Thruthful lyrics - your favorite?

Harmagedōn
By Harmagedōn

Some songs are not just appealing because of the melody or voice of the entertainer, some songs hold great truths and valuable messages.

We all know the famous lyrics from John Lennon, Michael Jackson and such superstars, hence I would be looking for the less known, or forgotten, Lyrics.

Mine,

Guns 'n Roses - Civil War

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars


I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

"What's so civil about war anyway?"

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway;

I heard the mission bell

And I was thinking to myself,

this could be heaven or this could be hell

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor,

I thought I heard them say...

Welcome to the hotel california

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely face

Plenty of room at the hotel california

Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain,

please bring me my wine

He said, we havent had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine

And still those voices are calling from far away,

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say...

Welcome to the hotel california

Such a lovely place

Such a lovely face

They livin it up at the hotel california

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling,

The pink champagne on ice

And she said we are all just prisoners here, of our own device

And in the masters chambers,

They gathered for the feast

The stab it with their steely knives,

But they just cant kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was

Running for the door

I had to find the passage back

To the place I was before

relax, said the night man,

We are programmed to receive.

You can checkout any time you like,

But you can never leave!

A translation of one of my favourite songs:

I'm the Palestinian People

Flames of aggression shed my blood

I'm denied my homeland yet

In my homeland are my blood vessels

I'm the wound that bleeds

I'm the tears that fall

I'm the melody that plays

Songs of victory and power of faith

I'm the Palestinian People

Calling the nation of Islam

Oh, Mother! Hold me tight

Suffering severe passions

Hoping you'd one day respond

I'm the wound whose blood

Runs in my Palestine

Echo of moaning I send

That comes back calling me

In spite of the injuries I'm still

Irrigated through roots of dignity

The winds of victory inspire in me

My lyrics and my melodies

I see a dawn emerging

I see a sun soothing me

And last but not least The Atom:

the glory of the atom

begs a reverent word

the primary design

of the whole universe

yes, let us sing its praises

let us bow our heads in prayer

at the magnificent consciousness

incarnate there

the smallest unit of matter

with its orbiting electrons

echoing off the solar system

like a hawk in the hills at dawn

the smallest unit of matter

uniting bird and rock and tree

and you and me

oh holy is the atom

the truly intelligent design

to which all of evolution

is graciously aligned

the one single structure

to which everythign distills

the air

the wood smoke there

and the hills

leave me here surrounded

by everything that's real

far outside the boundaries

of the digitized ordeal

leave me here awake

leave me here to heal

human beings are a cross

between monkeys and ants

you can see us from your spaceship

melting the polar ice caps

with our arrogance

summon a congress of angels

dressed in riot gear

we got ourselves a serious situation

down here

i have this great uncle

who worked on the atomic bomb

he got a nobel prize in physics

and a place in this song

and i bet there were no windows

and no women in the room

when they applied themselves

to the pure science of

boom

yes, messing with the atom

is the highest form of blasphemy

whether you are making weapons

or simple electricity

someone fashion me a pulpit

i have been called to engage

with the maniacal heretics

of the nuclear age!

let the religious get religion

let consumers get a clue

let scientists get perspective

let activists get their due

let industry get a conscience

let the earth inherit the meek

let the divinity of nature speak

the glory of the atom

begs a reverent word

the primary design

of the whole universe

yes, let us sing its praises

let us bow our heads in prayer

to the magnificent consciousness

incarnate there

Literal:

when they said he could walk on water

what it sounds like to me

is he could float like a butterfly

and sting like a bee

literal people are scary, man

literal people scare me

out there trying to rid the world

of its poetry

while getting it wrong fundamentally

down at the church of "look,

it sez right here, see!"

Crime for Crime:

the big day has come

the bell is sounding

i run my hands through my hair one last time

outside the prison walls

the town is gathering

people are trading crime for crime

everyone needs to see the prisoner

they need to make it even easier

they see me as a symbol, and not a human being

that way they can kill me

say it's not murder, it's a metaphor

we are killing off our own failure

and starting clean

standing in the gallows

everyone turned my way

i hear a voice ask me

if i've got any last words to say

and i'm looking out over the field of familiar eyes

somewhere in a woman's arms a baby cries

i think guilt and innocence

they are a matter of degree

what might be justice to you

might not be justice to me

i went too far, i'm sorry

i guess now i'm going home

so let any amongst you cast the first stone

now we've got all these complicated machines

so no one person ever has to have blood on their hands

we've got complex organizations

and if everyone just does their job

no one person has to understand

you might be the wrong color

you might be too poor

justice isn't something just anyone can afford

you might not pull the trigger

you might be out in the car

and you might get a lethal injection

'cause we take a metaphor that far

the big day has come

the bell is sounding

i run my hands through my hair one last time

outside the prison walls

the town has gathered

people are trading crime for crime

people are trading crime for crime

people are still trading crime for crime

Not a Pretty Girl:

