    Hummmmmmm.... from Black Sabbath - A National Acrobat

    "Just remember love is life
    And hate is living death
    Treat your life for what it's worth
    And live for every breath
    Looking back I've lived and learned
    But now I'm wondering
    Here I wait and only guess
    What this next life will bring"

    There's something inside me
    It's, it's coming out
    I feel like killing you
    Let loose the anger, held back too long
    My blood runs cold

    Through my anatomy, dwells another being
    Rooted in my cortex, a servant to its bidding
    Brutality now becomes my appetite
    Violence is now a way of life
    The sledge my tool to torture
    As it pounds down on your forehead

    Eyes bulging from their sockets
    With every swing of my mallet
    I smash your ****ing head in, until brains seep in
    through the cracks, blood does leak
    distorted beauty, catastrophe
    Steaming slop, splattered all over me

    Lifeless body, slouching dead
    Lecherous abcess, where you once had a head

    Avoiding the prophecy of my new found lust
    You will never live again, soon your life will end
    I'll see you die at my feet, eternally I smash your face
    facial bones collapse as I crack your skull in half

    Crushing, cranial, contents

    Draining the snot, I rip out the eyes
    Squeezing them in my hands nerves are incised
    Peeling the flesh off the bottom of my weapon
    Involuntarily pulpifying facial regions

    Suffer, and then you die
    Torture, pulverized

    At one with my sixth sense, I feel free
    To kill as I please, no one can stop me

    Created to kill, the carnage continues
    Violently reshaping human facial tissue

    Brutality becomes my appetite
    Violence is now a way of life
    The sledge my tool to torture
    As it pounds down on your forehead



    Pure class. :p

    Des'ree, Life

    "I'm afraid of the dark
    Especially when I'm in a park
    When there's no one else around
    Oh I get the shivers,
    I don't wanna see a ghost
    It's the sight that I fear most
    I'd rather have a piece of toast
    Watch the evening news

    Life, oh life
    Oh life, oh life
    Life, oh life
    Oh life, oh life"

    All I can say is.....................................WOW!

    A monkey fart should smell like a banana,

    Should be fairly light and airy,
    When a father farts I hope you think of me

    Also by Mike Barrett

    I was ten years of age when I learned about ****
    with my hand in my pocket I took her to town
    with the pushing and pulling and stroking and cranking
    Once I picked her up, I couldn't put her down

    I was wankin so much that my elbow got sore
    my palms got all hairy and my eyesight got poor
    and I said ah sure what could be better than this
    except if I could give my Willie a kiss

    My father once caught me pulling my toffee
    and floggin my frog, while out in the bog
    He said for this transgression you must go to confession
    and tell all your sins to old Father McNab

    I said Father I'm sorry for stretching my Larry
    and for beating the Bishop to beat the old band
    he said say ten Our Fathers and twenty Hail Marys
    and an Act of Contrition for the sins of your hand

    But as I was praying my hand started straying
    and I felt the sensation vibratin' my rocks
    and I reached for my ballocks and had one more frolic
    before I vacated the confessional box

    c'mon and
    gimme all your lovin'
    or I will kill you
    put one through your head
    gimme all your lovin'
    or I will kill you
    and cry when you're dead

    it's amazing what a gun to the head can do
    my baby loves me now as hard as he can
    my methods may be suspect
    but you gotta get love however you can

    I have lost my mind!

    "Masters of War" by Bob Dylan. Lines like 'for killing me baby, unborn unnamed, you ain't worth the blood that runs in your veins'
    or
    "And I hope that you die
    And your death'll come soon
    I will follow your casket
    In the pale afternoon
    And I'll watch while you're lowered
    Down to your deathbed
    And I'll stand o'er your grave
    'Til I'm sure that you're dead"

    'The Busy Girl buys Beauty' by Billy Bragg

    (excerpt)

    What will you do
    When you wake up one morning
    To find that God's made you plain
    In a beautiful person's world?
    And all those quick recipes
    Have let you down
    And you're 20&1/2; and not yet engaged
    Will you go look for the boy who says
    I love you let's get married and have kids

    The busy girl buys beauty
    The pretty girl buys style
    And the simple girl buys
    What she's told to buy
    Through the brightly lit eyes
    Of the glossy romance of fashion

    Seven Worlds will Collide

    Sing me to sleep
    I'm tired and I
    I want to go to bed
    Sing me to sleep
    Sing me to sleep
    And then leave me alone
    Don't try to wake me in the morning
    'Cause I will be gone
    Don't feel bad for me
    I want you to know
    Deep in the cell of my heart
    I will feel so glad to go
    Sing me to sleep
    Sing me to sleep
    I don't want to wake up
    On my own anymore
    Sing to me
    Sing to me
    I don't want to wake up
    On my own anymore
    Don't feel bad for me
    I want you to know
    Deep in the cell of my heart
    I really want to go
    There is another world
    There is a better world
    Well, there must be
    Well, there must be
    Well, there must be
    Well, there must be
    Well ...
    Bye bye
    Bye bye
    Bye ...

    That and athlete's tourist.."I've seen Christmas lights reflect in your eyes"

    And the pixies, broken face "I was talking to preachy-preach about kissy-kiss He bought me a soda He bought me a soda He bought me a soda and he tried to molest me in the parking lot
    Ah ya gotta love it.

    Deadsy are such an underrated band its criminal. Lyrics are amazing

    "Cruella"
    How the story rolls
    Magic's taught and history's told
    A glory hole
    Which through gazed her eyes of gold
    Those veins run cold
    Mystery's wife evades her soul
    Scaring to and fro

    Tearing through the snow
    As she makes her darling coat
    Hoarding all the shawls
    Now her evil highness rose

    Kind of like Shakespearean prose
    Without the rose
    Avid as she sows
    Cruella grows
    Horace and Jasper stole
    So let the horror flow

    Black and white in hair
    Elegantly gaunt in frame
    A boney flare
    Which christened Cruel with creepy grace
    Always smokey air
    Circling one lurch, Hepburn face
    In her head which filled the space
    Was the one hellacious taste
    As she aims her fate
    Nothing flees her sore embrace

    As the biggest mistake that Cruel ever made
    Was when she left her cave and started to reign
    As the love for her fades
    Our feelings won't change
    So my darling Cruella
    We see through the grey

    In her cold glare
    Loveliest and rare
    Frightened you'll soon wear
    And this elegantly haunting is so fair
    Theres no reason to part from her cold lair
    She has all of the loveliest and rare
    Things which frighten at first
    But she'll soon wear

    She's a regional spark from this nowhere
    And this elegant loveliness so fair
    Taking strolls through the dark by the moon's glare
    As she listens for barks in the night air
    Always searching for marks on the white hair

    Cruel, you're so fair

    I prefer the original....

    Cruella DeVille
    Cruella DeVille
    If she doesn't scare you
    No evil thing will
    To see her is to
    Take a sudden chill
    Cruella, Cruella DeVille

    The curl of her lips
    The ice in her stare
    All innocent children
    Had better beware
    She's like a spider waiting
    For the kill
    Look out for Cruella DeVille

    At first you think
    Cruella is the devil
    But after time has worn
    Away the shock
    You come to realize
    You've seen her kind of eyes
    Watching you from underneath
    A rock!
    This vampire bat
    This inhuman beast
    She ought to be locked up
    And never released
    The world was such
    A wholesome place until
    Cruella, Cruella DeVille
