heh, might as well start a favorite artists thread with that

well a lot of my favorite verses i like because of the vocal/instrumental performance or the musical content itself. a lyriced example is near the end of the Smashing Pumpkins' Hummer:

Do you feel
Love is real?

by themselves the lyrics aren't too profound, but i love the way they are sung with the accompanying guitars. good verse with good lyrics? Pearl Jam's Black:

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine

King Crimson - Happy With What You Have To Be Happy With

haha

I heard that at work one morning when the manager let me pick the station. He's a fan of Zappa, sort of, so I brought notice to the song. I don't think he got it, though. Either he couldn't understand the lyrics or just didn't hear the connection. I enjoyed it though.

Krimson on the radio?

and about Zappa, that reminds me, I like his dirty stuff

Frank Zappa - Broken Hearts Are For Assholes

Well you say you can't live with what you've been through
But ladies you can be an asshole too
Don't pretend you ain't got one on the bottom of you

But don't fool yourself girl, it's looking at you
Don't fool yourself girl, it's winking at you
Don't fool yourself girl, it's blinking at you
That's why I say
Ram it, ram it, ram it, ram it up yer poop chute
Ram it, ram it, ram it, ram it up yer poop chute (fistfuck)
Ram it, ram it, ram it, ram it up yer poop chute (wristwatch)

And so on

Zappa seems to have a real thing for the poop chute. Anyways

Kingdom of Loss - Pain of Salvation

Life on sale
can someone please just tell me what happened?
I mean, first we pay for fastfood that will make us all fat and tired
so then we pay for elevators
so we won’t have to climb the three stairs up to our aparents
then we buy freakin’ StairMaster machines
so we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV
now, if that doesn’t make us winners I don’t know what will
I bet we would hang ourselves, if the world would just cut us the slack
and now you think maybe you should see a shrink
help you feel alive again - yeah, that’s a plan
just tell us who to pay

I

Pain of Salvation, especially their last two albums. Best. Lyrics. Evar.

Let the christ hating being begin (course i despise these lyrics but it just needs to be said for the sake of metal)

You pray to god every night when you are in bed
You want your god to come and take your pain away
Your Christian god will always say that he is your friend
But I know for fact that all he wants is to give your head
Join your fagot god
Christian fagot race
With open mouth he kneels
Ready to give head
God gives head in heaven
God gives head in heaven
He will swallow it all
Your filthy Christian seed
It ain't no big surprise
This is how your god is like
God gives head in heaven
God gives head in heaven
Forced to fuck your god
He wants it up his ass
Heaven is for fagots
Christian paradise
Now your god wants blood
He takes you from behind
Christian assholes bleed
Holy paradise

When in Rome - The Promise

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you...

From Canadian Loreena McKennitt's latest collection, lyrics by Sir Walter Scott (1805):

It was an English ladye bright,
(The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall,)
And she would marry a Scottish knight,
For Love will still be lord of all.

Blithely they saw the rising sun
When he shone fair on Carlisle wall;
But they were sad ere day was done,
Though Love was still the lord of all.

Her sire gave brooch and jewel fine,
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall;
Her brother gave but a flask of wine,
For ire that Love was lord of all.

For she had lands both meadow and lea,
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall,
For he swore her death, ere he would see
A Scottish knight the lord of all.

That wine she had not tasted well
(The sun shines fair on Carlisle wall)
When dead, in her true love's arms, she fell,
For Love was still the lord of all!

He pierced her brother to the heart,
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall –
So perish all would true love part
That Love may still be lord of all!

And then he took the cross divine,
Where the sun shines fair on Carlisle wall,
And died for her sake in Palestine;
So Love was still the lord of all.

Leck mich im Arsch!
Goethe, Goethe
Gutz von Berlichingen! Zweiter Akt;
Die Szene kennt ihr ja!
Rufen wir nur ganz summarisch
Hier wird Mozart literarisch!

-Mozart.

He was the original Punk Rocker.