i am not a pretty girl

that is not what i do

i ain't no damsel in distress

and i don't need to be rescued

so put me down punk

maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair

isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

i am not an angry girl

but it seems like i've got everyone fooled

every time i say something they find hard to hear

they chalk it up to my anger

and never to their own fear

and imagine you're a girl

just trying to finally come clean

knowing full well they'd prefer you

were dirty and smiling

and i am sorry

i am not a maiden fair

and i am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

and generally my generation

wouldn't be caught dead working for the man

and generally i agree with them

trouble is you gotta have yourself an alternate plan

and i have earned my disillusionment

i have been working all of my life

and i am a patriot

i have been fighting the good fight

and what if there are no damsels in distress

what if i knew that and i called your bluff?

don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down

whether or not you ever show up

i am not a pretty girl

i don't want to be a pretty girl

no i want to be more than a pretty girl

My favourite are all by Ani Difranco: :)

Pick Yer Nose

how come i can pick my ears

but not my nose

who made up that rule anyway

how can you say that's the way it is

that's just the way it goes

why don't you decide for yourself

what you can do

and what you can say

how come i can pick my friends

but not my enemies

what is it about me that offends

what is it about me

'cause you know i'm only five foot two

and i'm giggly wiggly

tell me again, what did i do

why are you scared of me

i fight with love

and i laugh with rage

you've gotta live light enough

to see the humor

and long enough to see some change

i think shy is boring

i think depressed is too

i think pretty is nice

but i'd rather see something new

all these plastic people

got their plastic surgery

but we got a big big beautiful

we got it for free

who you gonna be

if you can't be yourself

you can't get it from t.v.

you can't force it on

anybody else

you know they come to clear cut

they come to strip mine

they come for some of my big butt

my big brain

or just a little time

they wanna take me out to dinner

think i'm a bitch if i don't go

seems like the people who actually like me

won't allow me to say no

your idea of a conversation

is the third degree

but i don't really know you

and i don't really want to talk about me

'cause i'm not going to pretend

that i don't pick my nose

that's just the way it is, my friends

that's just the way it goes

this is who i am

what i do

and what i say

if you like it, let it be

if you don't, please do the same

i fight with love

i laugh with rage

you gotta live light enough to see the humor

and long enough to see some change

There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbour

Tomorrow for old England she sails

Far away from your land of endless sunshine

To my land full of rainy skies and gales

And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow

Though my heart is full of tears at this farewell

For you are beautiful

And I have loved you dearly

More dearly than the spoken word can tell

(repeat)

I heard there's a wicked war a blazing

And the taste of war I know so very well

Even now I see the foreign flag a raising

Their guns on fire as we sail into hell

I have no fear of death; it brings no sorrow

But how bitter will be this last farewell

For you are beautiful

And I have loved you dearly

More dearly than the spoken word can tell

(repeat)

Though death and darkness gather all about me

And my ship be torn apart upon the seas

I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands

In the heaving waves that brought me once to thee

And should I return safe home again to England

I shall watch the English mist roll through the dell

For you are beautiful

And I have loved you dearly

More dearly than the spoken word can tell

"Last Kiss" PEARL JAM

Where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from

Me. shes gone to heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when i

Leave this world.

We were out on a date in my daddys car. we hadnt driven very far. there in

The road, straight ahead. a car was stalled, the engine was dead.

I couldnt stop, so I swerved to the right. Ill never forget the sound that

Night. the screamin tires, the bustin glass. the painful scream that I heard

Last.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from me. shes gone

To heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When I woke up the rain was pourin down. there were people standin all around.

Something warm flowing through my eyes. but somehow I found my baby that night.

I lifted her head, she looked at me and said. hold me darling, just a little

While. I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that i

Knew I had missed.

Well now shes gone. even though I hold her tight. I lost my love, my life,

That night.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from me. shes gone

To heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this

World.

