Glassjaw - Two Tabs of Mescaline

Next lyric:
Hold on, cause you'll never miss your own
Until that water's gone, it's wrong, it's wrong, so hold on
Hold on, cause you'll never miss your own
Until that water's gone, it's wrong, be strong and hold on

Pat McCurdy - Wake Up Go To Work

Next lyrics:
If first you don't succeed try, try again
Step up to the mic and die again
This is the next lifetime and you wanna battle
Either you like reincarnation or the smell of carnations
The sample's the flesh and the beat's the skeleton
You got beef but there's worms in your Wellington

By intangibles, she meant the Internet, movies, music, stories, art, rumors, computer programs, anything that isn't real. Virtual realities. Make-believe stuff. The culture. The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because it's only the intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles.

"After the Goldrush" by Young Neil

Next lyrics:
An artsman and an engineer once found a gallon can
So artsman, "match me drink for drink, let's see if you're a man."
They took three drinks, the artsman fell; his face was turning green,
but the engineer drank on and said, "It's only gasoline."

Next:
Hey, what's the use of singing this song, some of you are not even listening.
Tell me what it is we've got to do: wait for our fields to start glistening,
Wait for the bullets to start whistling.
Here comes a hydrogen bomb, here comes a guided missile,
Here comes a hydrogen bomb: I can almost hear its whistle.

New lyrics:

you rhapsodize about beauty
and my eyes glaze
everything i love is ugly
i mean really, you would be amazed
just do me a favor
it's the least that you can do
just don't treat me like i am
something that happened to you

(awesome song)


Next - a fitting lyric for today's date:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

Hello one and all,
Is it you I used to know?
Can't you hear me call
on this old ham radio.

All I've got to say
I'm alive and feeling fine.
If you come my way,
you can share my poisoned wine.

Or will you take to the hills?"

If frown is shown then

new lyric:

YO SAY. Summer love will stimulate my heart tonight
Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone
Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat
Precious love is always eating up my heart

Uncheatable her shapely line
A convict of her lithe crime
Save me and wrap around one more time
Make a change and turn around under a wave
Back on ground holding scolding the darker side

The summer is burning a hole in my heart
Stripping me down to hot temptation
It's OK to give in be beaten by lust, summer wind,
Burning air a scandal affair

Fairies, summer folk will stimulate my fantasies
Mysterious mermaid barefoot all alone
Wishing revealing it's the fruit I want to eat
Precious love is always eating up my heart

Fagged out that's you and me, gave you the better side of me
This town is gloomy nothing to be found
Don't wanna stop or cool down, go forever not hang around
Don't wanna hear a boring joke in my open mind

The sky is burning a firework delight
Painting colour through the night
Holding me tightly I grab the light, summer wind,
Burning fire, getting me high

Fairies, summer love will burn up my fantasies
Hurricane in my heart whirling desire
I wanna say what's on my mind give you all I have to give
You and me freely taking all night

The city is burning a hold in my soul
It's making me drunk cold wine kiss
I want to feel the touch of the sea, summer spray,
Refreshing air, taking me where

Fairies, summer folk will stimulate my heart tonight
Belly button mermaid barefoot all alone
Daisuke is telling me it's the only place to be
There's no problem take a chance and you'll be there

YO SAY. I say who do you wanna do it with
You can say goodbye to a night on your own
If you want precious love I can give it anytime
Revealing stealing never getting dry

Tom Waits - Grapefruit Moon

new lyric:

Torch the treasure!
Torch the shovels!
Torch these hands dipped in gold lacquer,
Torch the finger-prints painting a violence portrait on spinal wings.
I buried my bride of eight inch fingers neck deep in the hungry quicksand.
I buried out children of pineapple skin
where the generic sunsets sparkle so bland.
I split my grandmother like a rotten papaya...
our fright to pollenate the flowers of fire.
I vomited my skeleton and donated it to the war mausoleum...
I cut my will and testament along the scar tissue seam.
I packaged my heart and fed-ex'd it to the octopus queen.
