Sock Trees

If you had
One shot
One opportunity
To eat the best thing you ever tasted
would you capture it?
or would you just let it slip...
yo.

sock trees, yo. break it down!

You can eat them on a road
You can eat them with a toad
You can eat them when the lawn is mowed
You can eat them when you get KO'd

SOCK TREES!! they are always your friend!!
SOCK TREES!! They totally rock!!
SOCK TREES!! your wounds they will mend!!
SOCK TREES!! guess what, they grow socks!!

You can eat them like a moose
You can eat them like a goose
You can eat them on the loose
You can eat them in a noose

SOCK TREES!! they are always your friend!!
SOCK TREES!! They totally rock!!
SOCK TREES!! your wounds they will mend!!
SOCK TREES!! guess what, they grow socks!!

You can eat them like an orange!
damn it I can't find anything that rhymes with orange!

you can eat them with your toes
You can eat them like your foes
You can eat them beside a rose
you can eat them with your nose

SOCK TREES!! they are always your friend!!
SOCK TREES!! They totally rock!!
SOCK TREES!! your wounds they will mend!!
SOCK TREES!! guess what, they grow socks!!

ya, uhhuh, check it, yo, sock trees rock! break it down! yo, yo.

SOCK TREES!! they are always your friend!!
SOCK TREES!! They totally rock!!
SOCK TREES!! your wounds they will mend!!
SOCK TREES!! guess what, they grow socks!!

I am feeling a bit warped and whimsical.... so...

I'm a little teapot, short and stout
(hand on hip) here's my handle
(arm bent to side) here's my spout
when the kettle's boiling hear me shout
(bend sideways at waist) Tip me up and pour me out





*evil grin*....

It is this more than the "lyrics" that worries me!

"The Soapmakers" -Clutch

Behind the Cliffside Inn,
I heard a fiddle and a mandolin,
keeping rhythm on an old washboard
and stomping on the floor.
Saw people of all sorts
dancing 'round in twos and fours,
caroling about days of old,
and what the future holds.


In the middle was a big cauldron
that they were stirring, stirring,
and there were trees around
that they kept burning, burning.
I asked a toothless man
who all these people were, and
he said, "The soapmakers,
and we are working, working."


As they stirred Heaven and Earth, they combined to one,
and everything was everyone and each one was all.
As they stirred I heard a trumpet call,
and everything was everyone and each one was all.


As they stirred Heaven and Earth, they combined to one,
and everything was everyone and each one was all.
As they stirred I heard a trumpet call,
and everything was everyone and each one was all.

Dewy Fields by Bel Canto
Go
Go to seek and find
What you're hoping for
Come
The treasure is yours
You're running out of time
When morning comes
Your dreams are real
In dewy fields
Your trace is left behind
So very little time
So very little hope
You're longing for someone
While the rain is falling down
Searching, looking, hoping for someone
You're crossing the dewy fields
You're walking in the woods
There's someone catching up
They're someone watching over you
Keeping secret your precious thing
Your treasure is
Your enemy

[Tybaltus]

From Bel Canto (gothic) to The Fixx (new wave)

Heres the extended version of whats in my current sig. And this is one of the new wave songs that does have good lyrics.

Stand or Fall by The Fixx

Crying parents tell their children
If you survive don't do as we did
A son exclaims there'll be nothing to do to
Her daughter says she'll be dead with you
While foreign affairs are screwing us rotten
Line morale has hit rock bottom
Dying embers stand forgotten
Talks of peace were being trodden

Stand or fall state your peace tonight
Stand or fall state your peace tonight

Is this the value of our existence
Should we proclaim with such persistence
Our destiny relies on conscience
Red or blue what's the difference

Stand or fall state your peace tonight
Stand or fall state your peace tonight

An empty face reflects extinction
Ugly scars divide the nation
Desecrate the population
There will be no exaltation

Its the euro theatre

Stand or fall state your peace tonight
Stand or fall state your peace tonight

[The Z]

Superman (It's Not Easy) - FIVE FOR FIGHTING

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird:I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd:but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed:but won't you conceed
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away:away from me
It's all right:You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy r anything:

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It's not easy to be me.

