy the Vampire Slayer ever.

              Rest in Peace

              I died
              So many years ago
              But you can make me feel
              Like it isn't so
              And why you come to be with me
              I think I finally know
              mmm-mmm

              You're scared
              Ashamed of what you feel
              And you can't tell the ones you love
              You know they couldn't deal
              Whisper in a dead man's ear
              It doesn't make it real
              That's great

              But I don't wanna play
              'Cause being with you touches me
              More than I can say
              And since I’m only dead to you
              I’m saying stay away and
              Let me rest in peace

              Let me rest in peace
              Let me get some sleep
              Let me take my love and bury it
              In a hole 6-foot deep
              I can lay my body down
              But I can't find my, sweet release
              So let me rest in peace

              You know,
              You got a willing slave
              And You just love to play the thought
              That you might misbehave
              But Till you do,
              I'm telling you
              Stop visiting my grave
              Let me rest in peace

              I know I should go
              But I follow you like a man possessed
              There's a traitor here beneath my breast
              And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
              If my heart could beat, it would break my chest
              but I can see you're unimpressed
              So leave me be and

              Let me rest in peace
              Let me get some sleep
              Let me take my love and bury it
              Im a hole 6-foot deep
              I can lay my body down
              But I can't find my sweet release
              Let me rest in peace
              Why won't you
              Let me rest in peace?
              Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

                Spoken: The good thing with the law these days, right
                Is that criminals know their rights better than their wrongs

                [Chorus]
                What do you mean routine check?
                I didn’t take this route to be checked

                Ten two nine
                Teddy tends to not have time
                That’s when Teddy wants to decline
                To entertain all your piss taking jives
                I tell you my name
                I’m identified by
                And when the station verifies
                You realise what I tell you is right
                Your hand dips inside my black Stan Smiths
                Rustles my CK boxers
                F*ck sake you nearly grabbed man’s d*ck
                c*nt-stable
                Sorry I didn’t mean c*nt-stable
                But that name feels so comfortable
                And I find it so fun to talk
                Coz there’s no sh*t goin down nothin at all
                Seein your sidekicks getting kicks
                Off my side’s embarrassment
                But you’ll see me end up in the van again
                And you’ll hear the cell door slam again

                Oi oi I don’t get many routine checks these days
                But these bros are not the same
                Apart from the day off that train from that Tottenham game
                I do tend to end days in the police station
                On occasion lately
                Once a week
                Maybe
                I get a crime reference number for my most recent phone
                The police code that’s the code for a free phone
                Take one camera phone
                Tell em I got jacked of the phone
                When in fact actually though
                The previous evening back at home
                I played baby foot
                No-one jacked my phone
                I madly gambled my phone and got smacked
                By my bro

                [Chorus]
                What do you mean routine check?

                    Does anybody actually read the lyrics in these threads, or you just post them to yourself?

                    • Dave Chapelle's R. Kelly Parody

                      "I want to Piss on You"

                      [intro]

                      (spoken)
                      Yeah. This is the R.
                      40 oz. of malt liquor make me want to tell you somethin'.


                      (verse 1)

                      Rollin round, sittin on dubs. Countin the hours, high on shrubs.

                      Coolin in my Escalade. Man I'm paid, I got it made!

                      Take me to your special place. Close your eyes, show me your face.

                      I'm gonna piss on it!


                      (chorus)

                      Haters wanna hate, lovers wanna love. I don't even want none of the above.

                      I want to piss on you! Yes I do. I'll piss on you; I'll pee on you.


                      (verse 2)

                      Said your body.. your body.. is a Porta-Potty.

                      And my pee I'd kick; like it know's karate. (knows karate)

                      You'll never feel quite the same once u take a whiff of my Hershey stains.

                      I want to poop on u too. I want to pee in your food.

                      Only thing that make my life complete is when I turn your face into a toilet seat.

                      I'm gonna piss on you!


                      (chorus)

                      Won't you braid my hair? Said won't you braid my hair?
                      Before we start, I'm gonna fart. I'm gonna fart on you.

