"Tahdon olla juovuksissa aina, sekä maanantaina, tiistaina keskivikkona ja torstaina (In english: I want to be drunk always, on monday, tuesday, wensday and thursday)"
-Eppu Normaali, Baarikänrpänen

 

I like that "United we stand, divided we fall" thingie I heard in several songs. (my favourite is Boys on the Docks - Dropkick Murphys)

 

Eminems songs really kick ass all the lines from them are good but i suppose the best is Slim's first choice!

 

Counting Crows "A Long December"

Old 97's "Barrier Reef"

They Might Be Giants "Actual Size"

Robert Earl Keen "No Kinda Dancer"

John Mellencamp: "Jack and Diane"

"... Oh yeah, life goes on. Long after the thrill of living is gone..."

Indigo Girls: "Power of Two"

"... So we're okay. We're fine. Baby I'm here to stop your crying. Chase all the ghosts from your head, I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed. Smarter than the tricks played on your heart. Look at them together then we'll take them apart. Adding up the total of a love that's true. Multiply life by the power of two..."

Kenny Rankin/Stephen Bishop: "On and On"

"...Lonesome Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight. Saw his woman kiss another man. So he takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky. Puts on Sinatra then he starts to cry. On and on..."

James Ingram: "One Hundred Ways"

"Compliment what she does. Send her roses just because. If its violins she loves, let them play. Dedicate her fav'rite song, and hold her closer all night long. Love her TODAY. Find one hundred ways..."

Don Mclean: "American Pie"

"... I met a girl who sang the blues, and I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away. And I went down to the sacred store where I heard the music years before. But the man there said the music wouldn't play. And in the streets, the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed. But not a word was spoken. the church bells all were broken. And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost... they took the last train for the coast, the day the music died. And they were singin'..."

Lobo: "Don't Expect Me to Be your Friend"

"...I love you too much too ever start liking you. so don't expect me to be your friend..."

... among others. I'd add to this if anything else pops up in my head.

 

I live my dreams of the golden beach
Where I used to spend my days
Out here on this space debris
I’m riding on the waves

Meatloaf-life is a lemon and I want my money back
Every time I turn it on I burn it up and burn it out
Alice Cooper-feed my frankenstein
greasy fingers on your greasy spine
Aerosmith-walk this way
Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
and your feet flyin up in the air
I sing "Hey diddle diddle"
with your kitty in the middle of the swing
like you didn't care
took a big chance at the high school dance
with a missy who was ready to play
was a me she was foolin'
'cause she knew what she was doin'
and I know'd love was here to stay
when she told me to
Meatloaf (again)-Paradise by the dashboard light
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god
And on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore I would love you to the end of time

So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
So I can end my time with you
Black Sabbath-paranoid
make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry

Those are just a small fraction of goodness

Why are most quotes in here from rocksongs I like that.... a reward for rock-music, one of the few music types where the writers care about the lyrics.

Dream Theater - The Spirit Carries On.

I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
That was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my sould will transcend
If I die tomorrow
I'll be allright
Because I believe
That after I'm gone
The spirit carries on.

Move on, be brave
don't weep at my grave
Beacause I'm no longer here.
But please never let
Your memories of me disappear

Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
has helped me to find
the meaning in my life again.