"Don�t Look Back in Anger" OASIS

Slip inside the eye of your mind

Dont you know you might find

A better place to play

You said that youve never been (sounds like bean in order to rhyme w/seen)

But all the things that youve seen

They slowly fade away

So Ill start a revolution from my bed

cuz you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside, summertimes in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

You aint ever gonna burn my heart out

And so, sally can wait

She knows its too late as were walking on by

Her soul slides away

But dont look back in anger

I heard you say

Take me to the place where you go

Where nobody knows

If its not our day

Please dont put your life in the hands

Of a rock and roll band

[and? youll? ] throw it all away

Im gonna start a revolution from my bed

cuz you said the brains I had went to my head

Step outside, cuz summertimes in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace

Take that look from off your face

cuz you aint ever gonna burn my heart out

And so, sally can wait

She knows its too late as shes walking on by

My soul slides away

But dont look back in anger

I heard you say

So, sally can wait

She knows its too late as were walking on by

Her soul slides away

But dont look back in anger

I heard you say

So, sally can wait

She knows its too late as shes walking on by

My soul slides away

But dont look back in anger

Dont look back in anger

I heard you say

At least not today.

The perception that divides you from him

Is a lie

For some reason you never asked why

This is not a black and white world

You can't afford to believe in your side

This is not a black and white world

To be alive

I say that the colours must swirl

And I believe

That maybe today

We will all get to appreciate

The Beauty of Grey

If I told you she was your mother

We could analyze the situation and be gone

If I said you ought to give her

Some of your water

Your eyes would light up like the dawn

The perception that divides you from her

Is a lie

For some reason we never asked why

This is not a black and white world

You can't afford to believe in your side

That maybe today

We will all get to appreciate

The Beauty of Grey

She's faced the hardest times you could imagine

And many times her eyes fought back the tears

And when her youthful world was about to fall in

Each time her slender shoulders

Wore the weight of all her fears

And a sorrow no one hears

Still rings in midnight silence in her ears

Let her cry for she's a lady

Let her dream for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower, growing wild

And if by chance I should hold her

Let me hold her for a time

But if allowed just one possession

I would pick her from the garden to be mine

Be careful how you touch her for she'll awaken

And sleep's the only freedom that she knows

And when you look into her eyes you won't believe

The way she's always paying

For a debt she never owed

And a silent wind still blows

That only she can hear, and so she goes

Let her cry for she's a lady

Let her dream for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower, growing wild

Let her cry for she's a lady

Let her dream for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower, growing wild

She's a flower growing wild (fade)

Please, mother mercy

Take me from this place

And the long winded curses

I keep hearing in my head

Words never listen

And teachers never learn

Now Im warm from the candle

But I feel too cold to burn

He came from an island

And he died from the street

He hurt so bad like a soul breaking

But he never said nothing to me

So say hello to heaven

New like a baby

Lost like a prayer

The sky was your playground

But the cold ground was your bed

Poor stargazer

Shes got no tears in her eyes

Smooth like whisper

She knows that love heals all wounds with time

Now it seems like too much love

Is never enough, you better seek out

Another road cause this one has

Ended abrupt, say hello to heaven

I never wanted

To write these words down for you

With the pages of phrases

Of things well never do

So I blow out the candle, and

I put you to bed

Since you cant say to me

Now how the dogs broke your bone

Theres just one thing left to be said

Say hello to heaven

ADRIAN MY HERO!!!!

You know how little people know that song?

How about

I dont mind stealing bread

From the mouths of decadence

But I cant feed on the powerless

When my cups already overfilled

But its on the table

The fire is cooking

And theyre farming babies

While the slaves are working

The blood is on the table

And their mouths are choking

But Im growing hungry

Back when I had a little

I thought that I needed a lot

A little was over rated,

but a lot was a little too complicated

You see-Zero didn't satisfy me

A million didn't make me happy

That's when I learned a lesson

That it's all about your perception

Hey-are you a papa or a superstar

So you act, so you feel, so you are

It ain't about the size of your car

It's about the size of the faith in your heart

There's hope

It doesn't cost a thing to smile

You don't have to pay to laugh

You better thank God for that

Off in the back country of Brazil

A met a young brotha that made me feel

That I could accomplish anything.

You see just like me he wanted to sing

He had no windows and no doors

He lived a simple life and was extremely poor

On top of all of that he had no eye sight,

but that didn't keep him from seein' the light

He said, what's it like in the USA,

and all I did was complain

He said-livin' here is paridise

He taught me paridise is in your mind

You know that

Stand up for your rights [echo]

Keep shining your light [echo]

And show the world your smile [echo]

I found the love that I knew I would miss

But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight

I lost my love, my life that night.

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?

