Yeah: if you have anything that rocks even without music - I'm waiting for it right here!
My own first choice is Spinal Tap's Majesty Of Rock (from their Break Like The Wind album); have been listening to it several times today, always laughing my ass off. Sure the pompous vocals by St. Hubbins (the mood of the song is similar to the classic Stonehenge) help to make it so damn funny, but I think even without the sound the words should make you smile several times. Here they go:
Spinal Tap [glow=red,2,300]Majesty Of Rock[/glow]
There's a pulse in the new-born sun
A beat in the heat of the noon
There's a song as the day grows long
And a tempo in the tides of the moon
It's all around us and it's everywhere
And it's deeper than royal blue
And it feels so real you can feel the feeling
And that's the majesty of rock
The fantasy of roll
The ticking of the clock
The wailing of the soul
The prisoner in the dock
The digger in the hole
We're in this together...and ever...
In the shade of a jungle glade
Or the rush of the crushing street
On the plain, on the foamy main
You can never escape from the beat
It's in the mud and it's in your blood
And it's conquest is complete
And all that you can do is just surrender
To the majesty of rock
The pageantry of roll
The crowing of the thingy
The running of the foal
The shepherd with his flock
The miner with his coal
We're in this together...and ever...
When we die, do we haunt the sky?
Do we lurk in the murk of the seas?
What then? Are we born again?
Just to sit asking questions like these?
I know, for I told me so
And I'm sure each of you quite agrees
The more it stays the same, the less it changes
And that's the majesty of rock
The mystery of roll
The darning of the sock
The scoring of the goal
The farmer takes a wife
The barber takes a pole
We're in this together...and ever...

Come on guys - don't tell me you think it's not funny! Check this out again: ...It's all around us and it's everywhere...it feels so real you can feel the feeling.... No? Or this one: When we die, do we haunt the sky? Do we lurk in the murk of the seas? What then? Are we born again? Just to sit asking questions like these? Still not funny? We can't be THAT different, can we?

I'm with you. Spinal Tap rock!!!
My favourite line from that song is "the more it stays the same, the less it changes"
Class.
That's all I wanted to say. I'll dump one of mine on you now:
[glow=red,2,300]The Joneses Divorce Settlement[/glow]
I want a blue car or a red car I don’t mind which, I’m not fussy
Just with four wheels, and four doors, that would be fine, nothing fancy
Just that starts up and gets me there and goes fast when I want it to
Unlike you.
Unlike you.
It was her birthday and naturally I had a gift to buy
I asked her for what wanted, ad instead she asked me why
I’d not chosen yet, I said darling, I wanted to buy a car
But how am I supposed to choose when your criteria are…<br>
I want a blue car or a red car I don’t mind which, I’m not fussy
Just with four wheels, and four doors, that would be fine, nothing fancy
Just that starts up and gets me there and goes fast when I want it to
Unlike you.
Unlike you.
I started to divorce you on the very first day we met
And I think you are the worst old man in fact lets ake a bet
If we don’t meet anyone worse by the time we’re ninety two
Then you can owe me a dinner, or maybe I can own you
I want a blue car or a red car I don’t mind which, I’m not fussy
Just with four wheels, and four doors, that would be fine, nothing fancy
Just that starts up and gets me there and goes fast when I want it to
Unlike you.
Unlike you.

Good!
I decided to give you guys a sample of what Acid Drinkers sing about (wrote about them in the 'Great Unheard Of' thread). You should have no problem finding out who's the actress they praise in their song here - the title gives almost everything away...
Acid Drinkers [glow=red,2,300]Calista[/glow]
I wanna be thin like you, uhh
Thin as my monthly payment.
I could wear your dresses baby
By the monday night, by the pale moonlight
I'll enjoy to wear your stilletos
Your pajamas could be perfect for me
I'd rummage your wardrobe baby
By the monday night, by the pale moonlight
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna be a dancer
As good as you are
I could pinch your ass
When I hold you tight, by the pale moonlight
I adore the mega mess
You got inside your head, your brain will be my bed
I wanna dig in your dump
When I hold you tight, by the pale moonlight
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
I wanna dig in your dump !!!
Skin and bones!
Crocodile gloves!
She loves the jazz!
Baby be my guest!
Skin and bones!
Crocodile gloves!
She loves the jazz!
Baby be my guest!
I wanna be thin like you, uhh
Thin as my monthly payment
I could wear your dresses baby
By the monday night, by the pale moonlight

Your pajamas could be perfect for me
I'd rummage your wardrobe baby
By the monday night, by the pale moonlight

I don't know the title of this song, I think it's "Somebody Kill Me" from the Wedding Singer.
You don't know how much I need you.
While you're near me I don't feel blue.
And when we kiss I know you need me too.
I can't believe I found a love that's so pure and true.
BUT IT ALL WAS BULLSHIT!
IT WAS A GODDAMN JOKE!
AND WHEN I THINK OF YOU, LINDA,
I HOPE YOU FUCKIN' CHOKE!
I hope you're glad with what you've done to me.
I lay in bed all day long feeling melancholy.
You left me here all alone, tears running constantly.
OH SOMEBODY KILL ME PLEASE!
SOMEBODY KILL ME PLEASE!
I'M ON MY KNEES! PRETTY, PRETTY PLEASE! KILL ME!
I WANT TO DIE!
PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD!

