    Hey, I like Tool....although I'm more of a Korn guy myself.

    ...but you missed my point entirely.

    Oh, and suck on some Nitty Gritty Dirt Band!

    I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you
    In worn out shoes
    With silver hair, a ragged shirt, and baggy pants
    The old soft shoe
    He jumped so high, jumped so high
    Then he lightly touched down

    I met him in a cell in New Orleans I was
    down and out
    He looked to me to be the eyes of age
    as he spoke right out
    He talked of life, talked of life, he laughed
    clicked his heels and stepped

    He said his name "Bojangles" and he danced a lick
    across the cell
    He grabbed his pants and spread his stance,
    Oh he jumped so high and then he clicked his heels
    He let go a laugh, let go a laugh
    and shook back his clothes all around

    Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
    Mr. Bojangles, dance

    He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
    throughout the south
    He spoke through tears of 15 years how his dog and him
    traveled about
    The dog up and died, he up and died
    And after 20 years he still grieves

    He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks
    for drinks and tips
    But most the time I spend behind these county bars
    'cause I drinks a bit
    He shook his head, and as he shook his head
    I heard someone ask him please

    Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
    Mr. Bojangles, dance..

    Look, I really want to at least offer your opinions some consideration. Thing is, I grew up listening to the likes of Crass and the Dead Kennedys; there's no message to anyone over 20 in a System of a Down tune:shrug: We've heard it, thought it over, and acted accordingly since most of your songwriters were crawling.

    Not trying to imply agism here, because the fact is WF has had several adolescent members who started smart and grew wise... even (if not especially) the ones that challange the status quo here. The fact is that by offering lyric sheets, you're failing to provide any discussion of your own... Plagarism by poetry.

    I thank you for underscorig my point. Quaint how you try to set yourself up as one of those rare, elite fans that knows what they truly mean in their songs.

    And yeah, when your band is being published through Sony and available on columbia house, you're mainstream pop rock for bubblegummers.

    He claims KamelReds put him on to the board, which would imply either he's real or Kamel is running a dual.

    Listen kid, Despite being elderly and "out of touch", it actually takes experience to run a whole country. Experience which is not generally accumulated all that fast in a realm such as politics. The best we're going to get is someone in thier mid to late forties, at which point ytou would probably consider them "out of touch", which really means that they have an actual agenda instead of pandering to the masses.



    Mudvayne and Tool are TOTALLY mainstream, at least as far as counterculture goes; In fact, they ARE the mainstream. They've been around forever, and are usually the inspiration for all the up-and-comers. Tool, specifically, has been around since 1990, at which point you were probably just learning how to say the word Tool.

    I've been a fan of tool for a very long time, and when you appreciate that kind of music in such a fanatic and religious way as I, you tend to look beyond the obvious.

    For future reference, do not EVAR reduce the lyrical and compositional skill required to compose such great works to the mere ability to "put a good beat and some catchy lyrics together". That's what the Backstreet Boys and R&B are for.


    And don't dis Jesus. He's my Homeboy. :3

    I think we should have a thread just for shouting lyrics at one another.

    Only obscure lyrics, like Tool, Mudvayne, and John Mayer.

    How a bout a big ol' plate of Leonard Nimoy fags!


    In the middle of the earth in the land of the Shire
    lives a brave little hobbit whom we all admire.
    With his long wooden pipe,
    fuzzy, woolly toes,
    he lives in a hobbit-hole and everybody knows him

    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    He's only three feet tall
    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    The bravest little hobbit of them all

    Now hobbits are a peace-lovin' folks you know
    They don't like to hurry and they take things slow
    They don't like to travel away from home
    They just want to eat and be left alone
    But one day Bilbo was asked to go
    on a big adventure to the caves below,
    to help some dwarves get back their gold
    that was stolen by a dragon in the days of old.

    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    He's only three feet tall
    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    The bravest little hobbit of them all

    Well he fought with the goblins!
    He battled a troll!!
    He riddled with Gollum!!!
    A magic ring he stole!!!!
    He was chased by wolves!!!!!
    Lost in the forest!!!!!!
    Escaped in a barrel from the elf-king's halls!!!!!!!

    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    The bravest little hobbit of them all

    Now he's back in his hole in the land of the Shire,
    that brave little hobbit whom we all admire,
    just a-sittin' on a treasure of silver and gold
    a-puffin' on his pipe in his hobbit-hole.

    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    He's only three feet tall
    Bilbo! Bilbo! Bilbo Baggins
    The bravest little hobbit of them all

    How about Warren Zevon?

