    The Who: Won't Get Fooled Again

    We'll be fighting in the streets
    With our children at our feet
    And the morals that they worship will be gone
    And the men who spurred us on
    Sit in judgment of all wrong
    They decide and the shotgun sings the song

    I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
    Take a bow for the new revolution
    Smile and grin at the change all around
    Pick up my guitar and play
    Just like yesterday
    Then I'll get on my knees and pray
    We don't get fooled again

    The change it had to come
    We knew it all along
    We were liberated from the fold, that's all
    And the world looks just the same
    And history ain't changed
    'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

    I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
    Take a bow for the new revolution
    Smile and grin at the change all around
    Pick up my guitar and play
    Just like yesterday
    Then I'll get on my knees and pray
    We don't get fooled again
    No, no!

    I'll move myself and my family aside
    If we happen to be left half alive
    I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
    For I know that the hypnotized never lie
    Do ya?

    Yeah!

    There's nothing in the streets
    Looks any different to me
    And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
    And the parting on the left
    Is now parting on the right
    And the beards have all grown longer overnight

    I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
    Take a bow for the new revolution
    Smile and grin at the change all around
    Pick up my guitar and play
    Just like yesterday
    Then I'll get on my knees and pray
    We don't get fooled again
    Don't get fooled again
    No, no!

    Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

    Meet the new boss
    Same as the old boss

    Subdivisons, Rush

    Sprawling on the fringes of the city
    In geometric order, an insulated border
    In between the bright lights and the far unlit unknown

    Growing up it all seems so one-sided
    Opinions all provided
    The future pre-decided
    Detached and subdivided in the mass production zone

    Nowhere is the dreamer
    Or the misfit so alone

    Subdivisions ---
    In the high school halls, in the shopping malls
    Conform or be cast out

    Subdivisions ---
    In the basement bars, in the backs of cars
    Be cool or be cast out

    Any escape might help to smooth the unattractive truth
    But the suburbs have no charms to soothe the restless dreams of youth


    Drawn like moths we drift into the city
    The timeless old attraction
    Cruising for the action
    Lit up like a firefly
    Just to feel the living night

    Some will sell their dreams for small desires
    Or lose the race to rats
    Get caught in ticking traps
    And start to dream of somewhere to relax their restless flight

    Somewhere out of a memory
    Of lighted streets on quiet nights...

    EDIT: incredible live cover on a theater rooftop

    My own kind of Hat

    By: Marvelous Merle


    There's cowboys and outlaws, right guys and southpaws,
    Good dogs and all kinds of cats.
    Dirt roads and white lines and all kinds of stop signs,
    But I stand right here where I'm at,
    'Cause I wear My Own Kind Of Hat.

    There's two kind of lovers and two kind of brothers,
    And two kind of babies to hold.
    There's two kind of cherries and two kind of fairies,
    And two kind of mothers I'm told, and told

    Cowboys and outlaws, right guys and southpaws,
    Good dogs and all kinds of cats.
    Dirt roads and white lines and all kinds of stop signs,
    But I stand right here where I'm at,
    'Cause I wear My Own Kind Of Hat.

    There's two kind of brothers and two kind of lovers,
    And two kind of babies to hold.
    There's two kind of cherries and two kind of fairies,
    And two kind of mothers I'm told, and told

    Cowboys and outlaws, right guys and southpaws,
    Good dogs and all kinds of cats.
    Dirt roads and white lines and all kinds of stop signs,
    But I stand right here where I'm at,
    'Cause I wear My Own Kind Of Hat.

    The Verve version, or the Ben Harper live version always brings me to tears, beautiful song. :knucks:

    "The Drugs Don't Work"

    All this talk of getting old
    It's getting me down my love
    Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
    This time I'm comin' down

    And I hope you're thinking of me
    As you lay down on your side
    Now the drugs don't work
    They just make you worse
    But I know I'll see your face again

    Now the drugs don't work
    They just make you worse
    But I know I'll see your face again

    But I know I'm on a losing streak
    'Cause I passed down my old street
    And if you wanna show, then just let me know
    And I'll sing in your ear again

    Now the drugs don't work
    They just make you worse
    But I know I'll see your face again

    'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
    Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead

    All this talk of getting old
    It's getting me down my love
    Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
    This time I'm comin' down

    Now the drugs don't work
    They just make you worse
    But I know I'll see your face again

    'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
    Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead

    But if you wanna show, just let me know
    And I'll sing in your ear again

    Now the drugs don't work
    They just make you worse
    But I know I'll see your face again

    Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
    Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
    Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
    Yeah, I know I'll see your face again

    I'm never going down, I'm never coming down
    No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
    I'm never coming down, I'm never going down
    No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
    (Repeat and Fade Out)

    The Ramones' lyrics were not pointless. They express the frustration, boredom, and powerlessness many young Americans feel in this country. "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue" is actually a genius lyric. A ton of emotion and meaning is summed up in two lines. I'm serious. Its pure genius. And nobody was doing that kind of stuff before they did.

    Look, I love Bob Dylan. I could listen to "Desolation Row" all day long. But there's something to be said for beauty in simplicity.

    Love that song... Might be my favorite Jimi Hendrix song.

    Favorite Line of the song: "Tomorrow he would sing his first warsong and fight his first battle
    But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night"


    I don't know why I like it, but I do. The whole little brave part is awesome IMO.

    Can someone please explain the girl in the wheelchair part to me??? Is it a UFO the girl sees or what?

