    Post random lyrics here, now!!

    "Changes" -Tupac

    [1]
    Come on come on
    I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
    is life worth living should I blast myself?
    I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
    my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
    Cops give a damn about a negro
    pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero
    Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
    one less hungry mouth on the welfare
    First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
    give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
    It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
    2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
    I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
    unless we share with each other
    We gotta start makin' changes
    learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
    and that's how it's supposed to be
    How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
    I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
    but things changed, and that's the way it is

    [Bridge w/ changing ad libs]
    Come on come on
    That's just the way it is
    Things'll never be the same
    That's just the way it is
    aww yeah
    [Repeat]

    [2]
    I see no changes all I see is racist faces
    misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
    We under I wonder what it takes to make this
    one better place, let's erase the wasted
    Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
    'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
    and only time we chill is when we kill each other
    it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
    And although it seems heaven sent
    We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
    It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
    the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
    But some things will never change
    try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
    Now tell me what's a mother to do
    bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
    You gotta operate the easy way
    "I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
    sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
    Well hey, well that's the way it is

    [Bridge]

    [Talking:]
    We gotta make a change...
    It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
    Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
    and let's change the way we treat each other.
    You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
    what we gotta do, to survive.

    [3]
    And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
    It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East
    Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
    so the police can bother me
    And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
    But now I'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you
    Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
    crack you up and pimp slap you up
    You gotta learn to hold ya own
    they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
    But tell the cops they can't touch this
    I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
    That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
    my mama didn't raise no fool
    And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
    & I never get to lay back
    'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
    some buck that I roughed up way back
    comin' back after all these years
    rat-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh

    [Bridge 'til fade]

    ^I Like that song



    Mexico by Incubus

    You could see me reaching
    So why couldn't you have met me half way?
    You could see me bleeding
    And you would not put pressure on the wound
    You only think about yourself...you only think about yourself
    You better bend before I go
    On the next train to Mexico
    You could see my breathing
    But you still kept your hand over my mouth
    You could feel me seething
    But you just turned your nose up in the air
    You only think about yourself...you only think about yourself
    You better bend before I go
    On the next train to Mexico

    its just freight train coming your way

    for like the past week I can't seem to get this song out of my head


    "Badfish" by Sublime

    When you grab a hold of me
    You tell me that I'll never be set free
    I'm a parasite,
    creep and crawl I step into the night.
    Two pints of booze
    Tell me are you a badfish too? Are you a badfish too?
    Ain't got no money to spend
    I know the night will never end
    Lord knows I'm weak
    Won't somebody get me off of this reef

    Baby your a big blue whale
    Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
    I swim but wish I never learned
    The water's too polluted with germs
    I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
    Grab the reef underneath my bed
    Ain't got no quarrels with god Ain't got no time to grow old
    Lord knows I'm weak
    Won't somebody get me off of this reef

    Ain't got no quarrels with God Ain't got no time to grow old
    Lord knows I'm weak
    Won't somebody get me off of this reef

    Radiohead - Just


    can't get the stink off,
    he's been hanging around for days.
    comes like a comet,
    suckered you but not your friends.
    one day he'll get to you,
    teach you how to be a holy cow.

    don't get my sympathy hanging out the 15th floor.
    you've changed the locks 3 times,
    he still comes reeling through the door.
    and soon he'll get to you,
    teach you how to get to purest hell.

    you do it to yourself you do
    and that's what really hurts is
    you do it to yourself just you,
    you and no-one else
    you do it to yourself.

