- Love comes in spurts by Richard Hell
I was a child
who wanted love that was wild
though tight as slow motion
but crazed with devotion
insane with devotion,
a whole other notion
I was fourteen and a half
and it wasn't no laugh
Love comes in spurts (oh no, it hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no, it hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (it always hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no!)
I just can't get wise
to those tragical lies
though I now know the facts
they still cut like an axe
baby, love comes in spurts
in dangerous flirts
and it murders your heart
they didn't tell you that part, baby!
Love comes in spurts (oh no!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no, it hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no, it hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (it always!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no, it hurts!)
Love comes in spurts (oh no, oh no, oh no!)
Love comes in spurts (it always hurts!)
- I saw an X-ray of girl passing gas (Butthole Surfers)
Ten foot tall and the nurse stuck a needle in my arm
Well Uncle Doc's nurse wields a needle with ungodly charm
Walkin' down the hall the dentist LOOMED through the door
I Saw an X-Ray of a girl passing gas
The one shot theory got a query things got rolling at last
Hey, HEY hey daddy, why die in the war
Jesus Hitler Buddha Santa Mary Klaus Barbie (Rice Bore?)
Well Ben got arrested and the sky was the ocean that day
Words got twisted and history didn't know what to say
God dog sex death life and now I'm feeling old
These images were conjured up by talking on the telephone
I Saw an X-Ray of a girl passing gas
Oh my God it seems like just the other day
But it might have been one hundred years before
And I know there is no other way
We only have to wonder what it's for

We're Much Preferred Customers - The Dissociatives
Welcome to Planet Pod
Where insects sound like lasers
and men who wear abrasive hats
with eyeballs judge like juries
and skin that flakes like ancient paint
Suffocate contentment
Birds creep over tin roofs
like criminals with tap shoes
Stain the glass with shadows
Extortionate and cold stare
We're much preferred customers
and honestly, I don't care
You'll get a chance
Another chance
One more sun
Drape the concrete curtains, over empty spaces
Age is just a number drawn on empty faces
In years of listening, I've never been able to understand the reason behind one line of it, other than being whacked out for the sake of being whacked out
It's one o'clock and time for lunch, dum dee dummmm dee dum
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk
There's always been Ethel
"Jacob, wake up! You've got to tidy your room now"
And then Mister Lewis
"Isn't it time that he was out on his own?"
Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - coo coo to you
Keep them mowing blades sharp
I know what I like, and I like what I know
getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show
Sunday night, Mr Farmer called, said
"Listen son, you're wasting time, there's a future for you
in the fire escape trade. Come up to town"
But I remebered a voice from the past
"Gambling only pays when you're winning"
- Had to thank old Miss Mort for schooling a failure
Keep them mowing blades sharp
I know what I like, and I like what I know
getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show
I know what I like, and I like what I know
getting in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,
I can always hear them talk
Me, I'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk
It's one o'clock and time for lunch, dum dee dummmm dee dum
When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench
I can always hear them talk

I love the song.. But I always have racked my brain trying to figure out what the hell Morrison was trying to say..
The Soft Parade
When I was back there in seminary school
There was a person there
Who put forth the proposition
That you can petition the Lord with prayer
Petition the lord with prayer
Petition the lord with prayer
You cannot petition the lord with prayer!
Can you give me sanctuary
I must find a place to hide
A place for me to hide
Can you find me soft asylum
I can't make it anymore
The Man is at the door
Peppermint, miniskirts, chocolate candy
Champion sax and a girl named Sandy
There's only four ways to get unraveled
One is to sleep and the other is travel, da da
One is a bandit up in the hills
One is to love your neighbor 'till
His wife gets home
Catacombs
Nursery bones
Winter women
Growing stones
Carrying babies
To the river
Streets and shoes
Avenues
Leather riders
Selling news
The monk bought lunch
Ha ha, he bought a little
Yes, he did
Woo!
This is the best part of the trip
This is the trip, the best part
I really like
What'd he say?
Yeah!
Yeah, right!
Pretty good, huh
Huh!
Yeah, I'm proud to be a part of this number
Successful hills are here to stay
Everything must be this way
Gentle streets where people play
Welcome to the Soft Parade
All our lives we sweat and save
Building for a shallow grave
Must be something else we say
Somehow to defend this place
Everything must be this way
Everything must be this way, yeah
The Soft Parade has now begun
Listen to the engines hum
People out to have some fun
A cobra on my left
Leopard on my right, yeah
The deer woman in a silk dress
Girls with beads around their necks
Kiss the hunter of the green vest
Who has wrestled before
With lions in the night
Out of sight!
The lights are getting brighter
The radio is moaning
Calling to the dogs
There are still a few animals
Left out in the yard
But it's getting harder
To describe sailors
To the underfed
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
What got us this far
To this mild equator?
We need someone or something new
Something else to get us through, yeah, c'mon
Callin' on the dogs
Callin' on the dogs
Oh, it's gettin' harder
Callin' on the dogs
Callin' in the dogs
Callin' all the dogs
Callin' on the gods
You gotta meet me
Too late, baby
Slay a few animals
At the crossroads
Too late
All in the yard
But it's gettin' harder
By the crossroads
You gotta meet me
Oh, we're goin', we're goin great
At the edge of town
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
Havin' a good time
Got to come along
What got us this far
To this mild equator?
Outskirts of the city
You and I
We need someone new
Somethin' new
Somethin' else to get us through
Better bring your gun
Better bring your gun
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure
We're gonna ride and have some fun
When all else fails
We can whip the horse's eyes
And make them sleep
And cry

