Matteah Baim – River Lyrics 14 years ago
These are the correct lyrics, as heard much clearer on the Luxury Wafers Sessions performance:


I gave you an earring that wasn't yours
I'm not the lady of your thoughts
And you're not the penny for mine
You're not

Say goodbye, river
And I say goodbye to winter
Winter and river

Alone with whisky
Mistakes and men
We'll be together
We can get out of here
Maybe

Say goodbye, river
And I say goodbye to winter
Winter and river

Rancid – The Highway Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Night clubs and one night stands
Play a show then I'm off again
This is my life living on the highway
It's all I've ever done, all I've ever known
Just wanna play one more show
Make some music with my friends

I am working class culture
Seen the bleak side of the American experience
Scatter in the streets and show me what you got
This is no set of ideas, this is flesh and blood

Opinions are hard to put in prison
I tell the truth that won't be told
Uprising and rebellion
Social change with flesh and blood

Rancid – Locomotive Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Locomotive won't stop
Locomotive ain't ever gonna quit
Locomotive made of iron and steel
Locomotive I am you

From the East Bay garage to the radio dial
We've been noted for our combative style
You never give up with no chance to win
We know who you are and we've been where you've been

The wall street bailout is crooked and stacked
The burdens gonna end up on the workin' man's back
I know times are changing and there's a new sound
I'm glad you all made it, it's good to have you around

Rancid – You Want It, You Got It Lyrics 16 years ago
Lyrics straight from the booklet:


You want it, we got it
This is the place where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kickin' up a riot, won't you all sing along

Can't tell you where I was goin'
So tired, it was showin'
Like the wind I'm blowin'
Every town, man, I'm known in

Some live a life of indecision
Strung out in the petty schisms
I heard GBH, I made a decision
Punk rock is my religion

I sit back and I think it's funny
You were so worried about the money
Cloudy days are lookin' sunny
So why don't you come and stick with me honey

To all out friends
By this I swear

Rancid – Liberty And Freedom Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics from the booklet:


Out in the open, they ain't gonna hide
Police state upon us, prepare to collide

They're gonna keep you down, step on your neck, can't move no more
The weapon of their choosing is censorship and war
And I can see the line up now, everyone is just partisan
You see one side claims victory but it's just a zero sum

Liberty and freedom in quotations spray painted on the wall
Verbalized explosion
We will come back some day

If your ideas are suspect now your in contempt
Report to the committee, no one is exempt
And the Zealots and crusaders, they can't justify
With threats and intimidation designed to terrify

Rancid – Dominoes Fall Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Hey ho, let the bombs blow
Let the dominoes fall, I ain't got control

No control of destiny
Wake me up to reality
I can just see anarchy
And there ain't no tellin' who's in charge here

Dead men they tell no tales
Satan finally broke out of hell
And everybody's got something to sell
'Cause there ain't no good that I can see there

People goin' crazy situation code red
And the whole world's out of control
The walls and the fences are being torn down
And the bodies of the murdered are getting cold
Wild dogs going mad smell the blood of their own kill
The weakest of the pack
Nothing to the way that it seems around here
Very clear it's a very deadly trap

Rancid – Lulu Lyrics 16 years ago
Lyrics from the official booklet:


Lulu
Aaa
Lulu
Aaa

When the middle class breaks up
The working class better wake up
When America was dreamin'
Some thief's stole our country
Lulu stands by her family
With harmony and history
There's two kinds of stories
Either comedy or tragedy

Lulu works all day long
She goes nine to five just to stay alive
She'll do anything just to walk the line
There ain't no time to wine and dine
War time now in the USA
And her husband goes far away
Afghanistan to Iraq
Her husband now ain't comin' back

America the beautiful, that's what the sign says
I welcome every single one 'cause I want them all to stay
And I'll travel till my very last day
To the New York harbor to the San Francisco Bay

Rancid – Skull City Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics from the booklet:


She's my go go baby
She's my honkey tonk girl
She dances on my table
She dances on a pole

Some cities born
Some cities burn
Some cities die
Some cities learn
Some cities take the worst of the turn
And if it ain't your business then it's not your concern

Brick buildings, broken windows, smoke stacks
Tell me something's broken and there's blood on the tracks
And if you see the train comin' you're gonna relax
So tell me the facts, ma'am, only the facts

Stand down, what you gonna do?
She's a wild one, I'm a wild one too

Midnight and I'm rollin' on nobody sees me comin' home
And out here man a lot of things can go wrong
Shhh, listen to my song
The morgue is busy day after day
Stick it on the line and throw it away
And if you see it comin' on then you got it made
And the grave diggers laugh as they rot and decay

Rancid – The Bravest Kids Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


The teleprompter is read by the telegenic dead
And it goes out across the nation
There ain't no war information

The bravest kids I know are the ones that gotta go fighting over there

All channels pre-emptied
Another socialite is gonna get arrested
Pop culture transition takin' over my television

Rancid – Civilian Ways Lyrics 16 years ago
The lyrics taken from the official booklet:


I hold the cold steel of my rifle as I dream of foreign lands
And I promise myself I will cherish every moment I can
But there's ghosts that follow me around everywhere I am
When I say goodbye I try to be strong
Now I'm going back to the US where I belong
I ain't never alone, the war seems to follow me home
No longer an active soldier when I walk down the street
Now I'm shakin' hands with everyone that I meet
And I watch everyone and wondering what they see

Civilian ways are now what's foreign to me
I came off a long tour, I left this place in two o three
May we never forget the sacrifices my friends made for me

