Me, either, but evidently I don't listen to the same music you all do 'cause I never can get it right! :p

Google it. Cheat. Do it.

I'll give you a hint about mine....

It's a song about Philly.

So I cheated and looked it up - G. Love and Special Sauce "I-76"

And here's mine.

As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
I take another deep breath
And feel the wind pass through my body
I'm the one in your soul
Reflecting the light
Protect the ones who hold you
Cradling your inner child

durrrrrr starting over:

Easy one:

Sometimes it seems you're not with me,
It hurts me so much,
It hurts me so much,
I love you so much . . .

Hard one:

When she wakes up in the morning, she writes down all her dreams,
Reads like the Book of Revelations, the Beano, or the unabridged Ulysses . . .

Weezer - "Jamie"

"I will cherish it
hours of madness,
years of dysfunction,
the deepest embitterment
No will to strive or achieve,
Finally in breakdown
perpetual fall on your knees,
As you crawl back to me"

"Wind in your sail" - Lagwagon

Mine was "Serenity" by Godsmack. I know some of you knew that. :(

And here's something a little old school...

Last night a little dancer
Came dancin' to my door,
Last night a little angel
Came pumping on the floor,
She said a "Come baby
I've got a license for love.
And if it expires
Pray help from above"
Because...

"Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol

Have you seen the well-to-do
Up and down Park Avenue
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air
High hats, and arrow collars
White spats, and lots of dollars
Spendin' every dime
For a wonderful time

;)

"Puttin' On The Ritz" by the one and only Taco

"Well it took a lot of work to be the a** that I am
And I'm pretty damn sure that anyone can
Easily, equally f*** you over"

Modest Mouse...Dark Center of the Universe

"She's always looking for a fight,
She keeps the neighbors up all night.
I go to her when I'm feeling slack,
The girl's using me for a punching bag,
I think that I could help her out,
The girl's got a lot to be mad about..."

I miss this thread so I'm cheating...it's Belle & Sebastian's "She's Losing It"


"I've had enough of scheming and messing around with jerks
My car is parked outside, I'm afraid it doesn't work
I'm looking for a partner, someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question: Do you want to be rich?"

Opportunities - Pet Shop Boys


Action speaks louder than words
and I'm a man of great experience
I know you've got another man
but I can love you better than him

Take my hand don't be afraid
I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertisin' love fo' free
So you can place yo' ad with me

Black Crowes, Hard to Handle

"She told me that I'd be ok
But I feel the same that I felt that day
when she said don't worry and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time.
As she sits back and finishes her wine,
She prays to the Lord I'll be fine..."

Mest
Mother's Prayer

Here's mine:
Alright, alright, alright, Ok now ladies,
And we going to break this back down in just a few seconds
Now don't have me break this thang down for nothin'
Now I wanna see y'all on y'all baddest behavior
Gimme some sugar, I am your neighbor

-Mark

OutKast - "Hey Ya"

"Surely don't stay long I'm missing you now.
It's like I told you I'm over you somehow
Before I close the door
I need to hear you say goodbye.
Baby won't you change your mind?"

Mazzy Star
Halah

here's mine:

"It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
And a Kenworth pulling logs
Cab-over Pete with a reefer on
And a Jimmy hauling hogs
We's heading for bear on I 10
About a mile outta Shakeytown
I says Pigpen, this here's Rubber Duck
And I'm about to put the hammer down"

It's much harder than my last one.

Convoy - C.W. McCall

Here's an oldie for us oldsters:

And now the room is softly fading
And I only kiss your shadow
I cannot feel your hand
You're a stranger now unto me..

Simon & Garfunkel - can't remember song title, but I think it's called "Dangling Conversation." There's something else about the couple being a poorly written poem, out of rhyme, pretty sad lyrics.

Here's mine...one of my favorite songs...

Reach out for me and hold me tight
Hold that memory
Let my machine talk to me
Let my machine talk to me

R.E.M. - World Leader Pretend

"There’s a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I’d be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off and countless screaming argonauts"

They Might Be Giants, "Birdhouse in Your Soul"

Is this what you wanted, Sammy Haggar?
Sammy Haggar, is this what you wanted, man?
Dave lost his hairline, but you lost your cool.
Can't drive 55, I'll never buy your lousy records again...

