Your favourite lyrics?

Still, we keep dancing in this Indiana rain/ And no matter how far-fetched it seems/ I will keep hold of my dreams of/ Me and Diana Ross on the big screen. It’s 1963

And I feel so much older now
And you're much older too
How's your husband and how's the kids?
You know that I got married too?

One of my favourites of old Tom Frost. Fantastically transporting. Thing about lyrics is they're not poetry, and they need to be sung, what looks like nothing written on a page can be devastating when sung.

Where nothing's wrong and no one's asking
But the fear's so strong it leaves you gasping
No way to last out here like this for long
'Cause everywhere I go, I know
Everywhere I go, I know
All my happiness is gone
All my happiness is gone
It's all gone somewhere beyond
All my happiness is gone

... And it is no wonder, " said the king
"That my daughter's love you did win
For if I was a woman, as I am a man
My bedfellow you would have been"
"Now will you marry my daughter Janet
By the truth of your right hand?
Oh will you marry my daughter Janet
I'll make you lord of my land"
"Well yes, I'll marry your daughter Janet
By the truth of my right hand
Well yes I'll marry your daughter Janet
But I'll not be the lord of your land"
He's mounted her on a milk-white steed
Himself on a dapple grey
He has made her the lady of as much land
As she shall ride in a long summer's day

Yeah, I could think of many more lyrics but can't split then from the melody. That song of Tom's is one of the few that work (just...) on their own.

Hearing that for the first time was most unsettling.

Hearing it every time makes me very calm

I was sure if I should post this here or in the memes thread?

Chickenshit Conformist-Dead Kennedys

Cock-rock metal's like a bad laxative
It just don't move me, ya know?
The music's okay when there's more ideas than solos
Do we really need the attitude, too?
