Song Lyric Of The Day

[Rev. Powell]

There was a time, now very far away,
When we set up together, I and she.
I brought the brain, and she supplied the breast;
I saw her right and she looked after me.
A way of life, then, if not quite the best.
And when I client came I'd slide out of our bed
And treat him nice, and go and have a drink instead.
And when he paid up, I'd address him "Sir,
Come any night you feel you fancy her."
That time's long passed, but what would I not give
To see that whorehouse where we used to live?

--Tango Ballad (from the Threepenny Opera)

[Psycho Circus]

"Between two fires we collect our thoughts
 Are we all just liars? And our truth is only bought
 For it's suspicion that turns it's back on you
 Suspicion in the masses down to the very few
 You cannot trust your brother
 For the fear he's after you"

-Liege Lord

[El Misfit]

I am the one, your help I’ve refused
Your offering hand just set off the fuse
I am the rock that pushes away
I gave up tomorrow to spite today

Too proud to beg
Too stubborn to try
I’d look in your face
And spit in your eye

But I’m willing to find what’s really inside
And show I am strong enough to

Trust in you
Trust in you
Trust in you
Pull me up
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – pull me up
Pull me up
Cause I am ready

I am the one who blames only you
The flame in my eyes now blackens my view
I am the one who wanders alone
Darkness inside blocks how you’ve shone

Who tied the other
End of my rope?
I want to move on
I want to have hope

So I’m willing to change
I’m going to try
To show I am strong enough to

Trust in you
Trust in you
Trust in you
Pull me up
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – pull me up
Pull me up
Cause I am waiting

Strong enough to

Trust in you
Trust in you
Trust in you
Pull me up
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – shadow to light
Quo modo – pull me up
Pull me up
Cause I am ready

The Offspring- Trust in You

"You can eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans,
I eat more chicken any man ever seen."

--Howlin Wolf, "Backdoor Man"

Give me, one kiss and I'll be happy.
Just, just to be with you..
Give me, give me, a chance to be near you.
Because, because, I-i love you.

Primal Scream - Movin' On Up Now

[El Misfit]

"Hip hop" "hip hop" "is dead"
"Hip--hip hop" "hip hop" "is dead"
"Hip--hip hop" "hip--hip hop" "is dead"
"Hip--hip hop" "hip hop" "hip hop"

If hip hop should die before I wake
I'll put an extended clip inside of my AK
Roll to every station, murder the DJ
Roll to every station, murder the DJ

Hip hop just died this mornin'
And she's dead, she's dead

Yeah, n***az smoke, laugh, party, and die in the same corner
Get cash, live fast, body their man's mama
Rich ass n***az is ridin' with three llamas
Revenge in their eyes, Hennesy and the ganja
Word to the wise with villain state of minds
Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind
Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind
(Grindin', hittin' Brazilian dimes from behind)
Whenever, if ever, I roll up, it's sown up
Any ghetto will tell ya Nas helped grow us up
My face once graced promotional Sony trucks
Hundred million in billin', I helped build 'em up
Gave my n***a my right, I could have gave left
So like my girl Foxy, a n***a went Def
So n***a, who's your top ten?
Is it MC Shan? Is it MC Ren?

Hip hop just died this mornin'
And she's dead, she's dead

The bigger the cap, the bigger the peelin'
Come through, something ill, missin' the ceilin'
What influenced my raps? Stick ups and killings
Kidnappings, project buildings, drug dealings
Criticize that, why is that?
Cuz Nas rap is compared to legitimized crap
Cuz we love to talk on ass we gettin'
Most intellectuals will only half listen
So you can't blame jazz musicians
Or David Stern with his NBA fashion issues
Oh I they like me--in my white tee
You can't ice me, we here for life B
On my second marriage, hip hop's my first wifey
And for that we not takin' it lightly
If hip hop should die we die together
Bodies in the morgue lie together
All together now

Hip hop just died this mornin'
Hip hop just died this mornin'
Hip hop just died this mornin'
And she's dead, she's dead

[crowd chanting "Hip hop!" becomes beat]

Everybody sound the same, commercialize the game
Reminiscin' when it wasn't all business
If it got where it started
So we all gather here for the dearly departed
Hip hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became a man then a mobster
If the guys let me get my last swig of Vodka
R.I.P., we'll donate your lungs to a rasta
Went from turntables to mp3s
From "Beat Street" to commercials on Mickey D's
From gold cables to Jacobs
From plain facials to Botox and face lifts
I'm lookin' over my shoulder
It's about eighty n***az from my hood that showed up
And they came to show love
Sold out concert and the doors are closed shut

Nas- Hip Hop is Dead

"In heaven there is no beer,
That's why we drink it here."

