Mos Def – Rock N Roll Lyrics | 12 years ago |
The part where he rocks out is cool, but the lyrics are somewhat hypocritical. He criticizes white musicians for stealing from black musicians and then samples Red Hot Chili Peppers on the same album. |

Alkaline Trio – Wash Away Lyrics | 15 years ago |
Alkaline Trio did a kickass cover of this song, and they picked one of TSOL's more obscure songs, which is also admirable. |

^lol just noticed that now |
Sublime – Hope Lyrics | 15 years ago |
this is a great cover, i prefer the descendents' version because i was a descendents fan way before i got into sublime. also i wish sublime worked some ska into this song, kinda like how the suicide machines made a minor threat song ska-punk. |
Refused – Rather Be Dead Lyrics | 15 years ago |
Refused started as hardcore punk. And they did not pioneer hardcore, the genre existed years before they formed. That being said, Refused were a great band. |
Screeching Weasel – I Hate Led Zeppelin Lyrics | 15 years ago |
And you're a moron for not being able to spell Screeching Weasel. Led Zeppelin was a great band, but this song still makes me chuckle when I hear it. |
Black Flag – Thirsty and Miserable Lyrics | 16 years ago |
Why are some of the Black Flag lyrics in caps lock? Anyway this song is critcizing people who drink too much, kind of like Six Pack. |
Black Flag – Spray Paint Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"Ummm... yeah, but aren't all punk songs? :) haha... that's the beauty of it. " Yeah, I know. I wasn't criticizing the song, just responding to your question of why there weren't any comments. |
Screeching Weasel – Science Of Myth Lyrics | 16 years ago |
Ben Weasel is great, this is the best song on My Brain Hurts. |
Face to Face – Disconnected Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I'm not sure if this song quotes the Descendents song "Hope" on purpose or not, but the lines "You don't know what you want/It may take you years to find out" are almost completely the same as part of that song. |
Catch 22 – Kristina She Don't Know I Exist Lyrics | 16 years ago |

The Adolescents – No Way Lyrics | 16 years ago |
Yeah it's about laziness, the lyrics are pretty straightforward. |
Descendents – I'm Not A Loser Lyrics | 16 years ago |
The lyrics to this song are cool, aside from the homophobia near the end. I agree with AppleShampoo, the music sounds angry and fits well with the lyrics. |
The Notorious B.I.G. – Me And My Bitch Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"And I admit, when the time is right, the wine is right I treat you right, you talk slick, I beat you right" lol Biggie was a real romantic guy. |
Public Enemy – She Watch Channel Zero?! Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I agree with what everyone else has said about too much T.V. "And who else but PE have had the balls to even pick this up" Black Flag, The Misfits, and maybe Bad Religion have all criticized T.V. in their lyrics before. |
Bad Religion – Part II (The Numbers Game) Lyrics | 16 years ago |

It's from Plastic Surgery Disasters. Gotta love that weird kazoo sound in the chorus. |
Bad Religion – Modern Man Lyrics | 16 years ago |
What does Greg say in the beginning of the song? It sounds like "one with attitude". |
Minor Threat – In My Eyes Lyrics | 16 years ago |
It's completely possible to love Minor Threat without loving the straight edge movement. Most of the first verse is about straight edge, but the song in general is about seeing people for what they really are. |
Rise Against – Fix Me (Black Flag cover) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I've heard another band cover this song well, but I can't remember the name of it. I love Black Flag and I like Rise Against, so I wanna see what this sounds like. |
Ramones – Blitzkrieg Bop Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"I think it's super funny how people are all 'Ramones aren't even punk, listen to Good Charlotte and Limp Biskit'" Who the fuck said that? |
T.S.O.L. – The Triangle Lyrics | 16 years ago |
It sounds like the narrator is a secret agent who wants to quit his job after killing so many people, but his employers won't let that happen. |
Atreyu – Epic (Faith No More cover) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I'm not particularly grateful for this song influencing a bunch of metal/rock and rap crossovers but it is a cool song. The people insulting Faith No More and saying Atreyu is better are completely out of their minds. |
Ramones – Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I heard it was about kids they knew who sniffed glue. |
