'I won't hurt you
As much as you hurt meee'

Inhuman 09.23.2006 07:34 PM

Currently:

"
there's a new girl in your life
long red wavy hair
green green lips and purple eyes
skinny hips and big brown breasts
hanging on your wall
one end slit the other's ripped

support the power of women
use the power of man
support the flower of women
use the word
fuck
the word is love"

but it switches about every week

'i totalled another amp, i'm calling in sick' has been fave for a while.

i need to start using the word 'totalled' more to describe things that are totalled. cool, now I did.

jennthebenn 09.23.2006 07:57 PM

I dreamt that you're my vacation
Woke to find desire and dislocation
You're always heavy in rotation
Coming on, flirting with the nation

She keeps coming closer
Saying "I can feel it in my bones -
Schizophrenia is taking me home"

I don't mind if you sing a different song
Sing a different song
Just as long as we sing, as we sing
Sing along
It's later than it seems

k-krack 09.23.2006 11:44 PM

"It's later than it seems" is the best part of that song.. posbbly even the album. just the wa it's said.

I put my feet deep in the tracks that you made
walked behind you off into the wood
‘We’ll know where when we get there’ you said
And we both knew we would

"small flowers crack concrete
narcotic squads sweep thru poet dens
spilling coffee grabbing 15 yr old runaway girls
by frazzled ponytailed hair + tossing them
into backseats of cop cars
the narcs beat the bearded oracles
replacing tantric love with
complete violence"

"death poems for the living gods of america
plastic saxophones bleat, bleed for nothing, nada
cops crashing thru doors infuriated by silver charms
of suburban smoke" - Small Flowers Crack Concrete

Amazing!

Teenage riot in a public station
Gonna fight and tear it up in a hypernation

One of my favorites " THE GTR GUY PLAYED REAL GOOD FEEDBACK,
AND SUPER SOUNDING RIFFS
HE HAD HIS MILD MANNERED LOOK ON -
MAN, HE WAS TRULY HIP" and "
THE GIRL STARTED IN RED PATENT LEATHER,
VERY “I’M-IN-A-BAND”, WITH KNEEPADS
WE WATCHED HER FALL OVER AND LAY DOWN
SHOUTING THE POETIC TRUTHS OF HIGH SCHOOL JOURNAL KEEPERS"

SonicBebs 09.26.2006 10:26 AM

HELLO 2015 (or is it 2016? anyway, that whole song)

_slavo_ 09.26.2006 11:40 AM

The advertisement says
the pleasure's ever lasting
must be dead and gone to heaven
come and touch me here
so I know
that I'm
not there

flophousefloozie 09.26.2006 11:54 AM

maybe not my fav, but it always seems to get stuck in my head (and then makes me cringe!!)
"stick your fingers in your mouth
and grab your tongue and wrench it out
from it's mother fucking cancer
it's mother fucking cancer"

flophousefloozie 09.26.2006 11:56 AM

Does anyone else think "Bull in the Heather" is a good song for gettin' it on?

fluxequalsrad 09.26.2006 08:56 PM

do you trip and breeze
down city streets
just a little free
with your head in the trees


I was walking up Lafayette street
it's real empty
and I looked out and it turned into a big field
and I looked up in the sky
and I looked up in the clouds
and I saw this face looking down at me
and it's a women's face
and she threw a quarter down at me and she said:
"honey, here's a quarter go put it in the washing machine"
and then I looked up at her,
I looked up



do you remember the time,
when you were new in town?

you smashed yr head in the mirror baby,
and kissed the frozen ground,

Society is a hole
It makes me lie to my friends

also, Pipeline/Kill Time is an all time lyrical fav

stretch me to the point where i stop
run 10 000 miles and then think of me
i think you know the place we should meet
don't worry if it's dark and i'm late

run me on a thin wire
help me to kill this love
i'll join you tonight in the bottom of the well
feel around in the dark till you get the idea

....

scott v 09.27.2006 11:49 AM

one of the greatest opening lines in a song:

"he's running on a tuff gnarl in his head, he's got a fatal erection home in bed..."

and then

"he's really smart and he's really fast he's got hard tit killer fuck in his past..."

I'm quite infatuated with the line "...patches of red dirt glitter and blue jean-fucking..."

ah, i love that pairing.

top 40 squeeze 09.27.2006 12:12 PM

"I don't know how to stop vomitting since i've been working in office... hahaha... ha ha."

That whole song has great lyrics.

"We love the jams, and jams run free."

Plus tons more. This is a new favorite. I just like the way Kim sings it.
