Helloween - Heavy Metal Hamsters

There are some fellows soft and mellow
Sitting in the field and play like hell
No one knows the way it goes
But all the songs they play they sound so well

Tonight we go to see the Heavy Metal Hamsters
It must feel nice to be a Heavy Metal Hamster
Nothing sets you free like our Heavy Metal Hamsters

A 20th century Fox came by
A gold tipped cigarette high in his jaws
contracts, PDs, Nose-Bags, TV-shows
And everything with no remorse

Things are settled now for our Heavy Metal Hamsters
Fame up to your brows, oh Heavy Metal Hamster
A previously unknown lifestyle Heavy Metal Hamster

The sweet taste of success is strong
And everything inside goes wrong you see
With coloured furs, sunglasses
Tons of nuts to eat, they don't feel free

What is wrong with our Heavy Metal Hamster?
Look what they have done our Heavy Metal Hamsters
Where is the field to run for our Heavy Metal Hamsters
Some things are left undone for our Heavy Metal Hamsters

Now this reminds of a little ditty "mentioned" in a Clive Barker book:
(lyrics to be sung on the melody of "O Christmas Tree")
O woe is me
O woe is me
I used to have a Hamster Tree
But it got eaten by a newt
And now I've got no more cuddly fruit
O woe is me
O woe is me
I used to have a Hamster Tree

I thought I should put somthing Irish up, so here the lyrics to whiskey in the jar, the dubliners one.

As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Saying "Stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver

Chorus:
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

(Chorus)

I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure 't was no wonder
But Jenny blew me charges and she filled them up with water
Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

(Chorus)

't was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier
I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

(Chorus)

Now there's some take delight in the carriages a rolling
and others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
but I take delight in the juice of the barley
and courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

(Chorus)

If anyone can aid me 't is my brother in the army
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' through Killkenny
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny

(Chorus)

The Admiral's Song, from HMS Pinafore

When I was a lad I served a term
As office boy to an attorney's firm.
I cleaned the windows and I swept the floor,
And I polished up the handle of the big front door.
I polished up that handle so carefully,
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!

As office boy I made such a mark,
That they gave me the post of a junior clerk.
I served the writs with a smile so bland,
And I copied all the letters in a big round hand.
I copied all the letters in a hand so free,
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!

In serving writs I made such a name,
That an articled clerk I soon became.
I wore clean collars and a brand-new suit,
For the Pass Examination at the Institute.
And that Pass Examination did so well for me,
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!

Of legal knowledge I acquired such a grip.
That they took me into the partnership.
And that junior partnership, I ween,
Was the only ship that I ever had seen.
But that kind of ship so suited me,
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!

I grew so rich that I was sent
By a pocket borough into Parliament.
I always voted at my Party's call,
And I never thought of thinking for myself at all!
I thought so little, they rewarded me,
By making me the Ruler of the Queen's Navy!

Now, landsmen all, whoever you may be,
If you want to rise to the top of the tree--
If your soul isn't fettered to an office stool,
Be careful to be guided by this golden rule:
Stick close to your desks...and never go to sea...
And you all may be Rulers of the Queen's Navy!

Warrior of Ice - Rhapsody

Demons of abyss wait for my pride
on wings of glory I'll fly brave and wild
I'll stop your madness your thirst for blood
to bring them peace where love must reign

A while ago the elder told dark will fall again
my land will see the light no more my beloved Algalord
My horse run wild the beast is back to conquer my reign
the sea the hills rivers and lakes call my holy name

Fight your holy war raise your mighty sword and ride
You're the chosen face the evil son of holy ice

Mighty warrior for the legend ride again
from the hills for peace and love to the sea of gold
my land must be free

I cross the forest of the elves while my heart pounds fast
sky is grey wind no more time has stopped its race
My horse run wild the beast is back to conquer my reign
the sea the hills rivers and lakes call my holy name

Fight your holy war raise your mighty sword and ride
You're the chosen face the evil son of holy ice

Mighty warrior for the legend ride again
from the hills for peace and love to the sea of gold
my land must be free

