by Savage Garden
from the album Affirmation

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people’s hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it’s bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self-esteem
I believe I’m loved when I’m completely by myself alone
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

I believe you can’t control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love until you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

by Slipknot
from the album Slipknot

Enemy – Show me what you wanna be
I can handle anything
Even if I can’t handle you
Readily – Either way it better be
Don’t you fuckin’ pity me
Get up, get off…
What the hell am I sayin’?
I don’t know about malevolent
Sure as hell decadent
I want somebody to step up, step off
Walls! Let me fall! Fuck you all!
Get a grip, don’t let me slip ’til I drop the ball

I – I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I’m sick of it
You’re goin’ down, this is a war!

Who the fuck am I to criticize your twisted state of mind?
You’re leavin’ me suspect, I’m leavin’ you grotesque
Feels like a burn from which you never learn
Cause and effect, you jealous ass
Press your face against the glass – suffer

I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I’m sick of it
You’re goin’ down, this is a war!
I’ve just begun
It’s about that time
Gotta get mine

You can’t kill me
Cuz I’m already inside you

Sick

by Bright Eyes
from the album N/A

Here’s a scale, weigh it out and you’ll find, easily
More than sufficient doubt that these colors you see
were picked in advance by some careful hand
With an absolute concept of beauty
They are smeared and these blurs come in random order
And they color the eyes of your former lovers
Hers were green like July,
Except when she cried they were red
Now I know a disease that these doctors can’t treat
You contract on the day you accept all you see
Is a mirror, and a mirror is all it can be
A reflection of something we’re missing
And language just happened, it was never planned
And it’s inadequate to describe where I am
In the room of my house where the light’s never been
Waiting for this day to end
And these clocks keep unwinding and completely ignore
Everything that we hate or adore
Once the page of a calendar is turned it’s no more
So tell me then, what was it for?
Oh tell me, what was it for?

by Bee Gees
from the album Main Course

About an hour or more, when I go upstairs, you can read between the lines
I can make it to the top, but then I gotta stop
But I’m all right, I’m really fine
It’s just the wine and all this making love

In a day or so, it’ll really show, gonna wear me to the ground
It’s just the way it goes, she keeps me on my toes
But I’m all right, and should I mind
It’s just the wine and all this making love

And I can’t keep still, gonna make a will, ’cause I’m losing all my hair
I try to make it seem it isn’t just a dream
And I’m all right, I’m almost there
It isn’t fair to wake up all this making love

I get pleasure and pain, it’s a gravy train, it’s a wonderland, it’s a ride
And the rumor is I’m told, she’s really got a hold
And I’m all right, I’m really fine
It’s just the wine and all this making love

She’ll be making me strung by the tip of my tongue like a tiger in a cage
She’s got me up a wall, I’m slowing to a crawl
But I’m all right, I’m really fine
It’s just the wine and all this making love.

Too much too much too much too much…

by Notorious B.I.G.
from the album Life After Death

[Biggie] Yeah… fuck you
[Lil Kim] Fuck you too!
[B.I.G.] Fuck you bitch
[Lil Kim] Fuck you motherfucker
[B.I.G.] You ain’t shit anyway, fuck you
[Lil Kim] You ain’t shit, you fat motherfucker
[B.I.G.] Yeah, whatever whatever
[Lil Kim] Whatevah
[B.I.G.] You wasn’t sayin that when you was suckin my dick
[Lil Kim] You wasn’t sayin that when you was eatin my bush!
You a nasty motherfucker!
[B.I.G.] Check it, uhh
[Lil Kim] Crab ass

[Chorus One: B.I.G.]

What do ya do when yo’ bitch is untrue?
You cut that hooker off and find someone new
I need another bitch (another bitch), in my life

[Verse One: Notorious B.I.G.]