She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good

So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When the night has come

And the land is dark

And the moon is the only light we see

No I wont be afraid

No I wont be afraid

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me

Oh, now, now, stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon

Should tumble and fall

And the mountain should crumble to the sea

I wont cry, I wont cry

No I wont shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me

Oh, stand by me

Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Whenever youre in trouble wont you stand by me

Oh, now, now, stand by me

Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darling, darling stand by me

Stand by me

Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

"Youth Of The Nation"

Last day of the rest of my life i wish i would have known cuz i'd a kissed my

momma goobye i didnt tell her that i loved her or how much i care or thank my

pops for all the talks and all the wisdom he shared Unaware i just did what i

always do. everyday the same routine before i skate off to school but who knew

that

this day wasnt like the rest instead of takin a test i took two to the chest

Call me blind but i didnt see it comin and everybody was runnin but i couldnt

hear nothin except gun blast it happened so fast I didnt really no this kid

though i sat by him in class Maybe this kid was reachin out for luv or maybe

for a moment he forgot who he was or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged

Whatever it was i know its because

We are We are the youth of the nation

Little Suzzy she was only twelve she was given the world with every chance to

excel

Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell She might act kinda proud

but no respect for herself

She finds luv in all the wrong places the same situations but different faces

Changed up her pace since her daddy left her too bad he never told her she

deserved much better

Johnny boy always played the fool he broke all the rules so you would think he

was cool

He was never really one of the guys no matter how hard he tried, with the

thought of suicide

It's kinda hard when you ain't got no friends he put his life to an end they

might remember him then

You cross a line and there is no turnin back he told the world how he felt with

the sound of a gat.

Whos to blame for the life that tragedies claim no matter what you say it wont

take away the pain that i feel inside im tired of all the lies dont nobody know

why its the blind leadin the blind

Guess thats the way that the story goes will it ever make sense somebody's

gotta

know theres gotta be more to life than this theres got to be more to everything

i thought exists

It means no worries for the rest of your days

It's our problem-free philosophy

Hakuna Matata!

Yeah. It's our motto!

What's a motto?

Nothing. What's a-motto with you?

Those two words will solve all your problems

That's right. Take Pumbaa here

Why, when he was a young warthog...

When I was a young wart hog

Very nice

Thanks

He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal

He could clear the savannah after every meal

I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned

And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind

And oh, the shame He was ashamed

Thought of changin' my name What's in a name?

And I got downhearted How did ya feel?

Everytime that I...

Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!

Oh. Sorry

One

Is it getting better?

Or do you feel the same?

Will it make it easier on you now?

You got someone to blame

You say

One love

One life

When it's one need

In the night

One love

We get to share it

Leaves you baby if you

Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?

Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?

You act like you never had love

And you want me to go without

Well it's

Too late

Tonight

To drag the past out into the light

We're one, but we're not the same

We get to

Carry each other

Carry each other

One

Have you come here for forgiveness?

Have you come to raise the dead?

Have you come here to play Jesus?

To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much?

More than a lot.

You gave me nothing,

Now it's all I got

We're one

But we're not the same

Well we

Hurt each other

Then we do it again

You say

Love is a temple

Love a higher law

Love is a temple

Love the higher law

You ask me to enter

But then you make me crawl

And I can't be holding on

To what you got

When all you got is hurt

One love

One blood

One life

You got to do what you should

One life

With each other

Sisters

Brothers

One life

But we're not the same

We get to

Carry each other

Carry each other

One

On

Lee Ann Womack - I hope you dance

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,

You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,

May you never take one single breath for granted,

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,

Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,

Promise me that youll give faith a fighting chance,

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

Jon Bon Jovi!!!

Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?

Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white?

Mama, can you help me try to understand,

Is innocence the difference between a boy and a man.

My daddy lived the lie, it's just the price that he paid.

Sacrificed his life, just slavin' away.

Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto,

That gets me through the night.

I ain't gonna do what I don't want to,

I'm gonna live my life.

Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,

Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly.

When the world gets in my face,

I say, Have A Nice Day.

Have A Nice Day

Take a look around you; nothing's what it seems

We're living in the broken home of hopes and dreams,

Let me be the first to shake a helping hand.

Anybody brave enough to take a stand,

I've knocked on every door, on every dead end street,

Looking for forgiveness,

what's left to believe?

/It's also a nice way of saying FO.

//Ey! I meant whatever floats your boat, float off, okay.

No, no drama, no, no, no, no drama

Back When I Could Fly:

I used to be invisible, a shape changing magic kid.

I could move at the speed of thought and frequently I did,

But my greatest accomplishment was a slow and looping glide.

I saw the tops of everything, back when I could fly.

I'd take my daily nap on the highest leafy branch,

And follow shooting stars on a comet's fiery lance.

I was quite the prodigy, when I owned the sky.

