    mines,
    korn-
    Falling Away From Me

    Hey, I'm feeling tired
    My time, is gone today
    You flirt with suicide
    Sometimes, that's ok
    Hear what others say
    I'm here, standing hollow
    Falling away from me
    Falling away from me

    Day, is here fading
    That's when, I would say
    I flirt with suicide
    Sometimes kill the pain
    I can always say
    'It's gonna be better tomorrow
    Falling away from me
    Falling away from me

    Beating me down
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground
    Screaming so sad
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground

    (falling away from me)
    It's spinning round and round
    (falling away from me)
    It's lost and can't be found
    (falling away from me)
    It's spinning round and round
    (falling away from me)
    So down

    Beating me down
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground
    Screaming so sad
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground

    Pressing me, they won't go away
    So I pray, go away

    It's falling away from me

    Beating me down
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground
    Screaming so sad
    Beating me, beating me
    Down, down
    Into the ground

    [​IMG] Puff the Magic Dragon

    Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
    And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
    Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
    And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff, oh

    (CHORUS)
    Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
    And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
    Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
    And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.

    Together they would travel on boat with billowed sail
    Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail
    Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came
    Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his
    name, oh

    CHORUS

    A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys
    Painted wings and giants's rings make way for other toys.
    One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
    And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.


    His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain
    Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
    Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave
    So, Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave, oh


    CHORUS

    Sing it with me everyone!
    <sniff> <sob> <choke> ;)

    so give her inches
    and feed her well...

    [​IMG] Ahem! *clears his throat*

    A Wizard's Staff Has a Knob on the End

    A wizard's staff has a knob on the end
    It never will buckle, it never will bend
    He cherishes it, and he calls it his friend,
    and he frequently takes it in hand.

    A wizard's staff is the source of his power.
    He checks up on it every hour on the hour
    And he's never surprised when it turns to a flower --
    The fairest throughout all the land.

    The staff of a wizard with honour is crowned.
    Without it a wizard will rarely be found.
    'Tis big and its round and weighs three to the pound
    And without it he's truly unmanned.

    The staff of a wizard can do mighty deeds.
    It protects him from harm and attends to his needs,
    Provides him with banquets upon which he feeds
    And potions on which he gets canned.

    Whenever a wizard is lonely or sad,
    Or feeling dejected, or puzzled, or mad,
    He turns to his staff, and things don't seem so bad --
    By it he is never trepanned.

    The staff of a wizard is dear to his heart
    The source and the succour of his magic art.
    They travel together, are never apart,
    A relationship few understand.

    A wizard is rarely of heroic build
    Were it not for his staff, he would surely be killed.
    By demons or monsters his blood would be spilled
    All over the pitiless sand.

    A wizard in thought, word, and deed should be chaste
    If he is not, he's considered disgraced.
    Although in his dreams he is often embraced
    By ladies both lissom and tanned.

    The staff of a wizard is polished with care.
    He anoints it with spices and unguents rare,
    Bedecks it with silver and jewels most fair,
    And on feast days he has it japanned.

    A wizard when young has a staff that is small.
    It's puny and weak, ineffective withal.
    It grows with his power until it stands tall
    As his fame and his glory expand.

    The staff of a wizard can hold many spells
    For finding lost objects or dowsing new wells
    For banishing demons to bottomless hells
    Or bringing them back on demand.

    A wizard's staff can do manifold tricks
    To puzzle the nobles and fuddle the hicks
    It rescues the wizard from many a fix --
    It is totally at his command.

    When a wizard is old, and is starting to fade
    He looks on his staff that with cunning he made
    The crown of his life and the tool of his trade
    And together they make their last stand.

    Rollin' in my 5.0 with my rag top down so my hair can blow....

    no serioulsy now. lets see if anyone can get this one.

    I been balling a shiny black steel jack-hammer,
    Been chippin' up rocks for the great highway,
    I'll live five years if I take my time,
    Ballin' that jack and a drinkin' my wine.

    I been chippin' them rocks from dawn till doom,
    While my rider hide my bottle in the other room.
    Doctor say better stop ballin' that jack,
    If I live five years I gonna bust my back, yes I will.

