Lyrically Speaking (a word game)

Fixed that for you.

LOL ...

...Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence...

...I've been driving in my car, it's not quite a Jaguar
I bought it in Primrose Hill from a bloke from Brazil
It was made in fifty-nine in a factory by the Tyne
It says Morris on the door, the G.P.O. owned it before
I drive in it for my job, the governor calls me a slob
But I don't really care, give me some gas and the open air
It's a bit old but it's mine, I mend it in my spare time
Just last week I changed the oil, the rocker valves and the coil
Just last week I changed the oil
Last week it went round the clock, I also had a little knock
I dented somebody's fender, he learnt not to park on a bender...
 
Jump to the ground
As the Turbo slows to cross the borderline
Run like the wind
As excitement shivers up and down my spine
Down in his barn
My uncle preserved for me an old machine
For fifty odd years
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream

I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime
 
There I was completely wasted, out of work and down
All inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life

Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

So much for the golden future I can't even start
I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart
You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too
 
Well, I pity the fool
I said I pity the fool
You know I pity the fool
I said I pity the fool
She'll break your heart one day
Then she'll laugh if she walks away
Yeah, I pity the fool
 
^^Why do I picture Mr. T rapping that?

= = = = =

Your love has set my soul on fire, burnin' out of control
You taught me the ways of desire, now it's takin' its toll
You're the right kind of sinner, to release my inner fantasy
The invincible winner, and you know that you were born to be

You're a heartbreaker
Dream maker, a love taker
Don't you mess around with me
You're a heartbreaker
Dream maker, a love taker
Don't you mess around, no no no
 
Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due
And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
 
I'm the trouble starter, punkin' instigator
I'm the fear addicted, a danger illustrated

I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You're a firestarter, twisted firestarter

I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter

I'm the bitch you hated, filth infatuated, yeah
I'm the pain you tasted, fell intoxicated

I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You're the firestarter, twisted firestarter
 
"Yeah, my layers are thick
And I got a bad attitude
Yeah, that knife in my back
Has fingerprints that belong to you"
 
Drivin' home this evening
I coulda sworn we had it all worked out
You had this boy believin'
Way beyond the shadow of a doubt, yeah

Well I heard it on the street
I heard you mighta found somebody new, yeah
Well who is he baby, who is he
And tell me what he means to you, oh yeah

I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you'd be letting go

Now it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
Yeah, it cuts like a knife
Oh, but it feels so right
 
If you'd been a dog
They would have drowned you at birth
Look into my mouth
It's the only way you'll know I'm telling the truth

So knives out
Cut him up
Squash his head
Put him in the pot
 
I'm looking down the hole
You're looking up at me
You're cold and tired
That is easy to see
Lower the rope to you
A bucket on the line
Your membrane will be soft and smooth
And your heart will be mine
 
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well in a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me & I will never be set free
As long as I'm a ghost that you can see
If I could read your mind, love, what a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel, that kind the drugstores sell
When you reach the part, where the heartaches come
The hero would be me, the heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again because the ending's just too hard to take
Stories always end, and if you read between the lines
You know that I'm just trying to understand
The feelings that you lack I've never thought I could feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong but the feeling's gone
And I just can't get it back.
 
It's a dirty story of a dirty man,
And his clinging wife doesn't understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail
It's a steady job,
But he wants to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.
Paperback writer, paperback writer.

Sitting on a park bench
Eying little girls with bad intent
Snots running down his nose
Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes, hey, Aqualung
Drying in the cold sun
Watching as the frilly panties run, hey, Aqualung
Feeling like a dead duck
Spitting out pieces of his broken luck, oh, Aqualung

She was seaside sittin', just a smokin' and a drinkin' on ringside,
On top of the world, oh, yeah
She had her drink in her hand she had her toes in the sand and whoa,
What a beautiful girl, ah, yeah
What a sweet talkin' honey with a little bit of money can turn your head around
Creatures from the sea with the look to me like she'd like to fool around
What a snappy little mammy gonna keep her pappy happy
And accompany me to the ends of the earth, ah, yeah that't what I said

Here I am, ain't no man of the world, no
All I need is a beautiful girl

When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes, ah
Ohh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her?
 
'Cause you're safe like spring time
Short days, long nights, boy
Tell me all the ways to love you
'Cause you taste like Lucky Strikes
You drag, I light, boy
Tell me all the ways to love you
 
Every time you smile I wonder why
Every time you say you love me, lie
Every time we touch I break inside
'Cause no one else could dry these tears
You left me broken with nothing more to give
When I kiss you on your cheatin' lips
All I ever picture is you with him
'Cause no one else could dry these tears
You left me broken with nothing more to give
When I kiss you on your cheatin' lips
All I ever picture is you with him
 
I remember
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions had an echo, in so much space
And when your out there without care
Yeah I was out of touch
But it wasn’t because I didn’t know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly

And I hope that you’re having the time of your life
But think twice, that’s my only advice
Come on now, who do you
Who do you, who do you, who do you think you are
Ha ha ha, bless your soul
You really think you’re in control?

Well I think you’re crazy
I think you’re crazy
I think you’re crazy
Just like me
