Skillfully tested, rhythmically possessed with rhymes And when it was time, Jah gave me the mic after he blessed it He said share the loving, prepare them for the Second Coming Beware of the false prophets, because they got my people bugg'n Put on the full armor, cause you know these fools they're gonna wanna Talk behind your back, but stay away from the drama You know that I'm gonna keep you safe inside the palm of my hand Cause you the man and that's word to your mama So give it to 'em, it's themselves that they're fool'n Gotta head of the game too quick, what they lack is ol' school'n You know who's who, whether or not I'm talking to your crew It's up to you to keep it true, nuff respect due.
chorus (x2): Dem test me crew, but dem can't get with this Dem all the same, talking wickedness (nonsense – 2nd time) Your styles been played, and I'm already sick of it Them so ridiculous, them so ridiculous.
Original Rude Boy, we bring the styles Ain’t heard this in a while, check the stats, review my profile They dime a dozen, can't understand why all the fuss'n Known for talking loud but they really saying nothing With every word you poison my mental concept Negative be the topic, somebody's got to stop it And clear your mind and continue to come alive And he love, we love, bring it back, come, rewind.
chorus
To all my peoples that be keeping it real They know the time and they know the deal To all my peoples that are down with this crew We keep it live cause this one's for you
chorus
“Christ”
You're not who they say you are They made you the enemy (CHRIST-Jah flesh; CHRIST-Light within; CHRIST- Beginning and the end) Taken something so beautiful Painted a new picture that makes me sick (CHRIST-Witness; CHRIST-Living one; CHRIST-First and the last) Feed our minds confusion Sweeten the taste of pollution. (CHRIST-Word life; CHRIST-Resurrect; CHRIST-Everlasting Jah)
chorus: Some people call you father Maybe you could set me free These people hate each other But you've always been there for me
I refuse to be like you Without life, caving in (CHRIST-Jah flesh; CHRIST-Light within; CHRIST- Beginning and the end) I surrender, giving up all that is me Yielding to you (CHRIST-Witness; CHRIST-Living one; CHRIST-First and the last) Shape me in my brokeness Empower me forever (CHRIST-Word life; CHRIST-Resurrect; CHRIST-Everlasting Jah)
chorus
outro: I know you will complete this work started in me I need you more than ever now that I know who you are I know you will complete this work started in me I need you more than ever now that I've come so far
Ich glaube, ich bin im Moment in meiner Fishbones-Phase. Was ich an ihnen so mag: Die Lieder hören sich so herrlich harmlos an, man versteht die Texte aber nie ganz und ist dann ziemlich "geschockt", wenn man dann sowas liest:
Banana Fishbones Icecubes
A day on the beach, there is sand in my hair The people I greet, they just stare Is it blood seeping out of my yellow bag A dark red spot which is growing big and red and the drops are black
I TRY TO OPEN UP THE ZIPPER BUT IT BLOCKS BY HAIR AND GOSH THAT`S TERRIFYING ME ! UP I JUMP NO BREATH, NO BLOOD PICKING UP MY LEGS AND QUICKLY THE BAG I FLEE !
Cool down breathing speaking softly to me Mother Mary reaches down for me and she speaketh to me
PUT THE ROOT OF THIS PLANT INTO HER MOUTH FIX HER HEAD ON THE CORPSE AND YOU`LL FIND HER ALIVE! LOVE THIS LADY `TILL YOUR DEATH WITH HONESTY TRUE HOPE AND BURNING EYES ! I DO JUST AS THE MOTHER SAID, HIDE HER IN MY ROOM AS THE MOTHER SAID HIDE HER IN MY ROOM SHE WAKES UP WITH HORRIFIED EYES AND I REALIZE THAT WHAT I DID WAS DOOM MY GOD I`M DOOMED !