I never thought I'd have to walk, back when I could fly.

Keep your eye on the ball, your feet on solid ground.

Always sit up straight and tall and never make a sound.

In just a few short years, I learned not to be a child,

And I forgot the things I had when I was wild.

Now, my child, you'll learn arithmetic, coloring and sports.

You'll have a flair for nouns and verbs, and be late with book reports.

But in spite of all the rules that bind your wings so tight,

I hope you won't forget about the days when you could fly.

I'd take my daily nap on the highest leafy branch,

And follow shooting stars on a comet's fiery lance.

I was quite the prodigy, when I owned the sky.

I never thought I'd have to walk,

I never had to try,

Back when I could fly.

Some of you young folks been saying to me "Hey Pops, what you mean "What a wonderful world"

How about all them wars all over the place

You call them wonderful

And how about hunger and pollution

That aint so wonderful either"

Well how about listening to old Pops for a minute

Seems to me, it aint the world that's so bad

but what we're doin' to it

And all I'm saying is

See what a wonderful world

It would be if only we'd give it a chance

Love baby, love

That's the secret, Yeah

If lots more of us loved each other

We'd solve lots more problems

And then this world would be better

That's wha' ol' Pops keeps saying

I see trees of green, red roses too

I see them bloom, for me and you

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue, and clouds of white

The bright blessed day, dark sacred night

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces, of people going by

I see friends shaking hands, sayin' "how do you do?"

They're really sayin' "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow

They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Yes I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Oh yeah

There's so many different worlds

So many different suns

And we have just one world

But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell

And the moon's riding high

Let me bid you farewell

Every man has to die

But it's written in the starlight

And every line in your palm

We're fools to make war

On our brothers in arms

Michael Jackson Pictures

Skin head, dead head

Everybody gone bad

Situation, aggravation

Everybody allegation

In the suite, on the news

Everybody dog food

Bang bang, shot dead

Everybody's gone mad

Beat me, hate me

You can never break me

Will me, thrill me

You can never kill me

Jew me, sue me

Everybody do me

Kick me, kike me

Don't you black or white me

Tell me what has become of my life

I have a wife and two children who love me

I am the victim of police brutality, now

I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate

You're rapin' me of my pride

Oh, for God's sake

I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...

Set me free

Tell me what has become of my rights

Am I invisible because you ignore me?

Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now

I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame

They're throwing me in a class with a bad name

I can't believe this is the land from which I came

You know I do really hate to say it

The government don't wanna see

But if Roosevelt was livin'

He wouldn't let this be, no, no

Some things in life they just don't wanna see

But if Martin Luther was livin'

He wouldn't let this be

Candy came from out on the Island

In the backroom she was everybody's darlin'

But she never lost her head

Even when she was giving head

She says, Hey babe

Take a walk on the wild side

I Said, Hey baby

Take a walk on the wild side

And the coloured girls go

doo do doo do doo do do doo..

Little Joe never once gave it away

Everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there

New York City's the place where they say,

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

I said, Hey Joe

Take a walk on the wild side

Cold blue swastika tattooed on my skin

The ice in my veins the staples in my chin

I've got it carved in my forehead "Slave To My Sin"

Too violent for the brotherhood to ever take me in

Gonna write down my law in blood upon the street

To the cadence of a goose-step heavy metal beat

Wanna purify my race gonna turn up the heat

Just wanna make 'em die and make the job complete

I like to run my body on heavy heavy fuel

I can punch through a wall I can kick like a mule

I got a pocketful of bullets and a blueprint of the school

I'm the devil's little soldier I'm the devil's little tool

I got every kind of chemical pumpin' through my head

I read Mein Kampf daily just to keep my hatred fed

I never ever sleep I just lay in my bed

Dreamin' of the day when everyone is dead

I am a vicious young man oh I am a wicked young man

It's not the games that I play the movies I see the music I dig

I'm just a wicked young man

Keys that jingle in your pocket

Words that jangle in your head

Why did summer go so quickly?

Was it something that you said?

Lovers walk along a shore

And leave their footprints in the sand

Is the sound of distant drumming

Just the fingers of your hand?

Pictures hanging in a hallway

And the fragment of a song

Half-remembered names and faces

But to whom do they belong?

When you knew that it was over

You were suddenly aware

That the autumn leaves were turning

To the colour of her hair

Like a circle in a spiral

Like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending or beginning

On an ever-spinning reel

As the images unwind

Like the circles that you find

In the windmills of your mind

Hey now, all you've got to do is call.

Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.

You've got a friend.

You've got a friend.

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
