name this lyric
 

guess the song and artist of the lyric given by the poster above you...then post one of our own

Hey...don't you wanna go down
like some displaced cosmonaut

Re: name this lyric
 

'Hey, Like being stoned' - Low


"... there was a verse, that I was gonna write --

I haven't yet, but there's still a chance I might."

Re: name this lyric
 

Someday I Suppose- mmbt0ne

dom and kemyster- that would be Low by Cracker, and the verse is "like being stone". i'd say that they're probably the most under-rated band of the 1990s and david lowery is the best lyricist of the 1990s.

What this world needs is a good two dollar room/
'n a good two dollar broom

Captain Beefheart - Buggy Boogie Woogie

"Talk of yesterday
And she will show her brothers
Photographed in callous clothes
Say tommorow
And she'll say, "Come find me on a beach
And there will be no moon."
But say today
And she will kiss your face
And maybe forget"

Re: name this lyric
 

Communion cups and someone's coat- Iron and Wine

(hope you didn't use google for the beefheart lyrics. [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] cb and hmb).

i'll choose a bit less obscure one this time:

"And the love that loves the love that loves the love that loves the love that loves to love the love that loves to love the love that loves."

that line just [censored] kills me.

(sorry for being a repeat poster, dom. apparently others don't think that this thread is as cool as i do.)

[censored] me, it's Van Morrison. I want to say Cyprus Avenue? Could be Madame George though, my memory is fuzzy. Or even another I can't remember. (I can name a few it's not...)

Personally, I love the thread idea. I just haven't seen any lyrics I recognized so I couldn't participate. I wonder if most people who read it think the same thing.

Re: name this lyric
 

it could also be "Sweet Thing" or perhaps "Beside You". My memory is fuzzy since I haven't listened to Astral Weeks in so long.

ne, ne travaillez jamais:
no, never work, that's what they say.

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, and the song is 2nd Ave, 11 AM.

"I'm not a miracle
And you're not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere"

damien rice - amie

next one:
Now you wear your skin like iron
Your breath's as hard as kerosene
You weren't your mama's only boy
But her favorite one it seems
She began to cry when you said goodbye
And sank into your dreams
