AC/DC - Whole Lotta Rosie

Wanna tell you a story
'Bout a woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
Oh, she steals the show
She ain't exactly pretty
She ain't exaclty small
42-39-56
You could say she's got it ALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

Never had a woman, never had a woman like you
Doin' all the things, doin' all the things you do
Ain't no fairy story
Ain't no skin-and-bones
But you give all you got, weighin' in at nineteen stone

[Humphrey]

And from the mighty Wolftones

Go on home British soldiers, go on home.
Have you got no fuckin' homes of your own ?
For eight hundred years we've fought you without fear
And we will fight you for eight hundred more.

If you stay British soldiers, if you stay
You will never ever beat the IRA
The fourteen men in Derry are the last that you will bury
So take a tip and leave us while you may.

No, we're not British, we're not Saxon, we're not English
We're Irish! and proud we are to be.
So fuck your union jack we want our country back
We want to see old Ireland free once more.

Well we're fighting British soldiers for the cause
We'll never bow to soldiers because
Throughout our history we were born to be free
So get out British soldiers, leave us be.

McLusky are always good for song quotes:

'All of your friends are cunts/
Your mother is a ball-point pen thief
Notoriety follows you/like beatings follow rain'

I think this verse from "Everyday is like sunday" is far more fitting for St Andrews;

Yes! I think of St Andrews every time I hear that song.

Oh, and my vote for best song lyrics goes to:
"You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer"

or anything by Jovanotti ("I'm an apple on a branch but if you don't pick me I guess I'll fall to the ground sooner or later, I'm a wire in the wall but I'm good for nothing without your electricity" comes to mind)

"These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
when I was defenseless
and parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
when I was a kid
and parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend."

The Calling actually have some pretty good lyrics!

"In a world where nothing's as it seems, paved with broken dreams I found truth". ~ thank you

"Sit down, lose yourself in thought, then you might find out it's all we've got, take a chance, the future's in your hands. make it what you can before your time has reached the end".

But my favourite band lyrics wise is Lifehouse. Off the top of my head:

"I'm alive but tell me am I free?
I've got eyes but tell me can I see?
The sky is falling and no one knows.
It shouldn't be hard to believe, shouldn't be this difficult to breathe.
The sky is falling and no one knows".

"climb on top of all you despise, it's a better view from the lies".

"I'm trapped inside of my own mind
afraid to open my eyes cause of what I'd find and I
don't want to live like this anymore ".

I could think of a million more!

[the reason for the word w]

"Diese Zeit hat keinen Namen
und keine echten Ideale
doch wir irr'n durch unser Leben
auf der Suche nach Erinnerung
um festzuhalten was schön ist
obwohl ja gar nichts gescheh'n ist

Und dabei scheint es allzu leicht
einen eig'nen Platz zu finden
diesen Wahnsinn zu vergessen
inmitten guter Menschen
doch der Alltag macht uns platt
mit jedem neuen Tag

Das sind felsenharte Zeiten
das ist die Oper der Verrückten
nach Jahren der Verschwendung
ist das Reality in Echtzeit
das ist das ganz normale Leben
so passiert das jetzt eben

Und du hälst mich an den Händen
weil du weißt das das gut tut
wenn man jemandem Halt gibt
der längst nicht mehr sicher steht
ein Freund in solchen Momenten
ein Freund mit Herz und Händen

Und man kann sicher nicht behaupten
das es besser wär wenn es anders wird
aber anders muß es werden
wenn es gut werden soll
das fällt dir ein in dem Moment
wo du den Weg nicht kennst nur rennst
und du rennst davon ja

dabei lieb ich dich so sehr
mit jedem neuen Morgen
deine Ängste und Hoffnungen
und deine ganzen Sorgen
und das du für mich da bist
obwohl das gar nicht immer leicht ist

Denn manchmal frag ich mich
wer bin ich hier
was mach ich hier
und wofür?"

Virginia Jetzt!

and Stars forever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,

Jamie Cullum - Twentysomething

After years of expensive education
A car full of books and anticipation
I´m an expert on Shakespeare and that´s a hell of a lot
But the world don´t need scholars as much as I thought
Maybe I´ll go travelling for a year
Finding myself, or start a career
Could work the poor, though I´m hungry for fame
We all seem so different but we´re just the same
Maybe I´ll go to the gym, so I don´t get fat
Aren´t things more easy, with a tight six pack
Who knows the answers, who do you trust
I can´t even seperate love from lust
Maybe I´ll move back home and pay off my loans
Working nine to five, answering phones
But don´t make me live for Friday nights
Drinking eight pints and getting in fights
Maybe I´ll just fall in love
That could solve it all
Philosophers say that that´s enough
There surely must be more
Love ain´t the answer, nor is work
The truth elludes me so much it hurts
But I´m still having fun and I guess that´s the key
I´m a twentysomething and I´ll keep being me


It's just me. Except for Shakespeare;)
