Levis Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Thursday - Asobi Seksu (2006) One of those instances when you find a shoegaze-esque song has some rather poignant lyrics if you manage to make them out. On gentle ground I waited for you In drops of dew I wished that were you With heavy hands I reached out for you My skin soaking wet My eyes searched for you It seems you lost your way Youve let it all fall apart Nothings left here but you All you do is remind me Now that weve lost our way The rest can all fall apart All I see here is you All it does is remind me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 "Revolution" - Spacemen 3 (1989) I implore you to turn it up as loud as you can stand, and to keep on listening to the whole damned thing. Right to the end. Please. "Revolution" - Chumbawamba (1985) A dog stares into a gramophone trumpet Waits for his call to action Mute and obedient, standing to attention Look a little closer, the dog is a man Working on the factory floor as hard as he can The trumpet is a loudspeaker, fixed into the roof The man can hear His Master's Voice, and it always tells the truth The man obeys his master, and carries out his work And of course he is rewarded with promises and perks You see, they have an understanding and this is it: The man stands under his master Whilst his master has a *******. There's always been a pattern of struggle and defeat Never that cycle incomplete Never enough to tip the scales Too many people rotting in jails Or bloodied on the battlefields. The history books from every age Have the same words written on every page Always starting with 'Revolution' And ending with 'Capitulation' Always silenced by the truncheon Or bought out with concessions Always repetition... Repetition... repetition... repetition... "I'm the boss of the factory I'm in charge of the U.K.C. Shopfloor workers run and fetch As I sit around and smugly watch And the process makes me stinking rich" We're all links in the factory chain And the chain grows longer day by day And whilst we're apart, the process won't stop. Repetition... repetition... repetition... But we're kept apart by philosophies And moral stances and policies We'll be stuck in our own little ghettos forever 'Til we start to work together Together... Together... Together... Together in the open or together in our little heaven? Fighting for total change, or working for concessions? Do we take what is ours, or ask that it be given? Are we stealing it together, or asking for permission? Even though we disagree, we share a common enemy Our methods may not be the same But together we can break the chain Different aims, different means, with common ground in between Don't sit back, it's time to act This life is ours, let's snatch it back Even though we disagree we share a common enemy Our methods may not be the same But together we can break the chain Different aims, different means, with common ground in between Don't sit back, it's time to act This life is ours, let's snatch it back The time has come to make a choice Stop taking orders from His Master's Voice!

You've got to be kidding. You should see what happens when an errant "The" sneaks in. As in The Ramones. Three years down the road, and he's almost got me broken of that.