March to hell Irengard brothers
togheter we'll face the flames fearless and brave
on the grass where blood we'll shed
flowers of real hope will bud again
And on the grass where blood we'll shed
flowers of hope will bud again

Now leave your soul castles united we'll be strong
I'll lead you to this holy war to save all our thrones
to give our people the joy to be free
to see our beloved sun shine again

Mighty warrior for the legend ride again
from the hills for peace and love to the sea of gold
my land must be free

The Wild Rover -The Dubliners

I've been a wild rover for many a year
And I spent all my money on whiskey and beer,
And now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more.

Chorus:
And it's no, nay, never,
No nay never no more,
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more.

I went to an ale-house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent.
I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay
Such a custom as yours I could have any day."

Chorus:

I took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight.
She said "I have whiskey and wines of the best
And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest."

Chorus:

I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son.
And if they caress me as ofttimes before
Sure I never will play the wild rover no more.

Chorus:

Nice Mccool, my dad used to listen to The Dubliners quite a lot. It's funny stuff.

I truly enjoy this song and the lyrics to it.

The Irish Rover - The Pouges Ft. The Dubliners

On the fourth of july, 1806
We set sail from the sweet cove of cork
We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
For the grand city hall in new york
'twas a wonderful craft
She was rigged fore and aft
And oh, how the wild wind drove her
She stood several blasts
She had twenty seven masts
And they called her the irish rover

We had one million bags of the best sligo rags
We had two million barrels of stone
We had three million sides of old blind horses hides
We had four million barrels of bones
We had five million hogs
And six million dogs
Seven million barrels of porter
We had eight million bails of old nanny-goats' tails
In the hold of the irish rover

There was awl mickey coote
Who played hard on his flute
When the ladies lined up for a set
He was tootin' with skill
For each sparkling quadrille
Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet
With his smart witty talk
He was **** of the walk
And he rolled the dames under and over
They all knew at a glance
When he took up his stance
That he sailed in the irish rover

There was barney mcgee
From the banks of the lee
There was hogan from county tyrone
There was johnny mcgurk
Who was scared stiff of work
And a man from westmeath called malone
There was slugger o'toole
Who was drunk as a rule
And fighting bill treacy from dover
And your man, mick maccann
From the banks of the bann
Was the skipper of the irish rover

We had sailed seven years
When the measles broke out
And the ship lost its way in the fog
And that whale of a crew
Was reduced down to two
Just myself and the captain's old dog
Then the ship struck a rock
Oh lord! what a shock
The bulkhead was turned right over
Turned nine times around
And the poor old dog was drowned
And the las of the irish rover

Painkiller - Judas Priest

Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He's half man and half machine

Rides the Metal Monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller

Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas

Through boiling clouds of thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller

Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns

Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave

With mankind ressurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller

Alice Cooper - Poison
Plain, delicious, shock rock .

Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill

I want to love you but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison, I don't want to break these chains

Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat

I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (And pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (Deep in)
I want to kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

I want to love you but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison, yeah
I don't want to break these chains
Poison, oh no
Runnin' deep inside my veins,
Burnin' deep inside my veins
It's poison
I don't wanna break these chains
Poison

Nice selection.

Just thought I'd share my current favorite......


"Good People" by: Jack Johnson

You win
Its your show, now
So whats it gunna be
Cause people
Will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
It's bad gettin worse so

[Chorus:]
Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that and
With a rattle a tat
Testing one two,
Now whatcha gunna do?
Bad news, misused,
Got too much to lose
Gimme some truth
Now whos side are we on?
Whatever you say
Turn on the boob tube
Im in the mood to obey
So lead me astray by the way, now

Where'd all the good people go?
I've been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

Sitting round feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debris
Can you feel it?
Yo interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great its all gunna be
You might notice some hesitation
Cause whats important to you is not important to me
Way down by the edge of your reasons
Its beginning to show
And all I wanna know is..