    Easy wind cross the Bayou today
    Cause there's a whole lotta women, mama,
    Out in red on the streets today.
    And the river keeps a talkin',
    But you never heard a word it said.

    Gotta find a woman be good to me,
    Won't hide my liquor try to serve me tea,
    Cause I'm a stone jack baller and my heart is true
    And I'll give everything that I got to you, yes I will.

    Easy wind going cross the Bayou today
    There's a whole lotta women
    Out in red on the streets today.
    And the rivers keep a talkin',
    But you never heard a word it said.

    It is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know
    You are the sunlight in my growing - so little warmth I've felt before
    It isn't hard to feel me glowing - I watched the fire that grew so low
    It is the summer of my smiles - flee from me, keepers of the gloom
    Speak to me only with your eyes - it is to you I give this tune
    Ain't so hard to recognise - these things are clear to all from time to time

    I've felt the coldness of my winter - I never thought it would ever go
    I cursed the gloom that set upon us - but I know that I love you so
    But I know that I love you so

    These are the seasons of emotion - and like the winds they rise and fall
    This is the wonder of devotion - I see the torch we all must hold
    This is the mystery of the quotient - upon us all a little rain must fall

    Well I can say for sure both of these songs are from the same period, Wingfoot. Sounds like could be the same band, but I've never encountered yours... This one is my favorite song of all time, but u've got to listen to its 7 minutes run to appreciate it, lyrics kinda secondary here.

    The Decline by NOFX.

    Where are all these stupid people from
    and how did they get to be so dumb
    Bred on purple mountain range
    Feed amber waves of grains
    To lesser human beings, zero feelings
    Blame it on human nature, man's destiny
    Blame it on the greediocracy
    The fear of God, the fear of change, fear of truth
    Add the Bill of Rights
    Subtract the wrongs, there's no answers
    Memorize and sing
    Star spangled songs, when the questions
    Aren't ever asked
    Is anybody learning from the past
    We're living in united stagnation
    Father what have I done.
    I took that 22.
    A gift for me from you to bed with me each night.
    Kept it clean polished it well.
    Cherished every cartridge every shell
    Down by the creek under brush under dirt
    There's a carcass of my second kill
    Down at the park under stone under pine
    There's a carcass of my brother William
    Brother where have you gone to I swear
    I never thought I could I see so many times
    They told me to shoot straight, don't pull
    The trigger squeeze, that will insure
    A kill, a kill is what you want
    To kill is why we breed
    The Christians love their guns the church and NRA
    Pray for their salvation
    Prey on lower faiths
    The story book's been read
    And every line believed
    The curriculum's been set
    Logic is a threat
    Reason searched and seized
    Jerry spent some
    Time in Michigan
    A 20 year vacation
    After all he had a dime
    A dime is worth a
    Lot more in Detroit
    A dime in California
    Just a 20 dollar fine
    Jerry only stayed
    A couple months
    It's hard to enjoy
    Yourself while
    Bleeding out the ass
    Asphyxiation is
    Simple and fast
    It beats 17 fun years
    Of being someone's bitch
    Don't think
    Drink your wine
    Watch the fire burn
    His problems not mine
    Just be that model citizen
    I wish I had a schilling for every senseless killing
    I'd buy a government. America's for sale and
    You can get a good deal on it and make a healthy
    Profit, or maybe tear it apart you start with
    Assumption, that a million people are smarter than one
    Serotonin's gone she gave up drifted away
    Sara fled thought process gone
    She left her answering machine on
    The greeting left spoken sincere
    Messages no one will ever hear
    10,000 messages a day a million more transmissions lay
    Dead victims of the laissez faire 10,000 voices
    100 guns, 100 decibels turns to one, one bullet
    One empty head now with serotonin gone
    The man that used to speak
    Performs a cute routine.
    Feel a little patronized.
    Don't feel bad. They found
    A way inside your head
    And you feel a bit misled.
    It's not that they don't
    Care. The television's
    Put a thought inside your
    Head like a Barry Manilow
    Jingle I'd like to teach the
    World to sing in perfect
    Harmony a symphonic blank
    Stare. It doesn't make you care.
    Not designed to make you care.
    They're betting you wont care.
    They'll place a wager on your greed.
    A wager on your pride
    Why try to beat them when a million others tried
    We are the whore.
    Intellectually spayed
    We are the queer
    Dysfunctionally raised
    One more pill to kill the pain,
    One more pill to kill the pain
    One more pill to kill the pain,
    Living through conformity
    One more prayer should keep me safe.
    One more prayer to keep us safe
    One more prayer to keep us safe
    There's gonna be a better place
    Lost the battle lost the war lost the things
    Worth living for lost the will to win the fight
    One more pill to kill the pain
    The going gets tough the tough get debt
    Don't pay attention pay the rent our next of kins
    Pay for your sins a little faith should keep us safe
    Save us
    The human existence is failing
    Resistance essential. The future
    Written off. The odds are astronomically
    Against us only
    Moron and genius would fight a
    Losing battle against the super
    Ego when giving in is so damn comforting
    And so we go on with our lives we
    Know the truth but prefer lies
    Lies are simple. Simple is bliss. Why
    Go against tradition when we can
    Admit defeat. Live in decline. Be there
    Victim of our own design
    With status quo built on suspect.
    Why would anyone stick out their
    Neck fellow member of club
    We've got ours. I'd
    Like to introduce
    You to our host
    He's got his and I've
    Got mine. Meet
    THE DECLINE