Uh-huh, uhh, uhh
I know he don’t treat you like I treat you
Time to explain the game you see through
Sex is lethal, I ain’t gon lie
Means to get ya back, I ain’t gon try
Like this ya’ll, my girl sucked anotha nigga dick y’all
Light skinned with the chrome die six y’all
Thought they was creepin, two trips to V-A every third weekend
While you was sleepin, he hit you on the box
Sixty-nine go non-stop
Shoulda left ya then, but my heart said not
You knew too much, the relationship grew too much
You knew about the crack vials, means to be trialed
Way I hid dough under the bathroom towel
Waited for a while, thought you was my right thing
Then things got frightening
Peep the scene, sorta like Sam Rosten
Guess you ginger, huh, go figure
Never thought you could be a gold digger
Take my dough and spend with the next nigga
Asked my man Trigga, my ace boom coon
Told me cut the bitch off ‘fore the shit balloon
Now I’m like Brandy, Sittin In My Room
Pissy drunk listenin to Stylistic tunes
Or the O-Jays, thinkin bout the old days
My nigga’s like, fuck that bitch, go play
Baller, did she beep you? Don’t call her
Guess who I seen, that freak bitch Paula
She was askin bout ya whereabouts
Here’s the digits, I know you can wear that out
Tear that out the frame, ya game so tight
You’ll be all fuckin night

[Chorus Two: Lil Kim]

What do ya do when your man is untrue?
Do you cut the sucker off and find someone new?
I need another man, in my life

[Verse Two: Lil Kim]

Mmm, uhhh, uhhh!
Member when you said you would die for me, shit
All of that was just lies to me
Motherfucker shoulda never said bye to me
Now you cry for me, like Jodeci
It’s like that y’all, my nigga hit another bitch from the back y’all
Black nasty and matter fact ya’ll
Shoulda seen the hoe, nigga pack ya shit
You out the door, ohh
What about the fight in the Mirage?
I seen ya Benz, parked outside my sister’s garage
Said it was ya friend Rog, bullshit
I ain’t gonna keep puttin up wit the bullshit
And still I, never sweat these bitches
Who be hanged like plaques on the wall and ya pictures
Scalin fishes, my love is concrete
Stashin ya heat in the passenger seat
of the Nautica Jeep, we’ve been down for so long
Still a bitch like me tryin to hold on
Teary eyed, damn a bitch steamin
Girls steady screamin, ‘Kim you need to leave him!’
When I testified in court, couldn’t think straight
thinkin bout the bitches I fought
over you, nigga half the shit you bought
And fuck you, movin is my last resort
You see nine outta ten niggaz, ain’t shit
One outta five niggaz suck a dick
Ya mad at me, too bad she ain’t as bad as me
Choulda kept the freak bitch off my canape
Now you see, ain’t no pussy warm as mine
Long as mine, ain’t no love as strong as this
When I sucked ya dick, it’s like smokin a roach
Uhh, I go from first class to coach

[Chorus One, Chorus Two, Chorus One, Chorus Two]

by R.E.M.
from the album Fables Of The Reconstruction

She didn’t want to get pinned down by her prior town
Get me to the train on time, here take this nickel make a dime
Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
What is at the other end, I don’t know another friend
Another wife, another morning spent
Listen, listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine

We never wrote the reasons that I need explained
Some things are givens, and others get away
This time its for myself you call it what you may
Okay, we won’t say goodbye so long, so much more
Listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine

Listen to the bargain holler
Listen to the barter holler
Listen to the auctioneer

Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime
Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
What is at the other end, an I don’t know another friend
Another wife, another morning spent
Listen to the auctioneer
Another engine, another engine

Do I stand the bargain holler?
Listen to the barter holler
Listen to the auctioneer

by Duncan Dhu
from the album Supernova

Miradas rotas callan al pasar
Por la avenida 3
La gente espera sin saber a qué
Junto a cualquier pared.

La ley aquí se cambia de disfraz y de color
La jungla sabe siempre distinguir quién es mejor
La luz hace brillar
Las gafas negras.

Triste vida, siempre te ha tratado mal
Viendo el barrio tras las gafas de cristal.
Malas calles te ense ñaron a vivir
El fracaso siempre se ha instalado aquí.

Las radios chillan fuerte y sin cesar
Ritmos de la ciudad
La suerte vive, la podrás oler
Cerca de Central Park.

Semilla negra dura de pelar
Y de cambiar
Las voces nacen en la oscuridad
Del corazón.

Tendrás ritmo en los pies
Y el alma negra.

by Radiohead
from the album N/A

There’s a little child
Running round this house
And he never leaves
He will never leave
And the fog comes up from the sewers
And glows in the dark

Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast
Grow up fast
Anything you want it can be done
How did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Somethings will never wash away
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?

by Nirvana
from the album In Utero

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don’t have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

In the sun
In the sun I feed as one
In the sun
In the sun
I’m married
buried
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I’ll take all the blame
Aqur scafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all we all are

by Prince
