Rewrite Mercy:

[Clawgrabber]

Now, for fun and only for fun,

I understand that a lot of people have a problem with the lyrics:

I'm ripping the stitches
You have 2 hands to rub
I'm digging the ditches
of someone elses love (luck)

or whatever...

so I CHALLENGE YOU TO REWRITE IT AND MAKE IT BETTER, SUCKERS!!!

okay, i'll give it a shot

The mob's killing the snitches
Cos' they're too dangerous
And pimping the bitches
I drive a pickup truck

it's sort of a country and wester gangster rap song...

that's gangster, not gangsta, with tuxedos and tommy guns. Thus the reference to the mob. "Yo Tommy, We gotsta whack this stool pigeon!"

Jack and Jill went up a hill
To smoke a little leaf
Jack got high, pulled down his fly
And Jill said "Where's the beef?"

 

[Axver]

Actually, I must say that's my favourite part of Mercy. It's the over-use of metaphors in the verses that bugs me.

 

[the tourist]

My favourite line is "We're binary code. A one and a zero."

[Zoots]

Mercy kicks as it is!

 

[AtomicBono]

your FACE kicks as it is

 

[Zoots]

That too.....

 

[AtomicBono]

That too.....

damnit, sometimes I try to use "your face" as an insult, and it JUST DOESN'T WORK.

 

[Zoots]

 

[Bonochick]

My favourite line is "We're binary code. A one and a zero."

I love that line too. It's like geek love.

It does sound a bit Bon Joviish with all the metaphores I agree. I love the song though regardless.

 

[BlackElectric]

"your mom" works much better

 

[Lila64]

"You wanted violins, but you got Nero"



what the hell does that mean???







EDIT: Nevermind... I researched... this is what it means...

 

[chiso]

Oh, and my favorite part:


"And happiness is for
Those who don't really need it"

 

[FitzChivalry]

I love the line: "If you are ice/I'm water" Because he loves the person he's singing to so much, but yet (since ice melts in water) by his very being, he destroys the thing he loves the most.

It just breaks your heart. I think it's a very powerful lyric . . . and so succinct.

 

[*sofia*]

^ I love that line too.

And I have to say once again that your name, FitzChivalry, tells me that you have excellent taste in books and it makes me very happy because not a lot of people know that name

 

[FitzChivalry]

Thank you, Sofia. Yeah, I love FitzChivalry. He's a survivor.
