"You should hear how we syllogize
You should hear
about how Babel fell and still echoes away,
how we idolize,
theorize,
syllogize,
in the dark,
in the heart."

Pere Ubu - Dub Housing

"on candystripe legs spiderman comes
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
looking for the victim shivering in bed"

The Cure - Lullaby

"time, time, it's so sublime
well they say it's non-existent
but it's playing with my mind
and phone calls don't cost a dime
in the caverns of your feelings
where the sun will never shine"

Meat Puppets - Climbing

"the walls turn into waterfalls
with water made of thoughts that call,
'it's not okay to tip the glass
don't make a noise or shed a tear
you're not the only one that's you
things have changed, now we are here.'"

Meat Puppets - We're Here

"Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you've got words"

Meat Puppets - Plateau

yeah, i like meat puppets lyrics.
