Single Line Of An Mg Song That Just Stands Out

Recommended Posts

"...and the evening news people sat in their chairs and waited for their make-up, and the police controlling the crowd on the street, well they didn't think to look up, and it suddenly seemed that the world would turn the other way, as if the sun had come out and then changing the darkness into day, and perhaps we are most peaceful when our sanity's on edge, cause no one bothered to wonder who the guy was, standing on the ledge, so you just don't look down, don't look down, don't look down, it'll go away, don't look down, don't look down, don't look down just...push"

 

one of the best "lines" (i guess) ever

what song is that from?

from 'the inescapable us':

 

your sparkling spot hasn't caught on

 

-everytime i hear it, it reminds me of a girl from school (the 'girl of my dreams' ;) ) who used to wear these sparkley bhindi spot things (i don't know what they were actually called) on her forehead.

While We Were Hunting Rabbits - This song just grabs my soul

 

 

Buy in it'll shut you up

Try it, it should should you up

We've brought someone in to shut you up

It's a life's work

 

While we were hunting rabbits

I came upon a clear

The sky its stars like fortune drilled me

Until now I was a soldier

Until now I dealt in fear

These years of cloak and dagger

Have left us disappeared

 

And I dance and I sing

And I'm a monkey in a long line

 

Buy in it should shut you up

Try it, it should should you up

They've brought someone in to shut you up

And its getting to be light work

 

While we were hunting rabbits

I came upon a clear

The sky its stars like fortune filled me

Until now I was a soldier

Until now I dealt in fear

These years of cloak and dagger

Have left us disappeared

 

And I dance and I sing

And I'm a monkey in a long line of kings

And we dance and we sing

And we're all monkey's in a long line

 

I'm just a boat in the ocean

And I'm just a ship lost at sea

Did you ever feel like you're living in a time without a reason,

a year without a season,

another day cut by the killing joke

If I was on the outside looking at the inside

I would burn this place to the ground

Straight to the ground, now

"Only killers call killing progress."

I very much want this for a bumper sticker/window decal of sorts... especially with living in the states... sad thing is, most people probably wouldn't have a clue.... seeing as how, most don't....

 

 

beyond that there are several that always make me catch my breath at the beauty and complexity (and how they ring true to my life/relationship with my husband)

 

"The world's stopping but we keep going"

 

"It makes me sick

It makes me laugh when I look at you

Clap while it's kicking us around"

 

"and you know that the story isn't over

because no-one knows you like I do

...

and I believe that the story isn't over

because no-one knows me like you do

...

no-one knows us like we do"

 

 

and i'm sure about 50 more lines!