I live in Marysville out on the country line
And my brother and my mother both visit me all the time
And visions of you are always running right through my mind
We always talk about what we're gonna do when the war is won
We're gonna fix up them old cars and ride them into the sun
When I heard you're no longer with us man I was done

Rancid – I Ain't Worried Lyrics 16 years ago
Lyrics taken straight from the booklet:


I ain't worried about a goddamn thing
I hear them talkin', I ain't listening

How many times did you tell me I was wrong
But I didn't listen to you and I only stayed strong
In a world where people don't hang on too long
I belong, prove me wrong

Out come the wolves in the lunar light
Fight or flight, you're wrong I'm right
Talk to me straight man but be polite
You hear my scream 'cause this wolf bites

I'm Matt Freeman and I'm comin' in quick
I got a '64 Merc and a clutch that won't slip
I don't give a god damn what they say
I'm born and raised in the East Bay

I take chances that most won't take
I get knocked down, I won't break
Get it clear and make no mistake
This town's filled with the rattle snakes

Black, brown, white, we're all punk rock
We're the kings of our low income block
Blown out speakers, skinheads, mohawk
When we all get together ya the music won't stop

Rancid – Disconnected Lyrics 16 years ago
Here are the correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Where's my girl, where has she gone?
She once was beautiful and innocent
I can't believe in what she says
I look at her and she looked the other way

Disconnected from feeling alright
Disconnected and it ain't black and white
Disconnected there's a sword through the dove
Disconnected from the country I love

I remember you when you were young and strong
In your summer dress and your legs so long
My memories are only for me
I prefer them to reality

You think it was over but you better think again
Neither grace nor sweetness just malicious intent
It's you and me baby so we better watch our back
'Cause if we are standing together we ain't never gonna crack

And we took the greyhound into the night
With the city on the left and the country on the right
I knew when I saw you, I read it in your eyes
I heard your voice break when you were trying not to die

Rancid – Last One to Die Lyrics 16 years ago
Here are the correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Everybody said we gotta take a chance
And tell them what the hell went wrong
We only listened to the words that we sang
Now a million are singing along

We got it right, you got it wrong, we're still around
Last one to die
We're going up, you're going down, we're still around

The ones that have counted us out
Regret that they picked a fight
We sit on the top of the world
And we prove it here every night

Through the storms and the gigs and good and the bad, there ain't no doubt
We knew from the very first show what it was all about

submissions
Rancid – This Place Lyrics 16 years ago
Here are the correct lyrics straight from the lyrics booklet:


This place is a tale of terror
This place is a ghost town now
This place has lost it's people
This place has lost it's charm

The coals on the fire ain't burning no more in the lake shore foundries
The workers misled by corporations that know no boundries

The land of liberty has been betrayed by the monster corporations
The monster won't stop till it lays waste to everything

Rancid – New Orleans Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics straight from the booklet:


Well I went south with a case of survival
To amend my heart that's paper thin
You see I felt her words and her images filed
I'm gonna carry my heart to New Orleans

I have no home to go so I wander awhile
From coast to coast, from sin to sin
From the coldest shores to the warmest islands
Been around the world back to New Orleans

Well she's got pride like a million lions
She's got a scar on her velvet face
She's got a smile like a newborn child
She's gotta walk a Stoic grace

I never slept that night until my arrival
I romanticized a long embrace
You see I lost my tongue and burned my bible
But I made it back home to New Orleans

Well I held my break and I swam for miles
When all was lost and hell took place
You see it rained all night and the city she flooded
It rained all night in New Orleans

Rancid – East Bay Night Lyrics 16 years ago
Another East Bay night

When the sun goes down and the night come around and the fog come a rollin' in
When you cast a line to go dance one time and an old friend invites you in
Hear a punk rock song and we sing along, everything gonna be alright

Well Gramma stands on the very same land on the old house up on the hill
You can see the San Francisco Bay, Alcatraz, Albany landfill
And reminisce on the front porch under a yellow light

Earthquakes shake and fires take from this view I've seen it all
I've tasted smoke as the hills burned
I heard the freeway fall
When there's nothin' to say just look into the bay
You know some things they just feel right

Rancid – Up To No Good Lyrics 16 years ago
Here are the lyrics straight from the booklet:


No one is safe here, we're all in danger
Through the corridor I see a stranger
Robbin' and ransackin', I see him walkin'
Lock your doors now, I hear him knockin'

Up to no good like a spark on a wire or a splinter in wood
Best intentions get misunderstood but that motherfucker is up to no good

Quick like a snake, he's good at stealing
He'll even steal the plaster off the ceiling
Cloaked in darkness, I see him standin'
Making moves in the night, he's a ghost man

Criminals, I understand them
Watch your back 'cause we'll come at random
Born to lose and you end up in the system
He's our friend, now we're gonna miss him

Interpol – Next Exit Lyrics 16 years ago
You've got some parts wrong. Here are lyrics taken from the official website:


We ain't going to the town
We're going to the city
Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart

Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart
To be a part of

No end

But we've come so baby

Make it with me in preperation for tonight
We've got so much to leave
But not what makes this right
You've been building up steam
Inginited by this fight
So do this thing with me
Instead of tying on a tight one tonight

With no end
With no end
With no end
And we're gone
We ain't going to the town
We're going to the city
Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart
To be a part of
Again

Gazette – Leech Lyrics 17 years ago
The first line is correct.

And chatterer, the lyrics do include what is sung on the outro, but it's sung like this...

"Can you hear counting--song of pain BABYYYY!"
"You are the same as a leech--which sucks blood to live! You are the same as a leech--which sucks blood to (fuck off!) live!"

And no, that doesn't mean the line is "sucks blood to fuck off" it's just what Ruki shouts at the end.
