Guilty Cocker Spaniels by Modest Mouse:

Well I took off running at the greatest speed

I didn't bother looking to either side of me

Well I didn't see, I just didn't see

What was really going on

The truth had stopped and the skyline rose

Exchanging comfort for more fashionable clothes

I'd left the hills at this point in time

To run on treadmills in a perfect line

Salad days add up to daily shit

Sparked imagination until the sparks just quit

And if this is fun, why am I so bored with it?

Well I'll probably never know

Guilty Cocker Spaniels eating table scraps

Well we rolled over, how our masters clapped

It felt so good we wanted more than that

But when the program failed they defensively laughed

We did things just how you asked

Don't try taking us to task

Didn't buy a face, no just a mask

So happy Halloween!



Broke by Modest Mouse:

It's the end of the discussions that just go round and round

And round, and round, and round, and round,

And round, and round it shouldn't have been anyway

No way, no way, that's right, that's right

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, uh no

Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, uh no



Custom Concern by Modest Mouse:

I get up just about noon

My head sends a message for me to reach for my shoes and then walk

Got to go to work, got to go to work, got to have a job



Goes through the parking lot fields

Didn't see no signs that they will yield and then thought

This'll never end, this'll never end, this'll never stop
 
Shanks & Bigfoot - Sweet Like Chocolate



Sweet like chocolate

You're sweet like chocolate

Finding your way in the dark

Ain't so hard when you're close to my heart

You are there when I'm feeling alone

All I need is for you to come home



You're sweet like chocolate boy

Sweet like chocolate

You bring me so much joy

You're sweet like chocolate boy



Trust is the lock is the key

There's no doubt that your love's all for me

You are sweet on the tip of my tongue

You are warm like the rays of the sun



You're sweet like chocolate boy

Sweet like chocolate

You bring me so much joy

You're sweet like chocolate boy



You're sweet like

Da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da



Knowing you're there every day

Makes me high in my own special way

I am calm in the face of your love

Holding you is a gift from above



You're sweet like chocolate boy

Sweet like chocolate

You bring me so much joy

You're sweet like chocolate boy



You're sweet like

Da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da

You had me waiting even on a second date

I picked you up, I took you to your favorite place

I saw you flirtin' but I looked the other way, away, away, away, hey.



You rolled me up and said you had a place to go

Just grabbed my keys you took my car and stole my phone

I knew I shouldn't, but I let you get away, away, away away



But I'm not a player, I'm not a clown

I won't be a puppet, just hangin' around

You need another man to put diamonds on your hands

and let you take his car, I found out who you are

I finally figured, you out.



I should've seen it comin' you were just pretend

Used up my credit card and maxxed it to the end

I wish I'd known before I hit the ATM, oh, no, it happened again



I'm not a player, I'm not a clown

I won't be your puppet just hanging around

You need another man to put diamonds on your hands

and let you take his car, I found out who you are

I finally figured, you out



I'm goin away, far far away, I'm goin' away, so far away

I'm goin away, far far away... I'm gonna pack your bags

and kick you out I'm sorry but I figured you out.



So long, so long, farewell... Repeat chorus, fade.
 
Peter Andre - Unconditional

I was already there

Just in another place

Destiny hadn’t brought us face to face

What i didn’t realise

Is how you would change my life

Turn me from a boy to a man

Becoming a father before i became a dad

Wish i was there for your first breath

Wish i could’ve helped with your first step

But i’m here now



Unconditional

I finally understand the meaning of it now

It’s Unconditional

I pray that life will always treat you kind

Unconditional



How could a man not wanna claim his own

Leaving a mother to raise a child alone

Maybe it was destiny

Maybe you were made for me

With everything that comes along

Ill give you my word, ill take it on

Wish i was there for your first breath

Wish i could’ve helped with your first step

But i’m here now



Unconditional

I finally understand the meaning of it now

Its Unconditional

I pray that life will always treat you kind



When the world doesn’t see you like i do

I’ll be the eyes that guide and see you though

In the night when you cry and you call out my name

Your realise there’s love surrounding you



I was already there

Just in another place

Destiny hadn’t brought us face to face

What i didn’t realise

Is how you would change my life

Turn me from a boy to a man

Becoming a father before i became a dad
 
Freewill

by Rush

Lyrics by Neil Peart

Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

Released 1980 on the album Permanent Waves from Mercury Records







There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance take,

A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance.