                        Green Eyes

                        Honey you are a rock
                        Upon which I stand
                        And I came here to talk
                        I hope you understand
                        The green eyes, yeah the spotlight, shines upon you
                        And how could, anybody, deny you
                        I came here with a load
                        And it feels so much lighter now I met you
                        And honey you should know
                        That I could never go on without you
                        Green eyes

                        Honey you are the sea
                        Upon which I float
                        And I came here to talk
                        I think you should know

                        The green eyes, you're the one that I wanted to find
                        And anyone who tried to deny you, must be out of their mind
                        Because I came here with a load
                        And it feels so much lighter since I met you
                        Honey you should know
                        That I could never go on without you
                        Green eyes, green eyes
                        Oh oh oh oh

                        Honey you are a rock
                        Upon which I stand

                          Across The Universe

                          Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
                          They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
                          Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
                          Possessing and caressing me.
                          Jai guru de va om
                          Nothing's gonna change my world,
                          Nothing's gonna change my world.

                          Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
                          That call me on and on across the universe,
                          Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
                          Tumble blindly as they make their way
                          Across the universe
                          Jai guru de va om
                          Nothing's gonna change my world,
                          Nothing's gonna change my world.

                          Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
                          Through my open views inviting and inciting me
                          Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
                          Million suns, it calls me on and on
                          Across the universe
                          Jai guru de va om
                          Nothing's gonna change my world,
                          Nothing's gonna change my world.

                          • A personal favorite from Genesis.

                            Undertow

                            The curtains are drawn
                            Now the fire warms the room.
                            Meanwhile outside
                            Wind from the north-east chills the air,
                            It will soon be snowing out there.

                            And some there are cold,
                            They prepare for a sleepless night.
                            Maybe this will be their last fight.

                            But we're safe in each other's embrace,
                            All fears go out as I look on your face-

                            Better think awhile
                            Or I may never think again.
                            If this were the last day of your life, my friend,
                            Tell me, what do you think you would do then?

                            Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you,
                            Make the most of all you still have coming to you, or
                            Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you,
                            Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees

                            Let me live again, let life come find me wanting.
                            Spring must strike again against the shield of winter.
                            Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me,
                            Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again.

                            Laughter, music and perfume linger here
                            And there, and there,
                            Wine flows from flask to glass and mouth,
                            As it soothes, confusing our doubts.

                            And soon we feel,
                            Why do a single thing to-day,
                            There's tomorrow sure as I'm here.

                            So the days they turn into years
                            And still no tomorrow appears.

                            Better think awhile
                            Or I may never think again.
                            If this were the last day of your life, my friend,
                            Tell me, what do you think you would do then?

                            Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you,
                            Make the most of all you still have coming to you, or
                            Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you,
                            Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees

                            Let me live again, let life come find me wanting.
                            Spring must strike again, against the shield of winter.
                            Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me,
                            Telling me the danger's past, I need not fear the icy blast again.

                              • Not About Love
                                Fiona Apple

                                The early cars already are
                                Drawing deep breaths past my door
                                And last night's phrases, sick with lack of basis
                                Are still arriving on my floor

                                And it doesn't seem fair
                                That your wicked words should work in holding me down
                                No, it doesn't seem right
                                To take information given at close range
                                For the gag and the bind and the ammunition round

                                Conversation once colored by esteem
                                Became dialogue as a diagram of a play for pun
                                Took a vacation, my palate got clean
                                Now I could taste your agenda while you're spitting your cud

                                And it doesn't make sense
                                I should fall for the kingcraft of a meritless crown
                                No, it doesn't seem right
                                To take information given at close range
                                For the gag and the bind and the ammunition round

                                This is not about love
                                'Cause I am not in love
                                In fact I can't stop falling out
                                This is not about love
                                'Cause I am not in love
                                In fact I can't stop falling out
                                I miss that stupid ache

                                "What is this posture I have to stare at?"
                                That's what he said when I'm sitting up straight
                                Change the name of the game 'cause he lost
                                And he knew he was wrong but he knew it too late

                                But I'm not being fair
                                'Cause I chose to listen to that filthy mouth
                                But I'd like to choose right
                                Take all the things that I've said that he stole
                                Put 'em in a sack, swing 'em over my shoulder
                                Turn on my heels, step out of this sight
                                Try to live in a lovelier light

                                This is not about love
                                'Cause I am not in love
                                In fact I can't stop falling out
                                This is not about love
                                'Cause I am not in love
                                In fact I can't stop falling out
                                I miss that stupid ache