    There was a young girl, whos heart was a frown
    cause she was crippled for life,
    And she couldnt speak a sound
    And she wished and prayed she could stop living,
    So she decided to die
    She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
    And to her legs she smiled you wont hurt me no more
    But then a sight shed never seen made her jump and say
    Look a golden winged ship is passing my way

    ---

    who knows it's hendrix man he was probably ripped on acid when he wrote the last line.

    The third verse recounts Jimi's mother Lucille in the hospital suffering from liver disease, wishing to die so she would suffer no more, "to her legs she smiled you won't hurt me no more." Lucille did have cirrhosis of the liver, but was recovering outside of Hospital, when she was admitted unconscious to hospital, where she died from a ruptured spleen caused by a blow from an unknown source, not a liver complaint as is often repeated, although this was listed as a contributing factor on her death certificate

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castles_Made_of_Sand_(song)#Interpretation

    also to me it is a sign of hope, something you've never seen like a golden ship can make someone who's even in the worst of situations have hope and that nothing lasts not even being paralyzed.. cuz at some point we're going to die and won't be paralyzed. at least i think? :lol:

    "Turn On Me"

    You can fake it for a while,
    Bite your tongue and smile,
    Like every mother does an ugly child.
    But the stars are leaking out,
    Like spittle from a cloud,
    Amassed resentment counting ounce and pound.

    You're entertaining any doubt,
    Because you had to know that I was fond of you,
    Fond of Y-O-U,
    Though I knew you masked your disdain.
    I can see that change was just too hard for us,
    Hard for us.
    You always had to hold the reigns,
    But where I'm headed, you just don't know the way.

    So affections fade away,
    And do adults just learn to play
    The most ridiculous, repulsive games?
    On the faith of ruddy sons,
    And the double-barreled guns,
    You better hurry,
    Rabbit, run, run, run.
    'Cause meeting you was fun,
    And there's a lot of hungry howlers in this one cell.
    We're taking it over,
    Their brittle, thorny stems,
    They break before they bend,
    And neither one of us is one of them.

    And the tails will never mend,
    'Cause you had it in for me so long ago.
    Boy, I still don't know,
    I don't know why and I don't care,
    Well, hardly anymore,
    If you'd only seen yourself hating me.
    Hating me,
    When I've been so much more than fair.
    But then you had to lay those feelings bare,
    One thing I know still got you scared,
    You're all that cold iron,
    And never once aired of our dead.

    You had to know that I was fond of you,
    Fond of Y-O-U.
    So I took your licks at the time,
    And to change like that is just so hard to do,
    Hard to do.
    Don't let it whip-crack your life,
    And bow out from the fight,
    'Cause oh, how your sisters will write.
    The worst part is over,
    Now, get back on that horse and ride.

    Do you ever walk alone
    Like a drifter in the dark
    Seeking out what isn't there
    Looking only for a spark
    From a girl who's all alone
    Maybe she's a driftin' too
    Like a shadow in the night
    Waitin just to be with you
    And then perhaps in love we'll stay
    Or fall and go your seperate ways
    Still searchin' for a spark
    Like a drifter in the dark

    Mentors - Sandwhich of Love ( A love song)

    It´s the sandwich of love, one below and one above
    In the sandwich of love, crustin´ and grossin´
    She hasn´t been laid in days
    Now she´s covered in Mayonnaise
    She´s a woman with no soul
    She´s got a guy in every hole
    This is fun and sweet
    We´re the buns and she´s the meat
    In the sandwich of love, one below and one above
    Over her body we shall roam
    Let´s hope she used birth-control foam
    Even if she didn´t who cares
    When we play our musical chairs
    Crustin´, grossin´,maxin´...
    It´s the sandwich of love, it´s the sandwich of love
    One below and one above
    In the sandwich of love, crustin´ and grossin´
    Come on guys, let´s put on a rubber
    And dig into her blubber
    Duce has to prove to be crass
    He sticks his dick right up her ***
    Sickie goes for a mount up front
    He sticks his throbbing sickle in her ****
    Mr. can´t was recovering from mace
    So he sat on her head and jacked in her face
    In the sandwich of love, one below and one above
    In the sandwich of love, crustin´ and grossin´...

    Hanging out with the horny girls The Scabs

    Hanging out with the horny girls
    That was kinda cool
    There was nothing I could think of
    That they wouldn't do

    They were quite bisexual
    And they were kind of nasty
    They were always naked
    And they took a lot of xtc

    Hanging out with the horny girls
    Was better in my head
    I tried to order pizza
    But they tied me to the bed

    It was quite an adventure
    And I think I got the clap
    They put their fingers in my butthole
    I couldn't take a nap

    Hanging out with the horny girls
    I nearly peed my pants
    When both there boyfriends
    Showed up at my house to kick my ***

    But if I had a nickel
    For everytime they ate each other out
    I'd have about 85 cents

    Copperhead Road
    (Steve Earle)
    Well my name's John Lee Pettimore
    Same as my daddy and his daddy before
    You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here
    He only came to town about twice a year
    He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line
    Everybody knew that he made moonshine
    Now the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad
    He headed up the holler with everything he had
    It's before my time but I've been told
    He never came back from Copperhead Road
    Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge
    Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge
    Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side
    Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside
    Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
    I still remember that rumblin' sound
    Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night
    Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right
    He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load
    You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road

    I volunteered for the Army on my birthday
    They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway
    I done two tours of duty in Vietnam
    And I came home with a brand new plan
    I take the seed from Colombia and Mexico
    I plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road
    Well the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air
    I wake up screaming like I'm back over there