    And it feels right this time
    On this crash course we're in the big time
    Pay no mind to the distant thunder
    Beauty fills his head with wonder, boy....

    Says it feels right this time
    Turn around, found new high lights

    Good day to be alive Sir
    Good day to be alive, he said.....

    Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    is just a freight train coming your way
    Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    is just the freight train coming your way

    Don't it feel right like this
    All the pieces fall to his wish
    Suck up for that quick reward boy
    Suck up for that quick reward they said.....

    Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    is just a freight train coming your way
    Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    is just the freight train coming your way......
    It's coming your way
    It's coming your way......
    Here comes

    Yeah, Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
    Is just a freight train coming your way.... Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...
    Then it comes to be, Yeah...

    or how about this?


    Say your prayers little one
    Don't forget, my son
    To include everyone

    Tuck you in, warm within
    Keep you free from sin
    Till the sandman he comes

    Sleep with one eye open
    Gripping your pillow tight

    Exit light
    Enter night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Something's wrong, shut the light
    Heavy thoughts tonight
    And they aren't of snow white

    Dreams of war, dreams of liars
    Dreams of dragon's fire
    And of things that will bite

    Sleep with one eye open
    Gripping your pillow tight

    Exit light
    Enter night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Now I lay me down to sleep
    Pray the lord my soul to keep
    If I die before I wake
    Pray the lord my soul to take

    Hush little baby, don't say a word
    And never mind that noise you heard
    It's just the beast under your bed,
    In your closet, in your head

    Exit light
    Enter night
    Grain of sand

    Exit light
    Enter night
    Take my hand
    We're off to never never land

    Yep.

    Then there's the all time greatest nursery rhymes:

    Little Miss Muffet
    Sat on a tuffet
    Eating her curds and whey
    Along came a Spider
    And sat down beside her...
    AND THREW HER OUT THE WINDOW!
    THE WINDOW! THE WINDOW!
    HE THREW HER OUT THE WINDOW!
    ALONG CAME A SPIDER
    AND SAT DOWN BESIDE HER
    AND THREW HER OUT THE WINDOW!

    Little Bunny FooFoo
    Hopping through the forest
    Picking up the field mice...
    AND THREW THEM OUT THE WINDOW!
    THE WINDOW! THE WINDOW!
    HE THREW THEM OUT THE WINDOW!
    LITTLE BUNNY FOOFOO
    HOPPING THROUGH THE FOREST
    AND THREW THEM OUT THE WINDOW!