A planet of playthings,

We dance on the strings

Of powers we cannot perceive

The stars aren't aligned,

Or the gods are malign...

Blame is better to give than receive.



Chorus

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;

I will choose a path that's clear

I will choose freewill.



There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand,

The cards were stacked against them; they weren't born in Lotusland.



All preordained

A prisoner in chains

A victim of venomous fate.

Kicked in the face,

You can't pray for a place

In heaven's unearthly estate.



Chorus



Each of us

A cell of awareness

Imperfect and incomplete.

Genetic blends

With uncertain ends

On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet.



Chorus





NOTE: when doing extensive quoting of the intellectual property of another, it's best to give proper credit.
 
Through Heaven's Eyes

(Prince Of Egypt Soundtrack)



--> The video



A single thread in a tapestry

Through its color brightly shine

Can never see its purpose

In the pattern of the grand design



And the stone that sits on the very top

Of the mountain's mighty face

Does it think it's more important

Than the stones that form the base?



So how can you see what your life is worth

Or where your value lies?

You can never see through the eyes of man

You must look at your life



Look at your life through heaven's eyes

Lai-la-lai...



A lake of gold in the desert sand

Is less than a cool fresh spring

And to one lost sheep, a shepherd boy

Is greater than the richest king

If a man lose everything he owns

Has he truly lost his worth?

Or is it the beginning

Of a new and brighter birth?



So how do you measure the worth of a man

In wealth or strength or size?

In how much he gained or how much he gave?

The answer will come

The answer will come to him who tries

To look at his life through heaven's eyes



And that's why we share all we have with you

Though there's little to be found

When all you've got is nothing

There's a lot to go around



No life can escape being blown about

By the winds of change and chance

And though you never know all the steps

You must learn to join the dance

You must learn to join the dance

Lai-la-lai...



So how do you judge what a man is worth

By what he builds or buys?

You can never see with your eyes on earth

Look through heaven's eyes

Look at your life

Look at your life

Look at your life through heaven's eyes



This song/lyrics has been my favorite for far too long.

Face Down by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus





Hey girl you know you drive me crazy.

One look put's the rhythm in my hand.

Still I'll never understand why you hang around

I see what's going down.

Cover-up with make-up in the mirror

Tell yourself it's never gonna happen again

You cry alone and then he swears he loves you.



Chorus:



Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend one day this world's going to end

As your lies crumble down a new life she has found.



A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect

Every action in this world will bear a consequence

If you wade around forever you will surely drown

I see what's going down.

I see the way you go and say you're right again,

say you're right again,

heed my lecture



Chorus:



Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend one day this worlds going to end

As your lies crumble down a new life she has found.



One day she will tell you that she has had enough

its coming round again.



Chorus:

Do you feel like a man

When you push her around?

Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground?

Well I'll tell you my friend one day this worlds going to end

As your lies crumble down a new life she has found.

[x2]
 
My favourite lyrics are from the song “only hope” by Mandy Moore.



“There's a song that's inside of my soul

It's the one that I've tried to write

over and over again

I'm awake and in the infinite cold

But You sing to me over and over and

over again



So I lay my head back down

And I lift my hands

And pray to be only Yours

I pray to be only Yours

I know now You're my only hope



Sing to me of the song of the stars

Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing

and laughing again

When it feels like my dreams are so far

Sing to me of the plans that You have

for me over again



I give You my apathy

I'm giving You all of me

I want Your symphony

Singing in all that I am

At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back”
 
