Favorite lyrics
This might be a re-post (wouldn't surprise me). But I just heard The Doors on the radio! I hate nickel and dime rhyme lyrics. So I appreciate Jim Morrison poetic twists on language.
One of my fav's . . . from Moonlight Drive!
Let’s swim to the moon, ah ha
Let’s climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin’ that the
City sleeps to hide
Let’s swim out tonight, love
It’s our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive................ :rock:

Yeah, the Morrison had alot of great lyrics, very poetic stuff for the most part. Here's something a little newer and a little darker:
In Defence of Our Good Names:
Returning to solace
So sweet like honeysuckle on the tongue
The sound of silence blesses my ears
Enveloping like the earth I will one day lie in
Metropolis is bad to wither the soul
Roaring concrete and steel washes you in blood.
So you point and laugh
Provincial ain't so bad.
Take me down to where I belong
To rust in rivers.
I do not covet any man's life
I know my place all to well
One man's paradise is another man's living Hell.
To each their own
Generations ago made this place my own
The roots are deep and strong
Carry them wherever I go.

Re: Favorite lyrics
Listening to the radio on the way home from work today, it occured to me that I forgot entirely about what may be (some of) my favorite lyrics ever. I was shamed!
So shamed, in fact, that it warranted a consecutive post in a four-day-stale thread.
To wit:
"Now, Muriel plays piano / Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her / And they asked me if I would
Do a little number / And I sang with all my might
And she said, "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?"
And I said, "Ma'am, I am tonight!"
Marc Cohn. Walking In Memphis.
What a great line.

Easily my favorite lyrics
Con te partiro
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivr?
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono pi?
Con te io li rivivro.

Tom Petty Roll Another Joint ( You dont know how it feels)
Let me run with you, tonight
I'll take you on, a moonlight ride
There's someone I used to see
But she don't give a damn for me
But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint

Re: Favorite lyrics
Damn it, I haven't been a teen for years. But I still have angst! Heard this one today and it just got my blood pumping.
Cracker :rock:
I don't know what the world may need,
but I'm sure as hell that is starts with me.
And that's a wisdom,
I've laughed at.
I don't know what the world may want,
but a good stiff drink it surely don't.
So I think I'll go and fix myself a tall one.
Cause, what the world needs now
is a new kind of tension.
Cause the old one just bores me to death.
Cause, what the world needs now
is another folk singer
like I need a hole in my head.
I don't know what the world may need,
but a V8 engine is a good start for me.
Think I'll drive to find a place,
to be surly.
I don't know what the world may want,
but some words of wisdom could comfort us.
Think I'll leave that up to someone wiser.
Cause, what the world needs now
are some true words of wisdom
like La La La La La
Cause, what the world needs now
is another folk singer
like I need a hole in my head.
I don't know what the world may need,
and I never grasped your complexities.
I'd be happy just to get your attention.
And, I don't know what the world may want,
but your long, sweet body lying next
to mine could certainly raise my spirits.
Cause what the world needs now
is a new Frank Sinatra
so I can get you in bed.
Cause what the world needs now
is another folk singer
like I need a hole in my head.
:rock:

Think of me as days pass us by.
Shards of glass
Skies of gold
Steal my breath
Blood runs cold
Violet waves
Oceans blue
All my love
Lost in you

Re: Favorite lyrics
This is Aesop Rock off of Def Jux (Definitive Juxtapositions) Records:
an intro to his song Drawbridge. . .
This is not your ordinary ballad
With a perfect little bow around the middle
And a black man on a white horse
Or a white man on a black horse
It's got all these tired parts where
We don't even sing at random
Princess, raise the drawbridge
We don't serve your kind
It ends where it begins
And the beginning isn't pretty
Can't forget that not-so-perfect
Bow around the middle ('round the middle, 'round the middle...)
Har-bour [said like har-bow]
And it goes a little something like this..
