[Rumpelstiltskin]

I was a little too tall,could’ve used a few pounds
Tight pants points,hardly renowned
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
And points of her own,sittin’ way up high
Way up firm and high
Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the back seat of my’60 Chevy
Workin’ on mysteries without any clues
We weren’t in love,oh no,far from it
We weren’t searchin’ for some pie in the sky summit
We were just young and restless and bored
Livin’ by the sword
And we’d steal away every chance we could
To the back room to the alley or the trusty woods
I used her,She used me but neither one cared
We were getting’ our share
Workin’ on our night moves
Trying’ to lose the awkward teenage blues
Workin’ on our night moves
Mmm,and it was Summertime
Mmm,Sweet,Summertime,Summertime…

If there's any room
in your heart left for me
Darling don't let our love die

You used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get it in your night dress

[Tricky Trevor]

P!nk giving George W. a kicking from Dear Mr President.

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

[Rammy1968]

And they didn’t teach me that in school
It’s something that I learned on my own
That power is measured by the pound or the fist
It’s as clear as this

I’ve got a pocket full of pretty green

[Claretlad]

Oh,the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eye's,and they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin..Dylan.

Small Faces - Lazy Sunday Afternoon
" How's your Berts Lumbago "

[dermotdermot]

William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll

With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ringed finger

At a Baltimore Hotel society gathering

And the cops were called in and his weapon took from him

As they rode him in custody down to the station

And booked William Zanzinger for first degree murder

[Varler]

He always beat me at Subbuteo, cos he flicked to kick and I didn't know

It's only the children of the f*****g wealthy that tend to be good looking!

Ugly!

[Carport]

In the lazy water meadow I lay me down
All around me golden sun flakes covering the ground
Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon
Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room

[HahaYeah]

Day I met God, I got so carried away
Day I met God, I got so carried away
Not with the vision, but the streaks in his hair
Not with religion, but the size of his knob

Kris Kristofferson : Somebody Nobody Knows

Down in the gutter
An old man is lying
Like something the world threw away

The late crowd is leaving
But none of them even
Takes time to look down
Where he lays

The old man is crying
And desperately trying
To wipe off the dirt from his clothes

He's one of those people
The world left behind
He's somebody nobody knows

Brilliant !!!

[Middle-agedClaret]

This is well-known and recognised, but still wonderful - IMHO

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock’n’roll, and drift away.

Great shout that - and to think it was a b-side back in the day - Kirk Brandon was an underrated wordsmith

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Brain damage, Pink Floyd

His heart organ was where it should be
His brain was in his arse
His hand was well out of his pocket
His psyche is in the hearth

[Braindead]

Don't make us laugh, you're a smart kid."
Time is linear
Memory's a stranger
History's for fools
Man is a tool
In the hands of the great God Almighty."
And they gave him command of a nuclear submarine
Sent him back in search of the Garden of Eden

Roger Waters Perfect Sense parts 1 & 2

That's it...end the thread now....those are just two lines from what is a magnificent song,thanks for posting,time to relax with Spotify & Headphones listening to Morrisseys dulcet tones.

Pretty much any line from "Fugazi" by Marillion, e.g.
"Sheathed within the Walkman wear the halo of distortion. Aural contraceptive aborting pregnant conversation"

[Carlos the Great]

Your mother has a penis .:: goldie looking chain .. great album

A certain other thread reminded me of this:

There is surely nothing worse than washing sieves
There is surely nothing worse than washing sieves
With the possible exception of being Garth Crooks
There is surely nothing worse than washing sieves

Bob Dylan, Positively 4th Street:

I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is to see you

[Lord Beamish]

The Child is grown, the Dream is gone.

[RicardoMontalban]

I've seen the needle and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin' sun

Hello darkness my old friend
I’ve come to talk with you again.

[karatekid]

I rise
Looking through my morning eyes
Surprised
To find you by my side

Rack my brain
And try to remember your name
To find
The words to tell you goodbye

Stay - Pink Floyd

It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead to really open her eyes".

There could be a full thread on Smiths/Moz alone. He's a lyrical genius. As Noel Gallagher once said "He's the most literate man ever to write music ".

Nice one. Waters followed this on Ummagumma with Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict. Brilliant title.

Sorry. Missed this follow up. Although it is a song title (if song it is).

Morrissey & Johhny Marr...2 geniuses ...not often geniuses meet and deliver what they did.
