song lyrics for you: I² members

[Kosmonaut]

Not listened to PJ for a few years, i may dig it out.

Some pop music from Jarvis Cocker ( better live than on the record), but still...

Big Julie

She’s by herself again in the quiet, secret night. Below the neighbour’s window – hands in pockets, head on one side. And the radio plays an unknown song that has nothing at all to do with God. But it’s miles away from this sad town & the stupid kids who get her down. Just wait until Big Julie rules the world. Big Julie rules the world.

Well, the radio still plays: floating beyond time – like the greatest people in the world all springing up & feeling fine. And it’s far away from these sweaty lads who say that boys cannot be slags. And if it’s not them then it’s their dads. Like the guy who felt her up in class. And the Sunday-School teacher who said she had beautiful breasts & the local radio DJ who is so obviously obsessed. Yeah, form an orderly queue when Big Julie rules the world. Big Julie rules the world.

Yeah, go & chase your dreams – but if your dreams are not your own then wouldn’t it be better just to work things out at home? And she knows sex is just for dummies anyway: something you do when you’ve run out of things to say. But this song will play until the light. It’s the sound of her trying to find something to like – the sound of her walking day & night. And this song may lead her far away but tonight it seems to light the way. And she can almost see the future shine. And everything’s in tune & everything’s in time. And it will play until the day Big Julie rules the world. Big Julie rules the world.

Those are good lyrics. 

These are less poignant, but are scarily easy to sing along to with a beefy 4/4 drum track and some soaring keyboard lines. 

Rotersand - Electronic World Transmission
get me get me a little closer
let me see the phantom view
take me right into the center
of the 911-news

get me get me my voyeur fetish
keep me shackled all day through
electronic world transmission
everything I see is true

give me give me observation
let me have the on-site feel
give me give me the true sensation
for I need a touch of real

show me show me what is happening
in the world beyond my door
and in time i'll be forgetting
what i have been living for

help me help me i'm too frightened
to fulfill my hardest task
will i ever find the answers
to the things i dare not ask

[Calandale]

For Those that Trespass against us


Tell me my life is about to begin
Tell me that I am a hero,
Promise me all of your violent dreams
Light up your body with anger.
Now, in this ugly world
it is time to destroy all this evil.
Now, when I give the word
get ready to fight for your freedom
Now -

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
We must strike at the lies
That have spread like disease through our minds.
Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest
And we'll spread out our kindness
To all who our love now deserve.
Some of you are going to die -
Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide.

I'll give you the names of those you must kill,
All must die with their children.
Carry their heads to the palace of old,
Hang them high, let the blood flow.
Now, in this ugly world
break all the chains around us,
Now, the crusade has begun
give us a land fit for heroes,
Now -

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
We must strike at the lies
That have spread like disease through our minds.
Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest
And we'll spread out our kindness
To all who our love now deserve.
Some of you are going to die -
Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide.

We are only wanting freedom
We are only wanting freedom
We are only wanting freedom
We are only wanting freedom ("Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom...")
We are only wanting freedom ("Things are getting out of control here today")
We are only wanting freedom ("OK men - fire over their heads!")
We are only wanting freedom

--- WE HAVE WON ---

Some of you are going to die,
Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide.

[Calandale]

Somewhere in the distance I hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
The lady 'cross the street she shuts out the night
There's a cast of thousands waiting as she turns out the light
But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, too late, too late
London boys are gazing as the girls go hand in hand
With a pocket full of innocence, their entrance is grand
And the Queen of the dream stands before them all
She stretches out her hand as the curtains start to fall
But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, it's too late
Too late
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
Oh yeah!
Standin' by the trapdoor aware of me and you
Are the actor and the clown their waiting for their cue
And there's a lady over there she's acting pretty cool
But when it comes to playing life she always plays the fool
But it's too late, too late, it's too late
Too late to love
Too late, it's too late, too late
Too late
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa ooh
It is all too late
Ooh whoa
It's too late
Ooh whoa ooh
Yes it is all too late
Yeah!
It's too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late
(whoah yeah)
Too late
(Oh yeah)
Too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late
(Too late)
Too late
(Too late)
Too late
(Too late for love)

[Tesla]

There's a place your mother goes when everybody else is soundly sleeping
Through the lights of beacon street
And if you listen you can hear her weeping,
She's weeping, cause the gentlemen are calling
And the snow is softly falling on her petticoats.
And she's standing in the harbour
And she's waiting for the sailors in the jolly boat.
See how they approach

