THUNDER ROAD
Bruce Springsteen The screen door slams Mary's dress waves Like a vision she dances across the porch As the radio plays Roy Orbison singing for the lonely Hey that's me and I want you only Don't turn me home again I just can't face myself alone again Don't run back inside darling you know just what I'm here for So you're scared and you're thinking That maybe we ain't that young anymore Show a little faith, there's magic in the night You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright Oh and that's alright with me You can hide 'neath your covers And study your pain Make crosses from your lovers Throw roses in the rain Waste your summer praying in vain For a savior to rise from these streets Well now I'm no hero That's understood All the redemption I can offer, girl Is beneath this dirty hood With a chance to make it good somehow Hey what else can we do now Except roll down the window And let the wind blow back your hair Well the night's busting open These two lanes will take us anywhere We got one last chance to make it real To trade in these wings on some wheels Climb in back Heaven's waiting on down the tracks Oh oh come take my hand Riding out tonight to case the promised land Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road Lying out there like a killer in the sun Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold Thunder Road Well I got this guitar And I learned how to make it talk And my car's out back If you're ready to take that long walk From your front porch to my front seat The door's open but the ride it ain't free And I know you're lonely For words that I ain't spoken But tonight we'll be free All the promises'll be broken There were ghosts in the eyes Of all the boys you sent away They haunt this dusty beach road In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets They scream your name at night in the street Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet And in the lonely cool before dawn You hear their engines roaring on But when you get to the porch they're gone On the wind, so Mary climb in It's a town full of losers And I'm pulling out of here to win. |
Lovely
Suicidal Tendencies Screwed up people everywhere, but I ain't got time to care I feel lovely, la la la lovely All kind of souls down to the curb, but me help, don't be absurd I feel lovely, la la la lovely Cause it's a problem of society, if it don't affect me and I feel lovely As long as I feel lovely yea Oh so lovely! Ans I'm not guilty of your abuse, see it's all self-induced and I feel lovely Everything's so lovely All your kind are like a pollution, look 'em up quick that's The solution lovely Wouldn't that be lovely? So Tipper babe don't you remember me? Now I'm kinder, gentler and so happy It's lovely! La la la - as long as I feel lovely, yea La la la - and I feel lovely, yea La la la - and everything is la la la la la la la la lovely La la la La la la la la la lovely Everything is so lovely I think I'll throw a party Won't you come along darling? It's a surprise party for me Simply because I feel lovely! If everything's so lovely... then why don't I, why don't I, Why don't I, why don't I feel lovely? Lovely, la la la lovely, la la la lovely, la la la lovely |

Some of my favorite Ataris lyrics:
From 1*15*96 I sometimes think about how things could be If you would've took a chance and moved out here with me. We'd cruise along the 101 in the California sun Sing Descendents songs and have ourselves lots of fun. Stay out drinking really late stumble home from lower State. Treat every day like it would be our first date. Especially the part about stumbling home from lower State....been there, done that, way too many times...even made another LoTter do it once. :eek: From San Dimas High School Football Rules Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland, Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line. I drove you to your house where we stared up at the stars I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms. And of course: In This Diary Here in this diary, I write you visions of my summer. It was the best I ever had. There were choruses and sing-alongs, And that unspoken feeling of knowing Right now is all that matters All the nights we stayed up talking and listening to 80's songs; quoting lines from all those movies that we love. It still brings a smile to my face. I guess when it comes down to it... Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up: These are the best days of our lives. The only thing that matters is just following your heart and eventually you'll finally get it right. Breaking into hotel swimming pools, and wreaking havoc on our world. Hanging out at truck stops just to pass the time. The black top's singing me to sleep. Lighting fireworks in parking lots, illuminate the blackest nights. Cherry cokes under this moonlight summer sky. 2015 Riverside, it's time to say, "goodbye." Get on the bus, it's time to go. Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up: These are the best days of our lives. The only thing that matters is just following your heart, and eventually you'll finally get it right It always makes me think fondly of times gone by, and people who are no longer in my life. |
(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes ~ Elvis Costello
Oh, I used to be disgusted And now I try to be amused But since their wings have got rusted You know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes But when they told me 'bout their side of the bargain That's when I knew that I could not refuse And I won't get any older, 'cause the angels wanna wear my red shoes Oh, oh, I was watching while you're dancing away Our love got fractured in the echo and sway How come everybody wants to be your friend? You know that it still hurts me just to say it Oh, I know that she's disgusted (Oh, why's that?) 'Cause she's feeling so abused (Oh, that's too bad) She gets tired of the lust (Oh, I'm so sad) But it's so hard to refuse Can you say that I'm too old When the angels have stolen my red shoes? Oh, I said, "I'm so happy I could die" She said, "Drop dead," then left with another guy That's what you get if you go chasing after vengeance Ever since you got me punctured, this has been my sentence (REPEAT FIRST VERSE) Oh, I won't get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes |

Okay, laugh away, but the lyrics to this song are my absolute favorite and have gotten me through some rough patches. :snap: Plus, these lyrics have made their way into my sig on at least a squillion different occasions!
