Lyrics That Stuck

[Dirtgrain]

Yeah you know when I drink alone,
I prefer to be by myself

[Bunny_boy]

You

[harryupbabble]

with, without
and who can deny
it's what
the fighting is
all about

[Bunny_boy]

Obviously I can't recite them off the top of my head, but I really like these. Velvets The Gift for the modern age

Back at their place we took drugs and decided to make a
Stop-motion animation film
It was about this doll
And she’s having sex with this other doll
But it starts to not go so well
So she’s cutting hеrself with razor blades

And we’rе like “We need blood for this”
So we’re pricking ourselves with needles
Getting only little droplets
But it’s not nearly enough

Joe gets up and disappears into the corner of the basement
Lindsey and I are quietly working on our shots
The man comes back to the center of the room and he says
“I’ve got the blood”
Lindsey runs upstairs immediately now
Screaming, crying
The man has sawed his arm to the bone
And he is bleeding all over the place

[cryophonik]

In the ironbound section near Avenue L
Where the Portuguese women come to see what you sell
The clouds so low the morning so slow
As the wires cut through the sky

Beams and bridges cut the light on the ground
Into little triangles and the rails run round
Through the rust and heat
The light and sweet coffee color of her skin

- Suzanne Vega

[mumpcake]

It falls apart, we all got work to do

[Bunny_boy]

In the ironbound section near Avenue L
Where the Portuguese women come to see what you sell
The clouds so low the morning so slow
As the wires cut through the sky

Beams and bridges cut the light on the ground
Into little triangles and the rails run round
Through the rust and heat
The light and sweet coffee color of her skin

- Suzanne Vega

I bloody love Suzanne Vega

[Bunny_boy]

Goodnight my love
Remember me as you fall to sleep
Fill your pockets with the dust and the memories
That rises from the shoes on my feet

Pretty much all the lyrics from Spiderland are wonderful, imho, but I think the opening to Washer stands out.

[Bunny_boy]

And you my love, won't you take my hand?
We'll go back in time to that mystic land
Where the dew drops cry and the cats meow
I will take you there, I will show you how

[harryupbabble]

^^^ sounds familiar
googling now for confirmation

aarrghhh
it's from spinal tap

the one i was thing of was madonna's like a prayer

[osiris]

Lesson number one, we've just begun to hurt her so
And with lesson two she'll long for you when lights are low
And we get to lesson three when she gets down on her knees
And begs you to stop at the door just before she comes apart
Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
Now we've made a trail of tears for her to follow
And we've thought of every line that she might swallow
And with lesson four, there'll be no more for her to bear
And on some dark night we'll dim the lights on this affair
Then she'll find somebody new and he'll likely hurt her too
'Cause there must be millions just like you and me, practiced in the art
Oh, and this is the way we make a broken heart

[harryupbabble]

cortez, cortez
tsk, tsk
what a killer

[jupiter8]

There's a club if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry
And you want to die

Happy new year everyone!

[trewq]

Just another loner, you guys are killing me tonight.

[farlukar]

One of these days I'll sell my soul and let them find out what they bought
