Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
All radio is dead
All radio is dead
All radio is dead
All radio is dead, dead, dead
Hey kid, who you lookin' at?
Why you standin' all up in my face like that, uh?
You ain't never seen a baseball bat?
A maniac knockin' on your baseball cap?
You better step about ten paces back
Or you'll be layin' where your shoelace is at
Go do what your momma told you
And don't be actin' like a punk, thinkin' you're a soldier
I see you got yourself a cell phone
I got a number you can dial, son, make it 9-1-1
Tell them "Stop at Hef's house on the way", kid
"Pick up some playmates but only if they're naked"
Don't know how y'all do in y'all's city
But 'round here we're gettin' down to the nitty gritty
And I hate to put you out like that
But you've been burnin' like a fire with a mouth like that
Take me back to yesterday
Rollin' dice and getting laid
Everything was a-okay, oh-oh-oh-oh
But now and then, a cloud rolls in
Rains on my parade and then
Talkin' this and that again, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Let's break it down for a minute
And roll it on up in third gear for a minute
I got the 21's rubbin' on my Benz, and
I got girlies in the back seat rubbin' on my friends, and
I don't really give a fuck about
What these player-hatin' pussies give a fuck about
'Cause I'm a night ranger, never been a stranger
My two-way pager is lookin' for some danger
Zoolander, hit you with the magnum
Everybody get your groove on, if you have one
And if you ain't got it, then admit it
It's Limp Bizkit, time for you to get it
All around the world in this 45 Prevost
Everywhere that we go we watch it on the TiVo
And now you're layin' in the bed you made
Drinkin' Haterade, think about it
Take me back to yesterday
Rollin' dice and getting laid
Everything was a-okay, oh-oh-oh-oh
But now and then, a cloud rolls in
Rains on my parade and then
Talkin' this and that again, go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Leave, thinkin' that you're all that and then some?
I've got news for you (all radio is dead)
So you're thinkin' that you're all that and then some?
Man, I got news for you (all radio is dead)
Radio is de-dead
Radio is dead
Let me guess, you ain't that impressed
Mr. Halitosis of the breath
Livin' lifestyles of the wish-you-would
From the back isles of the thrifty-good
See, I got room to talk, kid
I've been layin' this track since North Cack-a-lack
And the very first day that you fell out the sack
I was in some phat laces, spinnin' on my back
Let me think, let me roll, let me ride, let me
Put some funk in the trunk with a vibe and a
Memory that can ease your pain like a
Melody from Kurt Cobain 'cause ya
Never know when it's all gonna end and ya
Never know when you'll call on a friend
So you better take a step to prepare yourself
'Cause the way you're livin' now ain't good for your health
Thinkin' that you're all that and then some?
I've got news for you (all radio is dead)
So you're thinkin' that you're all that and then some?
Man, I got news for you (all radio is dead)
Thinkin' that you're all that and then some?
I've got news for you (all radio is dead)

Battle Royale
Word Alive, The
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
actually this is a good song zakkwyldebls (more the sound of it than the lyrics though)
This Song Is BAD ASS
hahaha, co-sign. It's so catchy.
I think the Bizkits should stop writing songs as they were ''rough guys'' and that sort of bullshit. They are just major label sellout posers.
Hey, this song isn't too bad. I actually quite like it. Oh and I was sad to see that who ever typed up these lyrics wrote "Kirk Kobain", It's Kurt Cobain.
(listen up)
I take this shit everyday Nothing you fuckin say Over again It doesn't stop I'm just a rebellion One in a million I take the control I'll play this role I take my gun Put an end to it all This is your fall
I will show you I will show you your mistakes
It's not that great It brings us down Motherfucker, are you fuckin blind? Your gonna drive it into the ground Your gonna knock us all down
Gud song. Not the best album in world but over critized by many.
Memory that can ease your pain Like a melody from Kurk cobain
Nice Line when corrected obviously
The idea is good, but I gotta admit the lyrics could be better. I think the lyrics talk about someone talking with a little kid that reminds him of his younger days and he's trying to teach him about life and how to become a better person.
thats the meaning royalavatar.. its like fred durst own reflection about his childhood and the way how the kids behave in the actuality
sic of limp bizkit haters or fred durst haters yea i know loads ppl think hes a prick but i dont care music is music and i fuckin love it limp bizkit is da SHIT fuckin amazing dis song one of the best by limp IMO
