i think we have one of these in some of the other sections, so why not here?

"and in the end, the love we take
is equal to the love...we make"

"they're sharing a drink they call lonliness
but it's better than drinking alone"

"don't just stand there; bust a move"

"our lives are better left to chance
i could have missed the pain
but i'd of had to miss the dance"

i'll add mo later

the fire dies on its own
leaving us to ourselves we're not exactly alone
i know that something is out there waiting
anticipation has grown
air is black as can be
can't even see my hand that's in front of me
i'm overhearing the whisper
they won't escape...

the day I learn to fly , I'm never coming down
on perfect I'll rise through the layers of the clouds

and from there I see the neon grids of cities
and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
but the hours crawled by and no one came
so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
to take me from this place... from you

I see myself inside, you dream the dreams that I do,
you're still searching for these answers, they're not inside your wrist

and from there I see the neon grids of cities
and six million people that keep their fires lit

I threw a party in my name
but the hours crawled by and no one came
so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
to take me from this place... from you

I close my eyes as the curtains draw,
I thought I heard your voice but I thought wrong,
'cause you're not there anymore,
no you're not there anymore

and so I lift my chin and the show goes on,
the sky is listening, the stars all sing along,
but you're not there anymore,
and I just can't care anymore

old habits reappear
fighting the fear of fear
growing conspiracy
myself is after me
frayed ends of sanity
hear them calling
hear them calling meeeeeeeee

wanna let it burn
wanna let it burn
wanna let it burn wanna wanna let it buuur-uurn

beachbum #42 beachbumOG 2002

Eric's room get's too small one night
he takes his whole apartment outside, down
at his desk he sits and writes
under a streetlight

One starry night
just like tonight when these city lights
seem like candlelight
one starry night
everything will be alright

on the steps someone plays guitar
carrying into the darkness far off
a saxaphone begins following along
writing the same song

One starry night
just like tonight when these city lights
seem like candlelight
one starry night
everything will be alright

Angela hears the music play
sees eric and suddenly the lights change
dare, she let her heart take this one chance
she says 'do you want to dance?'

skaorsk8 #42.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passengers side of his bests friend's ride

GOOD TUNE!

fivezero #40 fivezeroOG 2003

baby im afraid of a lot of things
but i aint scared of loving you
baby i know your afraid of a lot of things
but don't be scared of love
cause people will say all kinds of things
that don't mean a dang to me
cause all i see is what's in front of me
and thats you

well, ive been dragged all over the place
ive taken hits time just don't erase
and baby i can see you've been messed with too
but that don't mean your loving days are through
cause people will say all kinds of things
that don't mean a dang to me
cause all i see is what's in front of me
and thats you

-Yeah Yeah Yeahs, 'hidden song'

ophelia #39 opheliaOG 2003

remember this?..

Three important rules for breaking up
Don't put off breaking up when you know you want to
Prolonging the situation only makes it worse
Tell him honestly, simply, kindly, but firmly
Don't make a big production
Don't make up an elaborate story
This will help you avoid a big tear jerking scene
If you wanna date other people say so
Be prepared for the boy to feel hurt and rejected
Even if you've gone together for only a short time,
And haven't been too serious,
There's still a feeling of rejection
When someone says she preferres the company of others
To your exclusive company,
But if you're honest, and direct,
And avoid making a flowery emotional speech when you brake the news,
The boy will respect you for your frankness,
And honestly he'll apeciate the kind of straight foward manner
In which you told him your decision
Unless he's a real jerk or a cry baby you will remain friends

I'm head of the class
'm popular
I'm a quarter back
I'm popular
My mom says I'm a catch
I'm popular
I'm never last picked
I got a cheerleader chick

Being attractive is the most important thing there is
If you wanna catch the biggest fish in your pond
You have to be as attractive as possible
Make sure to keep your hair spotless and clean
Wash it at least every two weeks
Once every two weeks
And if you see Jhonny football hero in the hall
Tell him he played a great game
Tell him you like his article in the newspaper

I'm the party star
I'm popular
I've got my own car
I'm popular
I'll never get caught
I'm popular
I make football bets
I'm a teachers pet.

