| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) "The Kids Aren't Alright"
When we were young the future was so bright
The old neighborhood was so alive
And every kid on the whole damn street
Was gonna make it big and not be beat
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn
How can one little street
Swallow so many lives
[Chorus]
Chances thrown
Nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard
Hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
Jamie had a chance, well she really did
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids
Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot
Jay committed suicide
Brandon OD'd and died
What the hell is going on
The cruelest dream, reality

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) "Damn The Machine" - Gamma Ray
Damn the Machine
Drilling in the center of my mind
One evil dream
The annihilation of mankind
The stern-faced leaders in their temple of doom
Creating nightmares made for me and for you
Damn the machine
The enemy is stalking in the void
One evil dream
The engine's running faster to destroy
Here come the raiders they're invading us all
We stand in silence with our backs to the wall
Once I believed in the voice of a god
The god of creation is gone
A call from the heart to the god of love
Send us an angel, a sign from above
All of the damned and a silent scream
Save us and damn the machine
The curse - fortold in prophecies is haunting us now
The world - a creeping agony and there's no way out
Caught in illusions I'm screaming in pain
The demon is corroding my brain
A call from the heart to the god of love
Send us an angel, a sign from above
All of the damned and a silent scream
Save us and damn the machine |

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Black Wonderful Life
Here I go out to see again
the sunshine fills my hair
and dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes
you know it feels unfair
there's magic everywhere
Look at me standing
here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine
No need to run and hide
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
Sun in your eyes
the heat is in your hair
they seem to hate you
because you're there
and I need a friend
Oh, I need a friend
to make me happy
not stand here on my own
Look at me standing
here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine
No need to run and hide
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
I need a friend
oh, I need friend
to make me happy
not so alone.......
Look at me here
here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine
No need to run and hide
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to run and hide
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to run and hide
it's a wonderful, wonderful life
wonderful life, wonderful life |

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) With a week to go before I head back out to work, I'm singing road songs again..
Al Jesus Jones - Asleep on the Motorway
It could just be me but there's a phoniness about
The magic and the mystery of 3am
Pondering not so much the meaning of life
More the miles per lonely hour before a coffee stop again
Asleep on the motorway
There is a world beyond the glare of these lights
Asleep on the motorway
Trying hard to believe it's just one of those nights
No-one here to guide me through the darkest hour
Just lines on the road like days in a year
Trains of thought run alongside, remote in the dark
You've gotta keep alert to stop I'm getting too near
Asleep on the motorway
There is a world beyond the glare of these lights
Asleep on the motorway
Trying hard to believe it's just one of those nights
And then it hits me, or rather, I hit it
Asleep on the motorway
There is a world beyond the glare of these lights
Asleep on the motorway
Trying hard to believe it's just one of those nights
Asleep on the motorway
There is a world beyond the glare of these lights
Asleep on the motorway
Trying hard to believe it's just one of those nights

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) New Young Pony Club - Ice cream
I can give you what you want.
I can make your heart beat short.
I can make you ice cream
We could be a sweet team
Melting in your vice dreams, sport.
I can be the sauce you crave.
I can spell what you can't say.
Chocolate flavored love theme
Treat that treats you so mean
Covering your nights and days.
Let me give you what you'd like.
I can make your mouth run dry.
Drink me like a liquor
C'mon and dip your dipper
Show me what you're here for, guy.
I can give you what you want.
I can make your back real taunt
Fantastic flavor fancies -
Sick like Syd and Nancy -
Wicked as a joyride jaunt.
What you want
I can give you what you want
What you want
I can give you what you want, you want
You want
I can give you what you want
What you want
You want
Whatcha whatcha want now.

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) There was a garden
In the beginning
Before the fall
Before Genesis
There was a tree there
A tree of knowledge
Sophia would insist
You must eat of this
Original sin?
No, I don't think so
Original sinsuality
Original sin?
No, it should be
Original sinsuality
Original sin?
No, I don't think so
Original sinsuality
Yaldaboath
Saklas
I'm calling you
Samael
You are not alone
I say
You are not alone
In your darkness
You are not alone
Baby
You are not alone

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Bon Jovi - Have A Nice Day
Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?
Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Mama, can you hear me? try to understand.
Is innocence the difference between a boy and a man.
My daddy lived a lie, it's just the price that he paid.
Sacrificed his life, just slaving away.
Oh,if there is one thing I hang onto,
That gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge and
show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my FACE,
I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day-ay-ay
Take a look around you, nothing´s what it seems
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams,
Let me be the first to shake a helping hand.
Anybody, brave enough to take a stand,
I've knocked on every door, on every dead-end street,
Looking for forgiveness and what's left to believe
Oh, if there is one thing I hang onto,
That gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, and show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have A Nice Day-ay-ay
Have A Nice Day.
(Guitar Solo)
Oh oh , if there is one thing I hang onto,
That gets me through the night.
I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,
I'm gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge,and show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my way,
I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day
Have A Nice Day-ay-ay
Have A Nice Day.
When The world keeps trying to drag me down,
Gotta raise my hands, gonna stand my ground.
I say, hey, Have A Nice Day-ay-ay.
Have A Nice Day! |

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Cher - Shoop Shoop
Does he love me I wanna know
How can I tell if he loves me so
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no you'll be deceived
Is it in his eyes?
Oh no he'll make believe
If you wanna know if he loves you so (shoop shoop shoop)
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Or is it in his face?
Oh no it's just his charms
In his warm embrace?
Oh no that's just his arms
If you wanna know if he loves you so (shoop shoop shoop)
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Woah It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Woah hug him and squeeze him tight
Find out what you want to know
If it's love if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How 'bout the way he acts?
Oh no that's not the way
And you're not listenin' to all I said
If you wanna know if he loves you so (shoop shoop shoop)
It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Woah It's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh yeah it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh oh it's in his kiss
That's where it is
Oh ohh it's in his... kiss
That's where it is.... |

