old lyrics that could have been written today

[Landphil]

When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now,
Will you still be sending me a Valentine,birthday greetings,
bottle of wine? ... (etc)

Didn't think of that one. I've 17 years left until it loses relevance.

[ResonantOrder]

Love cannot attach itself to binding ugliness
Rot in silence to advise life the point at hand
Indifference resolving of each others needs
Dress it up in false kindness create empathy

Hungry lie beside name your game
Feelings feeling sorry that I ever came
Dissolve taste sweet nothing corporate nothing

Illogical of own accord with choice of politics
Open your eyes to verify the life experience
Practitioner of medicine belong until the end
Bringing hope scars the point extend eternity

Dig it dig it
Execute economic slave
Dig it dig it
Fill it unearthly remains
Dig it dig it
Freedom as an offering
Dig it dig it
Ask again

Flesh and bone attach itself to ancient monuments
Unsurpassed except for us unheard violence
Departure from the fragrant ledge fallen magistrate
Give it back a claim to right value ecstasy

Hungry live decide name your game
Feelings feeling sorry that I ever came
Sugar and water dissolves the taste sweet nothing

Dig it dig it
Execute economic slave
Dig it dig it
Fill it unearthly remains
Dig it dig it
Freedom as an offering
Dig it dig it
Ask again

Boils bitten haggard pick vomit kicking out
Razor slide black eye shroud brain bespattered jaw
Retaliate begrudgingly precise as what it seems
Fear of claim upon the cyst pent up carnal grin

Live decide name your game
Feelings feeling sorry that I ever came
??? too far away game game ??? grave

Dig it dig it
Execute economic slave
Dig it dig it
Fill it unearthly remains
Dig it dig it
Freedom as an offering
Dig it dig it
Ask again

Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Say it:
Rock and roll

If you believe in rock and roll
Then why don't you stand up for what you believe in
You f**king wankers

-Whitehouse 'Rock and Roll', 1980

Everybody's got something to do
I've got nothing but this empty room
Everybody's got some kind of job
Everybody's got someone to love
Not me, I'm f**king the dog

Everybody's got somewhere to go
I've got nothing but this dirty hole
Everybody's going out tonight
I'm staying here and out of sight
Yea, f**king the dog

I'm living in darkness every day
I'm the devil's son some people say
I'm so far gone I can't be saved
I'm just living day to day
Yea, that's right, f**king the dog

C'mon, f**king the dog
That's right, I'm f**king the dog
You're never done 'till you do it like I said
You've got no one to love, I'm just f**king the dog
f**k, f**k, f**king the dog

"Abba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba"
said the monkey to the chimp.
"Abba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba"
said the chimpee to the monk.
All night long they chattered away.
All day long they were happy and gay,
swinging and swaying in a honky, tonky way.


"Abba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba dabba"
said the chimp, "I love but you."
Abba dabba dabba in monkey talk means
"Chimp, I love you too."
Then the ol' baboon, one night in June,
married them and very soon,
they sailed away on an abba dabba honeymoon.

Was Ich haben will, dass krieg Ich nicht
Und was Ich kriegen kann, dass gefaellt mir nicht.
Fehlfarben - Paul ist Tot von Anarchie und Alltag - My fave Neue Welle platte
Translation is something like this:
What I want, I can't get
And what I can get, I don't like....Klasse gefuehl hier!(Sorry German friends, I am a bit rusty)

[Voidoid Surrealist]

Yes it's true I am a young man
but I'm old enough to kill
I don't wanna kill nobody
but I must, if you so will
And if I raise my hand in question
you just say that I'm a fool
Because I've got the gall to ask you
Can you maybe change the rules?
Can you stand and call me upstart?
Ask what answer can I find
I ain't sayin' I'm a genius
2+2 is on my mind

Well I knew a guy in high school
just an average friendly guy
And he had himself a girlfriend
and you made them say goodbye
Now he's buried in the mud
of a foreign jungle land
And his girl just sits and cries
she just doesn't understand
So you say he died for freedom
well if he died to save your lies
go ahead and call me yellow
2+2 is on my mind

All I know is that I'm young
and your rules they are old
If I've got to kill to live
then there's something left untold
I'm no statesman I'm no general
I know that I'll never be
It's the rules not the soldiers
that are my real enemy

I'm no prophet I'm no rebel
I'm just asking you why
I just want a simple answer
Why it is I 've got to die?
I'm a simple minded guy
2+2 is on my mind...

GG always brings a tear to my eye!

it was a tough choice between f**king The Dog, I Wanna Rape You and Hard Candy Cock, but in the end I chose f**king The Dog for its deeper meaning and the heartfelt approach to the subjects of loniless, boredom, isolation and depression - such timeless motifs, told in such a poignant fashion.

we'll never have another poet like GG Allin.

POLITICAL SCIENCE by Randy Newman

No one likes us-I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens
We give them money-but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them

Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us
We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too

Boom goes London and boom Paree
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there'll be Italian shoes for me
They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now

Sickle's probably sick of this song but here goes anyway.

[speaking]
My life was wrapped around the circus. Her name was Lydia. I met her at the World's Fair in 1900... marked down from 1940.

Ah, Lydia! She was the most glorious creature under the suuunnnn. Guiess -- DuBarry -- Garbo, rolled into one.

[singing]
Oooooooh...
Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia?
Lydia the Tattooed Lady.
She has eyes that folks adore so,
And a torso even more so.

Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopidia,
Oh, Lydia the Queen of Tattoo.

On her back is the Battle of Waterloo.
Beside it the wreck of the Hesperus, too.
And proudly above waves the Red, White, and Blue,
You can leaaaaarn a lot from Lydia.

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la...

When her robe is unfurled, she will show you the world,
If you step up and tell her where.
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paree,
Or Washington crossing the Delaware.

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Oh Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia,
Oh, Lydia the Tattooed Lady
When her muscles start relaxin',
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson!

Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopidia,
Oh, Lydia the queen of them all!

For two bits she will do a mazurka in jazz,
With a view of Niagara that nobody has.
And on a clear day you can see Alcatraaaaz --
You can learn a lot from Lydia.

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Come along and see Buff'lo Bill with his lasso --
Just a little classic by Mendel Picasso.
Here is Captain Spaulding exploring the Amazon;
Here's Godiva but with her pajamas on.

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la!

Here's Grover Whalen unveilin' the Trylon;
Over on the West Coast we have Treasure Island.
Here is Nijinsky a-doin' the rhumba...
Here's her social security numba.

[whistles]
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la...

Oh Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopidia!
Lydia, the champ of them all.

She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet
(The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat)...
And now the old boy's in command of the fleet,
For he weeeent and married Lydia!

I said Lydiaaa...
{He said Lydia!}
They said Lydia...
{We said Lydiaaaa!}
La La!

[Bunnyboy]

You talk too much,
Never saying what's on your mind,
It's written on your face,
An' in the words you hide behind
I know what you want,
I can see what you're looking for,
I know what you want from me,
An' I'm gonna give you more

I'm gonna slide it in
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it, in baby...

Sometimes you seem
Just like a stranger to me,
But, all the games you play
Make it so easy to see
You're looking for love,
Tho' you try to deny,
The things you put me through
Tell me what I've got to do to you

I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in...

You talk too much,
Always treating me so unkind,
I know what I've got to do,
To get me some peace of mind

I'm gonna slide it in,
Right to the top,
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it in,
Right to the top
Slide it in,
I ain't never gonna stop
Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in, slide it,
Slide it in, slide it in,
Right to the top, baby...
