by Manowar
from the album Sign Of The Hammer

I made a rock’n'roll sin
When I tried givin in to
make money had to turn down low.
They said, "why be proud, don’t play so loud,
be like us and get a sound that’s real thin.
Wear a polyester suit, act happy look cute,
get a haircut and buy small gear"
That’s when I turned to them and said,
"hold it, right there!"

Well it’s more to me than just a job,
and while I’m playin’ you won’t get robbed.
Nobody tells a man how to play,
It just ain’t that way hey, hey, hey,
can you hear me say…

All men play on ten,
never gonna turn down again.
All men play on ten,
never gonna turn down.

I’m jet fuel honey, plug me into 220
Step back and let my fingers fly
While I’m burning up my gear
There’s a fire in your ear
That won’t stop until the day you die.

I really put it to the floor when I hear the crowd roar
Oh it’s music to my ears when they scream
Then I run back to the power rack
and deck all of my gear.

Well it’s more to me than just a job,
and while I’m playin’ you won’t get robbed.
Nobody tells a man how to play,
It just ain’t that way hey, hey, hey,
can you hear me say…

by Case
from the album Open Letter

You know a man could never truly understand
The beauty of a woman
Until he takes part in making one
I love you Skye
(My sunshine, you’re my life, you’re my life, you are)

[1] – You are my reason
Girl I sing this song to you
I love everything about you
You are my reason
Girl I sing this song to you
I love every little thing about you

Sitting here thinking ’bout you girl
And what you mean to me
And how long it took me to believe
How much you really change my life, oh yeah
In your eyes I can see the sunshine
Girl I’m so happy you’re all mine

[2] – You are the reason my sun shines
Why everything seems just fine
Your daddy’s so proud of you
And all the little things you do
Sometimes I ask my God why
He blessed me with you Skye
Just know that you were made from love
Give thanks above

[Repeat 1]

I was walking around lost for oh so long
Till little lady came my way
And it made me say
That I love you unconditional babe
Cause now I’m whole, you’re in my soul
All I do is think about you baby

[Repeat 2]

[Repeat 1]

You’re in my prayers every night
Asking God to keep you, yeah
Safe in His arms (oh yeah) it’s alright (oh yeah)
Pretty little mama

[Repeat 1 till end]

by Moonspell
from the album Irreligious

Awake… for all is dying, even the dead

We are our Past failing to come back

All of us visionaires
with a rope around our neck

by The Tragically Hip
from the album Trickle Down

he was a coal miner in the spring
blinded with its dusty resolutions
broke his back for higher contributions
now he’d take anything
well she was 1970
burning like a cigarette long season
heir to her family’s old treasons
she makes love hard like an enemy
oh ma he’s dying

and the river don’t sleep
when the water runs cold
and the calendar burns
as the story unfolds
and the valley spans miles
when the mountain stands high
can’t they let us run wild
for another midnight

perhaps we’re election day
pumping hands and kissing all the babies
ain’t no time for shadowed doubts or maybes
is there another way?
or we’re a stolen Cadillac
racing for a roadblock in the distance
flashing by a lifetime in an instance
can we take it all back?
oh ma he’s dying
oh ma he’s dying

and the river don’t sleep…

can we take it back

and the valley spans miles
when the mountain stands high
can’t they let us run wild
for another midnight

by Eagles
from the album N/A

Well, I heard some people talkin’ just the other day
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf
Well, let me tell ya, I got some news for you
And you’ll soon find out it’s true
And then you’ll have to eat your lunch all by yourself

‘Cuz I’m already gone
And I’m feelin’ strong
I will sing this victory song
Woo-ooh-ooh

The letter that you wrote me
Made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
Just remember this, my girl
When you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light
That’s right

And I’m already gone
And I’m feelin’ strong
I will sing this victory song
Woo-ooh-ooh

Well I know it wasn’t you who held me down
Heaven knows it wasn’t you who set me free
So oftentimes it happens
That we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key

But me, I’m already gone
And I’m feelin’ strong
I will sing this victory song
‘Cuz I’m already gone

Yes, I’m already gone
And I’m feelin’ strong
I will sing this victory song
‘Cuz I’m already gone

by Eiffel 65
from the album Europop

it’s another race from outer space.
it’s another race away, away.
it’s another race from outer space.
it’s another race away, away.

they seem to walk on air,
and they act pretty strange.
they live around us,
but you can’t recognize them
we can’t communicate.
with they’re one way brain.
no matter how you try,
you just won’t understand them.

it’s another race from outer space.
it’s another race away, away.
it’s another race from outer space.
it’s another race away, away.

and they think they got it made,
they’re right, but they’re wrong.
and they try to use our words
but it’s a lie.

by Korn
from the album Untouchables

Pick me up
Been bleeding too long
Right here, right now
I’ll stop it somehow

I will make it go away
Can’t be here no more
Seems this is the only way
I will soon be gone
These feelings will be gone
These feelings will be gone

Now I see the times they change
Leaving us, it seems so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?

Shut me off
I’m ready
Heart stops
I stand alone
Can’t be my own

I will make it go away
Can’t be here no more
Seems this is the only way
I will soon be gone
These feelings will be gone
These feelings will be gone

Now I see the times they change
Leaving us, it seems so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?