Actually, this year's Oscar winning song was really good too.
Into the West
From the Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Lay down
your sweet and weary head
Night is falling,
you have come to journey's end.
Sleep now,
and dream of the ones who came before.
They are calling
from across the distant shore.
Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
all of your fears will pass away,
safe in my arms
you're only sleeping.
What can you see
on the horizon?
Why do those white gulls call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The ships have come to carry you home.
Dawn will turn
to silver glass
A light on the water
All souls pass.
Hope fades
into the world of night
through shadows falling
out of memory and time.
Don't say,
"We have come now to the end."
White shores are calling
you and I will meet again.
And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping.
What can you see
on the horizon?
Why do those white gulls call?
Across the sea
a pale moon rises --
The ships have come to carry you home.
And all will turn
to silver glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the west.

I can tell we'll come to blows soon, Smitty.
Into the west sucks one so big it's coing out the other end.
Everyone knows it was only written to achieve another Oscar for the movie. It was the same when Phill Colins beat South Park

Oh, you wanna start something? Let's take this outside.
Oh, Phil Collins? Sure as hell did NOT deserve the Oscar. "Blame Canada" was the best song of 1999 and everyone (probably including Phil Collins) knows it.
Times have changed.
Our kids are getting worse.
They won't obey their parents,
they just want to fart and curse.
Should we blame the government?
Or blame society?
Or should we blame the images on TV?
No!
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
With all their beady little eyes
and flappin' heads so full of lies.
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
We need to form a full assault.
It's Canada's fault!
Don't blame me
for my son Stan.
He saw the darn cartoon
and now he's off to join the Clan.
And my boy Eric once
had my picture on his shelf.
But now when I see him
he tells me to fuck myself.
Well?
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
It seems that everything's gone wrong
since Canada came along.
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
They're not even a real country anyway.
My son could have been a doctor or a lawyer, It's-a true.
Instead he burned up like a piggy on a barbeque.
Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire
or the doctors who allowed him to expire?
Heck no!
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
With all their Hockey hullabaloo
and that bitch Anne Murray too.
Blame Canada! Shame on Canada
for the smut we must stop,
the trash we must smash,
the laughter and fun
must all be undone.
We must blame them and cause a fuss
before somebody thinks of blaming us!

Oh, you wanna start something? Let's take this outside. Hope you're both alive and well, guys? The song from The Wedding Singer is a riot, by the way! Even without seeing Adam singing it - works pretty damn well! |

Ohhh im all about good lyrics, I don't like gothic lyrics or lyrics that don't mean anything.
Glassjaw - Ry Ry's Song
There's a woman sitting in a motel room
Counting minutes and seconds
Adding to her list of 'one hour loves'
She's tired but the new will do
She'll replace the body
His friends are good for bang-bang
An amiable hobby
He's got a secret
Just keep it and sleep with it
He can't believe a thing you've said
'We're going nowhere'
'...Fair is fair'
The way you play with lives
Is such a big disguise
We swear that
We're not gonna take it
The way you play with lives
Is such a big disguise
We swear
We're not running naked
There's a man sitting in a motel
Waiting for a hooker that he never applied for
Or is it even her?
Just when it's perfect, it's finite
He called it, He said he's sober
It's over, So long
I burn the lamp when I burn when I do, I do everything I do for you
But he hates you, hates you
And I guess it's nothing new for you.

Ahhh why not throw another one in there Glassjaw - Hotel Of The White Locust Welcome to Hollywood Girl My dance has passed. Welcome to Hollywood girl. Wake the fuck up in Hollywood whore. Combine the throbbin' in my head with the rhythm of my fucking feet. Say a novena for all those lost and read the bloodstains on the sheets. I've whored myself for less than this and I've prayed to appear to fed. As I knelt on my pillow God, I clenched the fucking fists and banged my head. Who could ever.. Who the fuck could ever.. Take the place of me? [x2] Now I kiss up to God my fists and I pray to keep my head though I like your pretty eyes better blackened and my fists all fucking red. Through sickness and health, I've kissed up to God two years, I have focused.. On the cameos made by the tiger in the valley of the fucking locust. Who could ever.. Who the fuck could ever.. Take the place of me? Who could ever.. Who the fuck could ever.. No one can the place of me? Wipe... Wipe off your mouth. Get up off your knees and make me your god. Who could ever, Who the fuck could ever? It's sexual debauchery you fucking cunt, you fucking whore, You cost what you're worth. Followed by a boy like this, Re-united by all your visits. As long as your mouth is shut you'll still be fuckin beautiful. Pack your shit and leave, and take my memories of her with you. (I don't need to know) Glassjaw has to be the most original band out there today, if you like older music, newer music you might juts like this stuff. www.glassjaw.comlisten to it, its just mind boggling |

Glassjaw... yeah, I heard some of their songs. I'll try to trace the CD they were on and listen once more to tell you if I like them.
The lyrics above: I like the first much more; in the second one they probably packed too much obscenities, and I always thought that such overload lessens the overall impact.

These lyrics are just classic. See if anyone can figure out what movie this is from.
Your life is spinning out of control.
Seems the whole world is out to get you.
Everything is wrong, nothing seems right.
There's a sinking feeling inside.
Even your best friend has turned his back.
But you can't let it bring you down, no you gotta fight.
Cuz you try but you can't let go.
It's when you're down, but you gotta get up.
Don't let 'em walk all over your face.
Stand up for yourself and make everything right again.
Even if some guy's tryin' to blackmail you,
and your girlfriend thinks you suck.
It's up to you to let them know
that it was all just part of some rich guy's evil plan.
Look out ahead, there's a truck changing lanes.
You got some yellow crumbs on your upper lip.
And those warts on your dick won't go away,
till you start using Topica cream every day...