Life's A Show ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Once More With Feeling Soundtrack Life’s a show and we all play a part And when the music starts, We open up our hearts It’s all right if some things come out wrong. We’ll sing a happy song And you can sing along. Where’s there’s life, There’s hope. Everyday’s A gift. Wishes can Come true. Whistle while You work. So hard All day. To be like other girls To fit in in this glittering world. Don’t give me songs. Don’t give me songs. Give me something to sing about. I need something to sing about. Life’s a song You don’t get to rehearse. And every single verse Can make it that much worse. Still my friends Don’t know why I ignore The million things or more I should be dancing for. All the joy Life sends. Family And friends. All the twists And bends Knowing that It ends. Well that Depends… On if they let you go, On if they know enough to know That when you bow You leave the crowd. There was no pain, No fear, no doubt Till they pulled me out Of heaven. So that’s my refrain. I live in hell ’Cause I’ve been expelled From heaven. I think I was in heaven. So give me something to sing about. Please give me something. Life’s not a song. Life isn’t bliss. Life is just this. It’s living. You’ll get along. The pain that you feel Only can heal By living. You have to go on living. So that one of us is living. |
When the President Talks to God ~ Bright Eyes When the President talks to God, are the conversations brief or long? Does he ask to rape our womens rights, and send poor farm kids off to die? Does God suggest an oil hike, when the President talks to God? When the President talks to God, are the consonants all hard or soft? Is he resolute all down the line? Is every issue black or white? Does what God say ever change his mind, when the President talks to God? When the President talks to God, does he fake that drawl or merely nod? Agree which convicts should be killed? Where prisons should be built and filled? Which voter fraud must be concealed, when the President talks to God? When the President talks to God, I wonder which one plays the better cop. "We should find some jobs, the ghetto's broke," "No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't; just give 'em more liqour stores and dirty coke!" That's what God recommends. When the President talks to God, do they drink near beer and go play golf while they pick which countries to invade, which Muslim souls still can be saved? I guess God just calls a spade a spade when the President talks to God. When the President talks to God, does he ever think that maybe he's not? That that voice is just inside his head, when he kneels next to the presidential bed? Does he ever smell his own bvllsh*t? When the President talks to God? I doubt it...I doubt it. |
Head like a Hole - NIN
God money I’ll do anything for you. God money just tell me what you want me to. God money nail me up against the wall. God money don’t want everything he wants it all. No you can’t take it No you can’t take it No you can’t take that away from me No you can’t take it No you can’t take it No you can’t take that away from me Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. God money’s not looking for the cure. God money’s not concerned with the sick among the pure. God money let’s go dancing on the backs of the bruised. God money’s not one to choose No you can’t take it No you can’t take it No you can’t take that away from me No you can’t take it No you can’t take it No you can’t take that away from me Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Head like a hole. Black as your soul. I’d rather die than give you control. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. Bow down before the one you serve. You’re going to get what you deserve. You know who you are. |
Change the World ~ sung by Eric Clapton
If I can reach the stars, Pull one down for you, Shine it on my heart So you could see the truth: That this love I have inside Is everything it seems. But for now I find It’s only in my dreams. And I can change the world, I will be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. And if I could be king, Even for a day, I’d take you as my queen; I’d have it no other way. And our love would rule This kingdom we had made. Till then I’d be a fool, Wishing for the day... That I can change the world, I would be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. I could change the world, I would be the sunlight in your universe. You would think my love was really something good, Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. Baby if I could change the world. |