"Smile for the camera, you take a pretty picture
 I'd like to hang one on my wall
 But I get too sentimental, seeing your face everyday
 I like the way you mistreat love
 But I keep coming back for more
 Well, I like abuse don't shut the door"

-Vain

[retrorussell]

Steppin' out, the weekend's open wide
Fill it up, let's blast the jams and ride

While we're cruisin' around in the street
Listen up for the party in feet
Slap me five, that's the place we've arrived
It's alive..
Ev'rybody take it to the top
We're gonna stomp
All night
In the neighbourhood
Gonna feel alright
Gonna stomp
All night
Gonna party
'Til the morning light,
Stomp!
--Brothers Johnson, "Stomp" C 1980 A&M Records

[El Misfit]

That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I said that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die

My, my
Frank Sinatra- that's life

"Friday night and the stakes are high
 She's got a lot of money to earn
 Workin' the streets till the crack of dawn
 Workin' till her body burns, burns, burns"

[El Misfit]

Help
you're making my ears bleed
you need a muzzle

why are you p**sed off all the time
didn't your mum give you a cuddle?

you're the type of guy who could die
of a heart attack just in the shower

you need to chill out for a minute
and smoke weed for an hour

every time I watch your show
all you do is scream at me
and your face looks like a sh*t I took
high on LSD

I'm John Lennon, I'm a legend
I can see through all your tricks

I wonder how much George Bush paid
you to suck his d*ck.

You F*cking long hair,
living in your yellow submarine
well you're about to get sunk
by the right wing political machine

stop your presses Lennon,
you call me MR. Bill O'Reilly

When it comes to squashing Limeys
I come recommended highly

you're weak, between you and me
there' no comparison

I'll beat you so bad you'll weep gently
like George Harrison

you're Paul McCartney's b*tch,
with less talent than Ringo

and I'd rather suck George Bush's d*ck,
than Yoko Ono's

Well you can't buy me love,
but I'll kick your *ss for free
I'll take Maxwell's silver hammer,
and give you a lobotomy

I'm tired of how you scheme to stir
the people up,
why don't you just take a vacation
and SHUT the F*CK UP?

Because I'm evil,
heart blacker than Don Cheadle,
ten thousand dollar shoes I use
to stomp out a Beatle.

Don't tell me to shut the f*ck up,
that's how I survive, now here's Sting,
what?
F*ck it, we'll do it live!
John Lennon vs. Bill O'Reilly- Epic Rap Battles of History

[El Misfit]

Let me tell you about my life
Let me tell you about my dreams
Let me tell you about the things that happen
Always real to me

Let me tell you of my hope
Of my need to reach the sky
Let me take you on an awkward journey
Let me tell you why
Let me tell you why

Why should these curses be laid upon me
I won't be forgiven 'till I can break free
What did I do to deserve all this guilt
Pay for my sins with the sale of my soul
Demons are trapped all inside of my head
My hopes are gone reach for heaven from hell

My sins are many my guilt is too heavy
The pressure of knowing of hiding what I know
I'm able to see things
Things I don't want to see
The lives of a thousand souls
Weigh heavy down on me

I know they're crying for help reaching out
The burden of them will take me down as well
The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain
Reincarnate still in me live again

Someone to save me
Something to save me from myself
To bring the salvation
To exorcise this hell

Someone to save me
Something to save me from myself
To bring the salvation
To exorcise this hell

Someone to save me
Something to save me from my hell
A destination
Away from this nightmare

Someone to save me
Something to save me from myself
To bring the salvation
To exorcise this hell