    They're a band called "Trout Fishing in America", they just do crazy stuff. If anyone has Napster (or the like), download "18 Wheels on a Big Rig". They're also the only known band that can play (and sing) "Stairway to Heaven" backwards.

    Rather than type an entire song, I think I'll share what I believe to be some true lyrical gems.

    Frank Zappa:

    "Ooh little girl there ain't no time to wash your stinky hand"

    "I just met a girl called Dynamoh Humm, she said I got a 40 dollar sayin' you can't make me cum"

    "The poodle bites, the poodle chews it"

    "I got a cheerleader here that wamts to help with my paper, let her do all the work and maybe later I'll rape her"

    You need a twisted sense of humor to enjoy Frank.

    Mos Def and Talib Kweli (Hip Hop)

    "Things I say and do, may not come clean through My words may not convey just what I'm feeling"

    "Life without knowledge is death in disguise"

    "The most important time in history is... Now, the present"

    "So much on my mind that I can't recline, blastin' holes in the night 'til she bled sunshine
    Breath in... Ill vapers from bright stars that shine
    Breathe out... Weed smoke retraced the skyline
    Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call, I can't take it y'all
    I can feel the city breathin'
    Chest heavin'
    Against the flesh of the evenin'"

    Widespread Panic:

    "It don't do no good to tell a dyin' man, you never meant to shoot him down"

    "I like coconuts, you can break 'em open and they smell like ladies lyin' in the sun"

    "I think my principles are reachin' an all time low"

    Little Feat:

    "Off my rocker, actin' crazy
    and with the right medication we.. won't be lazy
    Old folks boogie, down on the farm, wheel chairs and walkers locked on the lawn

    You know, that you're over the hill
    When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill"
    (Referring to impotence)

    "Smuggled some smokes and folks from Mexico"

    'If you give me.. weed.. whites.. and wine.. and if you show me a sign
    Then I'll be willin'.. to be movin''

    A Tribe Called Quest:

    'I'm seein' you baby, and it's all outta position
    Wonderin' who's the dime piece that you're kissin'
    You might as well take the jigga' and take my life 'cause the dime piece you happen to be kissin' is my wife
    Shit
    I shoulda known not to let these crab asses, get within the circle of my girl and make passes
    Now you're disrespectin' me and everything I stand for
    ...but I'm sayin though, son...
    Shh say no more, Allah forgive me
    My thoughts is travellin' with ill desire
    Should I turn the other cheek, or react how I aspire
    Don't want to see myself in penatentiary attire
    But I'm caught up in the act and man, the bullshit is dire'

    I'll finish with a full song by a Canadian band called The Tragically Hip, I know I said I wouldn't, but this is too good to be unknown.

    Thirty-Eight Years Old

    'Twelve men broke loose in '73
    From Millhaven maximum security
    Twelve pictures lined up across the front page
    Seems the mounties had a summertime war to wage
    The chief told the people they had nothing to fear
    Said "The last thing you wanna do is hang around here"
    They mostly came from towns with long French names
    But one of the dozen was a home town shame

    chorus:

    Same pattern on the table
    Same clock on the wall
    Been one seat empty eighteen years in all
    Freezin' slow time away from the world
    He's 38 years old, never kissed a girl

    We were sittin' 'round the table, heard the telephone ring
    Father said he'd tell 'em if he saw anything
    Heard the tap on my window, in the middle of the night
    Held back the curtain for my older brother Mike

    See my sister got raped, so a man got killed
    Local boy went to prison, man's buried on the hill
    Folks went gack to normal when they closed the case
    They still stare at their shoes when they pass our place

    My mother cried "The horror has finally ceased"
    He whispered "Yeah, for the time being, at least"
    Over her shoulder, on the squad car megaphone
    Said "Let's go Michael, son, were takin' you home"'

    Repeat chorus:

    A powerful story...

    I've got thousands of songs to think through so this may not be the last post here.

    Hmmm... I dunno... I've got kind of a thing for 2-handed swords, myself... Although the staff sounds kind of cute! ;) :D

    Nice lyrics, Tal :D

    Although, being the good Paladin I am, I'd still prefer the 2-hander, no doubt about that. ;)
