Favorite Song Lyrics
This isn't necessarily a thread for posting your favorite song, but rather your favorite lyrics, and why.
For me:
I interpret the song as a teenager rebelling against his parents. I know that everybody has had a moment like this, and whenever I am angry, I go straight back to listening to this song. And "You're Wrong" by NOFX, but thats for a different reason
For me:
Offspring - All I Want wrote:
Okay
Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya
Day after day your home life's a wreck
The powers that be just breathe down your neck
You get no respect
You get no relief
You gotta speak up
And yell out your piece
So back off your rules
Back off your jive
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
I don't wanna be controlled
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya
How many times is it gonna take
Till someone around you hears what you say
You've tried being cool
You feel like a lie
You've played by their rules
Now it's their turn to try
So back off your rules
Back off your jive
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
I just don't wanna be controlled
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
I said it before
I'll say it again
If you could just listen then it might make sense
So back off your rules
Back off your jive
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
Just don't wanna be controlled
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya

Re: Favorite Song Lyrics
Happy Birthday to me
These lyrics have meaning to me because they are awesome.
It's my birthday and I'll do what I want to
Fuck you it's my birthday.
A special holiday only for me, so do what I say,
it's my party, I'll make you cry if I want to...or leave.
Fuck you, it's not your birthday, so do what I say.
For 24 hours your wishing me well
364 days I'm in hell, Oh well.
Happy Birthday to me.
alone on my Birthday,
I'm going to Denny's 10 times today
No Tip! it's my birthday, so do what I say
Thanks mom didn't have an abortion,
Or my birthday wouldn't be today.
But I guess it's my good fortune,
my birthday's today. Okay.
For 24 hours your wishing me well
364 days I'm in hell, Oh well.
Happy Birthday to me.
Happy Birthday to me, Spank Me!
Oh well, Happy Birthday to me,
I can't believe you forgot my birthday
it's my birthday and you're wrecking it
now it's just like any other day
you didn't do what I say
How could you forget my birthday?
That's really immature
Fuck you for forgetting my birthday
you didn't do what I say today
24 hours no wishing well
now 365 days I'm in Hell, Oh well.
Happy Birthday to me.

Re: Favorite Song Lyrics
Do I even have to post it? Okay, I will...
Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who
What can I say? Not only is it the theme song for my favorite show, CSI Miami but I have always been a fan of The Who. This is probably one of my favorite songs ever.
You don't get any good classic rock like this these days. Now its all about pop and some rap. Both of which suck.
Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who
We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that's all
But the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!
I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?
There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Re: Favorite Song Lyrics
Elliott Smith is my favourite songwriter. He was pretty messed up, though. He was on heroin for quite a while and ended up killing himself by stabbing himself in the chest. Here's a good one by him.
Here's the videoI Didn't Understand wrote:
Thought you'd be looking for the next in line to love
Then ignore, put out, and put away
And so you'd soon be leaving me alone like I'm supposed to be
Tonight, tomorrow, and every day
There's nothing here that you'll miss
I can guarantee you this is a cloud of smoke
Trying to occupy space
What a fucking joke
What a fucking joke
I waited for a bus to separate the both of us
And take me off, far away from you
'Cos my feelings never change a bit
I always feel like shit
I don't know why, I guess that I just do
You once talked to me about love
And you painted pictures of a never never land
And I could have gone to that place
But I didn't understand
I didn't understand
I didn't understand

Re: Favorite Song Lyrics
My lovely horse, running through the field
Where are you going, with your fetlocks blowing in the wind?
I want to shower you with sugar lumps, and ride you over fences
Polish your hooves every single day, and bring you to the horse dentist
My lovely horse, you're a pony no more
Running around with a man on your back, like a train in the night...

Another hero lost - Shadows Fall
I'll never leave you
But fate has come to silence me
Darkness is all that I see
I cannot reach you
And soon the earth will cover me
It's become so hard to breathe
Forever is waiting
The final steps you're taking
Will soon be buried in the sand
All of the battles
They say we won
They leave another thousand lives undone
Another thousand lives [undone]
Forever is waiting
The final steps you're taking
Will soon be buried in the sand
You're gone but not forgot
Another hero lost
The sorrow builds with every passing
All the lessons that you taught
And all the light you brought
It's all in the eyes of your son
Forever is waiting
The final steps you're taking
Will soon be buried in the sand
You're gone but not forgot
Another hero lost
The sorrow builds with every passing
All the lessons that you taught
And all the light you brought
It's all in the eyes of your son