I propose we support a one month limit on going steady
I think It will keep you both more able to deal with weird situation
And get to know more people
I think if you're ready to go out with Johnny
Now's the time to tell him about your one month limit
He wont mind he'll apreciate your fresh look on dating
And once you've dated someone else you can date him again
I'm sure he'll like it
Everyone will appreciate it
You so novel what a good idea
You can keep your time to your self
You don't need date insurance
You can go out with whoever you want to
Every boy, every boy, in the whole world could be yours
If you'll just listen to my plan
THE TEENAGE GUIDE TO POPULARITY

Powder Puff football is when the girls play and the guys cheerlead. I never got to play cause all those little preppy girls were playing and took complete control of it.

socalgal #36 socalgalOG 2003

Two of my favs:
MY WAY - Ole Blue Eyes
And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.

I’ve lived a life that’s full.
I’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way....

U2 - Red Hill Mining Town
From father to son
The blood runs thin
See faces frozen still
Against the wind
The seam is split
The coal face cracked
The lines are long
There's no going back
Through hands of steel
And heart of stone
Our labour day
Has come and gone
Yeah you leave me holding on
In Red Hill Town
See lights go down, I'm...
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
The glass is cut
The bottle run dry
Our love runs cold
In the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear
Injured in doubt
I can lose myself
You I can't live without

#35 classic1OG 2004

On the Jazz Level:

Life is lonely again and only last year
Everything seemed so sure
Now life is awful again
A trough full of hearts could only be a bore

A week in Paris could ease the bite of it
All I care is to smile in spite of it

I'll forget you, I will while yet you are still
Burning inside my brain... romance is mush
Stifling those who strive

So I'll live a lush life in some small dive
And there I'll be
While I rot with the rest. of those Whose lives are lonely too.
.Johnney Hartman w/John Coltrane or Sinatra
..Lush life.
You have to buy the album and hear the song for yourself. My reprise can't capture it's shear splindidness..

Hip Hop Favs:

I an't no joke, i used to let the mic smoke.
Now I slam it when i'm done and make sure it's broke.
When i'm done, no one gets on, cause i won't let,
Nobody press-up, and mess-up, the scene I set...Rakim

Run on the track like Jesse Owens
Broke the record flowin, wit out any knowin'
that my wordplay won the 300 meter relay
it's on once i grab the batton from the dj
an athlete with his iron cleat in the ground
wireless brother, who sprint off the gun sound
the best time now still 7.0
Swift flow, made the camera man's clothes blow...The GZA/Wu tang

I start to think, and then I sink, into the paper, like i was ink.
When I'm writing i'm trapped in between the lines. I escape, when i finish the rhyme..Rakim

Its only natural, acutual facts are thrown at you, the impact will blow trees back and crack statues! Inspecta Deck/Wu Tang

ophelia #35.1 opheliaOG 2003

i've always liked instrumental/straight ahead jazz sooo much more than jazz w/vocals...but that's cool though

C
#35.1.1 classic1OG 2004

I would say that i do also. The thing is, I love John Coltrane. I can listen to "Love Supreme" or "My favorite things over & over again. One day I thought..."It sure would be interesting to hear someone do vocals over Coltrane". Then I came across that album from my father. Johnny Hartman has a very laid back, dark room, acoustic, mellow, Cognac in one hand, ciggarette in the other type sound. It's beautiful. It's the colab of the two great traditionalist of that era.

Knee deep in static
I hear you breaking up
I'm breaking up
I guess we're breaking up
You're not the other woman
You're just another(woman)
Another hobby for a guy like me.
(haha, those last couple lines are so blatenly messed up that it ends up being funny..that first part is clever though, how he uses not being able to hear somebody clearly on a walkie talkie, to a communication breakdown in a relationshiop resulting in a break up)

thefunkyfresh #32 thefunkyfreshFounder

Its matt and the jessman hanging in a tree
and we're R-A-P-P-I-N-G
first comes fame, then comes the money
then come the girlies who are sweeter than honey
the next man on the mic is big bad J,
so c'mon baby J tell em what ya got to say...
well my name is Jesse and I'm so great,
I got no money and I got no date,
well ok, I just took back what i said
im a stupid fool with a big fat head,
some say i'm crazy, but i'm just lazy,
call me what you want but it really dont phase me.
If you don't like my rhymes I'll tell you where to stick it
my name's matty k and i know how to kick it
I wrote some rhymes and my talent shines
my rappin dont just happen but its all by design...

