My parents were at a Tom Paxton gig a while back. He's a folk singer well known for his political tunes, and he told the crowd he had written a song about how he felt when GWB was re-elected as president. It's only lyric was "Shit."

zekterellium:
my favourite lyrics right now are isis, but in a few weeks it'll prolly be alexisonfire again. but anyway, here we go.

Long you both laid in the sun's yellow stare, on the edge with eyes rolled back, the waves we're calling him. As he teetered on the edge, the waves were calling him

Aphi:
"Well the point was fast but it was too blunt to miss, life handed us a paycheck and we said, 'we worked harder than this!'"

Okay, so it's only 'cause I'm flooding my house with Modest Mouse cranked as loud as it'll go, but I still love that line. 's from Bury Me With It.

"I am a prisoner in a war full of idiots
the stomping feet of waltzing hypocrites
pave the way for a brave tomorrow
choke the throat of passion and sorrow
kill my drifting breeze of thought
I have been captured, I have been caught
I am a prisoner in a war of scowls
coughing youth from it's bowels
I'm doing fine
I'm feeling well
deep inside my dark well cell"

- Punk Rock in the Wrong Hands by pageninetynine


"Here comes the future and you can’t run from it
If you’ve got a blacklist I want to be on it"

- Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards by Bully Bragg


"I'm a clown and I'm choking on blood, teeth and tongue
fuck the spectators, fuck the 'he was so young'
fuck the forced sympathy through lifeless glass eyes
povichian voyeurs drinking my cries
fuck faced trilobites waiting to die
I can't stand the humor
and I can't stand the lies"

- Alert the Audience by The Lawrence Arms


"a fistfull of feeling tossed into the water
the boat has a hole we're sinking take it in stride and stand down
the world comes much harder than one thousand hard hands
and when it fights fight back with bright minds
yes it is uncertain but i'm surely certain that we all must get along
and take it in hand and pull yourself up
this comes much harder than one thousand hard hands
such in that gut you're in luck
you've got one thousand people on your side
take it in stride
and when there's nothing left to patch the hole
we'll swim together and let the boat sink to the bottom of the stream
with all it's long lost friends
(abandoned drown in loneliness not strong enough to hold our dreams)
and if it comes down to just you and i
standing on the last corner of the last town
of the last city in the burning world
you'll still have someone on your side
life is bigger, so much bigger than all of this"

- The Nautical Mile by The Broadways

QHD:
The two of you who mentioned Oh Comely deserve medals. Lyrically that song is indeed Godcake.
Anyhoo:

These walls are paper thin and everyone hears every little sound
Everyone’s a voyeur as they’re watching me watch them watch me right now
They’re shaking hands and shaking in their shoes, oh lord don’t shake me down
Everyone wants two of them and half of everyone else who's around
It’s been agreed the whole world stinks so no one’s taking showers anymore
Laugh hard, it’s a long ways to the bank
-Isaac Brook, Modest Mouse - Paper Thin Walls
