pagemaster_b Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 This has been one of my favorite songs since high school. It came out not long after one of my own incidents.    Runaway Train by Soul Asylum   Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without a light You were there like a slow torch burning I was a key that could use a little turning  So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I couldn't keep Promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I couldn't keep  It seems no one can help me now I'm in too deep There's no way out This time I have really led myself astray  Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here no there  Can you help me remember how to smile Make it somehow all seem worthwhile How on earth did I get so jaded Life's mystery seems so faded  I can go where no one else can go I know what no one else knows Here I am just drownin' in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train  Everything is cut and dry Day and night, earth and sky Somehow I just don't believe it  Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here no there  Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a madman laughin' at the rain Little out of touch, little insane Just easier than dealing with the pain Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here no there  Runaway train never comin' back Runaway train tearin' up the track Runaway train burnin' in my veins Runaway but it always seems the same   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chavslayer Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Roulette by System Of A Down     I have a problem that I cannot explain I have no reasons why it should have been so plain, Have no questions but I sure have excuse I lack the reason why I should be so confused, I know, how I feel when I'm around you, I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you, Around you, Left a message but it ain't a bit of use, I have the pictures, the wild might be the deuce, Today you called, you saw me, you explained, Playing the show and running down the plane, I know, how I feel when I'm around you, I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you, I know, how I feel when I'm around you, I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you, Around you, I know, how I feel when I'm around you, I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you, I know, how I feel when I'm around you, I don't know, how I feel when I'm around you, Around you, Around you, Around you...

KrakenKing Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Muse - Map of the Problematique (Off their new CD, "Black Holes and Revelations", releasing 07/11/06... buy it or die!)  Fear and panic in the air I want to be free From desolation and despair And I feel Like everything I stole Is being swept away Well, I refuse to let you go I can't get it right... since I met you  This is the Map of the Problematique  Life will flash before my eyes So scattered and lost I want to touch the other side And the world Thinks they are to blame Why can't we see When we bleed, we bleed the same I can't get it right... since I met you  This is the Map of the Problematique...    Muse - Starlight (Also from their new CD)  Far away, this ship is taking me far away Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die The starlight, I will be chasing the starlight Until the end of my life I don't know if it's worth it anymore  Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold you in my arms  My life, you electrify my life Lets conspire to ignite All the souls that will die just to feel alive I'll never let you go If you promise not to fade away Never fade away  And our hopes and expectations, Black holes and revelations (x2)  Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold you in my arms  Far away, this ship is taking me far away Far away from these memories Of the people who care if I live or die I'll never let you go If you promise not to fade away Never fade away  And our hopes and expectations, Black holes and revelations (x2)  Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold...

chavslayer Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 One by Metallica is good too. Its about a WW1 soldier who was horribly injured,no arms,legs,speech,hearing or sight.   I can't remember anything Can't tell if this is true or dream Deep down inside i feel to scream This terrible silence stops me  Now that the war is through with me I'm waking up i can not see That there is not much left of me Nothing is real but pain now  Hold my breath as i wish for death Oh please god,wake me  Back in the womb its much too real In pumps life that i must feel But can't look forward to reveal Look to the time when i'll live  Fed through the tube that sticks in me Just like a wartime novelty Tied to machines that make me be Cut this life off from me  Hold my breath as i wish for death Oh please god,wake me Now the world is gone i'm just one Oh god,help me hold my breath as i wish for death Oh please god help me  Darkness imprisoning me All that i see Absolute horror I cannot live I cannot die Trapped in myself Body my holding cell  Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech Taken my hearing Taken my arms Taken my legs Taken my soul Left me with life in hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxo Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 My taste in music is constantly changing, so currently my two favorite song lyrics are Viva La Revolution - The Adicts and London Calling - The Clash...  Into the Dungeon with evil menThe people has risen we're free again Come out of the closet Come out of the hole Come out of the woodwork Come into the fold Rebels and fighters, a license to kill Unite with the bandits down from the hills Open your windows Open your doors Open your minds To a freedom of thought Raise our voices, raise our flag Smash the symbols of the life never had Long live the symbols Long live the scheme Long live our hopes Long live the dream Dance in the streets at the carnival Celebrate the victory now Drink the wine from the rich man's cask This revolution won't be the last  London calling to the faraway townsNow that war is declared-and battle come down London calling to the underworld Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls London calling, now don't look at us All that phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust London calling, see we ain't got no swing 'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing  The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin A nuclear error, but I have no fear London is drowning-and I live by the river  London calling to the imitation zone Forget it, brother, an' go it alone London calling upon the zombies of death Quit holding out-and draw another breath London calling-and I don't wanna shout But when we were talking-I saw you nodding out London calling, see we ain't got no highs Except for that one with the yellowy eyes  Now get this London calling, yeah, I was there, too An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true! London calling at the top of the dial After all this, won't you give me a smile?  I never felt so much a' like  I'll probably have a new favorite a week from now, don't worry, I won't post it.

