Favourite song lyrics

Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue

Why must you record my phone calls?
Are you planning a bootleg LP?
Said you've been threatened by gangsters
Now it's you, that's threatening me

Can't fight corruption with con tricks
They use the law to commit crime
And I dread, dread to think what the future will bring
When we're living in gangster time

Don't call me scar face

Can't interrupt while I'm talking
Or they'll confiscate all your guitars
And Catch 22 says if I sing the truth
They won't make me an overnight star

Don't offer us legal protection
They use the law to commit crime
I dread to think what the future will bring
When we're living in real gangster time

Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue
 
The kid is already breaking, and he's just a little boy
Throwing spiders and birds at children
Gathering flowers and like minded toys
Sitting awkward upon his pedestal
Exhaling mandalas from his mouth
We are wondering if he's alright
We are wondering if he still eats
We are wondering if we did wrong
When we told him that we believed
Is he soon to be subsumed
In the hissing sound of scrutiny?
Is he soon to be alone
With his fingers and thumbs shaking?
Yes I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I only really wanted to help
But I know you got to be careful
And you've got to always be strong
It's your gift, but it's sometimes your weakness too
You've just got to always be strong
Yes I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I did the best I knew how to do
Yes I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I wish I could have thought only of you
 
Crossing the field that leads to the cliff
Crossing yourself, you're running from them
Fall down to the ocean, fall down through the breeze
Drifting below, you are weightless and free
And where is the girl that once lived in you?
Bruised by her memory and bruised by the truth

Do you see how they ruined your mind?
Do you see how they wasted your life?
Can you feel anything, are there hands on your skin?
And where are you now, are you still trying to breathe?
 
Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing there’s been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
She put down in writing what was in her mind
I just don’t see why I should even care
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there.
 
If I married the lassie who had the land
It's that I'll rue until the day I die
When misfortune comes, sure no man can shun it
I was blindfolded, I cannot deny
 
Well, I gaze at passing strangers
In case I might see you
Yes, I gaze at passing strangers
In case I might see you
But the sun goes around the heavens
And another day just drives on through

Way out in the distance
I know you're with some other man
Way out in the distance
I know you're with some other man
But that's alright, baby
You know I always understand
 
hey hey! just one more and i'll walk away all
the everything you win turns to nothing today
and i forget when to move when my mouth is this
dry and my eyes are bursting hearts in a blood-
stained sky oh it was sweet it was wild and oh
how we...i trembled stuck in honey honey
cling to me so just one more just one more go
inspire in me the desire in me to never go home
oh just one more and i'll walk away all the
everything you win turns to nothing today so
just one more just one more go inspire in me
the desire in me to never go home
 
Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone.
Its saddest sound.
I'd rather be a forest than a street.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
 
You're vying with me for the 'saddest lyrics' title. It's not on.

Now, I wish my love was a red, red rose, growing on yon garden wall
And me to be the dew drop and upon her brow I'd fall
Perhaps now she might think on me as a rather heavy dew
And no more she'd love that handsome lad that they call O'Donoghue
 
Senseless reasoning
You believe what you want to believe
Farewell my fairweather friend
On you no one can depend
Bad times
Now they must end

Whatever you want it to be
For you that's what it will be
Honesty to you is arbitrary

Logic is lost in your
Cranial abattoir

Shallow
Empty inside
Sly witted
Full of snide

Bad times
Now they must end

The shutter-speed of your thinking process
Is small
Too small
Too full of pride

Bad times
Now they must end

Farewell my fairweather friend
Bad times
Now they must end
Farewell my fairweather friend
Farewell my fairweather friend

Bad times
Now they must end

You used to be nice
Now you're twice as nice
You used to be good
Now you're too good

Farewell my fairweather friend
Bad times
They must end
On you no one can depend
Farewell my fairweather friend

Logic is lost in your cranial abattoir
Shallow
Empty inside
Sly-witted
Full of snide
The shutter-speed of your thinking process
Is small
Too small
Too full of pride
Lost in a storm

Farewell my fairweather friend
Bad times
Now they must end
Bad times
They must end
On you no one can depend

Farewell my fairweather friend
Farewell my fairweather friend
Farewell my fairweather friend
Farewell my fairweather friend
 
"Don't stay out late, love, on the moorlands, my Mary
Don't stay out late, love, on the moorlands from me"
How little was our notion when we parted on the ocean
That we were forever parted from the Banks of the Lee
 
^^ wandering through the dark side this early.

I'm treating my son to a selection of PIL this morning, he's not quite ready for TG as yet but :-

She's dying,
She is burned from the waist up,
On her arm,
Her ear is burned,
Her eyelashes are burned,
She can't hold things up,
And even with medical advances,
There's no end in sight,
For hamburger lady,
She wants me to tell you of her claim mind,
From which the double play laying,
The proping chair,
Leave her,
She's Burned from the waist down,
Has to eat her life through tubes,

Hamburger Lady
Hamburger Lady
 
Class. ;)

When two lovers meet down beside the green bower
When two lovers meet down beneath the green tree
When Mary, fond Mary, declared to her lover
"You have stolen my poor heart from the Banks of the Lee"
 
I'm posting a lot of spiritual stuff because that's where I am at the moment...periodically battling an accusatory enemy. I actually can't beat it with my own resources..but I know a man that can. Thankyou Lord for being my Contender ,Love, Knight and so much more. And enemy 'The Lord rebuke you!'.

One of my absolute fave songs.

Be Thou My Vision
Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart,
be all else but naught to me, save that thou art;
be thou my best thought in the day and the night,
both waking and sleeping, thy presence my light.

Be thou my wisdom, be thou my true word,
be thou ever with me, and I with thee Lord;
be thou my great Father, and I thy true son;
be thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one.

Be thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
be thou my whole armor, be thou my true might;
be thou my soul's shelter, be thou my strong tower:
O raise thou me heavenward, great Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise:
be thou mine inheritance now and always;
be thou and thou only the first in my heart;
O Sovereign of heaven, my treasure thou art.

High King of heaven, thou heaven's bright sun,
O grant me its joys after victory is won;
great Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
still be thou my vision, O Ruler of all.

My young love said to me, "My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind." And she stepped away from me and this she did say It will not be long, love, till our wedding day." As she stepped away from me and she moved through the fair And fondly I watched her move here and move there And then she turned homeward with one star awake Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake. The people were saying, no two e'er were wed But one had a sorrow that never was said And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear And that was the last that I saw of my dear. Last night she came to me, my dead love came in So softly she came that her feet made no din As she laid her hand on me and this she did say: It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day.
 
Quoting the source gives away the mystery.... plus I like to go look for it when I see something I like! I'll start sourcing if you'd prefer :)
