New lyrics...

Morality would frown upon

Decency look down upon

The scapegoat fate's made of me

But I promise now, my judge and jurors

My intentions couldn't have been purer

My case is easy to see

 

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience

Peace of mind after what I've been through

And before we talk of any repentance

New lyrics...

The scapegoat fate's made of me

But I promise now, my judge and jurors

My intentions couldn't have been purer

ooooooooooooooooooooh man

Depeche Mode!

Walking In My Shoes!!!

hehehehe

 

Here are some hardcore lyrics:

 

i'll tell you why i don't want to know where you are

i got a joke i been dying to tell you

a silent kid is looking down the barrel

to make the noise that i kept so quiet

Aarty's lyrics, FYI,

Empty spaces - what are we living for

Abandoned places - I guess we know the score

On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for...

Another hero, another mindless crime

Behind the curtain, in the pantomime

Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore

Were from The Show Must Go On by Queen, also showcased in Moulin Rouge, after Satine and Christian are discovered by Zidler. Zidler starts speaking the first two lines, then softly sings the second two, and by the fifth line the entire cast chorus has joined in. Other lyrics to the song are as follows:

 

The show must go on...

The show must go on...

Inside my heart is breaking

My makeup may be flaking

But my smile still stays on

 

I’ll top the bill, I’ll overkill

I have to find the will to carry on

On with the -

On with the show -

The show must go on...

(sigh) Love that song. *Ahem* anyway...

MH, I've no idea what yours are, so I won't hold up the line, but I wanted to clarify what song that was - I'm surprised with the number of people so knowledgeable in the field of music and movies that NOBODY got that one!

Elliot Smith -- Pitseleh

 

Come on, come on

Turn a little faster

Come on, come on

The world will follow after

Come on, come on

Cause everybody's after love

 

So I said I'm a snowball running

Running down into the spring that's coming all this love

Melting under blue skies

Belting out sunlight

Shimmering love

 

Well baby I surrender

To the strawberry ice cream

Never ever end of all this love

Well I didn't mean to do it

But there's no escaping your love

Sorry, new lyrics time:

 

I take one, one, one cause you left me and

Two, two, two for my family and

Three, three, three for my heartache and

Four, four, four for my headaches and

Five, five, five for my lonely and

Six, six, six for my sorrow and

Seven, Seven...for no tomorrow and

Eight, eight, I forget what eight was for and

Nine, nine, nine for a lost God and

Ten, ten, ten, ten for everything everything everything everything.

 

*Trvial note: In case you didn't know, the singer is refering to pills in this part of the song.

Counting Crows - Accidentally in Love

 

Jax - Yours is the Violent Femmes - Kiss Off, if I'm not mistaken.

 

I need to just bookmark this thread because I always forget about it, and when I find it, there's a song that I know, that's been skipped for lack of an answer. Sheesh!

 

Anyway, next... I fucking LOVE this song:

 

Breaking my back just to know your name

Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game

I'm breaking my back just to know your name

But heaven ain't close in a place like this

Anything goes but don't blink you might miss

Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this

I said heaven ain't close in a place like this

Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight

Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I LOVE THAT SONG TOO!!!!!

"somebody told me" by the killers

 

new jersey bound when sound asleep they'll find you at your most vulnerable

poll position speak up let out

when down the street the corner boys fuck shit up

 

scream loud scream sayonara

sweet josephine will you follow me home

scream loud scream sayonara

sweet josephine will you fuck me back home

Wee! Coheed and Cambria - Devil in Jersey City

 

I'll give Jax a nice easy one...

 

As they speed through the finish the flags go down.

The fans get up, and get out of town.

The arena is empty except for one man,

Still driving and striving as fast as he can

I don't know what otehr people say

Or what they think is love

But I know what it means to me

I fall in love so easily

 

Get back to us on that one, Jax...moving right along...

 

Stop playing with my heart

Finish what you start

When you make my love come down

If you want me let me know

Baby let it show

Honey don't you fool around

Okay, moving right along...that last one was "Borderline" by: Madonna

 

next up:

 

She grew up in an Indiana town

Had a good lookin' momma who never was around

But she grew up tall and she grew up right

With them Indiana boys on an Indiana night

Well she moved down here at the age of 18

She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd se en

I was introduced and we both started groovin'

She said, "I dig you baby but I got to keep movin'"

...on, keep movin' on

Yeah, i dont keep up with this one, either. Here's a last-ditch effort with a cool new song:

 

The night is full of holes

These bullets rip the sky

Of ink with gold

They twinkle

As the boys play rock and roll

They know that they can't dance

At least they know

 

I can't stand the beats

I'm asking for the check

Girl with crimson nails

Has Jesus 'round her neck

Swinging to the music

Swinging to the music...

This is definitely tougher than the movie lines thread. I still wanna play but I either don't know it or everybody knows it and gets there first. Lets keep it mainstrteam people, perhaps a Britney lyrics thread or something :D

 

 

An attempt to salvage. Just playing this on the radio now...

 

Love machine on the sympathy crutches

Discount orgies on the drop-out buses

Taking a ride with the bleeding noses

Coming to town with the briefcase blues.... :D

Well, I can't get that last one and it's been two weeks so mind if I give it a shot?

 

Welcome to your life

There's no turning back

Even while sleep

We will find you

Acting on your best behaviour

Turn your back on mother nature

 

I think it's pretty easy...