Sonic Youth – Teenage Riot Lyrics | 16 years ago |
What the hell? Sonic Youth and Minor Threat are both awesome, but why is there an emo debate here of all places? Anyways, this song seems to be about teenagers being idiots. |
The Smiths – Meat Is Murder Lyrics | 16 years ago |
That was exactly what I was thinking Trixtc. You explained it a lot better than I could. |
Bad Religion – Heroes and Martyrs Lyrics | 16 years ago |
Is it just me or does Greg sound like he's rapping during the verses? |
Avril Lavigne – Hot Lyrics | 16 years ago |
In the music video she's obviously a vampire cross-breeded with the Joker from Batman. This just sounds like a wannabe Britney Spears song. |
Avril Lavigne – Girlfriend Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I thought maybe this was just one song where she just went way too poppy and/or insane, then I saw the music video for Hot... |
The Smiths – Meat Is Murder Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"The difference between humans consuming other animals and lions or other wild animals consuming animals is that lions don't go to the grocery store and pick up a prepackaged sirloin and and chicken nuggets for the cubs, idiots. When wild animals hunt, the prey at least has the opportunity to a)defend itself b) escape c) had the chance to live a normal natural life prior to the killing." You make good points here. "If cutting off the snout of a pig and rubbing the wound in salt, raping cows with broomsticks, or conditioning people to have no emotional connection to these creatures at all so they cure their slaughterhouse boredom by completely tourturing the animal is what you're into...then by all means, eat up." Slaughterhouse workers rape animals with broomsticks? What the hell are you talking about? "Not to mention the statistics that show slaughterhouse workers have more of a tendency to be abusive in the home. I know I personal love to contribute to domestic violence, dont you?" You have strange logic. If barbers had homicidal tendencies, would that mean you support murder every time you get a haircut? Just because someone eats meat, doesn't mean they're supporting domestic abuse. Way to stereotype people you don't agree with. "I'd love to see one of you "VEGETARIANS ARE RETARDS" neandertals walk up to a cow in a non fenced area, with nothing but your nails and teeth, and kill a cow to eat...then say that our flat NAILS and FRUIT CUTTING INCISSORS are meant for tearing appart flesh, and that you can actually bring yourself to do it. Then I will respect your meat eating habits. Until then, that colon cancer should be a lot of fun, and so will your extra salty seimen. Your rolls and chubby children will thank you." Judging from the comments on this song, there are far more people with a "MEAT EATERS ARE RETARDS" attitude than a "VEGETARIANS ARE RETARDS" attitude. If we only did things our bodies were naturally able to do instead of using tools, we wouldn't be growing trees or using computers. The health problems you described won't be a problem if you don't eat too much meat, cook it properly, and exercise. |
Suicidal Tendencies – Institutionalized Lyrics | 16 years ago |
This song is hilarious, and also very cool musically. |
Ramones – Beat on the Brat Lyrics | 16 years ago |
It's about brats in general, not just rich ones. |
The Smiths – Meat Is Murder Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"My point, and perhaps it wasn’t clear enough, was that since the average person - in virtue of their support for the animal industry - is on a daily basis responsible for those sorts of atrocities, to be morally up to scratch by these standards doesn't require very much at all. As I tried my best to explain, by these parameters I could torture you and still be morally better than you." Are you saying that willingly eating meat automatically makes you a jackass? That view is as intolerant as the people who try to shove religious beliefs down your throat. If you were to torture me, you wouldn't be on higher moral ground than a meat-eating police officer arresting you for it. The jury wouldn't decide that they have no right to judge you, a vegetarian and a torturer, because they like steaks. If your friends help you when you need them the most and take a bullet for you, are you going to hate them because they eat meat, despite all they've done for you? Besides, Hitler was a vegetarian, so being a vegetarian doesn't automatically make you ethically superior to the average meat eater. "I'm not talking about who CAN be responsible for terror, I'm talking about who IS. Supporters of the animal industry. And