Lyric of the Day

[NOMBEDES]

Let us spice up the moribund General Topic Tab.  

 

I propose a Lyric of the Day Thread.

 

Topical. Transgressive. Subversive. Cute. Snarky. Profound. Truth to Power.

 

My first submission:   From the Rolling Stones "Living in a Ghost Town"  Chorus 2.

 

 

Chorus 2]
Preachers were all preachin'
Charities beseechin'
Politicians dealin'
Thieves were happy stealin'
Widows were all weepin'
(There's) no beds for us to sleep in
Always had the feelin'
It will all come tumblin' down

 

 

Well I have always thought that the Stones had a keen eye on the Zeit Geist. 

And yes, I always thought that "it will all come tumblin' down".

 

See you tomorrow.

I've heard that for some it was quite amusing to see the RATM's record label executives singing it together with the band during one of their early gigs.. 

 

For me still - the last important rock band. 

 

Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me
 

Motherfucker!

Ugh!
