[Edorf]

Now, to be honest... I actually just wanted to share these lyrics with the escapists, because I think they are really neat and well written (originally in Norwegian - I've translated them the best I could..)
Anyway, for discussion value: Post some lyrics that you think are neat! (Please note that lyrics can be poems aswell as song lyrics)

Bastard by Gnum

I've said it before, now I must say it again
I have nine, I have nine lives, and only one left
so when you ask me about everything I've done
You know that I regret as soon as you have asked

But it began in the year of 1835
that I was born to a doctor through his experiment
I am a mix of this and that
but there is no doubt that I must be half cat

For when I greet the people I meet on the street
they can throw looks at me
They can point at me and say bastard

But until I was 13 I lived in one life
It was far but, not that far I can live for nine
and wherever I people say I have bad luck
because I'm black

I burned chestnuts on the street but I got no customers
Come and buy! Come and buy! No, I need a miracle
I was taken care of by a certain Mr. Kaizer
He is the proud owner of the world's heaviest Siamese

In life number six, I commited suicide
in number seven as well
and number eight is the life I live now
and considering that I'm 61
it must have been a pretty good experiment

But now I look forward til the day it ends
it is not as good with nine lives
that you might have thought
and all I ask is a coffin or two
because I regret most things I've done

(He who predicts Mr.Kaizers plan
or scorns his king in a cathedral
he, himself shall cut his neck of with his own sword
and he will forever after be called a bastard)

I'm game

I've always loved the lyrics to Pleasure Seeker by Social Distortion. Also, it is an amazing song

Here I come, I'm on a run
Who wants to fight temptation that's no fun
C'mon and play the games, don't you feel no shame
That's what Eve said to Adam before she came

chorus:
You can smile now cry later on
you know that it might be wrong
But it feels so good, like you know it would
There's damnation and disgrace, and guilt rears its ugly face
Yet you beg for more, just a little more

Stand in line, don't you lose your mind
Try like me to seek your pleasure three at a time
There's souls for sale, your gonna burn in Hell
And if tomorrow never comes, its just as well

chorus:

Feel the pain! I feel it too
Have your hedonistic ways got the best of you?
Play the games, don't feel no shame
That's what Eve said to Adam before she came
