Oingo Boingo – No One Lives Forever Lyrics	17 years ago
The lyrics to this one, I have to admit, are really, really hokey. Although the chorus, i suppose, is pretty cool.

Warren Zevon – My Shit's Fucked Up Lyrics	17 years ago
Honestly, this song sounds like he was trying to write a song and just couldn't fucking get it, and so he wrote about that instead. It's still brilliant, but that's just what it sounds like to me.

Otis Redding – (Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay Lyrics	17 years ago
This is an incredible song - so good, in fact, that I can forgive the use of 'Frisco' for san francisco.

Oingo Boingo – Fool's Paradise Lyrics	17 years ago
Incredible song. It's about reaching the goal you've sought and finding, inevitably, that it doesn't live up to your expectations. There is no paradise, it is all just a fool's paradise.

Oingo Boingo – Only A Lad Lyrics	17 years ago
I'm not sure how seriously we should take this song. I mean, it's on the same album as "Capitalism" and, pushing the same thing to an even greater extent, "Little Girls". Part of me wants to say that this song is, like "Capitalism", "serious satire." But maybe it is what Danny Elfman really thinks.

Oingo Boingo – Grey Matter Lyrics	17 years ago
It IS brilliant. It seems like a pretty impassioned plea for people to think for themselves and it reminds me a lot of "freedom of choice" by Devo.

God, this is a good song. I think it's about maturity, but I'm not sure.