Am I going to leave this place?
What is it I’m hanging from?
Is there nothing more to come?
(Am I gonna leave this place?)
Is it always black in space?
Am I going take its place?
Am I going to leave this race?
(Am I going to leave this race?)
I guess God’s up in this place?
What is it that I’ve become?
Is there something more to come?
(More to come)

Now I see the times they change
Leaving us, it seems so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?

by The Hives
from the album Barely Legal

Born only a month ago yet I’m (already) fully grown from head to toe.
Lots of metal, lots of grease and put together piece by piece.
To support a system that uses me….but the day is here and they’re gonna see.
I’m on a mission cause now I’ve had it.
I watch their system and spit right at it.
I was born and plated a schmuck they created.
I’ll explode I’ll erode yeah I’ll break you fucking code cause I’m an automatic schmuck.
With a tendency to rock.
Deprived of mind but yet I know – I’m a metallic man about to blow.
Time to set the record straight.
Time to let out all my hate.
I’m on a mission an metallic man with the intention to expose the plan.
I was born and plated a schmuck they created.
I’ll explode I’ll erode yeah I’ll break you fucking code cause I’m an automatic schmuck.
With a tendency to rock.
I’m on a mission a metallic goof – it takes a man of steal to reveal the truth.
I was born and plated a schmuck they created.
I’ll explode I’ll erode yeah I’ll break you fucking code cause I’m an automatic schmuck.
With a tendency to rock.

by Big L
from the album The Big Picture

[Big L]
One-two, one-two
Kinda tired..
Big L, ’bout ta.. get into some shit
Aight check it out

Yo, fuck all the glamours and glitz, I plan to get rich
I’m from New York and never was a fan of the Knicks
And I’m all about expandin my chips
You mad cause I was in the van with your bitch
with both hands on her tits
Corleone hold the throne, that you know in your heart
I got style, plus the way that I be flowin is sharp
A while back I used to hustle, sellin blow in the park
Countin G stacks and rockin ice that glow in the dark
Forever – hottie huntin, trigger temper I’m quick to body somethin
You lookin at me like I’m probably frontin
I fuck around and throw, three in your chest and flee to my rest
I’m, older and smarter this is me at my best
I stopped hangin around y’all, cause niggaz like you
be prayin on my downfall, hopin I flop
Hopin I stop, you probably even hope I get locked
or be on the street corner with a pipe, smokin the rock
I got more riches than you, fuck more bitches than you
Only thing I haven’t got is more, stitches than you
Fuckin punk, you ain’t a +Leader+ what? Nobody +Follow-ed+ you
You was never shit, your mother shoulda swallowed you
(Mmmm.. WHOO!) You on some tagalong flunkie yes man shit
Do me a favor, please get off the next man dick
And if you think I can’t fuck with whoever, put your money up
Put your jewels up, no fuck it put your honey up
Put your raggedy house up nigga, or shut your mouth up
before I buck lead, and make a lot of blood shed
Turn your tux red, I’m far from broke, got enough bread
And mad hoes, ask Beavis I get nuttin Butt-head
{*laughter*} My game is, vicious and cool
Fuckin chicks is a rule
If my girl think I’m loyal then that bitch is a fool
How come, you can listen to my first album
and tell where a lot of niggaz got they whole style from?
(YEAH!) So what you actin for?
You ain’t half as raw, you need to practice more
Somebody tell this nigga sum’un, ‘fore I crack his jaw
You runnin with boys, I’m runnin with men
I’ma be rippin the mics until I’m a hundred and ten
Have y’all niggaz like, "Damnit this nigga done done it again"
I throw slugs at idi-ots, no love for city cops
I sport a pretty watch, eight-hundred and fifty rocks
I’m makin wonderful figures
I don’t fuck with none of you niggaz
I might pull out this gun on your niggaz
and rob every last one of you niggaz

[Bobbito] YEAHHH! (What?)
[Big L] I’m TIRED
[Bobbito] For somebody tired, that wasn’t, that wasn’t too bad!

by Machine Head
from the album Supercharger

I was that kid sittin’ over
in the corner,
smiling with a shit-eating grin
And I was that kid smilin’ in
the back of class
’cause I’m fryin’ on mescaline
I was that kid drinkin’ 40’s
on the bleachers
getting drunk after school
Gettin’ home too late,
fallin’ on my face,
way too drunk to skate
and actin’ a fool

I was that kid never doing
good at
nothing except for maybe
at P.E.
And I was that kid getting
bullied by the
filipinos rollin with ABT
Me and my friends reading
the satanic bible thinking
we should start a band
Cutting class to jam,
cutting class to jam
In my dad’s garage we
learned to

Act a fool – don’t need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in school
don’t rock ‘n roll
But this is my american high

I was that kid that was
crank-calling
your girlfriend, couldn’t
get a goddamn date
And I was that kid that was
getting hella busted for
pissin’ on the bart train
I fuckin’ hated school
except for hanging out
with my friends, the
outcast that was
startin’ up a ban
Fremont was the town,
California-bound,
bay area sound, taught me to

Act a fool – don’t need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in school
don’t rock ‘n roll
But this is my american high

I’m that kid you tried to
punk in english class
Now I’m in a band and
you’re kissing my…

Asteroids beat out homework
Slayer beat out Zeppelin
Not the sharpest noggin
that’s why I’m in this band

And what you got against
me, I don’t need a new job
What you got against me,
I’ll get by on my own
Tellin’ me I’m never getting
by from my songs
I love it when you’re
proven wrong

Act a fool – don’t need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in school
don’t rock ‘n roll
But this is my american high

Act a fool – don’t need to
be cool
Break the rules
’cause this is my american high.