ophelia #30 opheliaOG 2003

I'm soo amused by this lyric
So is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause I've seen more spine on jellyfish
I've seen more guts on eleven-year-old kids
Have another drink and drive yourself home
I hope there's ice on all the roads
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
and again when your head goes through the windshield

and this too, is mighty cool
Whatever poisons in this bottle
will leave me broken, sore and stiff
But it's the genie at the bottom who I'm sucking at,
he owes me one last wish
So here's a present to let you know I still exist
I hope the next boy that you kiss has something terribly contagious on his lips

And even if her plane crashes tonight
she'll find some way to disappoint me,
by not burning in the wreckage,
or drowning at the bottom of the sea
Jess, I still taste you, and thus reserve my right to hate you
And all this empty space that you create

#30.3 toxicgirlOG 2003

That second song just make me think of the song "My Girlfriends Dead"-by The Vandals. Mean song with a super upbeat sound.

thatdarngirl #30.3.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I looove that song. Makes me laugh so hard.

I say it's lukemia..or sometimes bolemia..or a great big truck ran her over, and chopped off her head.

T
#30.3.1.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

You are fearless, haha. I wasn't sure about the bulimia part so I decided not to type the whole song. The part about decapitation could be have been considered offensive as well. You possess the backbone I lack. I am inspired by you.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

How wonderful, you are inspired by my offensiveness!

"I'm thinking of your wide open eyes, smiling as they feed the nerves that push the field of silver and the colorful lines, that only you could see, like only you could do.
I'm picturing a forcep in ice, that you would see if you could reach and reconnect the ends into the delicate threads, but I just sit and wait for a blip to break the perfect little thin green line."

"You swore the earth was round, and you said that there was no upside down.
I hit the starship's left, let the parallax flip like you showed me in the lighthouse.
I did the math and it came up ones and O's."

"So we ride whales and drag race time and I draw fires from the traces of trilobite hives.
You sleep like God inside her womb.
And you see clearly to the silicon wasteland they left inside my mind"

"She said you can find a place inside my heart if you will stay, and I need you back here on the ground.
It's lift off, lift off again.
She's pissed off, pissed off again.

Moonlight brings me back again to stay, and I know if she had a way I'd always be through.
Tethered to a glass ring she keeps beside the phone, and never ever stepping out into.

I'm thinking of a number between everything and two."

I AM ROMANTICALLY IN LOVE WITH HUM!!!!!!!!

And when you're really depressed:

"the wire that holds the cork
that keeps the anger in
gives way
and suddenly it's day again
the sun is in the east
even though the day is done

and as the windshield melts
my tears evaporate
leaving only charcoal to defend
finally i understand
the feelings of the few
ashes and diamonds
foe and friend
we were all equal in the end"

Compliment what she does
Send her roses just because
If it's violins she loves
Let them play
Dedicate her favourite song
And hold her closer all night long
Love her today
Find one hundred ways

Dont forget, there could be
An old lover in her memory
If you need her so much more
Why don't you say?
Maybe she has it in her mind
That she's just wasting her time
Ask her to stay
Find one hundred ways

Being cool won't help you keep a love warm
You'll just blow your only chance
Take the time to open up your heart
That's the secret of romance

Sacrifice if you care
Buy her some moonlight to wear
If it's one more star she wants
Go all the way
In your arms tonight, she'll reflect
That she owes you the sweetest of debts
If she wants to pay
Find one hundred ways

Love her today
Find one hundred ways

#19.1.2 toxicgirlOG 2003

for some reason, the verse about using the rod will always make me laugh. and as if corporal punishment mentioned in song isn't enough, you have to sing it in a low serious tone.

in retaliation, i always liked the verse about fathers do not be exasperating your children. haha yeah.

But I'm glad cause they feed her the fuel that she need for the fire
To burn and it's burnin and she has returned

WORD!!!!

i hope this is a good thing....? =D?