La Dispute - Said the King to the River



Up, my lady, pack your things

This place is not your home, nor was it ever

Sever every tie

Tonight we ride, tonight we ride

Tonight we ride

And how we've trembled at the way that time assembles

Little fires of desire in the tundra of our skin

So, do yourself a little favor, savor every time you waver

For that shaking in my voice was only slightly feigned chagrin

Tonight we ride

Tonight we ride



Lover, uncover

I know it's warm beneath your sheets and there is ice along the streets but listen

Lover, we will recover

But we've no time to waste with meddling in affairs

We've locked so tightly in our dreams

We are not clean, we are not pure

We will not rest until we're sure

So rob your pretty little eyes of sleep's disguise

I'm at your bedside with a bucket full of lies

So clear your ears and listen

Up, my lady, pack your things

This place is not your home



And I know what is

And to the glorious past

You've opened my window but broken the glass

And I beseech thee, shed thy beauty

For as a child leaves the womb and learns the cold

You have taught us peril in the present

And you will bring us peril in our surely soon to be

Unless the river's not flooded this time



Oh, precious distance

Oh, precious pain, you've given me a name

And etched it in the stones of the river bank

Oh, precious distance

Oh, precious pain, you've given us a name

You've given us a name



Rise, said the king to the river

Never let up

No, bring us a flood and bring it hard

Breathe, said the Wind to the water

Never give in

No, build us a bridge

And build it strong and angry.

Let it still the king's decrees

You must contemplate the current, boy

And command that coward cease

The boy breathes for his love says, I wait

His love says, I wait

She's shouting out, I will come back

Yes, I will come back

And I will come

I have lived my life so uncomfortably

Darling, come for me, come for me



Rise, said the boy to his love

Darling, get up

I've brought you my love

And brought it far

Leave, said the girl to her lover

I've given in

If love is a bridge, we built it wrong

Curb your anger

Still your fists

She will never come back

She'll never come back

She'll never come

Never come back

She'll never come



Not my favorite, but I really like these lyrics.
 
Pardon the language, but here's a favorite set of lyrics I enjoy.



Twiztid's Story Of Our Lives.



[Monoxide]

I want everybody listening now to say this

Twiztid is the muthafucking shit

And everybody else who feels that I'm a little out of line

Come see me when you hitting rewind and you will find

That I'm an ex-con serial killa axe wielding for real-a big gorilla

As I walk in the shadow of death

I bitch slap his ass and then I light a cigarette

I told you all I'm addicted to drugs and weird sex

And putting holes in the back of your neck carnival reject

Respect like you do to don dada when you see me give your boy a holler

Got the world in a shock collar like a rotweiler on the loose

Running trains on your girls caboose

Don't believe in the truce we gonna fight until somebody here dies

I been here since 1865 and no lies



[Chorus]

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you

Here we go

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you



[Jamie Madrox]

We came through the door kicking that bitch off the hinge

We was knocking but wouldn't nobody let us in

It's the incredible edible white chocolate rappers

We came on the scene busting the cabbage patch backwards

D-I-T-Z-I-W-T we were born connected at the hip like Siamese twins

We coming out with the underground sound

And one finger on each hand and you can count them



[Monoxide]

Fuck everybody here man it's not about them

And tucked inside of my bag is a problem

Underground feel the ground shake

Feel it vibrate watch your girl gyrate

We can move the whole world if we choose

But instead we kick the wickedest blues

And I refuse to lose the demographic of the people

Who choose to put there hearts inside the black magic



[Chorus]

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you

Here we go

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you



[Jamie Madrox]

We write voodoo sayings on the fronts of t-shirts

So that when people read 'em they will become creatures

Twiztid still coming with the ultra man flow

That'll linger in your brain and constantly echo

We ain't in it to be rich we're in it to reach folks

And change life and put you up on shit you ain't know

That's about it you're in the midst of some maniacs

Who will unload a microphone on your dome as if it's a gat

So conceal the unreal if the fruit is mass appeal

We're the worms eating our way from under the apple peal

With all juice and no pulp fiction

No dollar ninety nine a minute for our predictions

We smash mics like with the rhymes we recite

Keep this mutha fucka hype from now till sunlight

Now do you really need a shovel to dig it

And with a flip of a coin we can be righteous or wicked



[Chorus]

