Max Kane Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Clearly stolen thread from GK Board but it worked well on there, lots of quality lyrics and being as my dissertation is focusing on lyrics would be nice to see ya all pitch in My effort... The world seems outta touch, I don't get out too much, And i don't feel the same in the bones anymore, My heals are all worn down, My loyalties are torn, I'm finding different paths now I didn't see before, And the paths lead me away, Lead me away from those, Blood thirsty b*stards, Makin plans for no-one, But themselves, In this world of disaster i just need someone for myself, All the sycophants and vampires :shock: I cast them off to hell, I've been up for days now i hope no-one can tell. Mr Barat at his best, probably some of the best lyrics on 'Waterloo to Anywhere' and went down a storm last night at the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Ideally I'd find some Pet Shop Boys' lyrics but for now you'll just have to do with Shelton Blake's track - "The Truth About Men" We don't like to go out shoppin', We don't care what's on sale. We just want to sit with a bag full of chips, Watchin' the NFL. When you come over at half-time, An' say: "Does this dress fit too tight?" We just look you in the eye with a big fat lie, An say:"Uh, uh: Looks just right." Well, that's the truth about men. Yeah, that's the truth about us. We like to hunt and golf on our days off, Scratch, an' spit, an cuss. It don't matter what line we hand you, When we come draggin' in. We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry, An' it's probably gonna happen again. We hate watchin' "Steel Magnolias". We like "Rambo" an' "Die Hard 4". Jump up and down like fools when we see the new tools, At the Home Depot store. We don't really wanna take you to dinner, At some fancy restaurant. The only reason we do is 'cause we know it leads to, The one thing that we all want. Well, that's the truth about men. Yeah, that's the truth about guys. We'd rather play guitars and work on cars, Than work on the problems in our lives. An' though we might say it to you, Every now and then, We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry, An' it's probably gonna happen again. Well, if you want to know what we're all thinkin', It's nothing too complex. It's just somethin' cold for drinkin', And a whole lot of s-e...... Yes, that's the truth about men. Yeah, that's the truth about us. We like to hunt and golf an' drive around, lost, Scratch, an' spit, an' a whole lot of other disgustin' stuff. It don't matter what line we hand you, When we come a-crawlin' in. We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry, An' it's probably gonna happen again. We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry, An' it's probably gonna happen; Sure, it's gonna happen; You know it's gonna happen again. An' that's the truth about men. You know it, son.

Max Kane Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 There are fewer more distressing sights than that, of an Englishman in a baseball cap who will die in the class he was born, Well that's a class of our own my love A class of our own my love One Peter Doherty in 'Time for Heroes' And it occured to me i think on Lambeth Road, There's no need to question life or cry for what i'm owed, And now it's over, and now it's done, The English sun is setting and the rudeboys on the run.