Whered all the good people go
Ive been changin channels
I dont see them on the tv shows
Whered all the good people go
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing one, two
Now what you gonna do?
Bad news, misused, gimme some truth
You got too much to lose
Whose side are we on?
Whatever you say
Run the resolut but in the mood to obey
Station to station desensitizing the nation

I can't post the lyrics to my favorite song by Chimaira because well, it doesn't have any. It's called Implements of Destruction, and I love it.

However, I was listening to this one, and it made me laugh.

Something for giles

Just came up on winamp and I giggled to myself.

Been playing this song like crazy since I got the CD

Worth Fighting For- Judas Priest

You said I could never find
A way to ease your mind
That where I'd go
You'd wind up in the dust
I tried so hard to have you reach
Another side of me
Instead you went to nowhere
And forgot

So I wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Desert heat can wear you down
But still I'm rolling through
Did I see your figure in the haze?
I am driven by a thirst
To quench myself of love
The sun beats on me
For the price I've paid

So I wander on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Night road leads me on to a town of ghosts
Beckined by the glow of
Kerosene & tumbleweed

they're calling out(There're calling out)
Forever more(forever more)

I'm leaning in the wind
Head bowed down from what I saw
My shadow for a friend
Still some things are worth fighting for

So I'm moving on
Asking where you might have gone
From what I knew before
Some things are worth fighting for

Worth fighting for

The Sentence - Griffin

The sun is burning
There's no water to be found
Your fate's to walk the desert
With your load forever on

Your load is all the fates
Of the ones you left behind
Your load is the misery
Of those you misled until blind

Here's for your sins
Prepeare for your ride
Welcome to forever
Time to pay for your lies

Scream
Your lungs out in agony
Beg
For mercy in vain
Burn
Explore the atrocity
Live forever in pain!

[Guitar solo]

Pleading with your eyes in confusion
Crying tearless in fear
Drooling vultures circling above
Getting ready for their meal

You dream of the day
With a flame in your heart
When your dues have been paid
And you will be set free
But no man alive will ever hear you plea
And the worst of it all:
The worst is yet to be!

Here's for your sins
Prepare for your ride
Welcome to forever
Time to pay for your lies

Scream
Your lungs out in agony
Beg
For mercy in vain
Burn
Explore the atrocity
Live forever in pain!

Helloween - Mirror, Mirror

My age you cannot me certain
This spell cannot be broken
Visions of eternal youth
We share one face together
Associates forever
Only you know the truth

Mirror mirror on the wall
Whose the master of them all?
Mirror Mirror split in two
Look at me, who are you?

I swim in my reflection
Mirror answer my question
Tell me what I want to hear
I see a perfect creature
Contracted human feature
I'll drown you with your vanity

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Whose the sickest of them all
Mirror Mirror split in two
Look at me - who are you?

No, my life is beautiful
I said, my life is beautiful

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Whose the sickest one of all
Mirror mirror split in two
Look at me - Who are you
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Whose the master of them all
Mirror Mirror split in two
Look at me - who are you?

DIO - Rainbow in the Dark

When there's lightning - it always brings me down
Cause it's free and I see that it's me
Who's lost and never found
I cry for magic - I feel it dancing in the light
But it was cold - I lost my hold
To the shadows of the night

There's no sign of the morning coming
You've been left on your own
Like a Rainbow in the Dark

Do your demons - do they ever let you go
When you've tried - do they hide - deep inside
Is it someone that you know
You're a picture - just an image caught in time
We're a lie - you and I
We're words without a rhyme

There's no sign of the morning coming
You've been left on your own
Like a Rainbow in the Dark

When there's lightning - it always brings me down
Cause it's free and I see that it's me
Who's lost and never found
Feel the magic - feel it dancing in the air
But it's fear - and you'll hear
It calling you beware

There's no sign of the morning coming
There's no sight of the day
You've been left on your own
Like a Rainbow in the Dark

i don't know the whole song only the chorus and little of that as it is but i like it it's called since you been gone.... (please forgive any mistakes with the lyrics as i can't fully remember how the song goes)
