Profound??? rock lyrics

Where am I to go now that I've gone too far

Golden Earring

shockedsoshocked

And it was cold, and it rained,
so I felt like an actor,
and i thought of ma,
and I wanted to get back there,
your face, your race, the way that you talk,
I kiss you, you're beautiful,
I want you to walk,
we got five years...

David Bowie - Five Years. (Actually got goosebumps just typing the lyrics)

She does'nt have to go to work
but she does'nt want to stay in bed
cos it's change from something comfortable
to something else instead.

Just between us,
I think it's time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show.
Just between us,
I think it's time for us to realize
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow.

Entre Nous by Rush, lyrics Neal Peart

dennisn

Men lies about it.
Some of them cries about it.
Some of them dies about it.
Everything's a-fightin about the spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.

Written by Willie Dixon
Performed by Howlin' Wolf, Cream, ......

We are the footprints across the sands
We are the thumb on a stranger's hand
We made a promise in the night
Swearing to heaven Is this a promise we keep
Or one we Break Like The Wind

Alba - Runrig

Air sgiath a' seoladh nan neoil
'S an domhain liath
Mar dhealbh a' tighinn beo tro na sgothan
'S mi a' tilleadh gu tir

Alba nam beanntan ard
Nan acraichean lom
Thairis air na lochan mointich
Nan coilltean 's nan gleann

Ach 'se sealladh leointe is gann
Tha an seo aig ceann thall an linn
Talamh alainn nan daoine
Fhathast an lamhan duine no dithis

Cuibhlean stolda mu dheas
Na fasaichean a tuath
An taigh-mor falamh an Dun-Eideann
Gun chumhachd gun ghuth

*Sibhse chuir achadh ri achadh
Taigh ri taigh
Gus nach bi ait anns an tir
An gabh sibh comhnaidh air leth
Ach 's math dhomh bhith seo an drasd
A cur failt air a' bhlas
'San tir a tha cho ur dhomh an diugh
Is a bha i nuair bha mi 'nam phaisd

Marillion - Script for a Jesters Tear

The fool escaped from paradise will look over his shoulder and cry
Sit and chew on daffodils and struggle to answer why?
As you grow up and leave the playground where you kissed your prince
and found your frog, Remember the Jester that showed
you tears, the script for tears.
So I'll hold my peace forever when you wear your bridal gown
In the silence of my shame the mute that sang the siren's
song has gone solo in the game I've gone solo in the game
But the game is over

Long ago I heard a tale I never will forget
The time was in the telling on the bank the scene was set
The sky was rolling blindly on, the daylight had not gone
She washed her hair among the stones and saw what was to come
All this will pass
There will be blood among the corn and heroes in the hills
But there is more to come my boy before you've had your fill
Men will come and rape the soil as though it were their own
And they will bathe their feet in oil as I have bathed my own

All this will pass
All things must come
Just as I tell you here

And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
Somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind screams Mary.
Oh oh yeah
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
With this crutch, its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last."
And the wind cries Mary.
Jimi Hendrix - And the Wind Cries Mary

We've taken care of everything
The words you hear, the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes.
It's one for all and all for one
We work together, common sons
Never need to wonder how or why.
We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls.
Look around at this world we've made
Equality our stock in trade
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man
Oh, what a nice, contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand.
We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls.
Rush: 2112, Temples of Syrinx

This could get to be quite a big thread........

The teenager awoke at mid day. He walked into the back garden. Everything was peaceful except for the complaining note of the woodcrest dying in the leafy thickness. He walked up to the patio chair where his father sat.
“Father?”
“Yes son?”
“I want to borrow your golf clubs.”

I wish I could share
All the love that's in my heart
Remove all the bars that keep us apart
And I wish you could know how it is to be me
Then you'd see and agree that every man should be free

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free, as sung by Nina Simone.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
Through the graves the wind is blowing,
Freedom soon will come;
Then we'll come from the shadows.

There's a club, if you'd like to go
You could meet someone who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die

I'm pretty much tone -deaf and the lyrics mean much more than the tune to me. I have far too many favourites to mention, but here are a few random ones:-

I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone.

Billy Joel

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,

John Lennon

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.

Kris Kristofferson

They had one thing in common, they were good in bed
She'd say, 'Faster, faster. The lights are turnin' red.

Eagles

You took me from my bubble
Knowing my defense was weak
And you sat there and you listened
Any time I chose to speak
You gathered from my pleas to
You that I am but a clown
And I fear only a hero can defeat
These demons now

Paolo Nutini

L'enfer du Nord Paris-Roubaix
La Cote d'Azur et Saint Tropez
Les Alpes et les Pyrennees
Derniere etape Champs-Elysees
Galibier et Tourmalet
En danseuse jusqu'au sommet
Pedaler en grand braquet
Sprint final a l'arrivee
Crevaison sur les paves
Le velo vite repare
Le peloton est regroupe
Camarades et amitie


Or if you insist en anglais

The hell of north Paris-Roubaix,
The Cote d'Azur and Saint Tropez
The Alps and the Pyrennees
Last stage Champs-Elysees
Galibier and Tourmalet
Dancing to the top
Bicycling at high gear
Final sprint at the finish
Flat tire on the paving stones
The bike is repaired quickly
The peloton is regrouped
Comrades and friendship

I volunteered for the Army on my birthday
They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway
I done two tours of duty in Vietnam
And I came home with a brand new plan
I take the seed from Colombia and Mexico
I plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road
Well the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air
I wake up screaming like I'm back over there
I learned a thing or two from ol' Charlie don't you know
You better stay away from Copperhead Road
Copperhead Road (Steve Earle)

Now my granddaddy sang this song
Told me about London when the Blitz was on
How he married Grandma and brought her back home
A hero throughout this land
Now I'm standing on a runway in San Diego
A couple Purple Hearts so I move a little slow
Ain't nobody here, maybe nobody knows
About a place called Vietnam
Johnny Come Lately (Steve Earle)

Both from the Album Copperhead Road - awesome!

Punctured pigs insides
On a shelf in Sainsburys
Will nature make it smell of mould yet?
When in this charming fridge
This charming ham

Why pamper farm's complexities
When the bacon runs low
And we need some meat

I would not shoot a pig
Even for something to wear
I just think, it's gruesome
That that ham is covered in hair.

A jumped up veggie boy
Well the look of disgrace
He said 'Return the pigs'
He knows so much about those pigs
He knows so much about those pigs

I would not shoot a pig
Even for something to wear
I just think, it's gruesome
That that ham is covered in hair.

A jumped up veggie boy
Well the look of disgrace
He said 'Return the pigs'
He knows so much about those pigs
He knows so much about those pigs

Some classics from Billy Bragg:

His lack of humility defies imagination
And he hangs round like a fart in a Russian space station

---

How can you lie there and think of England,
When you don't even know who's in the team

---

But all love is strange,
and you have learn to take the crunchy with the smooth I suppose
---

No amount of poetry can mend this broken heart
but you can put the Hoover 'round if you want to make a start
---

the time that it takes to make a cup of tea
is the time that it takes to make a baby

I'm your worn in leather jacket
I'm the volume in your fucked up teenage band
A bag of smokes and a six pack
I'm the dreams you had walking down the railroad tracks
You and me

I loved you then like I love you still,
I put you on a pedestal, you put me on the pill.