    I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
    Dong the Werewolves of London.
    I saw Lon Chaney Junior walking with the Queen
    Doing the Werewolves of London.
    I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vicks.
    His hair was perfect



    What does it mean? I have no fucking clue.

    The Slits were obscure and angst ridden.

    <sung to the tune of screaming so loud your ears bleed and you can't understand a fucking word>

    You sit up there deciding my future
    What the fuck do you think you are
    If you like white, I'll be black
    If you like black, I'll be yellow
    If you like rational, I'll be impossible
    If you like reasonable I'll be insane
    If you like peace and flowers
    I'm going to carry knives and chains

    I'm going to be your Number one enemy
    All for the hell of it

    I shout pagan pop music lyrics at people. It's hard to be more obscure than that.

    Two from Big Dumb Face, they go together. First is to the tune of speed-blue grass and the second is a more traditional speed metal- apparently they just can't play slowly.

    Duke Lion

    He`s the son of man and God and lion
    He`s the one who keeps the good from dyin`
    We`ve seen the rest, he is the best
    He`s the best and his name is Duke Lion

    His gold sword can shoot out balls of fire
    His special armor makes him never tire
    His magical arrows fly like sparrows
    He fights the good for free, he`s not for hire

    A bolt of lightning from the sky, Duke Lion
    Where there is battle he will fly, Duke Lion
    He`s never late, he`s super great
    He`s here to stay, so let us thank Duke Lion

    Here he comes to save the day, Duke Lion
    He will make the villians pay, Duke Lion
    His golden sword will crush the horde
    He`s here to stay, so let us thank Duke Lion!

    He`s the son of man and God and lion
    He`s the one who keeps the good from dyin`
    You`ve see the rest, he is the best
    He`s the best and his name is Duke Lion

    Blood Red Head

    Blood red head
    Blood red head

    No one knows who sent it
    Or what it first was called
    No one knows who made it
    Or when it first was mauled
    No one understands why
    It burns but never dies
    One thing is for sure though
    That burning bastard flies

    Chrous:
    Here comes the burning blood red head on fire
    As laser beams shoot from the eyes of the choir
    It doesn`t need a body cuz it flies through the air
    It`s the blood red head on fire and it doesn`t care

    If you think you`re bad-ass
    And you try to stand your ground
    It will look into your eyes and make it`s awful sound
    Then it will suddenly fly at you
    And hit you in the head or chest
    Then your body will disinegrate
    Because the blood red head`s the best

    Chorus

    Razor sharp fangs in a gross mouth
    Yellow burning eyes, surprise
    Gordy cauliflower ears
    And talons growing out of its face
    8 feet off the ground
    Moving fast and looking down
    The people scatter as the foul death spreads

    You may think Duke Lion
    Could defeat this awful foe
    You may be right
    Cuz they fought about a week ago
    The blood red head on fire
    Was immune to Duke`s fireballs
    So Duke gave up and went on a quest
    For the ice sword of Gaultry

    Chorus

    I'm sleeping
    And right in the middle of a good dream
    Like all at once I wake up
    From something that keeps knocking at my brain
    Before I go insane
    I hold my pillow to my head
    And spring up in my bed
    Screaming out the words I dread ....
    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    This morning, I woke up with this feeling
    I didn't know how to deal with
    And so I just decided to myself
    I'd hide it to myself
    And never talk about it
    And did not go and shout it
    When you walked into the room .....
    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    I think I love you
    So what am I so afraid of?
    I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
    A love there is no cure for
    I think I love you
    Isn't that what life is made of?
    Though it worries me to say
    I've never felt this way

    I don't know what I'm up against
    I don't know what it's all about
    I've go so much to think about
    Hey! I think I love you!
    So what am I so afraid of?
    I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
    A love there is no cure for
    I think I love you
    Isn't that what life is made of?
    Though it worries me to say
    I've never felt this way

    Believe me
    You really don't have to worry
    I only want to make you happy
    And if you say
    Hey, go away, I will
    But I think better still
    I'd better stay around and love you
    Do you think I have a case?
    Let me ask you to your face
    Do you think you love me?

    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

    "I think I love you!" (I think I love you

    1) I don't think there are many members of the NRA or affiliated groups that are going to vote Obama. I get the WAC (Wa Arms Collectors) monthly magazine and they are VERY anti-Obama. The people I talk to at the gun shows in Monroe and Puyallup are all very anti-Obama, and THIS IS IN WESTERN WASHINGTON/SEATTLE AREA. :lol:

    2) Those of us that do support the 2nd and are undecided, aren't exactly going to be suddenly swayed by an NRA ad IMO.

    Noone who votes for Obama can credibly claim to support the Second Amendment.
