Lyrical Appreciation

Because this place has been a tad bare since I've left college, despite bieng free, lets post some of my favourite lyrics of the moment;

Love - Maybe The People Would Be The Times or
Between the Clark and Hilldale

Wrong or right they come here just the same
Telling everyone about their games
And if you think it obsolete
Then you go back across the street
Yeah, street, hey hey


Michael Jackson (RIP) - Billie Jean:

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round


Titus Andronicus - Titus Andronicus:

Throw my guitar down on the floor
No one cares what I've got to say any more
I didn't come here to be damned with faint praise
I'll write my masterpiece some other day
(Fuck everything, fuck me)


Manic Street Preachers - Peeled Apples:

A series of images against you and me
Trespass your torment if you are what you want to be

I once impersonated a shop-work dummy
The Levi jean will always be stronger than an Uzi



The Jam - Down In The Tube Station at Midnight

Behind me
Whispers in the shadows - gruff blazing voices
Hating, waiting
Hey boy they shout - have you got any money?
And I said - I've a little money and a take away curry,
I'm on my way home to my wife.
Shel'l be lining up the cutlery
You know she's expecting me
Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