#19.1.2.2 dgiaimoOG 2003

I remember one brother bringing out in a talk once that when a shepherd "uses the rod" it is rarely to beat the animal, but rather to guide it in the correct direction, so that verse is really talking about gentle correction and not just corporal punishment.

I really like Ephesians 6:4 as well. Actually, my dad had the bible highlights on the Galatians-Ephesians reading a few weeks ago, and when he asked what verses we appreciated about the reading I almost raised my hand to say Ephesians 6:4, but I managed to restrain myself.

esprit15d #19.2 esprit15dOG 2003

While your'e doing Kingdom Melodies, I like the songs that manage to include lyrics from the Bible almost in there original form,,,like:

"There was a time when I was youthful,
But now I'm old," King David said,
"But never have I seen teh righteous
Forsaken or his seed beg bread."

or

"Christ Jesus show the way
That we to God should pray
O, let your name be sanctified
Your heavenly kingdom come
Your will on earth be done
May daily our bread be supplied."

also the victory song is an example

and there's also a song about Ruth and Naomi, and I get chills when we sing it, but I haven't memorized it.

forrestina #19.2.1 forrestinaOG 2002

i know parts of that one and i'm not sure if they are from the same verse:
Naomi encouraged Ruth to leave
Even though the parting would her grieve
May we likewise show such steadfastness
Firmly cleave to God and righteousness

i like this one:
Sing praise to Jehovah
For he has become highly exalted
the horse and its rider
he's pitched into the sea

tesoro #19.2.2 tesoroOG 2001

song #13 i love..one of the baptism songs..

and song #108-"just as the rain that falls from the heavens..."
the victory song is great..

oh, and the one that says "like bees being molested" haha..had to fit that in.

i like the song "Make the truth your own" except i never liked singing the part about "controlling your body members" #1 it kinda grosses me out..#2 it reminds me of someone having an epileptic fit and cant control themselves.

forrestina #19.2.2.1 forrestinaOG 2002

i love all the loud ones:
SING SING SING!!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Yeah..I like all the ones with catchy chorus' that everyone basically shouts it.

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003

if you get a lot of women (especially if they can sing well) to sing this, it sounds like bells ringing. Very pretty.

tinser #19.2.2.2 tinserOG 2002

i really like the we are roman cath-o-lic song

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

HAHAHHAHAHAHA

i texted you and liz while we were singing "that" song at the convention..

(sing to the tune of.."we're jehovah's witnesses" it fits alarmingly well)

hahahhaahaha

ophelia #19.2.2.3 opheliaOG 2003

yo that song that talks about molestin' bees is CRAZY

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

one of my FAVE words in spanish "molestar" to annoy

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003

uhhh....yeah...how does one molest bees? now, i'm not looking for details here, but is it like, ya take a bat and hit thier hive?

#19.2.3 dgiaimoOG 2003

The victory song has to be one of my facorite of all the Kingdom songs. I just love minor keys.

esprit15d #19.2.3.1 esprit15dOG 2003

I used to study with (and still call on) two young girls, and they loved that song, and memorized it.

J
#19.3 jollycandymanOG 2001

Doesn't it seem like our parents always sung the rod part with extra conviction and joyousness. I think one time, the parents in my hall, had the tape rewound so they could sing that part agian

forrestina #19.3.1 forrestinaOG 2002

my dad always moves his hand back and forth in a spanking gesture hahahah

J
#19.3.1.1 jollycandymanOG 2001

haha, my mom would actually spank me. It was extremely awkward

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

during the song? everytime? i'd sit with other people.

next door is the big house owned by the joneses
next to the little brown shack that's owned by me
i get so mad every time that i see 'em
so i guess deep down that's called ENvy

i walk out every mornin' for to drive in my car
the ol' horse and buggy, i should say it is
com-pared to the new car of mr. jones
when my car is 12 years older than his

but i'll live in my house and i'll be alright
cuz the old cadillac still gets me around
put on the phonograph and listen to a song
entitled "don't let the joneses get you down"

(problems) jealousy
(problems) envious
(problems) we got too many
problems of the world today -ay -ay