With dirty hands and trousers torn they grapple 'til she's safe within their keeping
A gag is placed between her lips to keep her sorry tongue from any speaking, or screaming
And they row her out to packets where the sailor's sorry racket calls for maidenhead
And she's scarce above the gunwales when her clothes fall to a bundle and she's laid in bed on the upper deck

And so she goes from ship to ship, her ankles clasped, her arms so rudely pinioned
'Til at last she's satisfied the lot of the marina's teeming minions, and their opinions

And they tell her not to say a thing to cousin, kindred, kith or kin or she'll end up dead
And they throw her thirty dollars and return her to the harbour where she goes to bed, and this is how your fed

So be kind to your mother, though she may seem an awful bother, and the next time she tries to feed you collard greens,
Remember what she does when you're asleep

[Calandale]

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

[Calandale]

Here we stand
Worlds apart hearts broken in two...two...two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground I'm reaching for you...you...you

Feeling that it's gone
Can change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide love divides

(Chorus)
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our seperate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our seperate ways

Troubled times
Caught between confusion and pain...pain...pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain...in vain...in vain

If you must go I wish you love
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love
Miss you love

(Chorus)

Ohhhhh
Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you

If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you

I still love you, girl
I really love you, girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you

[Calandale]

Talk to me softly
There is something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin is changin' inside you
And don't you know


Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight


Give me a whisper
And give me a sign
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby


And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight


And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby


And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight

Damn I got that song stuck in my head now... oh well I suppose it could be worse. 

[Lucifer]

how awful for you, PI.  is it a Carpenters song, or something? 

[purposefulinsanity]

  Guns n roses 

[Lucifer]

axl rose maudlin on gin, by the sounds of it. 

[purposefulinsanity]

axl rose maudlin on gin, by the sounds of it. 

Or (unsuccessfully) attempting to not come across as a complete twat for a change?

[Lucifer]

er...

nope, sorry - that does not compute.

[duncvis]

Talking of not computing:

Tanzwut - Niemals ohne Dich

Ich hore Dein Lachen - da bleibe ich steh'n
Ich fuhl' Deinen Atem - doch ich kann niemanden seh'n
Ich spure Deine Hand - aber ich bin allein
Ich rieche Deinen Duft - und auch das kann nicht sein
Ganz deutlich vor mir - seh' ich Dein Gesicht
Ich will Dich umarmen - doch ich greife ins Nichts

Niemals ohne Dich
Niemals ohne Dich - wollt' ich sein
Niemals ohne Dich

Ich hor' Deine Stimme - ihren Widerhall
Ich kann sie nicht orten - sie ist uberall
Ich hab' eine Blume fur Dich gepfluckt
Ich wei? nicht, ob Du sie siehst, vielleicht sogar riechst
Ich fall' auf die Knie - ich bin so allein
Ich fang an zu weinen - so kalt ist der Stein

Niemals ohne Dich
Niemals ohne Dich - wollt' ich sein
Niemals ohne Dich

Ich hor Dein Lachen
Ich spur Deine Haut
Ich renne in die Nacht
Ich schrei' nach Dir
Verlier' den Verstand
Wie ein tollwutiges Tier

Niemals ohne Dich
Niemals ohne Dich - wollt' ich sein
Niemals ohne Dich

...and auto translated by google, uncorrected for hilarity


Dance Rage - Never without you

I hore your laughter - there I remain steh'n
I fuhl' your breath - nevertheless I cannot do anybody seh'n
I keep in track your hand - however I am alone
I smell your smell - and also that cannot be
Completely clearly before me - seh' I your face
I want to embrace you - nevertheless I reach into the nothing

Never without you
Never without you - wollt' I its
Never without you

I hor' your voice - their echo
I cannot locate it - she is uberall
I hab' a flower fur you gepfluckt
I wei? not, whether you see it, perhaps even it smells
I fall' on the knees - I am so alone
To cry I catch on - the stone is so cold

Never without you
Never without you - wollt' I its
Never without you

I hor your laughter
I trace your skin
I run into the night
I schrei' after you
Verlier' the understanding
Like a tollwutiges animal

Never without you
Never without you - wollt' I its
Never without you