RBOrrell Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Wish You Were Here (Waters, Gilmour)Â So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, Blue skys from pain. Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? Â And did they get you to trade Your heros for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? Â How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.

HAYASHI Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I'm into the soulful beats of hip hop.. this is about love. a little poetic i think. from lauryn hill  When It Hurts So Bad   When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad Why's it feel so good? When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad Why's it feel so good?  I loved real, real hard once But the love wasn't returned Found out the man I'd die for He wasn't even concerned I tried, and I tried, and I tried To keep him in my life I cried, and I cried, and I cried But I couldn't make it right But I, I loved the young man And if you've ever been in love, Then you'd understand  What you want might make you cry What you need might pass you by If you don't catch it, If you don't catch it, And what you need ironically Will turn out what you want to be If you just let it, If you just let it  See, I thought this feeling It was all that I had But how could this be love And make me feel so bad? Gave up my power, I existed for you But whoever knew the voodoo you'd do? But I, I loved the young man And if you've ever been in love you'd understand What you want might make you cry What you need might pass you by If you don't catch it And what you need ironically Will turn out what you want to be If you just let it, What you want might make you cry What you need might pass you by If you don't catch it And what you need ironically Will turn out what you want to be If you just let it, If you just let it  When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad Why's it feel so good? When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad  When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad Why's it feel so good? When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad When it hurts so bad, when it hurts so bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Okay, I'm kinda with Julie on this one....do we really need to see the entire song? I'll just spit out a bunch of lines that come to mind right away.  First, the single greatest line in the history of music:  "been around the world and foundthat only stupid people are breeding" "Flagpole Sitta" - Harvey Danger  "Emancipate yourselves from mental slaveryNone but ourselves can free our minds" "Redemption Song" - Bob Marley  "'Cause every hand's a winner, and every hand's a loserand the best you you can hope for is to die in your sleep" "The Gambler" - Kenny Rogers  "I've been puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn, and a kingI've been up and down, and over and out, and I know one thing Each time I find myself flat on my face I pick myself up and get back in the race...that's life" "That's Life" Written by: D. Kay, K. Gordon Sung by "The Chairman of the Board" (Google it kids  And I wanna be thereI wanna go back down and die beside the sea there With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine I'll be chewin' on a honeysuckle vine "Tin Cup Chalice" - Jimmy Buffett (these won't be real popular, but they mean a lot to me)  I was supposed to have been a Jesuit Priest or a Naval Academy gradThat was the way that my parents perceived me, those were the plans that they had But I couldn't fit the part, too dumb or too smart Ain't it funny how we all turned out I guess we are the people our parents warned us about "We Are The People Our Parents Warned Us About" - Jimmy Buffett  Reading departure signs in some big airport reminds me of the places I've beenvisions of good times that brought so much pleasure makes me want to go back again "Changes In Attitudes, Changes In Latitudes" - Jimmy Buffett  If our lives were that simple, we'd live in the pastif the phone doesn't ring, it's me "If The Phone Doesn't Ring, It's Me" - Jimmy Buffett  How I wish, how I wish you were here.We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here. "Wish You Were Here" (Waters, Gilmour) - Pink Floyd   And finally, one song in particualr that just couldn't be broken up. IMHO, it's the greatest rock song ever written. Each verse is brilliant on its own, but all together, the song is brilliant from beginning to end:  "Born to Run" - Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can hear the 7.62mmx39mm rounds(AK) and the .223 Rem, or 5.56mmx45mm NATO rounds from the M16s...  ALso, you can hear the claymores going off. A big clue are the Huey evac hellies.

