Lyrics you've heard recently and like
Don't have to be the greatest lyrics in the world or the most poignent or anything; just thought a thread to put down any lyrics you catch and think are cool would be interesting.
At the moment the ones I like the most are from a bloke called Jamie T and the song's called Salvador. Best bit is probably:
"Well it's a bang-bang anglo saxons at the disco atishoo all fall down Hound-dogs rowl on the prowl for the next young girl who told her daddy "Im gonna round Gemma's and study".
Hard to get without hearing it in context but I just really like it. The whole song rules basically.
Feel free to contribute...

Aw, man...I really need to get my music head on again. It seems with age, I've let things slip. I just don't seem to have time to chill and listen to music anymore.

Without turning this thread into a Monkey's appreciation love-in...Saw 'em on Gonzo late last night...how can they be so articulate song-wise, but come across so incoherently?!
There's these 2 bouncers, one of 'em's all reet, the other one's a scary 'un, his way or no way, totalitarian...

Ritz to the rubble is lyrically brilliant; but then the whole damn album is.
"But his bird thinks he's amazing so all that's left is the proof that love's not only blind but deaf, He's talks of San Francisco he's form he from Hunters Bar, I don't quite know the distance but I'm sure that's far, yeah I'm sure that's pretty far, Yeah I'd love to tell you all my problem, Yer not from New York City yer from Rotherham"
Genius.

Re: Lyrics you've heard recently and like
I don't seem to have time to take lyrics in any more, which is probably why I'm finding those apes from the North Pole so irritating right now. They're never off the radio, and are fast becoming as annoying as The Darkness.

Re: Lyrics you've heard recently and like
I quite like in that new Morrisey song,
"As I live and breathe, you have killed me..."
just an inkling of classic Mozza.
Also PlantLife
"I wrote this song when I was drunk, but I meant every last word that I said".
Neither too profound but in the rhythm of the song they sound good.

Re: Lyrics you've heard recently and like
I just listened to the Shirehorses album recently for the first time in years, and some of that is quality.
"Mark: Many miles on the clock and I'm ready to ROCK! How's it looking Lard?
Lard: We're on the A37 and we're fast approaching Devon, shall we stop off for a jar?
Mark: God I wish I'd never met this Lardy feckless get, just take me home"
"He's not in the kitchen, He's not in the khazi,
He's not in the morning room. Joe's fucked off!
He's not in the gard-on, or in the bedroom with a hard-on,
Ooh! I beg your pard-on, Joe's fucked off!"
"Now what you winking at, you know I'm not like that,
Keep yer mind on cutting grass, and off my hairy ass,
You're an ugly bleeder, but oi needs yer, and oi loves yer just the same!"

Re: Lyrics you've heard recently and like
Johnny Cash, When The Man Comes Around
"Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still. Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still. Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still. Listen to the words long written down, When the man comes around."
A quality song by a great artist from his last album, American IV: The Man Comes Around. An apocalyptic tale that stands up against anything from the last few years. One of my absolute favourite songs of recent times.