    "Astronomy"- Blue Oyster Cult (The best song you will ever hear in rock/heavy metal)



    The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
    Out at you from their hiding place
    Like acid and oil on a madman's face
    His reason tends to fly away

    Like lesser birds on the four winds
    Like silver scrapes in May
    Now the sands become a crust
    And most of you have gone away

    Come Susy dear, let's take a walk
    Just out there upon the beach
    I know you'll soon be married
    And you want to know where the winds come from

    Well it's never said at all
    On the map that Carrie reads
    Behind the clock back there you know
    At the four winds bar

    Hey, hey, hey, hey
    Four winds at the four winds bar
    Two doors locked and windows barred
    One door let to take you in
    The other one just mirrors it
    Hey, hey, hey, hey

    In hellish glare and inference
    The other one's a duplicate
    The queenly flux, eternal light
    Or the light that never warms (repeat twice)

    The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
    Out at you from their hiding place
    Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
    Would find themselves at the four winds bar

    It's the nexus of the crisis
    The origin of storms
    Just the place to hopelessly
    Encounter time and then came me
    Hey, hey, hey, hey

    Call me Desdenova, eternal light
    These gravely digs of mine
    Will surely prove a sight
    And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent

    Astronomy...a star (repeat indefinitely)

    When she walks
    She swings her arms, instead of her hips
    When she talks she moves her mouth, instead of her lips
    I've waited for her for so long
    I've waited for her for so long
    I've wondered if I could hang on
    I've wondered if I could hang on

    "Let me go," she said
    "Let me go," she said
    Let me go and I will want you more
    Let me go, let me go
    Let me go and I will want you

    When she wants
    She wants the sun instead of the moon
    When she sees
    She sees the stars inside of her room
    I've waited for her for so long
    I've waited for her for so long
    I've wondered if I could hang on
    I've wondered if I could hang on

    "Let me go," she said
    "Let me go," she said
    Let me go and I will want you more
    "Let me go," she said
    Let me go
    Let me go, and I will want you

    "Let me go," she said
    "Let me go," she said
    "Let me go," she said
    Let me go, let me go

    DOGMA - KMFDM

    All we want os a head-rush
    All we want is to get out of our skin for a while
    We have nothing to lose cause we don't have anything
    Anything we want anyway
    We used to hate people
    Now we just make fun of them
    It's more effective that way

    We don't live we just scratch on day to day
    With nothing but match-books and sarcasm in our pockets
    And all we're waiting for is for something worth waiting for

    Let's admit America gets the celbrities we deserve
    Let's stop saying don't quote me
    cause if no one quotes you
    You probably haven't said a thing worth saying

    We need something to kill the pain of all that nothing inside
    We all just want to die, a little bit

    We fear that pop-culture is the only kind of culture we're ever gonna have
    We want to stop watching TV
    Stop reading magazines
    Stop caring about Hollywood
    But we're addicted to the things we hate

    We don't run Washington and no one really does
    Ask not what you can do for your country
    Ask what your country did to you

    We owe so much money we're not broke we're broken
    We're so poor we can't even pay attention
    The only reason you're still alive is because someone has decided to let you live

    So what do you want
    You want to be famous? and rich? and happy?
    But you're terrified you have nothing to offer this world
    Nothing to say, and no way to say it
    But you can say it in three languages

    You are more than the sum of what you consume
    Desire is not an occupation
    You are ultimately thrilled and desperate
    Sky high and fucked

    Let's stop praying for someone to say us
    And start saving ourselves
    Let's stop this and start over
    Let's go out
    Let's keep going

    This is you life, this is you fucking life
    We need something to kill the pain of all that nothing inside

    Someone is writing down your mistakes
    Someone is documenting your downfall

    Cckmp (Cocaine Cannot Kill My Pain)
    by Steve Earle



    Cocaine cannot kill my pain
    Like a freight train through my vein
    Cocaine cannot kill my pain
    Whiskey got no hold on me
    Left them chains in Tennessee
    Whiskey got no hold on me

    Don't come knockin' on my door
    Even that won't work no more
    Don't come knockin' on my door

    Heroin is the only thing
    The only gift the darkness brings
    Heroin is the only thing

    Guess you'd best leave me alone
    At least until these blues have gone
    Guess you'd best leave me alone

