Lyrically Speaking (a word game)

[mtu mwendawazimu]

Little skirt climbing way up her knees

Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
Into me, baby
And I come into you

In a boys dream
In a boys dream

If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
To forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl
Close to me
Oh and you come crash
Into me, baby
And I come into you

Hike up your skirt a little more
And show the world to me

 

[TheLoveBandit]

Sonofabitch! I read that and thought, I know the perfect song to respond with. I looked up DMB and went back and forth a dozen times before I realized wtf I was doing. I am dumb.

Touch your lips just so I know

I can see that it won't be long
You grow cold when you keep holding on
You know you've changed and your words they lie
That's something you can't deny
I know there's something going on
I know there's something going on
I know it won't be long
Won't be long before you're gone
There's something going on
There's something going on
I know a good thing must come to an end
But it's hard to take loosing a friend
I know what you think and what's in your mind
So darling don't pretend
I know there's something going on.

 

[TheLoveBandit]

take loosing a friend

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

If you've got troubles, I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and can see it through
'Cause you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me

Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too, maybe
But none of them will ever love you
The way I do, it's me and you, boy
And as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You're gonna see it's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me

 

[Stark]

And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed

No one in sight for fifty miles,
Sleeping fields sigh as I glide across their spines
If I could just reach the crest of that hill
This whole day will tumble and out the night will spill
The sky is still as a spinning top,
Shooting stars drop like burning words from above
If I could just connect all these dots,
The truth would tumble like a Cynic vexed by love
And yet the people keep saying
I'm miles from my home,
Miles from my home
I met you again in my sleep last night,
These are days of slow boats and false starts
Hearts remain under lock and key,
You will be the one to set them both free
And yet the people will tell you
Your miles from your home,
Miles from your home
But that's where I want to be
Out there searching,
Out here fumbling,
Out here waiting,
For you and you for me
The moon hangs like a question mark,
Pale as milk, bold as a promise
When will you share the sights with us?
When will we hold you in our arms?
And the people we'll tell them
We're miles from our home,
Miles from our home

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

Shooting stars drop like burning words from above

Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars
Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars
Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars
Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars
Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars
Ooh la la, I see stars, I'm seeing stars

Once again, I find myself with my friends
Dancing the night away, it's like the party never ends
Then again we don't want it to stop, coz tonight's the night it goes sweat box
Laser beams, flashing lights, wild cards, men from Mars, dressed in Stars and stripes
Eclectic, electric, ladies of the evening, drinking booze and mingling
Mashing to the music, I can do anything
Freaky Dicky star speckles and pink butterflies and life is nice, so nice
I walk into a club and I've found paradise, I'm seeing stars, I can't believe my eyes

Oh my starry eyed surprise, sundown to sunrise
I dance all night, we're gonna dance all night, dance all night to this DJ

 

[TheLoveBandit]

men from Mars

New gods a moving
Miracles a losing
A cash in baby
Just give it a taste
Stop, look, dig it
If she wanna get it
Stop, look, dig it
All she can destroy
Stop, look, dig it
If she wanna get it
Stop, look, dig it
All she can destroy

Mars needs women
Angry red women
Mars needs women
Fuck in outer space
Mars needs women
Angry red women
Mars needs women
Fuck in outer space

 

[TheLoveBandit]

Stop, look, dig it

We dig TV we dig remote control,
We dig the Furry Freak Brothers and the Twilight Zone,
We dig Marvel and D.C., we dig Run-DMC,
We dig Renegade Soundwave and AC/DC
(Can U dig it?)

Bruce Wayne auf weidersehn,
Dirty Harry, "Make my day, "
Terminator, hit the north,
Alan Moore knows the score,
Riffs? Yeah! Can U dig it?
Riffs? Yeah! Can U dig it?

We dig Optimus Prime and not Galvetron,
We dig "The Leader of the Pack" and the "Do-Run-Run",
Spinderella and Bruce Lee, "The Bad and the Ugly",
"V for Vendetta" and "Into the Groovy".
(Can U dig it?)

