Name that Lyric Part 2

[Kieran McConville]

Alright, I just thought I might resurrect this name-the-lyric game from last night. To bad version 1 (or was it #2?) fell down in a heap because we were all too stupid to pick Dr Teeth's lyric, but what the hell.

So, here goes:

"Oh, can't anybody see
we've got a war to fight
never find our way
regardless of what we say
how can it feel so cold..."

 

[Secret Squirrel]

Is it Motley Crue?

heheh

 

[Secret Squirrel]

Perhaps some Beastie Boys??

heheh

 

[Kieran McConville]

Not even close. A hint: think mid-90's, creepy-crawly trip hop. Oh, and they're named after the seaside town they come from.

 

[Pate20]

This is easy: "Roads" by Portishead. Great song. One of the best ones I've ever heard.

Now check this out:

"wrap me up in always, and drag me in with maybes
your innocence is treasure, your innocence is death
your innocence is all i have
breathing underwater, and living under glass
and if you spin your love around
the secrets of your dreams
you may find your love is gone
and is not quite what it seemed"


------------------
I let the melody shine
Let it cleanse my mind
I feel free now

 

[Tobe]

Thru the eyes of ruby, Smashing pumpkins..

 

[Tobe]

ok, here's a new one:

love and hate, get it wrong
she cut me right back down to size
sleep the day, let it fade
who was there to take your place

Come Down-Bush


I know some day you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
in somebody else's sky
but why, why, can't it be mine

"we're free to fly the crimson sky...the sun won't melt our wings tonight..."

 

[bono_man]

"we dont refer to the past
in showing what we've done.
the generation gap
means the war is never won..."

------------------
"we're free to fly the crimson sky...the sun won't melt our wings tonight..."

Affirmative may be justified
take from one give to another
the goal is to be unified
take my hand be my brother

I stand in a wide flat land
No shadow or shade of a doubt
Whore the megaphone man
Met the girl with her hand that's
Covering most of her mouth

Cupboard is empty
We really need food
Summer is winter
And you always knew

Collide a clause, unremitting can you cram?

I know you're dumb as paint.

Angie, are you also this Squirrel character?

I'm starting to wonder. The mannerisms are strikingly similar.
