  1. Bob Dylan Masters Of War

    Come you masters of war

    You that build the big guns

    You that build the death planes

    You that build all the bombs

    You that hide behind walls

    You that hide behind desks

    I just want you to know

    I can see through your masks

     

    You that never done nothin'

    But build to destroy

    You play with my world

    Like it's your little toy

    You put a gun in my hand

    And you hide from my eyes

    And you turn and run farther

    When the fast bullets fly

     

    Like Judas of old

    You lie and deceive

    A world war can be won

    You want me to believe

    But I see through your eyes

    And I see through your brain

    Like I see through the water

    That runs down my drain

     

    You fasten all the triggers

    For the others to fire

    Then you set back and watch

    While the death count gets higher

    Then you hide in your mansion

    While the young people's blood

    Flows out of their bodies

    And is buried in the mud

     

    You've thrown the worst fear

    That can ever be hurled

    Fear to bring children

    Into the world

    For threatening my baby

    Unborn and unnamed

    You ain't worth the blood

    That runs in your veins

     

    How much do I know

    To talk out of turn

    You might say that I'm young

    You might say I'm unlearned

    But there's one thing I know

    Though I'm younger than you

    Even Jesus would never

    Forgive what you do

     

    Let me ask you one question

    Is your money that good

    Will it buy you forgiveness

    Do you think that it could

    I think you will find

    When your death takes its toll

    All the money you made

    Will never buy back your soul

     

    And I hope that you die

    And your death'll come soon

    I will follow your casket

    In the pale afternoon

    And I'll watch while you're lowered

    Down to your deathbed

    And I'll stand o'er your grave

    'Til I'm sure that you're dead

  2. Take the highway to the end of the night

    End of the night, end of the night

    Take a journey to the bright midnight

    End of the night, end of the night

     

    Realms of bliss, realms of light

    Some are born to sweet delight

    Some are born to sweet delight

    Some are born to the endless night

    End of the night, end of the night

    End of the night, end of the night

     

    Realms of bliss, realms of light

    Some are born to sweet delight

    Some are born to sweet delight

    Some are born to the endless night

    End of the night, end of the night

    End of the night, end of the night

  3. checked out those other polls. i know you did'nt write the song poll, but what the fuck? no babe im gonna leave you.

    oh and i totally agree with the whole slow motion cowboy thing while listenin to when the levee breaks. listenin to it right now

  4. i thought my name might cause some confusion. although i cant think of anything id like in the world more than my very own pair of breasts, alas this is not the case, i am a beer-bellied, hairy man.

    alive she cried is a line from a doors song, maybe i should change my name to "when the musics over".

    jack its not that im opposed to the idea of liking early beatles, did you ever think that it's possible for someone to just not like it?

    oh and i agree, about since i've been loving you. it is better than achilles last stand. don't know why i chose it, it was just first zep song that came to mind. my fav zep song is babe im gonna leave you. but that's a comment for a different thread.

    maybe someone should do a best zep album poll

  5. to set the record straight i did'nt say the beatles were'nt genius'. i said "i want to hold your hand " was'nt. genius songs are "bold as love" (instrumental) by jimi hendrix, "riders on the storm" by the doors, "achilles last stand" by led zeppelin, "what in the world" by rory gallagher and "i want you (she's so heavy)" by the beatles. i DO love the beatles, i just hate their early stuff.

  6. "genius" the most overused word in the english language. the idea of "i want to hold your hand" being a genius song is laughable.

    so they made the word hide sound like high, thats an amazing achievment. truly, if i was looking for just one definition of the word genius that would be it, making one four letter word sound like another four letter word.

    the structure of the early songs? made a differnece to modern music yes, but their true impact is'nt felt until the far greater later albums.

    as for their "great blues tunes", they're nothing but an insult to the true blues legends. No, the only good blues song the beatles did is "yer blues" which, oh my god is on the white album. which is what? that's right a late album.

    Name one old song which is better than anything post rubber soul (leaving out the horrific "revolution 9")

  7. if you've lost your inheritance

    and all you've left is common sense

    and you're not too picky about the crowd you keep

    or the matress where you sleep

    behind every window

    behind every door

    the apple is gone

    but there's always the core

    and the seeds will sprout up right through the floor

    down there in the reeperbahn