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

Renegade

Since the Prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
Right down through the Middle Ages
Planet earth kept going through changes
And then no renaissance came, and times continued to change
Nothing stayed the same, but there were always renegades
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Paine
Dr. Martin Luther King, Malcom X
They were renegades of their time and age
The mighty renegades

We're the renegades of funk
We're the renegades of funk

 

[TheLoveBandit]

kept going through changes

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes
Where's your shame?
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can't trace time

Strange fascinations fascinate me
Ah, changes are taking
The pace I'm goin' through

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

I watch the ripples change their size

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas?
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go (go!)
You'll never shine if you don't glow

 

[TheLoveBandit]

You'll never shine

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Shine on you crazy diamond
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom
Blown on the steel breeze

Come on you target for faraway laughter
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze

Come on you raver, you seer of visions
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

Shine on

Instant Karma's gonna get you
Gonna look you right in the face
Better get yourself together darlin'
Join the human race
How in the world you gonna see
Laughin' at fools like me
Who in the hell d'you think you are
A super star
Well, right you are

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on

 

[mal3volent]

A super star
Well, right you are

Ghetto superstar, that is what you are
Comin from afar, reachin for the stars
Run away with me, to another place
We can rely on each other, uh-huh
From one corner, to another, uh-huh

Uh, yeah, yo, yo
Some got, hopes and dreams, we got, ways and means
The surpreme dream team, always up with the schemes
From hubcaps to sellin raps, name your theme
My rise to the top, floatin on this cream

 

[TheLoveBandit]

Run away with me,

As I walk along
I wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as I still walk on
I think of the things we've done
Together, a-while our hearts were young

I'm a-walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
Wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery
And I wonder
I wah-wah-wah-wah-wonder
Why
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder
A-where she will stay-ay
My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

My little runaway
Run, run, run, run, runaway

Run, Running all the time
Running to the future
With you right by my side

Me, I'm the one you chose
Out of all the people
You wanted me the most

And I'm so sorry that I've fallen
Help me up, let's keep on running
Don't let me fall out of love

Running Running as fast as we can
Do you think we'll make it
(Do you think we'll make it)
Running, keep holding my hand
So we don't get separated

 

[TheLoveBandit]

Running as fast as we can

Children behave, that's what they say when we're together
And watch how you play
They don't understand
And so we're

Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands
Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground and then you say

I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

Look at the way we gotta hide what we're doin'
'Cause what would they say
If they ever knew
And so we're

Running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another hands
Trying to get away into the night and then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground and then you say

I think we're alone now,
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now,
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

 

[mal3volent]

Running just as fast as we can

I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she's being a little bitch
I think I'll get outta here, where I can

Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear you're just like a pill
'Stead of makin' me better
You keep makin' me ill
You keep makin' me ill

 

[TheLoveBandit]

To the middle of nowhere

Well we know where we're going
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowing
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

Yeah

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
I'm feeling okay this morning
And you know
We're on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go

We're on a ride to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there, take you there

We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
And it's…

 

[mtu mwendawazimu]

We're on a road to nowhere

Will I ever get to, to where it is that I am going
Will I ever follow through with what I... with what I have planned
I guess it's possible, that I have been a bit distracted
And the directions for me are a lot less in demand.
In demand.
Will I ever get to where I'm going
If I do will I know when I'm there
If the wind blew me in the right direction. Yeah
Would I even care
I would.
I take a look around, it's evident the scene has changed.
And there are times when I feel improved, improved upon the past.
And there are times when I can't seem to understand at all.
And yes it seems as though I'm going nowhere really fucking fast.
Nowhere fast.

 

[mal3volent]

Nowhere fast.

Do this: all I have to do is die
Think this: all I have to think is why
Be this: all I have to do is try
I'll be what I want

Julie she was running so she kept the car at 80
And it died just north of Gilman street in Albany

Nowhere fast, that's where I wanna be
Give me good times and someplace to sleep
The price of freedom doesn't actually come cheap

Julie was a fuckup
But I swear she wasn't stupid and she finally got her ass back to Los Angeles.
