What are your favorite lyrics? Right now I'm obessesed with the song "Tripple murtre et suicide ratté" by Les Vulgaires Machins.

J'étais trop loser trop moron
J'avais trop la chienne
pour juste me buter moé
faque j'ai buté ma femme pis mes enfants avec

J'étais trop loser
fallais pas que j'sois le seul Ã* perdre
ceux que j'aime y sont passé
si j'avais été le seul mort
qu'est-ce que y'auraient pensé de moé

J'haïssais ma job mon vieux char mon boss pis mes dettes
seul solution la mort
y paraît que c'd'meme kque ca s'passe au Québec

Chu allé cherché le gun que j'avais déjÃ* panné
je nous ai mis chacun une balle
ca été la fusillade
ca revollé dans TV

Bienvenu sa planète
ca va pas trop ben
mais c'est correct
on s'en balance pas mal
les vraies affaires dites moi les pas ca fait trop mal

On fetera l'action de grâce
en disant que la vie est belle
on rira dans notre barbe
en remplissant le trou jusqu'au dernier coup de pelle

J'ai foutu le feu dans ma femme dans stéphane pis andrée
pourquoi j'me suis manqué?
bonne kquestion vous demanderez au psy de l'expliquer

Après c'est le blackout
j'me souviens pu ce qui est arrivé
j'pense qu'ils m'ont menotté
j'ai passé aux nouvelles pis l'monde m'a oublié

Le psy vous dira que d'après toutes les statistiques
y'a pas vraiment de drame
la courbe du mal de vivre commence Ã* régresser

On ma réhabilité tranquilement quand j'tais en dedans
y mon fait un tattoo
avec une fleur de lys pis l'nom d'ma femme en dessous

Bienvenu sa planète
ca va pas trop ben
mais c'est corect on s'en caliss pas mal
les vraies affaires dites moi les pas ca fait trop mal

On fetera l'action de grâce en disant
que la vie est belle
on rira dans notre barbe
en remplissant le trou jusqu'au dernier coup de pelle

translation:
I'm such a loser, a moron
really in the dog house
I just want to be alone
Fuck my girl and my kids with..

I'm such a loser
Nothing to do 'till I die
What can I do?
I just want to be dead
and it's all I think about

I hate my job with my boss and my collegues
The only soloution is death
But what else to do when you live in Québec

You search for the gun without thinking
We'll have a party
It'll be a fallisaide
and we'll turn to mush watching tv

Welcome to the planet
It's not very good
but it's okay
It ballances the bad
the good times, I say, come with the bad

It does things with grace
and says that life is beautiful
back into the barbed wire
it replaces all the other shit with the pelle

All the firey memmories of my girl with Stéphan and André
Why do I miss me?
Good question, it demands an answer

After the blackout
I remember who came
I think I made a note
I passed the new things in the world and forgot them

And you still talka bout before all the statistics
It's not really a drama
You life miserably because you wollow in your pitty

I go for a tranquil rehabilitation
and get a tattoo
with la fleur de lys and the names of my girl and the dead

Welcome to the planet
It's not very good
but it's okay
It ballances the bad
the good times, I say, come with the bad

It does things with grace
and says that life is beautiful
back into the barbed wire
it replaces all the other shit with the pelle



Not exact translation, but I got it as close as I could, so obv iously it wont rhyme.

Ok so i have two of my favorite lyrical songs for ya:

Brand New Colony:

I'll be the grapes fermented,Bottled and served with the table
set in my finest suit Like a perfect gentlemen
I'll be the fire escape that's bolted to the ancient brick
Where you will sit and contemplate your day
I'll be the waterwings that save you if you start drowning
In an open tab when your judgement's on the brink
I'll be the phonograph that plays your favorite
Albums back as your lying there drifting off to sleep...
I'll be the platform shoes and undo what heredity's done to you...
You won't have to strain to look into my eyes
I'll be your winter coat buttoned and zippedstraight to the throat
With the collar up so you won't catch a cold
I want to take you far from the cynics int his town
And kiss you on the mouth
We'll cut out bodies free from the tethers of this scene,
Start a brand new colony
Where everything will change,
We'll give ourselves new names (identities erased)
The sun will hear the grounds
Under our bare feet in this brand new colony
Everything will change, oOo oOo...


