    omg, thats a hard one, im stumped.
    for a full song id say.
    my Dying Bride - The light at the End of the world
    http://www.darklyrics.com/lyrics/mydyingbride/thelightattheendoftheworld.html#4
    too hard to pick a quote tho so ill go for this.

    Paradise Lost - Colossal Rains


    A sheltered scenery as the arms outstrtch for me

    You'll never walk again (In a sorry sea of pale sound uplifting
    here, dark waters flow free through the
    achways of silent dreams)

    Brought back from centuries, creation seen
    The colossal rains mortal spirits drained

    Can this be real, what the frozen rains reveal

    whoa eh, like he said im stumped!

    well only thing i can think of right now is one part of a deftones song called lhabia on the around the fur album. this part of the song always makes me smile. it goes.....

    its too bad........................your married....... (then long pause)....... to me..... (then guitar and drums kick in)

    its just the way that part of the song is done is really good.

    oh wait in red hot chilli peppers song purple stain the line "i put my middle finger in your monthly blood" is kinda funny when you figure it out.

    "Stood there leaning to the city moon..."

    If no one here knows this one here then they need a good kicking! And no googleing!! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭xx


    My Dying Bride - The Whore, The Cook and the Mother - from the 34.88% complete album

    "Tell me that I'm a sinner
    Lay me down again
    I need a soft flesh bed
    My lust must be fed
    Lay your hands on me
    Lay your perfect hands on me
    You know exactly what I want
    So open wide
    Take me now I'm yours
    Lay me down again
    Your heat rips through me
    Your hands rip my skin
    Deep inside your love
    You're screaming for me again
    My seed is passed to you
    We are now one"

    Excellent lyrics them, and the 4 minute instrumental bit after that is amazing too. Totally haunting.

    Devin Townsend - Bastard - from the Biomech album

    "Grey people stare at a static sky (as you will)
    Ours is not to question why"

    Says it all really!!!!!!

    nirvana - all apologies

    What else should I be
    All apologies
    What else could I say
    All my words are grey *origional lyric*
    What else could I write
    I don't have the right
    What else should I be
    All apologies

    In the sun
    In the sun I feel as one
    In the sun
    In the sun
    I'm married
    Buried

    I wish I was like you
    Easily amused
    Find my nest of salt
    Everything is my fault
    I'll take all the blame
    Aqua seafoam shame
    Sunburn with freezeburn
    Choking on the ashes of her enemy

    In the sun
    In the sun I feel as one
    In the sun
    In the sun
    Married, Married, Married!
    Buried!
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah

    All in all is all we are (x20)

    the whole first verse and the ending line are really good

    Dunno about my "favourite" but danm it they put a smile on my face every time ;)

    From a boston punk band called DarkBuster

    "NRA" & "Not Guilty"

    NRA
    lead in - live -
    "This is our ... PRO handgun song ... That means go out, buy one and shoot yourself in the f*cking mouth ......"


    I can't write the lyrics here 'cause some of it I can't make out an it wouldn't make any sense because if it. But other bits are just downright hilarious.


    Not Guilty
    lead in - live -

    This is a drunk-driving thing. So you better watch out cause the Massacheucettes cops are waiting to bust your ass ....


    I went to court today
    They took my license away for operating OUI
    I saw the magistrate, He said kid get it straight
    You just cant drink and drive

    I took my old Ford van
    Full of empty beer cans, Drove up Route 106
    I passed a police man, He pulled me over
    And then said "Recite Your Alphabet"
    "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST"
    And then I stopped at U
    I didn't quite know what I'd do
    I guess I failed the mans sobriety test

    But I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty
    Well I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty

    I had to wait in jail, Till my mom could get me bail
    I got a lawyer too, He said I might be in luck
    For 75 hundred bucks, To see what he could do

    But I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty
    Well I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty

    But I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty
    No I'm Not Guilty
    Your Guilty
    I'm Not Guilty
    So Please Wont You Give Me My License Back

    System of a Down's

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,139 ✭✭✭Sauron


    hmmm a hard one indeed.....a bit to vague.. maybe " craziest lyrics" would be an idea.. anyway mine would be Pumpkins: "soma"
    SOMA
    Im not going to bother with the whole lot but heres a quote
    "so let the saddness come again, on that u can depend on me yeah, until the bitter bitter end of the world, god sleeps in bliss"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 388 ✭✭da_deadman


    Nirvana - Territorial Pissings

    nirvana - something in the way

    underneath the bridge, the tarp has sprung a leak
    and the animals i've trapped have alll become my pets
    and i'm living off of grass and the drippings from the ceiling and it's ok to eat fish cos they don't have any feelings

    Maybe not on the Lyric sheet but it's definitely there at the front of the song :D

    I will stone you , stone you
    Wrap my arms around you,
    I will stone you , stone you
    My little Halo

    Personally the one that gets me right now is Always by Saliva .....

