Emelia  | 105 comments I bow to the Master Scott !

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments No Rest for the Wicked is a great song!

Allie woke up 8AM
Graduation day.
Got into a car,

Love Better than Ezra !!!

Emelia  | 105 comments This is so fun !

There's a destination a little up the road
From the habitations and the towns we know
A place we saw the lights turn low
Jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow
Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
Two turntables and a microphone
Bottles and cans and just clap your hands and just clap your hands

message 106: by Emelia (new)

Emelia  | 105 comments Last one...if ya get this I shall dub whomever the Czar of Music lol

I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older
Turn the switch and check the number
Leave it on when in bed I slumber
I hear the rhythms of the music
I buy the product and never use it
I hear the talking of the dj
Can't understand just what does he say?


message 107: by Emelia (new)

Emelia  | 105 comments I lied..this is the last one hahahaha

Without looking it up....and GO !!

Let's put our heads together, start a new country up,
Underneath the river bed we burned the river down.
This is where they walked, swam, hunted, danced and sang,
Take a picture here, take a souvenir

Ha, I'm psyched I pull Mexican Radio out of nowhere. I can still picture that video from the early MTV days.


message 112: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Kudos!


message 113: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Hangin' round downtown by myself
And I had so much time
To sit and think about myself
And then there she was
Like double cherry pie
Yeah there she was
Like disco superfly

This is the awesomeness you miss when you decide to organize your desk


message 116: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments It's never to late to join the party. We were just starting to make sangria.

Aren't we all Rick? :D Are you a fan of Marcy Playground?


message 117: by Margret, Caladan Brood Face (new)

Margret | 3168 comments Mod
Well I don’t practice Santeria, I ain’t got no crystal ball...

OH WAIT... you said sangria :P


message 118: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Yeah, Sublime sangria :)


message 119: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Make up your mind
Decide to walk with me
Around the lake tonight
Around the lake tonight
By my side
By my side

I'm not gonna lie
I'll not be a gentleman
Behind the boathouse
I'll show you my dark secret


message 120: by Rick (new)

Rick Newland | 21 comments We sure are!
I can't say that I am a fan of Marcy Playground because that is the only song of theirs that I know. I remember it being a huge hit on the rock n roll stations in the 90's.

Wow I haven't hear the Toadies in forever. Great flashback.


message 122: by Scott , Karsa Orlong (new)

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 8083 comments Mod
I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals
I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse

Niki Hawkes - The Obsessive Bookseller | 7639 comments Mod
Oooh!!! I actually knew that one.

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 8083 comments Mod
Memories are just where you laid them
Dragging the waters til the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find?
Was it something you left behind?
Don't you remember anything I said when I said,


message 127: by Rick (new)

Rick Newland | 21 comments Shit. I'll have that song in my head the rest of the day.


message 128: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Fuel. Love them.


message 129: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments I would swallow my pride,
I would choke on the rinds, but the lack thereof would leave me empty inside.
Swallow my doubt, turn it inside out,
Find nothing but faith in nothing.
want to put my tender
Heart in a blender,
Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion.
Rendezvous, and I'm through with you.

I burn, burn like a wicker cabinet.
Chalk white and oh-so-frail.
I see our time has gotten stale.
The tick-tock of the clock is painful, all sane and logical.
I want to tear it off the wall.
I hear words and clips and phrases,
I think sick like ginger ale.
My stomach turns and I exhale

Eve 6 another one hit wonder.


message 131: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Yep. There were a lot of those in the 90s.

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 8083 comments Mod
One of the funnest bands of the 90's

I took her out. It was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started making out, and she took off my pants
But then I turned on the TV


message 133: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments Blink 182 - What's my age again?

Niki Hawkes - The Obsessive Bookseller | 7639 comments Mod
Saccharine, caffeine, nicotine gum
Yeah it taste sweet but it's not for long
And I just think you thought it would be

When you're looking for truth on the cover of a magazine
How does it feel
When you find out what you're not gonna be (oh yeah)

They give you your image and the things you believe
Open your eyes tell me what did you see
And I just think you thought it surreal


message 135: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments I still have that album. :)

You got me with that one and I love that band. Very underrated.


message 137: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments I had to look it up and I agree with Scott.


message 138: by Samir (new)

Samir (royceblackwater) | 842 comments You got a great car
Yeah, what's wrong with it today?
I used to have one too,
Maybe I'll come and have a look.
I really love
your hairdo, yeah
I'm glad you like mine too,
See what looking pretty cool will get ya?

So, what do you do?
Oh yeah, I wait tables too.
No, I haven't heard your band,
'Cause you guys are pretty new.
But if you dig on vegan food
Well come over to my work
I'll have them cook you
Something that you'll really love.

I never would have come up with that one Samir.

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 8083 comments Mod
I'm only doing this one so it's stuck in all your heads. :)

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"


message 141: by Chris (new)

Chris (murphy44) | 710 comments So just how far down do you wanna go?
Well we could talk it out over a cup of Joe.
You could look deep into my eyes
Like i was a supermodel, uh-huh.

Well its you and me baby,
No one else we can trust.
And say nothin' to no one

No how our we bust
Never Crack a smile or flinch a cry
For nobody, uh huh

Give your ID card to the boarder guard
Your alias says your Captain Jean Luc Picard
Of the United Federation Of Planets
Cause they won't speak English anyways

Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people
So meet me at the mission at midnight
We'll divvy up there

Cause everybody knows, the world is full of stupid people
So I got the pistol, so I'll get the pesos
Yeah and that seems fair!

We'll put sugar in the tank of the sheriff's car
We'll slash the deputy's tires, and they won't get very far
When they finally get the word that there's been a hold up
Uh huh

Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people
So meet me at the mission at midnight,
We'll divvy up there

Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people
So I'll get the pistol, and I'll get the pesos
That seems fair
That seems fair
That seems fair yeah yeah yeah

So you give your ID card to the border guard
Now it says that you're Captain Jean Luc Picard
Of the United Federation Of Planets
Cause they don't speak English anyways

Everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people
I've got the pistols so I'll get the pesos
Yeah and that seems fair!
That seems fair
Yeah that seems fair
That seems fair

message 146: by Emelia (new)

Emelia  | 105 comments Tee-hee...ok group..try this one

I had visions, I was in them
I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
Rottenness and evil in me
Fingertips have memories
Mine can't forget the curves of your body
And when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(But no one ever does)
I'm not sick but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a tv

Isn't that Flagpole Sitta? I don't remember the band though...

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 8083 comments Mod
I got flagpole right away great tune. Maybe just because of their uniqueness and proximity of release date I always couple that with this song.

This bed is on fire with passionate love
The neighbors complain about the noises above
But she only comes when she's on top
The therapist said not to see you no more
She said you're like a disease without any cure
She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no
Ah you think you're so pretty