IT`S LIKE A MILLION ICECUBES FALL DOWN IT`S LIKE A MILLION ICECUBES
SHE TAKES ME THROWS ME NAILS ME TO THE GROUND OPENS THE YELLOW BAG I HEAR THE ZIPPER`S SOUND HER AXE`S LOOKING SHARP AND THAT`S MAKING ME SMILE `CAUSE I THINK THAT I`LL BE CAUGHT IN THAT BAG FOR A WHILE
CARRIED AROUND, HELPLESSLY FOUND WOKEN CARRIED AROUND, HELPLESSLY FOUND BROKEN
This time taking it away I’ve got a problem With me getting in the way My final sign So I take my face and bash it into a mirror I won't have to see the pain bleed bleed
This state is elevating As the hurt turns into hating Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again
The hurt inside is fading This shits gone way to far All this time I’ve been waiting Now I cannot grieve anymore For what’s in side awaking My god I’m not a whore You’ve taken everything And now I cannot give anymore
My minds done with this Ok I got a question Can I throw it all away? Take back what’s mine? So I take my time driving humbly down the line Each cut goes up to the vain bleed bleed
this state is elevating As the hurt turns into hating, Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again
The hurt inside is fading This shits gone way to far All this time I’ve been waiting Now I cannot grieve anymore For what’s in side awaking My god I’m not a whore You’ve taken everything And now I can not give anymore
I’m here to stay, Bring me down [x4]
Gonna Bring me / you down [x5]
This state is elevating As the hurt turns into hating Anticipating all the fucked up feelings again
The hurt inside is fading This shits gone way to far All this time I’ve been waiting Now I cannot grieve anymore For what’s in side awaking My god I’m not a whore You’ve taken everything And now I cannot give anymore
Im all around you like a ghost in the night I gess I Know you dont care But the way you move starts my heart to groove Im all around you
I stick around you like to hear your voice I hope you know Im not fair Watch you all day long Call you on the phone I stick around you
Like a vision in the dark Your looks a bite of a shark Baby I belive in you Until the moon will get a bark Baby I ll belive I ll belive in you honey Baby I ll belive in you
I`d like to talk to you but you dont care Am I a ghost why cant you see me Baby look at me baby please dont flee I´d like to talk to you
So what can I do and what should I say How can I make you have a look`t me I ll catch ya catch ya Like a ghost in the night
You were my wild companion We were forever high We burned the night around us Sleeping could wait until we die You wear the scars of passion And since the crashing came You've broken every promise I walked away
I watched you fall I was blind to you Was lying to you like everybody else Who watched you fall They say they love you But they're laughing when you crawl
It's such a weary feeling When you've been stealing from yourself Wishing the world away Blaming someone else Now no one can do this for you Straighten your hair and fix your face Take all the pain inside you Wash it away
I watched you fall I was blind to you Was lying to you like everybody else Who watched you fall They say they love you But they're laughing when you crawl
Did I hear you Did I try Can I forgive myself for not standing by
I watched you fall I was blind to you Was lying to you like everybody else Who watched you fall They say they love you But they're laughing when you crawl
The sun is sleeping quietly once upon a century. Wistful oceans, calm and red, ardent caresses laid to rest. For my dreams I hold my life, for wishes I behold my nights. A truth at the end of time; losing faith makes a crime.
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time; the darkness around me - shores of a solar sea. Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun! Sleeping, weeping, with you.
Sorrow has a human heart, from my God it will depart. I`d sail before a thousand moons, never finding where to go... 222 days of light will be desired by a night. A moment for the poet`s play - until there`s nothing left to say...
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time; the darkness around me - shores of a solar sea. Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun! Sleeping, weeping, with you.
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time; the darkness around me - shores of a solar sea. Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun! Sleeping, weeping, with you.
Sucker love is heaven sent. You pucker up, our passion's spent. My hearts a tart, your body's rent. My body's broken, yours is spent.
Carve your name into my arm. Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed. Cuz there's nothing else to do, Every me and every you.
Sucker love, a box I choose. No other box I choose to use. Another love I would abuse, No circumstances could excuse.
In the shape of things to come. Too much poison come undone. Cuz there's nothing else to do, Every me and every you. Every me and every you, Every Me...he
Sucker love is known to swing. Prone to cling and waste these things. Pucker up for heavens sake. There's never been so much at stake.
I serve my head up on a plate. It's only comfort, calling late. Cuz there's nothing else to do, Every me and every you. Every me and every you, Every Me...he
Every me and every you, Every Me...he
Like the naked leads the blind. I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind. Sucker love I always find, Someone to bruise and leave behind.
All alone in space and time. There's nothing here but what here's here's mine. Something borrowed, something blue. Every me and every you. Every me and every you, Every Me...he
i'm not alone because the t.v.'s on i'm not crazy because i take the right pills every day and rest clean your conscience clear your thoughts with speyside with your grain
salt sweat sugar on the asphalt our hearts littering the topsoil tune in we can get the last call sign up it's the picket line or the parade our lives our coal
i bled the greed from my arm won't they give it a rest now? now? now? now?
