"Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one hear,
no ones comes near.
Look at him working,
Darning his socks in the night when nobody's near,
What does he care?...Ah, look at all the loney people..." ---Elenor Rigby, BeatlesThere. If the lyric's too long just trim it okay? You go girl! hehehehe

/*I thought about the army, I dropped out and joined a band instead...
Grew a moustache and a mod, got a job at Chic Filet --
Citing artistic differences, the band broke up in May
And in June reformed without me, and they got a different name
I nuked another Grandma's Apple Pie and hung my head in shame*/Army, by Ben Folds FiveBut that's a bit long. If you're looking for a one-line lyric, here's one of my favourites:"It's coming from the feel that it ain't exactly real; or it's real, but it ain't exactly there."Democracy, by Leonard CohenAnd if you think that the "Lyrics of the Week" isn't working out, perhaps set up a randomizer that displays a different lyric every time the screen loads. That'd be neat... of course, I have no idea how difficult that would be.

Whatever you do, don't drop "Lyric of the Week!" It's a great idea!Unfortunately, I have no submissions at this time.Dammit, song lyrics pop into my head all day long, but when it gets down to crunch time, I blank out!

I'll have to think on this.------------------
Everybody's got something to hide.
Except for me and my monkey.

Yeh. Like, you've got to put 'em somewhere.The following (from Ani DiFranco's 'Blood in the Boardroom') have been chasing themselves around my head for a while; it's kind of a goofy song, but I like the image:they can make straight lines
out of almost anything
except for the line
of my upper lip when it curlsmike

All right, I got one:We were once so close to Heaven
Peter came out and gave us medals,
declaring us the nicest of the damned.They Might Be Giants, "Road Movie to Berlin"------------------

If I hadn't made me, I'd've fallen apart by now.
I won't let 'em make me, it's more than I can allow.
So when I make me, I won't be papier-mache.

"Now I'm walking again, to the beat of a drum,
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart....
Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof,
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief...."--Crowded House, "Don't Dream It's Over"

Colboy · Post by **Colboy** » Sun Feb 25, 2001 3:57 am

Crowded House rulez! Hehehe yeah, Incubus' nice too although I'm not much of a fan. Anyway, you want a weird lyric? Post this up and let's see if you guys can figure this out. (If you're an anime freak you might know where this lyric came from.)"Omoi de ni dakarete imawa okubyoo ni natte
Mitami sae kanjinarenai ikikata e nanderu"
by Cham (this is already a clue)Enjoy!

Another possible set of lyrics for the coming week:"Once in a life, you can find the time to see....
Then you get to take it down, turn around, temporary sanity....
And the mountain disappears without a trace,
And all it took was a sudden leap of faith..." - Kenny Loggins, "Leap of Faith"

"And it's one more day up in the canyon,
And it's one more night in Hollywood,
Been so long since I seen the ocean,
Think I should...."Counting Crows, "A Long December"Always a song I've felt would pull me out of bad moods.

"And you don't seem to understand
A shame, you seemed an honest man
And all those fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear..."
Duvet, by BoaOk so far I've posted 2 anime based songs. Still this song's awesome! I can't get over it! (It's not even Japanese! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif">) Hah, I know ur drooling over this song too Jed! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">------------------