[Bloodmist]

Suffer - Smashing Pumpkins


All that you suffer is all that you are
All that you smother is all that you are
And you're saying you're seeing, you're saying who you are
What takes meaning is cleaning the meaning of who you are

All may say
I will dream
All may say

All your struggles beneath your disguise
Drink from the reasons that hold you alive
'Til we're safe from the wounds of desire and pain
You must rise from the mounds of desire and change

Too late to discover peace of mind
Too late to recover me

All you see and all you breathe and all you cease to be
Taken down your only son and what he means to me
Your dream will be
To dream with me

Will you wait? Yes I will, I will wait for you
To cleanse your life takes more than time
Take what you want
Take all of it

Too late to discover peace of mind (have no peace of mind)
Too late to recover

[frogus]

Hello, Hello. My names Terry and I'm a law abider
There's nothing I like more than getting fired up on beer
And when the weekends here I to exercise my right to get paralytic and fight
Good bloke fairly
But I get well leery when geezers look at me funny
Bounce 'em round like bunnies
I'm likely to cause mischief
Good clean grief you must believe and I ain't no thief.
Law abiding and all, all legal.
And who cares about my liver when it feels good
What you need is some real manhood.
Rasher Rasher Barney and Kasha putting peoples backs up.
Public disorder, I'll give you public disorder.
I down eight pints and run all over the place
Spit in the face of an Officer
See if that bothers you cause I never broke a law in my life
Someday I'm gonna settle down with a wife
Come on lads lets have another fight

Eh, hello. My names Tim and I'm a criminal,
In the eyes of society I need to be in jail
For the choice of herbs I inhale.
This ain't no wholesale operation
Just a few eighths and some Playstation's my vocation
I pose a threat to the nation
And down the station the police hold no patients
Let's talk space and time
I like to get deep sometimes and think about Einstein
And Karl Jung And old Kung Fu movies I like to see
Pass the hydrator please
Yeah I'm floating on thin air.
Going to Amsterdam in the New Year - top gear there
Cause I taker pride in my hobby
Home made bongs using my engineering degree
Dear Leaders, please legalise weed for these reasons.

Like I was saying to him.
I told him: "Top with me and you won't live."
So I smacked him in the head and downed another Carling...
Bada Bada Bing for the lad's night.
Mad fight, his face's a sad sight.
Vodka and Snake Bite.
Going on like a right geez, he's a ****,
Shouldn't have looked at me like that.
Anyway I'm an upstanding citizen
If a war came along I'd be on the front line with 'em.
Can't stand crime either them hooligans on heroin.
Drugs and criminals those thugs on the penny coloured will be the downfall of society
I've got all the anger pent up inside of me.

You know I don't see why I should be the criminal
How can something with no recorded fatalities be illegal?
And how many deaths are there per year from alcohol?
I just completed Gran Tourismo on the hardest setting
We pose no threat on my settee
Ooh the pizza's here will someone let him in please?
"We didn't order chicken... Not a problem we'll pick it out
I doubt they meant to mess us about
After all we're all adults not louts."
As I was saying, we're friendly peaceful people
We're not the ones out there causing trouble.
We just sit in this hazy bubble with our quarters
Discussing how beautiful Gail Porter is.
MTV, BBC 2, Channel 4 is on until six in the morning.
Then at six in the morning the sun dawns and it's my bedtime.

Causing trouble, your stinking rabble
Boys saying I'm the lad who's spoiling it
You're on drugs it really bugs me when people try and tell me I'm a thug
Just for getting drunk
I like getting drunk
Cause I'm an upstanding citizen
If a war came along I'd be on the front line with em.

Now Terry you're repeating yourself
But that's okay drunk people can't help that.
A chemical reaction inside your brain causes you to forget what you're saying.

What. I know exactly what I'm saying
I'm perfectly sane
You stinking student lamo
Go get a job and stop robbing us of our taxes.