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Suede - The Wild Ones
There's a song playing on the radio
Sky high in the airwaves on the morning show
And there's a lifeline slipping as the record plays
And as I open the blinds in my mind I'm believing that you could stay
And oh if you stay I'll chase the rainblown fields away
We'll shine like the morning and sin in the sun
Oh if you stay |

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Dashboard Confessional – Saints and Sailors
This is where I say, I've had enough, and no one should ever feel,
The way that I feel now, A walking open wound, A trophy display of bruises,
And I don't believe, That I'm getting any better, Waiting here with
Hopes the phone will ring, And I'm thinking awful things, And I'm pretty sure,
That few would notice. And this apartment, Is starving for an argument,
Anything at all to break the Silence, Wandering the house Like I've never wanted out,
And this is about, As social as I get now, And I'm throwing away,
The letters that I am writing you, 'cause they would never do,
I would never do, So don't be a liar, Don't say that "Everything's working"
When everything's broken, And you smile like a saint,
But you curse like a sailor, And your eyes say the joke's on Me.

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) Nathaniel Merriweather and everyone else! - Book of the Month
Im loving lovage.
You and me are the disease and the germs are spreading
Use me like listerine, keeping your breath fresher
Feel the stroke of your paintbrush, my blank sheet of paper
I'm your book of the month, read the fine print later
We'll invent new four letter words
You are the bitter, I am the sweet
Run through the fields, sing with the birds
You are the griddle, I am the meat
I'll turn you on like the electric company
You are the bitter, I am the sweet
Flick on the switch and light your pilot light
You are the griddle, I am the meat
You and me are the disease and the germs are spreading
Use me like listerine, keeping your breath fresher
Feel the stroke of your paintbrush, my blank sheet of paper
I'm your book of the month, read the fine print later
We'll laugh away our golden years
You are the bitter, I am the sweet
We'll line the clouds with silver tears
You are the griddle, I am the meat
You and me are the disease and the germs are spreading
Use me like listerine, keeping your breath fresher
Feel the stroke of your paintbrush, my blank sheet of paper
I'm your book of the month, read the fine print later
You and me are the disease and the germs are spreading
Use me like listerine, keeping your breath fresher
Feel the stroke of your paintbrush, my blank sheet of paper
I'm your book of the month, read the fine print later
You are the bitter, I am the sweet
You are the griddle, I am the meat
You are the trick, I am the treat
You are the circus, I am the freak
You are the bitter, I am the sweet
You are the griddle, I am the meat
You are the trick, I am the treat
You are the circus, I am the freak

She said call me now baby,
And I'd come a running,
She said call me now baby,
And I'd come a running,
If you'd call me now baby,

I'm on call,
So be there,

To be there,
When I fall,
To pieces,
Don't you know,
I'll be there waiting
I'm gonna brawl
So be there,
One for all,
Be there,
When they fall,
To pieces,
Don't you know,
I'll be there laughing
I'll come a running,
I come a running,
I've come a running,
Be there!
I'm on call
So be there
I'm on call to be there!

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) TV on the Radio - Wolf Like Me
Say say my playmate
wont you lay hands on me
mirror my malady
transfer my tragedy
Got a curse i cannot lift
shines when the sunset shifts
when the moon is round and full
gotta bust that box gotta gut that fish
My mind's aflame
We could jet in a stolen car
but i bet we wouldnt get too far
before the transformation takes
and bloodlust tanks and
crave gets slaked
My mind has changed
my bodys frame but god i like it
my hearts aflame
my bodys strained but god i like it
My mind has changed
my bodys frame but god i like it
<a href="http://www.lyricsmania.com">Lyrics</a>
my hearts aflame
my bodys strained but god i like it
Charge me your day rate
ill turn you out in kind
when the moon is round and full
gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your
mongrel mind
baby doll i recognize
you're a hideous thing inside
if ever there were a lucky kind it's
you you you you
I know its strange another way to get to know you
you'll never know unless we go so let me show you
i know its strange another way to get to know you
we've got till noon here comes the moon
so let it show you
show you now
Dream me oh dreamer
down to the floor
open my hands and let them
weave onto yours
Feel me, completer
down to my core
open my heart and let it
bleed onto yours
Feeding on fever
down all fours
show you what all that
howl is for
Hey hey my playmate
let me lay waste to thee
burned down their hanging trees
it's hot here hot here hot here hot here
Got a curse we cannot lift
shines when the sunshine shifts
there's a cure comes with a kiss
the bite that binds the gift that gives
now that we got gone for good
writhing under your riding hood
tell your gra'ma and your mama too
it's true
we're howling forever

| Re: [Lyrics] Your favourite song of the day (Lyrics please!) from here
no lines are
drawn
from here
no lands
are owned
13,000 and holding
swallowed
in the purring
of her engines
tracking the beacon
here
"is there a signal
there
on the other side"
on the other side?
what do you mean
side of what things?
and you said
and you did
and you said
you could find me here
and you said
you would find me
even in death
and you said
and you said
you'd find me
but i can't see new york
as i'm, circling down
through white cloud
falling out
and i know
his lips are warm
but i can't seem
to find my way out
my way out i can't see.
of this hunting ground
from here crystal meth
in metres of millions
in the end all we have,
soul blueprint.
did we get lost in it
do we conduct a search
for this "from the other side"
from the other side?
what do they mean
side of what things...
and you said.
you again
it's you again
i can't see
i can't see new york
from the other side
from the other side
i hum from the other side