maybe sometimes PETA too I guess, but those fuckers deserve it and it's all an ethically justifiable means to an end. Thinking people recognise that." Honestly, I don't know too much about PETA, so I can't really say whether or not their actions are justified. From what I've heard, they encourage violence to get their points across, which would make them no better than the people they campaign against." "Do you think that the lives of all organisms deserve the same moral consideration? Do you eat people then? Surely then a human life is worthy only of the same concern as the bacteria that your body kills every second you're alive. No? Maybe you should rethink your position then. Maybe the real issue here is of suffering (The animal industry causes animals to suffer horrifically, that's cause for my veganism as I see it). Now don't try to give me this retarded "uuh well maybe plants feel pain, we don't know for sure, we're not plants" bullshit because I've heard it before and it's stupid as all fuck. There has never been, and never will be, a single shred of scientific evidence that could conceivably suggest to anyone, no matter how American, that a plant has ever felt pain, suffered, or experienced consciousness. Stack this up against the CERTAINTY that animals, according in a unanimous fashion amongst experts that ought to know, from the moment they're born or captured into the animal industry, suffer intensely and incessantly until the day they're slaughtered, which, due to the stupid-as-fuck capitalist system (not that I'm a communist) is usually in the most fucked up and primitive way possible." I value the lives of my friends and family above the lives of every other living thing. Maybe that's selfish, but it's not helpful to pity suffering living things you don't know and can't personally help. "that's obviously not the sense in which he means "reason". If someone kills someone because they slept with their wife, that's a reason, but it's still murder. Morrissey means no natural reason, like in terms of a cause of death, like let's say kidney failure for instance." If that's what he meant, that's what he should have said. He's generalizing every incident of killing an animal for food as cold, heartless, and senseless murder, which is not the case. "That's because bears have a tendency not to take criticism on board. They're bears. Doesn't it seem stupid to you to model our behaviour on that of other, more intellectually primitive, species? By that logic we could justify eating out partners after sex, because the praying mantis does it." My point wasn't that we should base our behavior on other animals. My point was that since human being are naturally omnivores, eating meat is natural. |
The Smiths – Meat Is Murder Lyrics | 16 years ago |
"Hitler did not directly kill the Jews, (or anyone else who ticked him off) yet we think of him as a murderer." Fair enough, although I still think killing animals for food is justified. "It is nicer, because: 1. the hunted animal in question lived out in the wild, rather than in some barn so filled with it's brothers and sisters it cannot turn around. 2. the hunter is out there chasing them, risking its life, not at the grocery store buying a side of beef. So it is kinder to both the hunter and the hunted." I see your point about the hunted, but it doesn't sound any nicer for the hunter. Although the slaughterhouses I've heard about seem awful, it's not enought to convince me to stop eating meat. "For some animals, such as members of the cat family, eating meat is necessary. We as humans are omnivores, which means we can eat whatever we damn well please. (as long as it's edible) Just because something was natural, to cavemen maybe, doesn't mean we have to do it, if it causes the suffering of other creatures." Bears are omnivores too, but no one criticizes them when they eat meat. In order to be a vegetarian, you have to kill plants, which doesn't seem any more ethical than killing animals. |
The Smiths – Meat Is Murder Lyrics | 16 years ago |
This song irritates me. "a death for no reason and death for no reason is MURDER" Killing animals for food counts as a reason. "and the flesh you so fancifully fry is not succulent, tasty or nice" Yes it is. "and the calf that you carve with a smile is MURDER and the turkey you festively slice is MURDER" If you didn't kill the animals yourself, it's not murder. "it's not "natural", "normal" or kind" Eating meat is natural and normal. lycan13 - Hunting and chasing down an animal for food doesn't sound any nicer than raising an animal and eventually killing it for food. |