When you blink do you only find the misery between the lines? Then take my hand and walk with me.-The Lost Souls

I can feel you dreaming of me and the time when our steps are retraced and I creep through the twilight to that hidden place, beyond the lonely, I'll meet you. ?Wester

To great disbelief there is somewhere we belong.- Porphyria

I'll die drowned by your standards. -Malleus Maleficarum

My skin is singed but it heals my heart and with glowing pride I'll wear my scars. I'm honored by your hatred. -Malleus Maleficarum

A permanent solution to a temporary problem. Before I'd lay me down to rest, I'd throw away everything to live. -Narrative Of Soul Against Soul

All by myself, I'm alone in such poor company. The deeper I think, the deeper I seem to sink.-The Last Kiss

The more I show the less you'll want to know. -The Last Kiss

What if I could go to sleep for days, would you count the hours, or would your restlessness consume fading memories of me? ?At a Glance

We've got a problem? First of all there is no "we", I'm detached from you completely. I've got a problem. You tell lies to my friends and think it won't get back to me. ?He Who Laughs Last

I'm not someone that you should run to. I've been, often, as broken as you, more often than you'd like me to. If I could heal all the pain that you feel, I'd gladly cure all that ails you inside. Unfortunately, I have no degree and I can not anesthetize. I wish that I could help you. I can't even help myself. ?Wake Up Call

What was it you were thinking, or were you even thinking at all? When I think of what you thought of me, I take offense; and I'm appalled that you could discount all I love so easily. Living your life is not for me. ?Perfect Fit

Don't want to think about it, but I see it every day. If you want to buy affluence, your soul you'll have to pay. ?Theory of Revolution

You keep on sayin' that you want to know me but you never show me your true self. How can you ever expect someone else to know you when all you're going to do is just pretend that you're someone else? -Yurf Rendenmein

You thought that you could play the game, but I just changed the rules. -Love Is A Many Splendored Thing

I cannot leave here. I cannot stay. Forever haunted, more than afraid. Asphyxiate on words I would say. ?This Time Imperfect

I?d show a smile but I?m too weak. I?d share with you could I only speak, just how much this hurts me. I?d tell you how it haunts me. Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams. ?This Time Imperfect

starshiptrooper #15 starshiptrooperOG 2003

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lot of people cryin' Don't blame me
They point their crooked little fingers to everybody else
Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma's too thin and your daddy's too fat

Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it

You haven't been the same since you had your little crash
But you might feel better if I gave you some cash
The more I think about it, Old Billy was right
Let's kill all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight
You don't want to work, you want to live like a king
But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a thing

Get over it
Get over it
If you don't want to play, then you might as well split
Get over it, Get over it

It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You're makin' the most of your losin' streak
Some call it sick, but I call it weak

You drag it around like a ball and chain
You wallow in the guilt and wallow in the pain
You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a crown
Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody down
Complain about the present and blame it on the past
I'd like to find your inner child and kick its little ***CENSORED***

Get over it
Get over it

tinser #14 tinserOG 2002

"So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely"

"The world seems bigger
Than both of us
Yet it seems so small
when I begin to cry"

"And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are"

"As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain
I take look at my wife and realize she's very plain
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
You know I shun fancy things like electricty
At 4:30 in the morning I'm milking cows,
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows...fool!
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone.
I'm a man of the land I'm into discipline
Got my Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin.
But if I finish all my chores and you finish thine
Then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699."

...and also the lyrics from the background-3eb...classic

Weird Al is awesome:

"Look
If you had
One shot
To sit on your lazy butt
And watch all the TV you ever wanted
Until your brain turned to mush
Would you go for it?
Or just let it slip?
Yo"

fivezero #13 fivezeroOG 2003

Good evening
And for my last hit
I'd like to take you back to the classic
A-hem, B.I.G. style of course
Uhh

[singing]
Playaahh, turn your head round
Lay on the ground, you've been robbed
Wake up, open the door
Lay on the floor, you've been robbed
Uhh
You know, we need this money
And you, yes baby, you, should just roll with me
Let's go off, together
On this robbin spree, we'll make money
Uhh
Playaahh, turn your head round
Take off that crown, you've been robbed
Wake up, open the door
Don't cry no more, you've been robbed

