View Full Version : Seth's Song of the Day
is "Fortunate Son" by Credence Clearwater Revival
gotta love the musical groove and song lyrics...
what's your song of the day?
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Yeah, the red, white, and blue
When the band plays 'Hail To The Thief'
Yeah, they'll point the cannon at you
It ain't me, it ain't me
I'm no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Well, they help themselves, yeah
When the taxman comes to the door
House looks a like a rummage sale
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Yeah, when they send you down to war
Well, when you ask them how much you should give
Yeah, it's always more, more, more
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no CIA's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I'm no fortunate one
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son
Take it away...

For the Longest Time - Billy Joel
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for
Who knows how much further we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time
I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself
Hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time
one of the best singing songs ever :)

:: Things Mean a Lot Lyrics ::
Red House Painters
a descending climb
my feet can't make the hill
to the top where your house hides
tomorrow she comes
the one who i've sworn and broke
loyalty
to take your place
in the bed next to me
you threaten to make me dead
and none of this will matter
or surface again
scares you to know that we won't be
watching the same sun
or brooding the same thoughts
in the same part of the world
scares me how you get older
how you forget about each other
things mean a lot at the time
don't mean nothing later
yeah this one works for me today - tonight - forever - tomorrow - yesterday -

great stuff man
by john lennon
As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can't really function you're so full of fear,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
There's room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
A working class hero is something to be.
A working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me,
If you want to be a hero well just follow me...

You Shit Me To Tears..
The Tenants
There’s a little man and he sticks in my mind
He's a pain in the arse and he seems to find
Every bone in my body with an axe to grind,
All I've got to say about it.
You shit me to tears, am I making this clear,
Just give me a break,
For fuck's sake, for fuck's sake
He's got a big car he drives real fast
But you can’t see where your going with your head up your arse
His voice is kinda muffled cause it's full of shit,
All I've got to say about it.
You shit me to tears, am I making this clear,
Just give me a break,
for fuck's sake, for fuck's sake.
My little Dougie, how you’ve grown so tall,
You've grown into a painful, know-it-all.
I'd like to shove your head into a barbwire fence,
But you'd probably tell me all about it.
You shit me to tears, am I making this clear,
Give me a break, For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake,
For fuck's sake………………
Just keep on swearing all the way home.