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you

Here we go

This is the story of our lives

Come and take a look at my eyes

Keep it real and tell me no lies

We've been waiting for you



We've been waiting for you



We've been waiting for you



We've been waiting for you



We've been waiting for you
 
My Time Is Now - John Cena

( His WWE Intro Theme Song )



[Chorus: John Cena]

Your time is up, my time is now

You can't see me, my time is now

It's the franchise, boy I'm shinin now

You can't see me, my time is now!



[John Cena]

In case you forgot or fell off I'm still hot - knock your shell off

My money stack fat plus I can't turn the swell off

The franchise, doin big bid'ness, I live this

It's automatic I win this - oh you hear those horns, you finished

A soldier, and I stay under you fightin

Plus I'm stormin on you chumps like I'm thunder and lightning

Ain't no way you breakin me kid, I'm harder than nails

Plus I keep it on lock, like I'm part of the jail

I'm slaughterin stale, competition, I got the whole block wishin

they could run with my division but they gone fishin -

- with no bait, kid your boy hold weight

I got my soul straight, I brush your mouth like Colgate

In any weather I'm never better your boy's so hot

you'll never catch me in the next man's sweater

If they hate, let 'em hate, I drop ya whole clan

Lay yo' ass DOWN for the three second TAN



[Chorus]



[Tha Trademarc]

Yeah, uhh

It's gon' be what it's gon' be

Five pounds of courage buddy, bass tint pants with a gold T

Uhh - it's a war dance and victory step

A raw stance is a gift, when you insist it's my rep

John Cena, Trademarc, y'all are so-so

And talk about the bread you make but don't know the recipe for dough though

Aimin guns in all your photos, that's a no-no

When this pop, you'll liplock, your big talk's a blatant no-show

See what happens when the ice age melt

You see monetary status is not what matters, but it helps

I rock a timepiece by Benny if any

The same reason y'all could love me is the same reason y'all condemn me

A man's measured by the way that he thinks

Not clothing lines, ice links, leather and minks

I spent 20 plus years seekin knowledge of self

So for now Marc Predka's livin live for wealth



[Chorus - repeat 2X]
 
My favourite lyrics are from “eternal flame” by Atomic Kitten.



Close your eyes

Give me your hand, darlin'

Do you feel my heart beating

Do you understand

Do you feel the same

Or am I only dreaming

Is this burnin' an eternal flame



I believe

It's meant to be, darlin'

I watch you when you are sleeping

You belong with me

Do you feel the same

Or am I only dreaming

Is this burnin' an eternal flame



Say my name

Sun shines through the rain

Of all life so lonely

And come and ease the pain

I don't wanna lose this feeling
 
Baby Back - Rodney Carrington



Darling when we met

You were a pretty little thing

But your body started changing

When I gave you that ring



You’re supersizing, no exercising

Goodbye working out

A double meat with cheese, another helping please

Baby that’s what you’re all about



I pick you up in my pickup truck

But you had to ride in the back

I stopped off at the Sonic Burger

You ate everything in my sack



Darling please, won’t you please think of me

I’d love to have my baby back (baby back)

My baby back (baby back)

My baby back (baby back)



Six months have passed and you’ve gained 50 pounds

And I confess you got a real big rack

But the bad part is when I give you a hug

You got a two more on your back



You’re supersizing, no exercising

Goodbye working out

A double meat with cheese, another helping please

Baby that’s what you’re all about



I played football with the boys last night

And you were all time quarterback

But none of us could ever tackle you

Cause you’re built like a lumberjack



Darling please, won’t you please think of me

I’d love to have my baby back (baby back)

Put down the ribs (baby back)

My baby back (baby back)

And baby come back to me yeah



Baby won’t you come on back



This song makes me chuckle!!