You see, there are two kind of people in the world today
We have, the playaz, and we have, the playa haters
Please don't hate me because I'm beautiful baby

Hear what they talk, about me
But my crew so deep, you can't do, a darn thing, to me

Playahh, open the door
Lay on the floor, you've been robbed
Wake up (wake your @$$ up), take off your jewels
You stupid fools, you've been robbed (this is a robbery nigga)
Playahh playahh (hater), Playahh playahh (hater)
Playahh playahh (hater), Playahh playahh (hater)
Playahh hater!! (hater) Playahh hater!! (hater)
Playahh hater!! (hater) Playahh hater!! (hater)
Uhh, thank you... thank you very much *applause*
Thank you thank you far too kind, far too kind
Thank you, thank you very much
Good night everybody, good night!
I love all of you, thank you thank you
Thank you, thank you very much
Good night!

The sky is fallin
Human race that we are
Has left me crawling
Staring straight at the sun
All in a moment, I notice
Every dog has his day
I paid attention
Cost me so much to to hate

For so long
I saw only wrong
But now to remind
It's a waste of time

Close your eyes and see the sky is fallin

I wanted something
Nothing, blank, I don't know
It's all deflecting
Stones are easy to throw
All in a moment, I noticed
Hours, days left behind
One wasted, useless
Selfless, none of a kind

For so long
I saw only wrong
Now to remind
Not to go back to the low
That has drained my life so long

Close your eyes and see the sky is fallin

QOTSA - sky is fallin'

yodasucka #8 yodasuckaOG 2003

here are some of my favorites:

Dont apologize-I hope u choke and die

Its too late tonite to drag the past out into the light

I will never ask if you dont ever tell me. I kno u well enough to know you never loved me. Why can't I feel any thing for any one other then you?

There r many things that I would like to say to u but I dont know how

How could it fade so fast? Never thought you'd be part of my past

Your mind is lined with layers of lead, have you heard one thing that I said?

Dont look back in anger I heard you say

A 1000 things I wanna say to you, but its too late now.

Noone can change your life except for you. Dont ever let anyone step all over you.

My tongues the only muscle in my body that works harder than my heart

The pain is real even if nobody knows. I'm crying inside and nobody knows it but me.

Nothings so loud as hearing when we lie. The truth is not kind and you said neither am I.

Why can't it be just how it was when things began. When days go we manifest and do the best that we can. I'm much obliged and when it meets your eyes we'll discredit all the lies. Then he says 2 me Theres nothing left 2 mend.

You stole my past-I want it back. Don't let the door hit u. I hope she makes u cry. Screw hello-you had me at goodbye.

You should never let the sun set on tomorrow before the sun rises today.

malibu #8.1 malibuOG 2001

where are these from??
My tongues the only muscle in my body that works harder than my heart

Nothings so loud as hearing when we lie. The truth is not kind and you said neither am I.

i like them a lot. are they from the same song?

yodasucka #8.1.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

No, totally different songs...The first one is Brand New and the second one is Toad the Wet Sproket...

thatdarngirl #7 thatdarngirlOG 2002

All my favorite Weezer quotes:

I want a girl who will laugh for no one else
When I'm away she puts her makeup on the shelf
When I'm away she never leaves the house
-No One Else

Please don't believe her she says that for anyone
-No One Else

The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
-The World has Turned and Left me Here

Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
-Buddy Holly

Watch me unravel
I'll soon be naked
Lying on the floor,
I've come undone
-Undone

I can't confront you
I never could do
That which might hurt you
-Say it ain?t so

You can't resist her
She's in your bones
She is your marrow
-Only in Dreams

You know this is breakin' me up
You think that I'm some kind of freak
-Getchoo

nobody knows me like her
nobody knows her like me
we're all we've got and we don't want to be alone.
-No Other One

Why bother?
it's gonna hurt me
It's gonna kill when you desert me
-Why bother

I'm a lot like you so please Hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
-El Scorcho

I've got a number of irrational fears
That I'd like to share with you
-Falling for You

haaha, they are all in Chronological order, even the ones on the same album go in order

thatdarngirl #7.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I am organized.

yodasucka #7.1.1.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

haha this is why i heart you...