Masked_Maverick Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Here are the Lyrics to one of Weird Al's best songs ever:   Dare to be Stupid   Put down your chainsaw and listen to me It's time for us to join in the fight It's time to let your babies grow up to be cowboys It's time to let the bedbugs bite  You better put all your eggs in one basket You better count your chickens before they hatch You better sell some wine before it's/its time You better find yourself an itch to scratch  You better squeeze all the Charmin you can while Mr. Wimpole's not around Stick your head in the microwave and get yourself a tan  Talk with your mouth full Bite the hand that feeds you Bite on more than you chew What can you do Dare to be stupid  Take some wooden nickles Look for Mr. Goodbar Get your mojo working now I'll show you how You can dare to be stupid  You can turn the other cheek You can just give up the ship You can eat a bunch of sushi and forget to leave a tip  Dare to be stupid Come on and dare to be stupid It's so easy to do Dare to be stupid We're all waiting for you Let's go  It's time to make a mountain out of a molehill So can I have a volunteer There's no more time for crying over spilled milk Now it's time for crying in your beer  Settle down, raise a family, join the PTA Buy some sensible shoes and a Chevyrolet And party 'till you're broke and they drive you away It's OK, you can dare to be stupid  It's like spitting on a fish It's like barking up a tree It's like I said you gotta buy one if you wanna get one free  Dare to be stupid (yes) Why don't you dare to be stupid It's so easy to do Dare to be stupid We're all waiting for you Dare to be stupid  Burn your candle at both ends Look a gift horse in the mouth Mashed potatoes can be your friends  You can be a coffee achiever You can sit around the house and watch Leave It To Beaver The future's up to you So what you gonna do  Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid What did I say Dare to be stupid Tell me, what did I say Dare to be stupid It's alright Dare to be stupid We can be stupid all night Dare to be stupid Come on, join the crowd Dare to be stupid Shout it out loud Dare to be stupid I can't hear you Dare to be stupid OK, I can hear you now Dare to be stupid Let's go, Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Dare to be stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chavslayer Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 My Sweet Shadow by In Flames is cool.  I'm selling heavenly sketches A world out of my mind Ready to explode in purity to fill the holes inside  An ever moving stream with glowing rays of light Emotions tied to pass lies and I know I should let go  Tamed with confidence of a brighter future  I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out!  Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more  Another dawn collapses Do I need to be reminded A glimpse of my safe home A path to hide all anger  I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out!  Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more  In circles I catch A torch carried by the immortal From depths that I created In vain echoes fade  Burn out!  Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more  Fueled, these new shores burn, dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more  Fueled, Dark past lies cold For you I look no more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timpowes Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Levan Polkka by Loituma.  Nuapurista kuulu se polokan tahtijalakani pohjii kutkutti. Ievan äiti se tyttöösä vahti vaan kyllähän Ieva sen jutkutti, sillä ei meitä silloin kiellot haittaa kun myö tanssimme laiasta laitaan. Salivili hipput tupput täppyt äppyt tipput hilijalleen.  Ievan suu oli vehnäsellä ko immeiset onnee toevotti. Peä oli märkänä jokaisella ja viulu se vinku ja voevotti. Ei tätä poikoo märkyys haittaa sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan. Salivili hipput.  Ievan äiti se kammarissa virsiä veisata huijjuutti, kun tämä poika naapurissa ämmän tyttöä nuijjuutti. Eikä tätä poikoo ämmät haittaa sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan. Salivili.  Siellä oli lystiä soiton jäläkeen sain minä kerran sytkyyttee. Kottiin ko mäntii ni ämmä se riitelj ja Ieva jo alako nyyhkyytteek. Minä sanon Ievalle mitäpä se haittaa laskemma vielähi laiasta laitaa. Salivili.  Muorille sanon jotta tukkee suusi en ruppee sun terveyttäs takkoomaa. Terveenä peäset ku korjoot luusi ja määt siitä murjuus makkoomaa. Ei tätä poikoo hellyys haittaa ko akkoja huhkii laiasta laitaan. Salivili.  Sen minä sanon jotta purra pittää ei mua niin voan nielasta. Suat männä ite vaikka lännestä ittään vaan minä en luovu Ievasta, sillä ei tätä poikoo kainous haittaa sillon ko tanssii laiasta laitaan. Salivili.   Not that I understand what they're saying, but it's fun to listen to it and try to read the lyrics at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiCoastal Kid Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Levan Polkka by Loituma.  <3 Loituma    Sufjan Stevens' "Casimir Pulaski Day"  Golden rod and the 4-H stone The things I brought you When I found out you had cancer of the bone  Your father cried on the telephone And he drove his car to the Navy yard Just to prove that he was sorry  In the morning through the window shade When the light pressed up against your shoulder blade I could see what you were reading  Oh the glory that the lord has made And the complications you could do without When I kissed you on the mouth  Tuesday night at the bible study We lift our hands and pray over your body But nothing ever happens  I remember at Michael's house In the living room when you kissed my neck And I almost touched your blouse  In the morning at the top of the stairs When your father found out what we did that night And you told me you were scared  Oh the glory when you ran outside With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied And you told me not to follow you  Sunday night when I cleaned the house I find the card where you wrote it out With the pictures of your mother  On the floor at the great divide With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied I am crying in the bathroom  In the morning when you finally go And the nurse runs in with her head hung low And the cardinal hits the window  In the morning in the winter shade On the first of March on the holiday I thought I saw you breathing  Oh the glory that the lord has made And the complications when I see his face In the morning in the window  Oh the glory when he took our place But he took my shoulders and he shook my face And he takes and he takes and he takes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chavslayer Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Wake Up by Rage Against The Machine has good lyrics.  Uggh!  Come on, although ya try to discredit Ya still never edit The needle, I'll thread it Radically poetic Standin' with the fury that they had in '66 And like E-Double I'm mad Still knee-deep in the system's s**t Hoover, he was a body remover I'll give ya a dose But it'll never come close To the rage built up inside of me Fist in the air, in the land of hypocrisy  Movements come and movements go Leaders speak, movements cease When their heads are flown 'Cause all these punks Got bullets in their heads Departments of police, the judges, the feds Networks at work, keepin' people calm You know they went after King When he spoke out on Vietnam He turned the power to the have-nots And then came the shot  Yeah! Yeah, back in this... Wit' poetry, my mind I flex Flip like Wilson, vocals never lackin' dat finesse Whadda I got to, whadda I got to do to wake ya up To shake ya up, to break the structure up 'Cause blood still flows in the gutter I'm like takin' photos Mad boy kicks open the shutter Set the groove Then stick and move like I was Cassius Rep the stutter step Then bomb a left upon the fascists Yea, the several federal men Who pulled schemes on the dream And put it to an end Ya better beware Of retribution with mind war 20/20 visions and murals with metaphors Networks at work, keepin' people calm Ya know they murdered X And tried to blame it on Islam He turned the power to the have-nots And then came the shot  Uggh! What was the price on his head? What was the price on his head!   I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard a shot I think I heard, I think I heard a shot  'He may be a real contender for this position should he abandon his supposed obediance to white liberal doctrine of non-violence...and embrace black nationalism' 'Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers...And neutralize them, neutralize them, neutralize them'  Wake up!

Yeh, I did...I was standing over there by the tomatoes And here he come Running thru the pole beans, thru the fruits and vegetables Naked as a jay-bird And I hollered over at Ethel...Isaid don't look Ethel It was too late, she'd already been incensed...  Chorus  Here he comes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy There he goes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy And he ain't wearin' no clothes Oh yes, they call him the streak Fastest thing on two feet He's just as proud as he can be Of his anatomy He's gonna give us a peek Oh yes, they call him the streak He likes to show off his physique If there's an audience to be found He'll be streakin' around Invitin' public critique...   This is your action news reporter once again And we're here at the gas station Pardon me sir, did you see what happened? Yeh, I did...I was just in here gettin' my tires checked And he just appeared out of the traffic Come streakin' around the grease rack there Didn't have nothing on but a smile I looked in there and Ethel was gettin' her a cold drink I hollered...Don't look Ethel It was too late...She'd already been mooned Flashed her right there in front of the shock absorbers   Chorus  He ain't rude, boogie-dy, boogie-dy He ain't lewd, boogie-dy, boogie-dy He's just in the mood to run in the nude  Oh yes, they call him the streak He likes to turn the other cheek He's always making the news Wearin' just his tennis shoes Guess you could call him unique...   Once again, your action news reporter in the booth at the gym Covering the disturbance at the basketball playoffs Pardon me sir, did you see what happened? Yeh, I did...half-time, I was just going down there To get Ethel a snow cone Here he come right our of the cheap seats Dribblin'...right down the middle of the court Didn't have on nothin' but his PF's Made a hook shot and got out thru the concession stand I hollered up at Ethel, I said don't look Ethel It was too late...She'd already got a free shot Grandstanded...Right there in front of the home team   Here he comes...look...who's that with him?

