Well I suppose I have to come out sometime as a lover of cheesy pop .. its S Club Don't stop



How about



And as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end

That bullshit is bullshit, it just goes by different names

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast

[SlayerSydney]

Jam--Beat Surrender



How about this one:



Made a lightning trip to Vienna,

eating chocolate cake in a bag.

The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,

They look just like two gurus in drag".

Christ you know it ain't easy,

You know how hard it can be.

"Those girls were flashing their breasts? And no one thought to get the Lesbians?" ~~My comment to the host of a party I recently attended.

[FlyingPoppy]

That's the Beatles- Ballad of John and Yoko



In side lakes of corduroy I've been

Heard stories of velveteen

Twenty hours later I fill the room

With bad sex and bad tea

Some say they're going to a place called Glory and I ain't saying it ain't a fact,
but I've heard that I'm on the road to puragtory and I don't like the sound of that,
I believe in love and I live my life accordingly

The Breeders - When I was a Painter



"Now I think I know what you tried to say to me

And how you suffered for your santity

And how you tried to set them free"

"Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last.

To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee, is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns" - C.Bronte, Preface to Jane Eyre

[BabyJune]

That would be "Losing Lisa" - Ben Folds Five



Here's another...



You know, we could just go up there and hang out

Like open the fridge and stuff

There would already be laid out foods for us

Like little pre-wrapped sausages and things



They have pre-wrapped sausages but they don't have pre-wrapped bacon

Well, can you blame 'em

Uh, yeah



Keep the love alive... + =

Barenaked Ladies---If I Had A Million Dollars







I want to hold the hand inside you

I want to take a breath that's true

I look to you and I see nothing

I look to you to see the truth

You live your life

You go in shadows

You'll come apart and you'll go black

Some kind of night into your darkness

Colors your eyes with what's not there.

Fade Into You - Mazzy Star



Just when you think she's wearing thin

She's walking out with the biggest man you've ever seen

You're never gonna see my face again

It took some time so here I am

"Cheese falls apart. It crumbles apart so much. You can't ever put it back the way it was. I'm sorry, it's just...you know, it takes time to eat Cheshire cheese. You can't just go for coffee and crackers and expect cheesey goodness..." ~ Cheesetropy

[Zippy]

Goodbye Cruel World - Shakespears Sister





You Know I coundn't be me if it wasn't for you

I look like shit and feel like plastic but I'll get through

you know it's plain to see, what's going to do

as long as it don't get too drastic, then we can't lose

Middleman by Terrorvision



Ok:



Take this pink ribbon off my eyes

I'm exposed

And it's no big surprise

Don't you think I know

Exactly where I stand

This world is forcing me

To hold your hand

God! What kind of lesbians are you?!

Oh, there's No Doubt that this is "Just a Girl." Hehe. I'm so funny.



Next up:



"It's so much easier to go,

than face all this pain here all alone."

"What came first, the music or the misery?

People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over.

Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did

I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?"

[Warduke]

Easier To Run by Linkin Park



This time, taking it away

I've got a problem, with me getting in the way,

Not by design.

So I take my face and bash it into a mirror.

I won't have to see the pain (Bleed, Bleed)

This state is elevating, as the hurt turns into hating.

Anticipating, all the fucked up feelings again.

I see angels on Ariels in leather and chrome, swooping down from heaven to carry me home"

It was I'll Never Let You Go by Steelheart.



Let's try this one...



If I say that I could be your one and only

Promise, promise, promise that you'll never leave me lonely

I just wanna be the one you need

Oh Baby

I just wanna be the one to serve you

Sometimes I feel as if I don't deserve you

I cherish every moment that we share



Actually slownontheuptake, it's Shai that sang it, the acapella version

Backstreet Boys "If I Ever Fall in Love" {hangs head in shame}



Pressed against her face

I could feel her insecurity

Her mother’d been a drunk

And her father was obscurity

But nothin’ ever came

From a life that was a simple one

So pull yourself together girl

And have a little fun



Well she took me by the hand

I could see she was a fiery one

Her legs ran all the way

Up to heaven and past Avalon

Slainte! "Devil's Dance Floor" by Flogging Molly



Let's go "old school":



"Tim Finnegan lived in Walkin Street,

A gentle Irishman mighty odd

He had a brogue both rich and sweet,

An' to rise in the world he carried a hod"



ETA: The above is an old Irish drinking song, "Finnegan's Wake"



Try this:



"Oh, mirror in the sky -What is love?

Can the child within my heart rise above?

Can I sail through the changin'...ocean tides

Can I handle the seasons of my life?

I don't know.....I don't know"

I love Fleetwood Mac and that's "Landslide."



Hmm... okay here's one:



Did you think that I would cry,

on the phone?

Do you know what it feels like,

being alone?

"Help Pour Out The Rain" by Buddy Jewell...right?



Try this one, it's really easy I think :



But I know I don't possess you

So go away, God bless you

You are still my love and my life

Still my one and only

That's exactly right, Viv.



Yours is: "My Love, My Life," by Abba



This one might be too easy, but I just can't get this song out of my head lately.



They took all the footage off my T.V.

Said it's too disturbing for you and me

It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say

If it was up to me I'd show it everyday

Some say this country's just out looking for a fight

Well after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

How about



I've waited hours for this

I've made myself so sick

I wish I'd stayed asleep today

I never thought that this day would end

I never thought that tonight could ever be

Black Sabbath "Iron Man"



I follow with my eyes 'til they crash

Imagine what my body would sound like

Slamming against those rocks

When it lands

Will my eyes

Be closed or open?

She cries to the heaven above

There is a stone in my heart

How do you like to go up in a swing, up in the air so blue? Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall, till I can see so wide, river and trees and cattle and all over the countryside--

Till I look down on the garden green, down on the roof so brown--Up in the air I go flying again, up in the air and down! - The Swing - RLStevenson

Sade „Pearls“

We saw them lying on the kitchen floor.

We were grateful for they both did their best



Have fun

Left with her liberty,

Never known as a non-believer
