The Riot Before – You Rock, Rock Lyrics 16 years ago
This is the last part, including the missing lines:

Last night I dreamt of gasoline
And leaping off of everything
In the hopes that this mountain would move
From the air in my lungs
And today I woke desiring
To leave these metaphors and similes
And I would scream aloud
I'll take the world for all that it's worth
And I would mean every action I made
And live every word.

Latterman – Fear And Loathing On Long Island Lyrics 16 years ago
I'm not sure, but I always interpreted the lines about breaking the bottle and breaking the habit pretty literally. As in break the bottle (stop drinking) because it won't help the situation, and to break self destructive habits. No?

My Morning Jacket – Librarian Lyrics 17 years ago
i always thought the line was,
"'cause everything'd be great,
and everything'd be good,
IF everybody gave
like everybody could."
doesn't that make more sense?

The Gaslight Anthem – Once Upon a Time (Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise cover) Lyrics 17 years ago
Once upon a time, when I was in high school
I was in love with you, lady and you treated me so cool.
I was drivin' a Chevy '72, it had 4 on the floor, girl,
A hundred 20, it would do.

And I remember Marvin Gaye, singin',
What's goin’ on.

And there was a war, baby, somewhere across the sea
I don’t wanna go and fight, girl,
‘Cause you were really in love with me.
I remember Martin Luther King,
Lord he was the man, babe, that gave us all a dream.

And I remember Marvin Gaye, singin',
What's goin’ on.
I don't play with my love, oh.
And I remember Marvin Gaye, singin',
What's goin’ on.

They used to have sweet music in the park.
Lord, up at Monterey straight down to the ?.
You used to wear girl, them hot pants
And When you strolled down the hall,
All the boys wanted a chance.

And I remember Marvin Gaye, singin',
What's goin’ on.
I don't play with my love, oh.
I remember Otis Redding,
Sittin' at the Dock of the Bay -
But then he went away.
And I remember Sam Cooke ya'll,
Just Bring It On Home To Me,
From your love I can't be free.
I remember Elvis Presley, and them Blue Suede Shoes
Lord, they gave me the blues.
I remember Marvin Gaye, singin’, yeah...
Let's get it on.

that's as close as i could get.

The Avett Brothers – Tear Down the House Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is so beautiful.

"I remember crying over you,
And I don’t mean like a couple of tears and I’m blue.
I’m talking about collapsing and screaming at the moon,
But I’m a better man for having gone through it."

Real men cry.

The Gaslight Anthem – I'da Called You Woody, Joe Lyrics 17 years ago
i just guessed rico was the person who turned him onto the clash and joe. no? i think it makes sense.

i love this song! the music video is silly, i'm in love with gaslight anthem.

my favorite part is, "And I never got to tell him, so I just wrote it down/I wrapped a couple chords around it and I let it come out." i've always wanted to meet joe too, who wouldn't!?

Sex Pistols – My Way Lyrics 17 years ago
you guys are so silly.
of course sid vicious wasn't any good! but that, sadly, is what made him famous. he was a complete wreck that everyone loved watching. that was his allure.
saying he 'sucks' will do know good, considering he was supposed to suck.. just stating the obvious.
also, whoever called him a nazi is ridiculous - read something about the sex pistols or sid and you'll learn why they wore the swastika.

Park Ave. – Lachrymose Obsequious Vehement Elated Lyrics 17 years ago
This is for sure my favorite Park Ave. song. I couldn't relate more.
"But maybe I'd be better off if I just end this quickly/It is not romantic/I am just giving up and shutting down/I am just so sick of thinking my head is broken."
These lyrics also could not be more perfect. Love it.

Park Ave. – She Teaches Art? Lyrics 17 years ago
I agree; it's about an art teacher whose students don't give a shit and want her to know she doesn't "need" to be a teacher. It's kind of sad, actually.

The Felice Brothers – Your Belly In My Arms Lyrics 17 years ago
I'm pretty sure this song is about a man and his pregnant wife/girlfriend on a bus traveling somewhere. I always figured they were moving somewhere for the child - trying to start a new life.
Mmm, I love the Felice Brothers.

A. A. Bondy – American Hearts Lyrics 17 years ago
Don't you get low as hell/When the peace dove is felled/By men with the blackest of minds.
