[Misc] Songs With Lines That Just Don't Make Sense

[Eeyore]

Just a few to start with....

Brotherhood Of Man - Angelo

'They ran away to their destiny'

They actually committed suicide....

Sing A Rainbow- Peggy Lee

'Listen with your eyes....'

I've tried, it doesn't work

Hot Chocolate- I'll Put You Together Again

'When you feel your life is over..put down your tablets and pick up your pen and I'll put you together again'.

I think it's a little more urgent than that...

 

[half time scores]

Beatles, I am the walrus

I am he as you are he, as you are me and we are all together
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly
I'm crying

Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob

Mister City policeman sitting pretty little policemen in a row
See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run
I'm crying, I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying

Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye

Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess
Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob

Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come, you get a tan from standing in the english rain

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob
Expert textpert choking smokers
Don't you think the joker laughs at you?
See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snied

I'm crying
Semolina pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower

Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar-Allan-Poe

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen
I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob
Goo goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob, g'goo...

Here they are
The Beatles!

 

[BN9 BHA]

Anything by REM

 

[dazzer6666]

Cheesecake, her sugar gets me high....Cheesecake, Got my fingers in her pie

 

[BN41Albion]

Brimful of Asha on the 45
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the 45
Brimful of Asha on the 45
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the 45

Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Mine's on the 45

That makes more senses if you know who Asha Bhosle is

 

[Razzoo]

Dead Moon have a song called My Escape.
It contains the line
I go to my room, lock the door and plan my escape.

Just 'cos you don't understand it ......................

 

[Return of the Rev]

An Eskimo showed me a movie
He'd recently taken of you
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
His lips and his fingers were blue
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
And I guess he just never got warm
But you stand there so nice, in your blizzard of ice

 

[Lady Whistledown]

"Twas light years of time since his mission did start"

Sod off, De Burgh: a light year is a measure of distance, not time, and even the fact that it's a Christmas song should never deflect from that horror of a lyric.

 

[lizard]

Swing low In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a stone dark night
We take to flight
Snowfall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man starts to fall
Here in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call

Stiltskin - Inside.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

"With logs on the fire, and gifts on the tree"

Who puts gifts ON the tree, FFS?

 

[Soton Seagull]

Anything by REM

Including the fabulous 'and you're drifting off to sleep with your teeth in your mouth' - from 'you are everything'.

Bonkers line, clearly a filler.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

This may or may not make sense but it is effing brilliant. Fact.

I was thinking about thinking
but it really didn't get me very far,
so I thought I'd throw a Tarot,
but I only got the Priestess and the Star.
There's a shadow cast between the future and the past;
the room and I agree to buy some time....
The cards don't tell truth nor lies,
only options and cusp lines:
the furniture in the black room.

I've been thinking about acid,
but, it seems, there's not a reason to believe.
I don't make a vital breakthrough
and it walks me like a dog upon a lead.
It's all unreal and, the way I feel,
I'd like to try and make it on my own....
Going to the feelies is fine:
I really have me a good pleasure cruise.
But, deep in my mind,
I'm no better or worse, just open to the walls.
Paint peels in the black of my room.

I'm only talking about myself, ordering the treasure shelf,
documenting these present feelings as the future sets me reeling....
What I'll be is what I am,
I'm simply trying not to sham or fake.
Use vision as sense and not as crutch!
It doesn't matter all that much;
whatever happens we'll all survive,
I'm only trying not to pawn my life.

When I'm (maybe) old and strait-laced,
shall I then deny all that I feel?
In words of bitter compromise,
re-smelt the wrath that's in my eyes like steel?
Be a hermit then?
Or be a miser?
Be a man who hasn't managed yet to write his rules?
The Fool?
The future holds my hand in the room....

Well, then, my ghosts shall steer down through the years
and lay a hand upon my soul
like ice.


So: onto the familiar top steps!
In cloud-scud moonlight glow
the Tower reels.
I, the blind man,
feeling for a path I know...
don't you know that I'm only feeling for how to feel?

Rats run.
Snakes coil.
Fathers
stare out at the whispering night;
rub mud on their arms.

Spiders.
Mud boils.
Children
whimper in the human vortex;
faces glow of worms.

THUNDER
Silence.
Omens....

I think it's coming,
all signs are very near, all signs are that
pain shall come
and change shall run
down through my heart
and shake my knees
and now it is coming,
all around is the humming
of the World.

Too late, with my balance gone,
dead-eyed doll,
I'm falling, falling
back to where I began....


I'm feeling like a kid again,
I'm feeling like I just walked in the door,
and with my head on fire
I wrote this song - I don't know who it's for.
Hands held fast in camera,
I'll swear I heard the Stammerer exclaim:
"I am a traveller, unraveller,
I only live through pain, and shame, and change!"

In my room, the secret tomb, I can see
future forms, space/time storms:
they're all me,
and I've only got to choose!

In my head I am dead if I fall
in the trap,
the subtle lap,
safety's pall....
but I'm living while I choose....

 

[zeemeeuw]

"Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go, there will be trouble
And if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know."

You should probably go.

 

[METALMICKY]

Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in this town

Sorry Phil but only Manchester police would fail to conclude................the jail

 

[Mellotron]

Are we human, or are we dancer?

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Why does God need to save our gracious Queen?
From what exactly.
I'm assuming she can swim if she got into any difficulties.

 

[clapham_gull]

"And I'm feelin' glad all over"

Living in Croydon ?

Never made sense to me.
