Although I love instrumentals lyrics play a huge part in whether I love a song or not.
A few of my favorites...
Live - 10,000 years
The World is burning down
Can't you smell the smoke in the air?
War, disease, and famine
This demon, she is everywhere
.
Poets and preachers and politicians
They've all had their say
And we got 10,000 years
Devoted to nothing
But tomorrow and yesterday
.
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passes a second ago
What would you say?
Who would you obey?
I am here to say that
.
Peace is now
.
Mr. President
I hereby pardon you of all your crimes
For they are just as much mine
.
Selfishness and separation have led me
To believe that the world is not my problem
The world is not my problem
I am the world
And you are the world
.
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passes a second ago
What would you say?
Who would you obey?
I am here to say that
.
Peace is now

Blind Melon - Seed To A Tree
Oh As I shit, I sit and wonder why
My floor is so cold and my back broken tired
But life is good, even though it won't be long
With a candle comes emotions that
Dance with the shadows on my wall
What were you thoughts, as they
Were flying through your mind
Compared to what you feel from
The bars your now behind
If they could speak, what do you think
They would say to you?
I do believe you'd been better
Off if you'd just told the truth
Never had a problem till I stood face to face with me
And I wish there was a way for me to go inside so I could see
All the faces of the people who have torn a piece of me
As I grew from a seed to a tree
Can you feel the power of the eye
That's hidden away 5 feet from where we lie
What do you taste, when you take a drink of me
Is it to much for me to ask if I asked you to leave
Oh Please just leave 'cause I want to be alone
There's a fine line between love and my feelings for you
High time I washed it all away
Unkind, I watch your future burn before you
Denied, a chance of any love in your life
And I ask you one time..Why?

Public Enemy - Sophisticated Bitch
Ridenhour - shocklee - drayton
That woman in the corner - cold playin’ the role
Leave her ass in the corner till her feet get cold
Knowin’ for a fact - that girl is whacked
If you hold your hand out - she’ll turn her back
Better walk, don’t talk - she’s all pretend
Can’t be her friend unless you spend
Wall to wall - after all
Get ready to throw only money at the bitch
Cause she thinks she’s so-
Phisticated
So-
Phisticated

The Vandals - Anarchy Burger
Anarchy
Kill a cat
Shoot James Brady in the back
Raise an army of rabid rats
Beat your neighbor with a bat
Anarchy burger
Hold the government
Anarchy burger
Hold the government
Anarchy
Go ape shit
Let them know you're sick of it
Write your congressman
Tell him he sucks
Only in it for the bucks
America stands for freedom
But if you think you're free
Try walkin into a deli
And urinating on the cheese
Anarchy burger
Hold the government