Clark Gable:

I was waiting for a cross-town train in the london underground
When it struck me that i've been waiting since birth to find
A love that would look and sound like a movie so i changed
My plans and rented a camera and a van and then i called you
"i need you to pretend that we are in love again" and you agreed to

I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"
And i want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd

I greased the lens and framed the shot using a friend as my stand-in
The script it called for rain but it was clear that day so we faked it
The marker snapped and i yelled "quiet on the set"
And then called "action!"
And i kissed you in a stye that clark gable would have admired(i thought it classic)

I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real"
And i want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd
I know you're wise beyond your years, but do you ever get the fear
That your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by?

Very Great songs, very great lyrics

my fav right now is a christian worship song. i think the lyrics are really powerful and have a great message.


the stand

you stood before creation
eternity in your hands
you spoke the earth into motion
my soul now to stand

you stood before my failure
carried the cross for my shame
my sin weighed upon your shoulders
my soul now to stand

so i walk upon salvation
your spirit alive in me
this life to declare your promise
my soul now to stand

so what can i say
what can i do
but offer this heart o God
completely to you

so i'll stand
with arms high and heart abandoned
in awe of the one who gave it all

so i'll stand
my soul lord to you surrended
all i am is yours

Catch Me Jumpin';
I saw your picture at the booth
And there's a uniform man
Here waiting for you
And you smashed your camera on the wall
For the fear in alcohol
And I was willing to take the fall

But you won't see me floating
You know I'll be sinking in
And you won't catch me running
Try and catch me jumping

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

A man with a badge he wears like a crown
The long arm came down
And you were nowhere to be found
So they checked our bags for a stowaway
And by land and by sea
You couldn't get away
So you took to the air and you
Jumped into the front page

Singin' you won't see me floating
You know I'll be sinking in
And you won't catch me running
Try and catch me jumping

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

This is a Papa Roach song.

My Heart is a Fist

I surrender, I know I've been a pretender
You can have this guilt, this misery I wear so well
I wave my flag I sound the alarm
Somebody stop me before I do any harm
I surrender, I know I've been a pretender
I'm living a dead life, I'm staring into the headlights
Of a getaway car that'll take me out of my mind tonight
Crash and burn s.o.s. somebody help me get out of this mess of a dead life
I'm burning under the spotlight

My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will fight again
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will rise again

Take a look at these hollow eyes-one last look before I say goodbye
To this candle-lit nightmare I know I can never escape
So watch me fall from grace, watch me carve my hate
in the heart of a lover I feel I can never escape, my fate

My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will fight again
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will rise again

I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees to pray
but you don't notice me

I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees to pray
but you don't notice me
you don't notice me

I'm screaming while I pray
while I pray
while I pray
but you don't notice me

I am sick of you...
God, I am done with you...

I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees today, but you don't notice me

My heart is a fist drenched in blood
my soul will fight again
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will rise again....

Behind Closed Doors (by Rise Against)

Chairs thrown and tables toppled,
Hands armed with broken bottles,
Standing no chance to win but,
We're not running, we're not running.

There's a point I think we're missing,
It's in the air we raise our fists in,
In the smiles we cast each other,
My sister, my brother.

About the time we gave up hoping,
We never find these locks still open,
Stumbling on stones unturned,
The hurt we feel, we all have earned.

The lines we've cross in search of change,
but all they see is treason

[Chorus:]
Although we have no obligation to stay alive,
On broken backs we beg for mercy, we will survive,
(Break out) I won't be left here,
Behind closed doors.

Bonfires burn like beacons,
Guiding the lost and weakened.
Flames dance on crashing waves,
Guiding ships who've gone astray

Time out, let's stop and think this through,
We've all got better things to do,
Than talk in circles, run in place,
Answers inches from my face.

[Chorus]

Black eyes, broken fingers,
Blood drips and I let it run,
down my lips into my swollen gums,
When hope is non-existent,
Our instincts all scream "Run",
We never turn our backs or even bite our tongue.

[Chorus x2]
