Lyrical Response

[muppy]

Madman drummer bummers
Indians in the summer
With a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps
His way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder
Feeling kinda older
I tripped a merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing
Sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

[Bill from NYC]

And coming off the line when the light turns green (deuce coupe)
Well, she blows them out of the water like you never seen (deuce coupe)
I get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer (deuce coupe)
When I get rubber in all four gears

She's my little deuce coupe
You don't know what I got
(My little deuce coupe)
(You don't know what I got)
She's my little deuce coupe
You don't know what I got
(My little deuce coupe)
(You don't know what I got)

[WhoTom]

When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer.
And I can't get my car out of second gear.

Running my rig around ninety-five,
Rockin' and rollin' in overdrive
My heart's beating like a jackhammer,
It's the midnight ride for the gear jammer

 

Nine long days through twenty-three states,
I gotta see my baby soon you know I just can't wait
The police catch me I'll end up in the slammer,
'Cause the law don't want no gear jammer

[muppy]

Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law, and the law won
I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law, and the law won
I fought the law, and the law won

[WhoTom]

I fight authority, authority always wins
I fight authority, authority always wins
I been doing it, since I was a young kid
I've come out grinnin'
I fight authority, authority always wins

[PastaJoe]

You wake up late for school, man you don't want to go
You ask you mom, please? but she still says, no
You missed two classes, and no homework
But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk

You gotta fight for your right to party

[Bill from NYC]

You thought that you knew where I was and when
Baby, it looks like it's foolin' you again
You thought that you'd got me all staked out
Babe it looks like I've been breaking out

 

I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Who's looking for the source
I'm a dark horse

[gobilz]

Is anybody out there, anybody there
Does anybody wonder, anybody care

Oh, I just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cause baby I'm not

F-f-f-foolin', ah f-f-foolin
F-f-f-foolin', ah f-f-foolin'
Won't you stay with me awhile

[gdabillsfan]

Now your Daddy don't mind, And your Mommy don't mind,

If we have another dance, yeah, Just one more, one more time.

Oh won't you stay, just a little bit longer, Please let me hear you say that you will Say you will

[Bill from NYC]

And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
You know I will
I will

[PastaJoe]

Tell your soul
That it's pure and kind
Tell your heart
To leave all worries behind
Tell your voice
To make each song a prayer
To make it heard
And to fill the air

[WhoTom]

It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken

Perhaps they're better left unsung

I don't know, don't really care

Let there be songs to fill the air

[muppy]

Back in 1991, I wasn't havin' any fun
'Til my roommate said, "Come on and put a brand new record on"
Had a baby on it, he was naked on it
Then I heard the chords that broke the chains I had upon me
Got together with my bros, in some rehearsal studios
Then we played our first rock show
And watched the fan base start to grow
Signed the deal that gave the dough to make a record of our own
The song come on the radio, now people go, this is the song

These are my heart songs
They never feel wrong
And when I wake for goodness sake
These are the songs I keep singing
 

[DD4Bills]

Well, Johnny made a record
Went straight up to number one
Suddenly everyone loved
To hear him sing the song

 

Watchin' the world go by
Surprisin' it goes so fast
Johnny looked around him and said, "Hey
I made the big-time, I made the big-time at last, yeah!"

[PastaJoe]

The king is gone but he's not forgotten (Johnny Rotten, Johnny Rotten)
Is this the story of Johnny Rotten? (Johnny Rotten, Rotten Johnny)
It's better to burn out 'cause rust never sleeps
The king is gone but he's not forgotten

 

[DD4Bills]

The sleep is still in my eyes
The dream is still in my head
I heave a sigh, and sadly smile
And lie a while in bed

[gdabillsfan]

Something's wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White

Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon's fire
And of things that will bite

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

[muppy]

Tight pants and lipstick
She's riding on razor's edge
She holds her own against the boys
Yea, cuts through the crowd just like a wedge
Oh, can you feel the static
So many contacts being made
We've got up front fanatics
Tearing down the barricade
To reach the stage
Can you feel the rage

It's your one way ticket to midnight
 

[Just Jack]

Now it cuts like a knife
But it feels so right