Nerf Herder, "Van Halen"


When she was three
Her Barbies always did it on the first date
Now she's with me,
There's never any need for them to demonstrate

"Life, in a Nutshell" Barenaked Ladies


There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There's secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away...
Maybe I'm just blind...

When I'm Gone - 3 Doors Down

"Grasp a kettle top and shoot the breeze, please
Ramble while slop scraper sighs
Tossing in his bed at night he'll dream until he dies"

Phish "The Mango Song"

rock from south street to one two fifth
women used to tease me
give it to me now nice and easy
since I moved up like George and Wheezy
cream to the maximum I be askin' 'em
would you like to bounce with the brother that's platinum

Will Smith, Getting Jiggy with it
(:: sighs and smiles :: Will :-D :rolleyes: :D)
**now for one of my favorites**

Somethin’ in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There’s somethin’ in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I’ve been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you’ve done

Feels Like Home

Though I walk through
Warm sands in africa
Winds will grow soon
To storms in africa.

How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
Will journey this way?

Storms in Africa II By Enya (i got that cd!)


"you can push me out the window,
I'll just get back up.
You can run over me with your 18-wheeler truck.
and i wont give a fuck.
You can hang me like a slave,
I'll go underground.
YOu can run over me with your 18-wheeler but,
You cant keep me down"

"18 wheeler"- pink


"when i was but a young child, i heard a voice from inside
tell me there is a reason you're here, so i just pretended and life was oh so splendid, and i felt my time drawing near, for my purpose mission, dream ambition, all i could see, tugging, pushing, nudging, pulling, burning inside of me"

Fleming and John - "Delusions of Grandeur"

and here's another Van Halen related song for kicks...

"Well you came to kick ass and to take names, you got sick of taking names.
Well you've been around for years, you've been around the block you were thick as thieves.
Well we can't believe that you replaced him with Gary Sharone.
Before that it was Sammy, and the hit Poundcake.
Not much better in our book."

David Lee Rock - Piebald

"May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,"

Bob Dylan - "Forever Young"

"A million miles of running and I hit the wall
I bounce back and I run some more
But this is it, I'm giving up, I'm calling quits
So get down and meet me on the floor"

Volcano Girls by Veruca Salt (excellent CD)

I wonder why......
I feel so high
though I am not above the sorrow
heavy hearted
till you call my name.....

And it sounds like church bells
on the whistle of dream
on a summer evening
I run to meet you barefoot
barely breathing..

"As I Lay Me Down" Sophie B. Hawkins


His Zippo lighter reveals the killers face
Maybe it's someone standing the killer's place
20 years for nothing,
well that's nothing new
No one's interested in something you didn't do.

Wheat Kings
The Tragically Hip



With dripping wings. Heavy things won't fly.
And the sky might catch on fire.
And burn the axis of the world,

Nina Gordon, "Tonight (and the Rest of My Life)"

"I will go down as your lover, your friend,
Give me your lips and with one kiss we begin,
Are you afraid of being alone? 'Cause I am..."

Blink 182 - "I'm Lost Without You"

"Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him"

Echo and the bunnymen
The killing moon


here's mine

Hey fat girl come here are ya’ ticklish?
Yeah I called you fat
Look at me I’m skinny it never stopped me from getting busy
I’m a freak, I like the girls with the boobs
I once got busy in a Burger King Bathroom

digital underground- humpty dance

"I must walk just like you, I must talk just like you, I must learn what to do, I need to, I need to, I must try not to fall, I must climb every wall, I must do nothing at all, I need to, I need to..."

digital underground - the humpty dance

fyi - the lyrics are i like the girls with the booM, not boobs.. (thus, rhyming with bathroom, but i digress)

"why can't i be optimistic
i tried to find the logic logically
i, i had a dream and i could not shake it
i was standing up there naked"

hey man, i got it first

yeah, but i corrected him therefore i win :)