@Caro: Das stimmt, aber es geht in dem Fall weniger um die Optik. Placebo erinnert mich auch irgendwie immer an Plazenta. @Nighty: Was, Sleeping Sun oder Every Me... ?

So noch was besonders schönes und dann ab ins Bettchen
Layla - Eric Clapton
What'll you do when you get lonely And nobody's waiting by your side? You've been running and hiding much too long. You know it's just your foolish pride.
Layla, you've got me on my knees. Layla, I'm begging, darling please. Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.
I tried to give you consolation When your old man had let you down. Like a fool, I fell in love with you, Turned my whole world upside down.
Let's make the best of the situation Before I finally go insane. Please don't say we'll never find a way And tell me all my love's in vain.
Die ganze Zeit drüber nachdacht Die Sachen auf den Punkt gebracht Frag´ ich mich ob es genau so ist Auf der Suche nach Entschuldigungen weiß ich nicht, ob ich weiter komm`
Wenn Du die ganze Zeit daneben bist Daneben bist Halbwegs angefangen, eingesperrt und aufgehangen Halbwegs unterwegs zum großen Glück Halbwegs angehalten um alles andere auszuschalten War es doch nur noch ein kleines Stück
Mit Gedanken, die sich aneinander binden Oft versucht etwas Zeit zu schinden Nie gefragt, wie weit es wirklich ist
Immer wieder durch mich selbst geflogen Frag´ ich mich wie weit ich wirklich komm´ Wenn die ganze Zeit daneben ist daneben ist Halbwegs angefangen, eingesperrt und aufgehangen Halbwegs unterwegs zum großen Glück Halbwegs angehalten um alles andere auszuschalten War es doch nur noch ein kleines Stück
Bevor ich hier lange herumsuchen muss, hat hier schon jemand mal den Text von dem neuen Lied von Pink gepostet?
Das Lied finde ich nämlich klasse. Sie betont die Wörter nur so komisch, dass ich beim besten Willen nicht unbedingt drauf komme, von was die Frau da singt.
Ich weiss auch leider nicht, wie es heisst, sonst würde ich ja gogglen.
Dafür hab ich das heut mal wieder gehört. Das ist einfach klasse, allerdings wirkt es nur so richtig, wenn man es hört. Der Wechsel zwischen Krach/Geschrei (Hardrock?) und Melodie/Gesang lässt den Text erst richtig wirken :
Lambretta - Bimbo
Who's she blowing kisses from the catwalk Tell me, I really gotta know Since when did you need another girlfriend Since when, I really gotta know I really gotta know
She's been faking since day one A friendly kiss includes no toungue Who's she, tell me Now she's sleeping in my bed Oh God I wish that she was dead I need to know Who's that bimbo
Who's she looking goofy in a Gucci dress What's that, I really gotta know Which bone in her body should I break first Which one, the bimbo's gotta go The bimbo's gotta go
She's been faking since day one A friendly kiss includes no toungue Who's she, tell me Now she's sleeping in my bed Oh God I wish that she was dead I need to know Who's that bimbo
I know it's sad Sometimes I just lose my head Boy I've been getting so mad I know it's sad Sometimes I just lose my head
I know it's sad Sometimes I just lose my head Boy I've been getting so mad I know it's sad sometimes I just lose my head
She's been faking since day one A friendly kiss includes no toungue Who's she, tell me Now she's sleeping in my bed Oh God I wish that she was dead I need to know
She's been faking since day one A friendly kiss includes no toungue Who's she, tell me Now she's sleeping in my bed Oh God I wish that she was dead I need to know
Now she's sleeping in my bed Oh God I wish that she was dead I need to know Who's that bimbo
Wenn's ein eher ruhiges Lied ist, könnte es 'Eventually' sein (hab ich grad mal bei MTV.de als Live-Stream gehört; hat mir gut gefallen). Ansonsten könnte es auch "Don't Let Me Get Me" sein. Zumindest das wird in den Radios zur Zeit rauf und runter gespielt.
what is wrong with all my friends I know that I am unlike them just another situation don't hold me back I don't look good to them
They always act so dirty they keep themselves so clean why can't they find the answers to the questions that are right in front of me I'm so high, I'm never low I'll hold the sky, never letting go
Let it go no ones ever listening the lines are crossed somewhere between my head is spinning like a top I don't know when this shit is going to stop
[Chorus]
you fill my cup, I'm good to go so shake me up go...go...go...
I'm so high, I'm never low I'll hold the sky, and I'm never letting go go...go...go...
