This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain And a hundred percent reason to remember the name! Sleep with one eye open Gripping your pillow tight

Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young & life is long & there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run... You missed the starting gun |

I like a girl with caked up makeup
in the sunshine smoking cigarettes to pass the time who wakes up to a bottle of wine on the nightstand bites and scratches the blinds but I ain't found one quite right yet so I step with pep to the park or supermarket her apartment best be messy And Lisa don't mind when I call her Leslie she's gotta dress with class and Jean Paul Gaultier and a Hermes bag and four inch tips made of ostrich sharp enough to slit your wrists her lips spread gossip won't say sorry when she offends she comes over to my place in her old man's Benz in gold and silver and jewels of all colors and she doesn't take them off when we're tearing up the covers I like a girl who eats and brings it up a sassy little frassy with bulimia her best friend's a plastic surgeon and when her Beamer's in the shop she rolls the Benz manis and pedis on Sundays and Wednesdays money from mommy lovely in Versace costly sprees, it's on at Barney's and I love to watch her go through fifty g's calmly she gets naughty with her pilates body and thinks it's really funny when her nose goes bloody 'cause the blow is so yummy and it keeps her tummy empty and M.D. makes her act more friendly dance the night away and she won't say nothing when she makes your man stray

Overwhelmed as one would be placed in my position...
Such a heavy burden now to be the one Born to bear and bring to all the details of our ending. to write it down for all the world to see. But I forgot my pen. **** the bed again. Typical.

I love Joe Jackson's use of just a few well-chosen words and turns of phrases to quickly get across his protagonist's feelings of disdain, jealousy, possessiveness, and incredulous frustration that the women he once knew are dating all these other men and not him: "Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street" -- This is one of my favorite opening lines ever because his description of these competitor men as "gorillas" (to show how much he dislikes them) humorously summarizes the song's message and the protagonist's perspective. "Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend. They say that looks don't count for much. If so, there goes your proof." -- Ha ha! So now he's saying her boyfriend is ugly.  That's a funny and childish way to express jealousy."If looks could kill There's a man there who's mowed (?) down as dead." -- So now you can imagine him glaring at the man, hating him. ^These are the highpoints for me, but I really like all the lyrics because of the details (staring out the window, coffee getting cold, going to parties, kidding himself he looks smooth) and the overall sense of the protagonist's personality, which is adorable: Is She Really Going Out With Him?

Here are some random pieces of songs
"What ever tomarrow brings, I'll be there, with open arms and open eyes" Drive by incubus "I'll be my super hero number one, I'll save me from myself" Pride by Soil "They wanna see blood, They wanna see hate, Like a needle in your vein, A sickness with no name, In a world that's insane, Was America to blame? When you're praying for a change to a God with no face! America by Deuce |

Favorite lyrics would have to be all of the song Dialogue (l & ll) by Chicago. Okay, I know it might seem a bit cheesy and certainly not the best lyrics of all time but I think it's great. It's basically a back and forth conversation with two people whose opinions clash because they have different views on the world - one thinks that everything is wrong with the world (the pessimistic guy) and the other thinks everything is fine (the happily ignorant guy). The song is two parts, the first basically the "conversation" and the second part a kind of agreement where they realize they can work together and change the world for the better. I wrote a nice little essay about the elements of this song and the lyrics my senior year of high school, but you pretty much get the gist of it.
[YOUTUBE] Spoiler for lyrics and youtube link for anyone who cares:
My other favorite lyrics would have to be Live Forever by Oasis. I'll still blast that in my car every now and then and feel pretty limitless. The Definitely Maybe album means enough to me for Slide Away to be among my fave lyrics too. Other ones that come to mind are Gold Soundz by Pavement and Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who. Yeah, totally unrelated by whatever. I like 'em. |

I could never understand what it’s like to fail
Until I read it on the faces of the lovers I impaled So here’s another nail, go teeter on a scale Of the weight that’s never really worth the tears upon the trail Stalemating rituals are just a medicine that got The population thinking they can be connected when they’re not I got a lot of inhibitions, insecurities, and critics In addition to a conscience that could murder me in minutes Minutes, minutes, welcome to the gates of Hell I really hope you get a chance to finish finish Tell them all the things you felt and maybe they’ll be sympathetic Right before you hang yourself and listen, listen I’m gonna bite the hand that feeds until I masticate And make it live in me a symphony that dance in acid rain It’s like I’m all alone inside a little winter Getting bitter from the frigid shivers when I think and paint the saddest faces Funeral arrangements juxtaposed with all the beautiful bouquets it’s difficult now To a more basic love and hopes when only you alone face it if I fall down Down down on luck I hope it’s temporary some psychosis I bet that the sun exploded years ago but we don’t know it-Sadistik
