seems like ev'ry one

is out lookin' for the sun

singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates

but it'll shine when it shines

you might think I'm wastin' time

but I'm just a good old boy that's learned to wait :)

Ozark Mountain Daredevils - It'll Shine When It Shines
 
I think my favorite is from Acid Bath, "I take the gun out of my mouth & point it at you..." and another that reminds me where I came from was Marilyn Manson, "Shoot here & the world gets smaller. shoot, shoot, shoot, motherf^(#&%"
 
"And even alongside old sad eyes, who says
"Opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut"
All I know is that I'm sick of everything that my money can buy
A fool who wastes his life god rests his guts"

Here Comes A Regular - The Replacements

dangit... someone beat me to Paul Westerberg


my favorite:

Jesus rides beside me
He never buys any smokes

Can't Hardly Wait - The Replacements
 
Yeah bring me champagne when I'm thirsty.
Bring me reefer when I want to get high.
Yeah bring me champagne when I'm thirsty.
Bring me reefer when I want to get high.
Well you know when I'm lonely
Bring my woman set her right down here by my side.

MUDDY WATERS - CHAMPAIGN AND REEFER LYRICS
 
Them that don't know him want like him
and those that do sometimes want know how to take him
he aint wrong he's just different
but his pride want let him do things that you think are right

Waylon Jennings -MAMA DONT LET YOU BABYS GROW UP TO BE COWBOYS
 
Early in the morning
Step into the street
Light me up a cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet
 
Then I took out my razor blade
Then I did what God forbade
Now the cops are after me
But I proved that I'm no sissy

Ramones - 53rd and 3rd
 
In the end we're all just chalklines on the concrete
Drawn only to be washed away
For the time that I've been given
I am what I am

Five Finger Death Punch - Never Enough
 
Given that true intellectual and emotional compatability
Are at the very least difficult
If not impossible to come by
We could always opt for the more temporal gratification
Of sheer physical attraction
That wouldn't make you a shallow person
Would it

If Ford is to Chevrolet
What Dodge is to Chrysler
What Corn Flakes are to Post Toasties
What the clear blue sky is to the deep blue sea
What Hank Williams is to Neil Armstrong
Can you doubt we were made for each other

Look
I understand too little too late
I realize there are things you say and do
You can never take back
But what would you be if you didn't even try
You have to try
So after a lot of thought
I'd like to reconsider
Please
If it's not too late
Make it a cheeseburger
 
Wow, just read through a few pages here. Some really great ones posted. Picked one below.

You can't avoid her.
She's in the air... in the air
In between molecules of
Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide.

.......

You walk up to her.
Ask her to dance.
She says, "Hey, baby, I just might take the chance."
You say, "It's a good thing
That you float in the air... in the air.
That way there's no way I will crush your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces

Only in Dreams - Weezer
 
My great grandfather was a welder
He helped build the titanic
He certainly didn't think
That it was unsinkable

Titanic Terrarium - The Tragically Hip
 
Some balls are held for charity
And some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure
They're the balls that I like best
My balls are always bouncing
To the left and to the right
It's my belief that my big balls
Should be held every night

Big Balls - AC/DC
 
The one that got me through college, after some mistakes lead to the end of probably the best relationship I've ever had.

I've dealt with my ghosts and faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
Ive found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once Im at peace with myself
Ive been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
Im movin on

-Moving On, Rascall Flatts
 
WOW, I can't believe it's not here. EVERY teenagae male felt this way in 79'

She's your adolescent dream,
Schoolboy stuff, a sticky sweet romance.
And she makes you want to scream,
Wishing you could get inside her pants.
So, you fantasize away.
And while you're squeezing her, you thought you heard her saying...

"Good girls don't,
Good girls don't,
Good girls don't, but I do."


THE KNACK
 
I feel like running away
I'm still so far from home
You say I'll never change but what the f&%k do you know?
I'll burn it all to the ground, before I let you run
Please forgive me, I can't forgive you now.

Five Finger Death Punch- Remember Everything
 
But i'll take my time anywhere
Free to speak my mind
And I'll take my find anywhere
Anywhere I may roam
Where I lay my head is home
Carved upon my stone
My body lie, but still I roam

Wherever I May Roam - The Almighty Metallica :rockin:
 
Stagecoach lady, hour glass body, making thing's glow in the night
Well, she would if she could, and she'd be good if she would, only tell her lover she be out tonight.
Cuz I'm a bad, a lonely school boy, and I'm a rat
And it's too bad I can't get me some of that
Aerosmith - SOS
 
This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality
Embrace this moment
Remember
We are eternal
All this pain is an illusion

TOOL Parabola
 
Do you have a problem,
Would you like someone to solve them,
Would you like someone to share in your misery?
Now, I don't know the answer, but I know a flamenco dancer
Who will dance for you if you will dance for me

Her name's Miranda
She's a Rudolph Valentino fan
And she doesn't claim to understand
She bakes brownies for the boys in the band.

Early Sunday morning
When the sermon lines are forming
And Saturday night is the memories that it gave.
She's busy in the pantry, far away from Elmer Gantry
Who is busy baking souls that he may save.
Everybody's soul but Miranda

(Chorus)

The dice of death are calling
While the truck of time is falling
By the thumb stuck out on the highway of the years.
The tollgate at the turnpike is ignored by those who hitch-hike
And the Howard Johnson food is made of fear
But not Miranda

(Chorus)

The sun burnt skin is peeling
On the doctors who are healing
And the license plates are laughing on the car.
The pain is so exciting
And everyone's inviting
You to look upon their operation scars.
But not Miranda

The condiments are clashing
While commercial planes are crashing
And the music of the evening is so sweet
Now fully in agreement
Oh, their feet have found the cement
And they all believe the signs are on the street
Her name's Miranda

In the bar we're gin and scotching
While the FBI is watching
They are tape recording every other word
The bartender is bleeding
Pardon me, I just was leaving
as another clever voice repeats absurd
But not Miranda

Phil Ochs
 
I'm the one who's got to die when it's time for me to die.
So let me live my life the way I want to.

- If 6 was 9 by Jimi Hendrix
 
From Neal Young,Old Man;
Lullabys,look in your eyes,
run around,
The same old town.
Dosen't mean that much to me,
to mean that much to you.
I've been first & last,
look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last,
strollin home to you.
Old man,take a look at my life,
I'm a lot like you.
I need someone to love me the whole day through.
Old one,take a look in my eyes,
& you can tell that's true.
Old man,take a look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were...
 
I got a freaky ole lady
name a cocaine Katy
who embroideries on my jeans
I got my poor ole grey haired daddy
drivin' my limousine
Now it's all designed to blow our minds
but our minds won't really be blown
Like the blow that'll getcha
when you get your picture
on the cover of the Rollin' Stone

Dr. Hook
