Re: Impossible Challenge: Find a Song with Better Lyrics
wow i knew before opening this thread exactly what it would look like and that it would suck.
has anyone ever read song lyrics with any sort of satisfaction? if you don't know the song, the best lyrics in the world are worthless and if you know it, just the name of the song would have sufficed.

Re: Impossible Challenge: Find a Song with Better Lyrics
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly. I'm crying. Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come. Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday. MAN, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob Mister City P'liceman sitting Pretty little policemen in a row. See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run. I'm crying. I'm cry------------ing, I'm crying. Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye. Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess, Boy, you been a naughty girl and you let your Knickers down. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob. Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun. If the sun don't come, you get a tan from Standing in the English rain. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob, goo goo goo g'joob. Expert texpert choking smokers, Don't you think the joker laughs at you? (ho ho ho, he he he, ha ha ha) See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snide. I'm crying. Semolina Pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower. Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna. Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob, goo goo goo g'joob, goo goo g'joob, goo goo goo g'joob, goo goo (rhythmical speaking along with juba's). Juba juba juba, juba, juba, juba, juba, juba, juba juba. Juba juba..... (speaking) --Repeat (eventually juba's will stop) and fade until end.-- during the fade out background vocals: [Simultaneously:] 'Everybody smokes pot' and 'Oompa, oompa, stick it up your joompa'

Re: Impossible Challenge: Find a Song with Better Lyrics
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see. T'was Grace that taught... my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear... the hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares... we have already come. T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far... and Grace will lead us home. The Lord has promised good to me... His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be... as long as life endures. When we've been here ten thousand years... bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise... then when we've first begun. "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me.... I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see.

Re: Impossible Challenge: Find a Song with Better Lyrics
Artist: Jennings Waylon
Song: I've Always Been Crazy I've always been crazy and the trouble that it's put me through I've been busted for things that I did, and I didn't do I can't say I’m proud of all of the things that I’ve done But I can say I’ve never intentionally hurt anyone I've always been different with one foot over the line Winding up somewhere one step ahead or behind It ain't been so easy but I guess I shouldn't complain I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane Beautiful lady are you sure that you understand The chances your taking loving a free living man Are you really sure you really want what you see Be careful of something that's just what you want it to be I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane Nobody knows if it's something to bless or to blame So far I ain't found a rhyme or a reason to change I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane