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

The really reason my lyrics are set up that way is because when looking for quotes I went to the Weezer site and read through all the songs, picking out my favorite lines in them so I would get them right (sometimes Rivers mumbles and I don't know what he's really saying). But yay! the joy of being hearted

J
#6 jollycandymanOG 2001

"And if I could be who you wanted, If I could be who you wanted all the time."

"There are many things that I would like to say to you, but I dont know how."

"Im a geenie in a bottle baby, gotta rub me the right way honey"

fivezero #6.1 fivezeroOG 2003

i like all your quotes. i remember seeing radiohead live and when they played that song and especially during that last part--i LOVED it. it was amazing! totally hit me like a ton of bricks.

J
#6.1.1 jollycandymanOG 2001

the song kind of has crap lyrics except for the last line, which saves it

ophelia #5 opheliaOG 2003

"We're finding hope in light
You're my dream tonight
With you I'm falling
In love for the very first time"

"If you could slit my throat..And w/my one last gasping breath I'd appoligize..For bleeding on your shirt"

"One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.
Learn to swim.
Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.
Learn to swim."

"Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me into your perfect circle
One womb
One shape
One resolve
Liberate this will
To release us all
Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue that's
Keeping me from killing you
Give me
One more medicated peaceful moment"

"Watch my chain, cause the iccce gets wreckless. Feels like I got a midget hangin from my necklace" ...hahaha, rap is so comical..especially when it's supposed to be serious

T
#5.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

i thought the whole top part was that TBS song. my bad. i was slightly right.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

yeah, i guess it kinda looks like two different verses of the same song....

ophelia #5.1.1.2 opheliaOG 2003

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

thatdarngirl #4 thatdarngirlOG 2002

"What new friends will the day bring? One for one thousands aquaintences"

tinser #3 tinserOG 2002

To watch the leaves grow on the trees with you is out of question
I walk into this summer all alone the usual session
You feel your instinct then you act but was it your intention
To leave me down and broken now you've ended our ascension
I still can feel the beach sand in my shoes. Remember when
We talked along the ocean's song 'til blue from black fade in
But that was then I learned to live without you far within'
I ask you why you're back to try to let me lose again
You brought me here you wet my taste
You disapeer without a trace
It wasn't me who made the call
'Cause now I wanna' be
Where you sleep
Where you laugh
Where you breath
And I hate to say
Still I sway
Brown your eyes
Gone away
Should I feel some closure I deserve if that at least
And would you be so kind to show reasons for your release
You woke me up from a distant past I left behind complete
The message that you sent that night now falls to bittersweet
Was it me my honesty?
You fail to show I never know
It wasn't me who made the call
'Cause now I wanna' be
Where you sleep
Where you laugh
Where you breath
And I hate to say
Still I sway
Brown your eyes
Gone away
Was it me my honesty
You fail to show I never know.
You brought me here you wet my taste
You disapeer without a trace
Did ya' think I'd ever lead you wrong
Just know I'll save all of our moments that we are

tinser #3.1 tinserOG 2002

sorry, it's so long...but every word is amazing...i couldn't cut any out

esprit15d #2 esprit15dOG 2003

Anything by Blues Traveler's..John Popper is sooooooo clever

"It doesn't matter what I say
As long as I sing with inflection
That makes you feel I'll convey
Some inner truth or vast reflection"

"Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR"

" 'Fools,' said I, 'do you not know
Silence like a cancer grows.' "

"Communication?
A telephonic invasion
I'm manning my escape."

"It's a thousand pages give or take a few
I'll be writing more in a week or two
I can make it longer if you like the style
I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer"

and many more...

Favorite:

Cant blame it on love, cuz common sense plays it part
cant blame it on you, cuz you dont rule my heart
Cant blame it on her, cuz she cant be that smart
messin with you she gonna get a broken heart
so what if what if what if

And numba 2!

And tho you dont believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams come true
When i looked at you
And maybe to if you would believe
You to might be
Overjoyed over love over me...
