Lyrics that should be better known
Jump to: Newest in thread
North and South, it’s all the same
Gazza’s here to play the game.
Move your body,
Tap your cap
Keep on going to the Gazza Rap
Clap those hands, let it out
Away the lads
Once last shout
Come on!
Geordie Boys, Geordie Boys
We are the Geordie Boys
We are the Geordie Boys, the Geordie Boys
Geordie Boys, Geordie Boys
I am the Geordie Boy
I am the Geordie Boy, the Geordie Boy
Geordie Boys by Gazza |

And it should be 'Howay the lads'. Didn't notice the error when I copied them off of some lyrics website |

‘Life’
By Des'ree
‘Mmm-mm, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh life, oh life
I'm afraid of the dark
'Specially when I'm in a park
And there's no one else around
Ooh, I get the shivers
I don't want to see a ghost
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news.’
- Poetic perfect right there 👍🏻😜 |

Billy Idol, Hot in the city.
"Cause when a long-legged lovely walks by
Yeah, you can see the look in her eye
Then you know that it's
Hot in the city
Hot in the city tonight (tonight)
Hot in the city
Hot in the city tonight (tonight)"
I like the use of the 3 L s in long legged lovely. |

If I get you in the loop when I
Make a point to be straight with you then
In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though
I Brazilian wax poetic so hypothetically
I don't wanna beat around the bush 💜 |

I will forever resent Bad Touch for making me think Bloodhound Gang weren't worth listening to in my youth.
The lyrics are fucking banging 💜 |

"I could be a driver in an articulated lorry
I could be a poet, I wouldn't hit a girl
I could be the ticket man at Fulham Broadway station
Or I could be the strangest man in the whole wide world."

The mediocrity of Desree's lyrics on pretty much all her famous songs is quite frankly astounding. Nearly as bad lyrically as 'Life is a roller coaster" by Ronan Keating. |

I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where to find the answers
And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream
And I know just where to touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose
And I know the night is fading
And I know the time's gonna fly
And I'm never gonna tell you everything I gotta tell you
But I know I gotta give it a try.
Air Supply, lyrics Jim Steinman. |

I bought you mail order
My plain wrapper baby
Your skin is like vinyl
The perfect companion
You float my new pool
De luxe and delightful
Inflatable doll
My role is to serve you
Disposable darling
Can't throw you away now
Immortal and life size
My breath is inside you
I'll dress you up daily
And keep you till death sighs
Inflatable doll
Lover ungrateful
I blew up your body
But you blew my mind

Ooops all wrong, not sure what i was thinking.
I could be the driver in articulated lorry
I could be a poet I wouldn't need to worry
...
I could be a writer with a growing reputation
I could be the ticket man at Fulham Broadway Station |

Son don't put your hat Where you can't reach it. It makes no sense
Good things come to those who work hard for it
Adjust yourself To the life you can afford to live
The road to the top Is long and winding
A foolish dog Barks at the flyin' bird
Patient man ride donkey

Virgil Kane is the name
And I served on the Danville train
'Till Stoneman's cavalry came
And tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65
We were hungry, just barely alive
By May the 10th, Richmond had fell
It's a time I remember, oh so well
(Ch) The night they drove old Dixie down
And the bells were ringing
The night they drove old Dixie down
And the people were singing
They went, "Na, na, la, na, na, la"
Back with my wife in Tennessee
When one day she called to me
"Virgil, quick, come see,
There goes Robert E. Lee!"
Now, I don't mind chopping wood
And I don't care if the money's no good
You take what you need
And you leave the rest
But they should never
Have taken the very best
-chorus
Like my father before me
I will work the land
And like my brother above me
Who took a rebel stand
He was just 18, proud and brave
But a Yankee laid him in his grave
I swear by the mud below my feet
You can't raise a Kane back up
When he's in defeat
The night they drove old Dixie down etc etc
Written by a Canadian, sung by an Arkansan in an authentic southern voice. Being married to a Southern woman myself, one who often refers to the Civil War as "the Northern Aggression", and having visited Richmond a couple of times, I feel a sense of the American South that goes a bit beyond Dukes of Hazzard stereotypes. |

Whilst I don't care for the song much, but Warren Zevon's Warewolves Of London has a line that allows your tongue to play about your mouth if you take the hard T off each word.

But two o'clock has come again
It's time to leave this paradise
Hope the chip shop isn't closed
Cause their pies are really nice
I'll eat it in the taxi queue
Stand in someone else's spew
Wish I had lipstick on my shirt
Instead of piss stains on my shoes
Friday night, Saturday morning by The Specials |

I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
And my penis was missing again.
This happens all the time.
It's detachable.
This comes in handy a lot of the time.
I can leave it home, when I think it's gonna get me in trouble,
Or I can rent it out, when I don't need it.

I have a special place in my heart for lines such as
Is it a Mecca dobber or a betting pencil?
And
His bird says it’s amazing so all that’s left is the proof that loves not only blind but deaf
And Many more from this band

"I don't want to see a ghost
It's the sight that I fear most,
Stay at home and eat some toast

Was voted as the worst lyric ever by NME 😂 |

The court of law are whores who will bend for bribe
All the while people watch reality TV
Sleep easy, wake and repeat the cycle
Are you taking the Michael?
Better beat it, the city full of sheep tweeting on the social media
Tabloids twisting tales and it's causing mass hysteria
Polarise the people, never bite the hand that's feeding ya
When it comes to war, they'll be calling for you needing ya
Fighting for a cause that wasn't yours and leaving ya
Hyper-polarizing the left and the right
Are you woke? Are you racist? Black? Are you white?
Are you all for the Brexit? Makers with exit!
The NHS rots, where was tax directed?
Look, there goes another fucking puppet elected
Dance little puppet, dance for the neglected
Impunity from truth, lies come to be expected

Just a short clip from How We Gonna Make The Black Nation Rise by Brother D & Collective Effort: absolutely seminal, conscious, woke hip-hop from when woke meant wake the fuck up people, not a facile, cheap rightwing slur:
America was built, understand
By st*len labor on st*len land
Take a second thought, as you clap and stamp
Can you rock the house from inside the camp?
As you’re moving to the beat 'til the early light
This country’s moving too, moving to the right
Prepare now, or get high and wait
Cause it AIN'T NO PARTY IN A POLICE STATE
(caps mine for emphasis, but the fire in the song makes it clear it's capitalised to hell and back)

In a galaxy far far away |
I can't tell lies
You're a disgrace
That's not the way
We're told to behave
You get high on this hate
And I give, and I give
And you take, and you take
'Cause I get high on mistakes
I forgive, I forgive
But it's fake, yeah, it's fake
I'm so bad to me
Bad to myself
'Cause I wouldn't take this shit
From anyone else
So, so bad for me
Bad for my health
And I wouldn't do this shit
To anyone else

"Strap-on Sally chased us down the alley, we feared for our behinds,
Oasis was a shop with shoes so hot they were sure to blow your mind,
running so fast I could taste the past oh take me home"