XLRBR Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I have a few but I won't post 'em all at once.  1st: "Black Horse & The Cherry Tree" - KT Tunstall  Two, three, four  (woo-hoo,woo-hoo) (woo-hoo,woo-hoo)  Well my heart knows me better than I know myself So I'm gonna let it do all the talking. (woo-hoo,woo-hoo) I came across a place in the middle of nowhere With a big black horse and a cherry tree. (woo-hoo,woo-hoo)  I fell in fear, upon my back I said don't look back, just keep on walking. (woo-hoo,woo-hoo) When the big black horse said, "LOOK THIS WAY" He said, "Hey little lady, will you marry me?" (woo-hoo,woo-hoo)  But I said no, no, no,no-no-no It said no, no, you're not the one for me No, no, no,no-no-no It said no, no, you're not the one for me  (ooooo,woo-hoo)  And my heart had a problem, in the early hours, So it stopped it dead for a beat or two. (woo-hoo,woo-hoo) But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done that, And it won't forgive me after all these years (woo-hoo,woo-hoo)  So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere With a big black horse and a cherry tree. (woo-hoo,woo-hoo) Now it won't come back, cause it's oh so happy And now I've got a hole for the world to see (woo-hoo,woo-hoo)  But it said no, no, no,no-no-no It said no, no, you're not the one for me No, no, no,no-no-no Said no, no, you're not the one for me  (ooooo,woo-hoo) (not the one for me, yeah) (ooooo,woo-hoo) Said no,no, no,no, no, no, no You're not the one for me Said no,no, no,no, no, no, no You're not the one for me  Big black horse and a cherry tree I can't quite get that cause my heart's forsaken me Big black horse and a cherry tree I can't quite get that cause my heart's forsaken me  This song's about...who knows but KT. I suspect it's about a black horse and a cherry tree... The rest will come...EVENTUALLY!! (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeemerBoy Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ^^I'll read a couple of lines, but not the whole freakin' song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinT Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 My mother went away for a month-long trip Her and some friends on an ocean-liner ship She made a big mistake by leaving me home I had to roam so I picked up the phone Dialed Ali up to see what was going down Told him I pick him up so we could drive around Took the Dodge Dart, a '74 My mother left a yard but I needed one more Shaheed had me covered with a hundred greenbacks So we left Brooklyn and we made big tracks drove down the Belt, got on the Conduit Came to a toll, we paid and went through it Had no destination, we was on a quest Ali laid in the back so he could get rest Drove down the road for two-days-and-a-half The sun had just risen on a dusty path Just then a figure had caught my eye A man with a sombrero who was four feet high I pulled over to ask were we was at His index finger he tipped up his hat "El Segundo," he said, "my name is Pedro If you need directions, I'll tell you pronto" Needed civilization, some sort of reservation He said a mile south, there's a fast food station Thanks, senior, as I start up the motor Ali said, "Damn, Tip, why you drive so far for?"  (Well describe to me what the wallet looks like)  Anyway a gas station we passed We got gas and went on to get grub It was a nice little pub in the middle of nowhere Anywhere would have been better I ordered enchiladas and I ate 'em Ali had the fruit punch When we finished we thought for ways to get back I had a hunch Ali said, "Pay for lunch" So I did it Pulled out the wallet and I saw this wicked beautiful lady She was a waitress there Put the wallet down and stared and stared To put me back into reality, here's Shaheed: "Yo, Tip, man, you got what you need?" I checked for keys and started to step What do you know, my wallet I forget  Yo, it was a brown wallet, it had props numbers Had my jimmy hats I got to get it man  Lord, have mercy The heat got hotter, Ali stars to curse me I fell bad but he makes me feel bad-er Chit-chit-chatter, car stars to scatter Breaking on out, we was Northeast bound Jettin' on down at the speed of sound Three days coming and three more going We get back and there was no slack 490 Madison, we're here, Sha He said, "All right, Tip, see you tomorrow" Thinking about the past week, the last week Hands go in my pocket, I can't speak Hopped in the car and torpe'ed to the shack Of Shaheed, "We gotta go back" when he said "Why?" I said, "We gotta go 'Cause I left my wallet in El Segundo"  Yeah, I left my wallet in El Segundo Left my wallet in El Segundo Left my wallet in El Segundo I gotta get, I got-got ta get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