Err, well actually according to research
Government funding for further education pales in insignificance
When compared to how much they spend on repairing
Leery drunk people at the weekend
In casualty wards all over the land.

Why you cheeky little swine come here
I'm gonna batter you. Come here.

[Tamerlane]

I'd better start with something down right negative.

You Know You're Right - Nirvana

I will never bother you
I will never promise to
I will never follow you
I will never bother you

Never speak a word again
I will crawl away for good

I won't move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this

Things have never been so swell
I have never failed to fail

Pain!
Pain!
Pain!

You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!

I'm so warm and calm inside
I no longer have to hide
Let's talk about someone else
Steaming soup begins to melt

Nothing really bothers her
She just wants to love herself

I won't move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this

Things have never been so swell!
I have never failed to fail!

Pain!
Pain!
Pain!
Pain!
Pain!

You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!

You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!

You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!
You know you're right!

You know you're right!
You know you're right!

Pain!
Pain!
Pain!
Pain...

Something less negative from Billy Corgans new band.

And So I Died Of A Broken Heart - Zwan

If only I'd die
Just once in my life
Only try
To take a guess
To be the best
A feeling I hide,
That runs this world
That keeps us alive
I want you to climb with me

Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die

The heart of a child
Is in your hands
So let's see you smile
'Cause I'm not impressed with your loneliness
It's been a while
Since you forgave all your changes made
So lets count the miles together

Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die

If only I'd die
Just once in this life
Only try
Together

Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die of a broken heart
A broken heart
Until I die

[The Z]

"Forgotten" - Linkin Park

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care
[Chorus x2]

There’s a place so dark you can’t see the end
Skies c**k back and shock that which can’t defend
The rain then sends dripping / acidic question
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
Then with the eyes shut / looking thought the rust and rot
And dust / a small spot of light floods the floor
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
The eyes ease open and its dark again

[Chorus x1]

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Moving all around / screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
The wheels go round and the sunset creeps behind
Street lamps, chain-link and concrete
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats
On down the street till the wind is gone
The memory now is like the picture was then
When the paper’s crumpled up it can’t be perfect again

[Chorus x2]

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you
[x7]

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up
[x2]

[garazdawi]

Third eye blind-Slow Motion

MISS JONES TAUGHT ME ENGLISH
BUT I THINK I JUST SHOT HER SON
'CUZ HE OWED ME MONEY
WITH A BULLET IN THE CHEST
YOU CANNOT RUN

NOW HE'S BLEEDING IN A VACANT LOT
THE ONE IN THE SUMMER
WHERE WE USED TO SMOKE POT
I GUESS I DIDN'T MEAN IT
BUT MAN YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN IT
HIS FLESH EXPLODE

SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO
WE TEND TO DIE YOUNG
SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO
WHAT BROTHER KNOWS
SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO

NOW THE COPS WILL GET ME
BUT GIRL IF YOU WOULD LET ME
I'LL TAKE YOUR PANTS OFF
I GOT A LITTLE BIT OF BLOW
WE COULD BOTH GET IT OFF

LATER BATHING IN THE AFTERGLOW
TWO LINES OF COKE
GOT CUT WITH DRAIN-O
AND HER NOSE STARTS TO BLEED
A MOST BEAUTIFUL RUBY RED

SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO
WE'LL REMEMBER THESE DAYS
SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO
URBAN LIFE DECAYS
SLOW MOTION SEE ME LET GO

AND AT HOME
MY SISTER'S EATING PAINT CHIPS AGAIN
MAYBE THAT'S WHY SHE'S INSANE
I SHUT THE DOOR TO HER MOANING
AND I SHOOT SMACK IN MY VEINS
WOULDN'T YOU

SEE MY NEIGHBOR BEATING HIS WIFE
BECAUSE HE HATES HIS LIFE
THERE'S A KNOCK TO HIS FIST AS HE SWINGS
OH MAN WHAT A BEAUTIFUL THING

AND DEATH SLIDES CLOSE TO ME
WON'T GROW OLD TO BE
A JUNKIE WINE-O CREEP

HOLLYWOOD GLAMORIZED MY WRATH
I'M A YOUNG URBAN PSYCHOPATH

[garazdawi]