    Box of Rain-Grateful Dead

    Look out of any window
    any morning, any evening, any day
    Maybe the sun is shining
    birds are winging or
    rain is falling from a heavy sky -
    What do you want me to do,
    to do for you to see you through?
    this is all a dream we dreamed
    one afternoon long ago
    Walk out of any doorway
    feel your way, feel your way
    like the day before
    Maybe you'll find direction
    around some corner
    where it's been waiting to meet you -
    What do you want me to do,
    to watch for you while you're sleeping?
    Well please don't be surprised
    when you find me dreaming too




    Look into any eyes
    you find by you, you can see
    clear through to another day
    I know it's been seen before
    through other eyes on other days
    while going home --
    What do you want me to do,
    to do for you to see you through?
    It's all a dream we dreamed
    one afternoon long ago



    Walk into splintered sunlight
    Inch your way through dead dreams
    to another land
    Maybe you're tired and broken
    Your tongue is twisted
    with words half spoken
    and thoughts unclear
    What do you want me to do
    to do for you to see you through
    A box of rain will ease the pain
    and love will see you through
    Just a box of rain -
    wind and water -
    Believe it if you need it,
    if you don't just pass it on
    Sun nd shower -
    Wind and rain -
    in and out the window
    like a moth before a flame
    It's just a box of rain
    I don't know who put it there
    Believe it if you need it
    or leave it if you dare
    But it's just a box of rain
    or a ribbon for your hair
    Such a long long time to be gone
    and a short time to be there

    3 Inches of Blood - Deadly Sinners

    Don't walk the cold and ruthless streets
    They drain the life from all they meet
    The servants crying underground
    Smelling mortal blood like hounds
    As you crawl the sewer pipes
    Deadly sinners set to strike
    As you walk around the bend
    You'll be dead right there where you stand

    Flash of iron, leather, spikes, and swords
    Mighty warriors with metal on their side
    Enemies of metal, your death is our reward
    Triumphant victory when you bring the steel to life

    Deadly sinners
    Victory when you bring the steel to life

    Crushing the light, stalking the night
    Deadly sinners always win

    Kill the tyrant's endless conquest
    With no mercy, straight for his heart
    Bloodlust will overtake anger and violence
    Without warning, lightning strikes in the dark
    Lightning strikes

    Flash or iron, leather, spikes and swords
    Those mighty warriors with metal on their side
    Enemies of metal, your death is our reward
    Triumphant victory when you bring the steel to life

    Deadly sinners
    Victory when you bring the steel to life

    Ruling the night, winning the fight
    Taking it all right to the end
    Winning the night, ruling the fight
    Take one last step before you die
    Ruling the night, winning the fight
    Taking it to the end

    ManoWar - The Gods Made Heavy Metal

    In the beginning there was silence and darkness
    All across the earth
    Then came the wind and a hole in the sky
    Thunder and lightning came crashing down
    Hit the earth and split the ground
    Fire burned high in the sky

    From down below fire melted the stone
    The ground shook and started to pound

    The gods made heavy metal and they saw that is was good
    They said to play it louder than Hell
    We promised that we would
    When losers say it's over with you know that it's a lie
    The gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die

    We are the true believers
    It's our turn to show the world
    In the fire of heavy metal we were burned
    It's more than our religion it's the only way to live
    But the enemies of metal we can't forgive

    Cause we believe in the power and the might
    And the gods who made metal are with us tonight

    The gods made heavy metal and they saw that is was good
    They said to play it louder than Hell
    We promised that we would
    When losers say it's over with you know that it's a lie
    The gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die

    We believe in the power and the might
    And the gods who made metal are with us tonight

    We're here tonight for heavy metal are you ready in the hall
    They have chosen us and we have heard the call
    Gonna tear the roof off with our sound

    Crack the walls and shake the ground
    Fight tonight for metal one and all

    Cause we believe in the power and the might
    And the gods who made metal are with us tonight

    The gods made heavy metal and they saw that is was good
    They said to play it louder than Hell
    We promised that we would
    When losers say it's over with you know that it's a lie
    The gods made heavy metal and it's never gonna die