Calling Sister Midnight
You've got me reaching for the moon
Calling Sister Midnight
You've got me playing the fool
Calling Sister Midnight
Calling Sister Midnight
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me well
Can you hear me at all
Calling Sister Midnight
I'm an idiot for you
Calling Sister Midnight
I'm a breakage inside
Calling Sister Midnight
Calling Sister Midnight
You know I had a dream last night
Mother was in my bed
And I made love to her
Father he gunned for me
Hunted me with his six gun
Calling Sister Midnight
What can I do about my dreams
Listen to me Sister Midnight
You put a beggar in my heart
Calling Sister Midnight
You've got me walking in rags
Hey where are you Sister Midnight
Can you hear me call
Can you hear me well
Can you hear me at all

Great song & great lyrics! Richard Hell rerecorded the tune with the Voidoids after he left the Heartbreakers. Meanwhile Johnny Thunders & the Heartbreakers changed the lyrics to make it "One Track Mind"
I'm too lazy for whole songs, but here's some few lines of lyrics that I've found to be pretty freaking weird.
"You look like you'd fit in the trunk of my car."
- Alice Cooper, "The One that Got Away"
"Every time you run around it makes me wanna pop."
- The Cars, "Think It Over"
"You mentioned Kant, and I was shocked, so shocked.
Where I come from, none of the girls have such foul tongues."
- Sparks, "Hasta Manana, Monsieur"
"Stick your head in the microwave,
and get yourself a tan."
- Weird Al, "Dare to be Stupid"
"I can make an exception,
if you wanna save my life.
Brigitte Bardot's gotta come
and see me every night."
- Elton John, "I Think I'm Gonna Kill Myself"
"Her little whiskers are stained
with the blood of those that she has slain."
- Lemon Demon, "Kitten is Angry"
"I went to high school and majored
in looking real bad
I've got a real ugly mum
and a real ugly dad."
//
"I went to Balboa Island
and laid in the sand,
I may be ugly as sin
but at least now I'm tan."
- Sparks, "I Wish I Looked a Little Better"
"And it's a teenage sadness
everyone has got to taste;
an in-between age madness
that you know you can't erase
'til she's sitting on your face."
- The Knack, "Good Girls Don't"
"Rippy the Gator went 'chomp, chomp, chomp'
passing the time by ending children's lives
down at the bottom of the swamp, swamp swamp."
- The Arrogant Worms, "Rippy the Gator"
"I'm Chief Kamanawanalea.
(We're the royal macadamia nuts!)"
- The Turtles
"I'm always touching myself.
I've got nothing else to do.
And when I'm touching myself,
I'm always thinking of you."
- Squeeze, "Touching Me, Touching You"
"I've got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well
[. . . . .]
so no one ****s with me!"
- Marilyn Manson, "Lunchbox"
"They scream until their neck bleeds
and jack off in the wind,
feeling all the power
it takes to be a general,
it takes to be a president. . ."
- Ric Ocasek, "Come Alive"
I'm sure there's tons more in this brain of mine. I'll come around a few times.
Mother Nature blighted me, she shorted on the peach
All the women laughed at me while reaching in the sheets
Time had passed & nothing grew I thought that all was lost
'cuz Mother Nature forgot me & hit with Killer Frost
Took all Kinds of growing pills from backs of magazines
kept on stuffing toilet paper down my old blue jeans
Gathered all my money took a boat across the sea
Doctors & electricians said they'd build a brand new me
chorus:
Now I've got,
Steel Grapes
All the man that you can handle
Steel Grapes
More than you can chew
Steel Grapes
You're burning both ends of the candle
Now it's up to you
Took a little time for me to get used to the size
all my friends they looked at me & said I's tellin' Lies
Told them how the doctors just had welded all the weight
& now I'm gonna prove it to them when I'm on a date
Took out old girl Nappy Knowing she's a hard attempt
I made my Nappy Happy when I exposed in the tent
All I needs a little oil to take good care of mine
Cuz all the women love the way I make that metal shine
"And it's a teenage sadness
everyone has got to taste;
an in-between age madness
that you know you can't erase
'til she's sitting on your face."
- The Knack, "Good Girls Don't"

That's a little gem too. I really love the LP version of "(She's So) Selfish". It's not that watered-down, censored shitass version that's been circulated in the digital world. Down and dirty rock n' roll.
Also really love "Mr. Handleman", especially for the lines . . .
"She's pretty pretty like a woman in [her] prime,
no, you won't need a water bed to have a good time."
(though those lyrics are probably flawed, I didn't even bother to look them up.)