Third eye blind-Deep Inside Of You

When we met light was shed
Thoughts free flow you said you’ve got something
Deep inside of you
A wind chime voice sounds, sway of your hips round rings true
It goes deep inside of you
These secret garden beams
Changed my life so it seems
Fall breeze blows outside, I don’t break stride
Thoughts are warm, and they go
Deep inside of you
And I never felt alone, till I met you

Friends say I’ve changed, I don’t listen cause I live to be
Deep inside of you
Slide of her dress, shouts in darkness
I’m so alive
I’m deep inside of you
You said boy make girl feel good
But still
Deep inside
I’ve never felt alone
Till I met you
I’m alright on my own
And then I met you
And I’d know what to do if I just knew what’s coming

I would change myself if I could
I’d walk with my people if I could find them, and I’d say that I’m sorry to you
I’m sorry to you
And I don’t wanna call you, but then I wanna call you cause I don’t wanna crush you but I feel like crushing you and it’s true I took for granted you were with me
I breathe by your looks and you look right through me
But we were broke and didn’t know it
We were broke and didn’t know it
We were broke and didn’t know it
We were broke and didn’t know

Something’s gone you withdraw and I’m not strong like before
I was
Deep inside of you
I can go nowhere
I burn candles and stare at a ghost
Deep inside of you
And some great need in me
Starts to bleed
I’ve lost myself, there’s nothing left, it’s all gone
Deep inside of you
Deep inside of you
Deep inside of you

[Tybaltus]

This song has such dark lyrics, but the song itself is awesome. But the artist...well shes a bit strange, but this is a great song, even if the band freaks me out.

Cities In Dust by Soiuxsie and the Banshees

Water was running; children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?
But ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend

We found you hiding, we found you lying
Choking on the dirt and sand
Your former glories and all the stories
Dragged and washed with eager hands

But ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
your city lies in dust

Water was running; children were running
We found you hiding, we found you lying
Water was running; children were running
We found you hiding, we found you lying
your city lies in dust
ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend

Hot and burning in your nostrils
Pouring down your gaping mouth
Your molten bodies blanket of cinders
Caught in the throes .......

Ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend
Ohh oh your city lies in dust, my friend

Your city lies in dust

[Krusader]

VETERAN OF THE PSYCHIC WARS
( - E. Bloom - M. Moor**** - ) From the album Fire of Unknown Origin
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long
Where the winds of limbo roar
And I'm young enough to look at
And far too old to see
All the scars are on the inside
I'm not sure if there's anything left of me
Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a break from it
It's time we had some leave
We've been living in the flames
We've been eating up our brains
Oh, please don't let theses shakes go on
You ask me why I'm weary, why I can't speak to you
You blame me for my silence
Say it's time I changed and grew
But the war's still going on dear
And there's no end that I know
And I can't say if we're ever...
I can't say if we're ever gonna to be free
Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a break from it
It's time we had some leave
We've been living in the flames
We've been eating out our brains
Oh, please don't let theses shakes go on
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
My energy's spent at last
And my armor is destroyed I have used up all my weapons and I'm helpless and bereaved
Wounds are all I'm made of
Did I hear you say that this is victory?
Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a break from it
Send me to the rear Where the tides of madness swell
And been sliding into hell
Oh, please don't let shakes go on
Don't let these shakes go on
Don't let these shakes go on

[Zelgadis]

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep, there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

Everything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same

[Duskyblue]

You don't have to wait for later
here's a new eleminator.
Ask your local weapon-trader
for the Superperforator.
Stress? Just cool it
here's a special boulette
put it in the magazine
Boom 'n' Bang into your been

You can call the Operator
for the Superperforator!
Killing is your habit
makes you waitin' like a rabit

Before you da-da-deer

and before the breake of dawn
we'll have your bumper here belong.
Sprinkel in the long. (Hih!)

Bulli-bang-bang,
the bang-boom-boom,
meet your dune,

the local weapon-trader
for the Superperforator.
CHEEEEERS!