    Am I your one and only desire,
    Am I the reason you breathe

    I LOVE YOU ,

    I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU .....

    I Guess that I'm out the door and that I'm done with you ....

    I got the down payment blues.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭Lemming


    Now I got no patience
    So sick of complacence
    With the D the E the F the I the A the N the C the E Mind of a revolutionary
    So clear the lane
    The finger to the land of the chains
    What?
    The land of the free?
    Whoever told you that is your enemy?"

    - Know Your Enemy, R.A.T.M.

    Some balls are held for charity
    And some for fancy dress
    But when they're held for pleasure
    They're the balls that I like best
    My balls are always bouncing
    To the left and to the right
    It's my belief that my big balls
    Should be held every night
    - Big Balls, AC/DC

    dont call me white - NoFx

    don't call me white, don't call me white x2

    the connotations wearing my nerves thin
    could it be semantics generating the mess we're in?
    I understand that language breeds stereotype
    but what's the explanation for the malice, for the spite?

    don't call me white, don't call me white x2

    I wasn't brought here, I was born
    circumcised, categorized, allegiance sworn
    does this mean I have to take such ****
    for being fair skinned? No!
    I ain't a part of no conspiracy, i'm just you're average joe

    don't call me white, don't call me white.....

    represents everything I hate
    the soap shoved in the mouth to cleanse the mind
    the vast majority of sheep
    a buttoned collar, starched and bleached
    constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows
    they're so ****in ordinary white

    don't call me white, don't call me white

    oh, we're better off this way?
    Oh, say what you're gonna say

    so go ahead and label me an asshole
    'cause I can
    accept responsibility for what i've done
    but not for who I am
    don't call me white, don't call me white
    don't call me white, don't call me white


    bad town - Operation Ivy

    They call it a scene I call it disaster
    Down here the kids grow up faster
    Scared they're scared to the bone
    Like a pack of wolves they don't run alone
    One on one they won't look you in the eye
    But when the pack's together there's a battle cry
    I saw it fifteen on one
    When the crowd dispersed the kid was done

    No (no more)
    No (bad town)
    No more bad town

    Yeah down there you gotta have a label
    Just like a cattle in a stable
    Knee jerk reaction I call it violence
    Why speak out when you could be silenced
    Down there on the dance floor
    Too much violence I dont want more
    Down there out on the street
    I can see the air I can see the heat

    No (no more)
    No (bad town)
    No more bad town

    All you need is a beauty queen,
    Not a superstar,
    But everyone is a dream machine,
    All you need is a place to lay your head,
    You goto sleep dreaming about how you would,
    Be a different kind if you thought you could,
    But you come away, The way you are instead.

    I bet a pound to a penny that no1 will kno what song thats from!

    It's a verse that stands out to me above most. My name is a clue! You's still wont get it though!

    The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin
    That's what I said.
    The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
    Or so I have read.
    My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo.
    I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.

    Big Bottom - Spinal Tap

    @byte : Not many people have heard of counting crows, even fewer know the singers name, fair play to you! :) Track called All My Friends.

    You used to go to all the gigs,
    you'd be right up in front,
    but now you just sit at home
    f*ckin up with junk
    out came all the works
    and now yer passin it around
    used to be so generous
    but now every pennies a pound

    NOW SEARCHIN FOR YER SOUL,
    LIKE A NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK
    NOW SEARCHIN FOR YER SOUL
    THERE'S NO LIGHT IN YER DARK EYES

    (ex-cathedra-needles)

    good lyrics are also generally any dk, discharge or anarcho songs too...

    and ferdi-why the f*ck do ye have a rancid picture with op-ivy lyrics-two different bands...rancid suck,op-ivy f*ckin rule and the only time they should bne associated is in the sentence 'boy didn't tim and mat sell out after op-ivy split and they formed that other band rancid'
