What lyric should I put on my U2 shirt?

[Lynz778]

Any ideas?

 

[Axver]

I've been intending to make a shirt with "We thought we had the answers, it was the questions we had wrong" written on it for quite a while.

 

[Lynz778]

hey, nice! I guess in the end its a lyric that means something to you. I have heard some absoltuly awesome ones, bu when it comes to choosing they all seem to run away.

 

[Axver]

Whenever I'm in need of U2 lyrics and everything seems to have escaped my mind, I just look up the lyrics on a site like U2Wanderer.org (yes, lyrics are back!) and start searching in albums I know to be lyrically brilliant until I find something I'm looking for.

Really, it depends what you want to say. Personally, I want to make some sort of political or insightful statement, hence why I purchased the 'All warfare is based on deception' shirt from U2.com a few days ago. But of course, not everyone wants shirts like those I want.

Any ideas?

I was thinking of doing this. Here are some I was considering:

"Ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba ba (Miami!)"

"I had the universe decoded, then the atom split"

"Take this heart and make it break"

"Too much is not enough"

"POPTART"

 

[bedouin fire]

what about "take this shirt, polyester white trash made in nowhere"?

 

[Canadiens1131]

hadn't though of that, appropriate

 

[Lynz778]

Hey I really like...Take this heart and make it break and Take this shirt polyester white trash made in no where. I was also thinking...Lift me up out of these blues/tell me something true

 

[intedomine]

"With a mouth full of teeth. I'll eat all your friends!"

 

[Aardvark747]

"With a mouth full of teeth. I'll eat all your friends!"

Lovely stuff!

 

[BVS]

How about "I liked the sound of my own voice"








so
F.O.A.D.

 

[MsMofoGone]

what about "take this shirt, polyester white trash made in nowhere"?

or how about....

"Take my shirt, go on, take it off me"
"You can tear it up, if you can tie me down.."

 

[Numb1075]

don't piss in the drain
don't make a will

Does love light up your christmas tree?

What are we gonna do when it's all been said, no new ideas in the house and every book has been read?

Seriously, I'd choose anything from The Fly or one word: beLIEve

 

[elciojg]

My idea: the words "IN THE HEART" below the HTDAAB target with the Clarendon font. Black or gray t-shirt...

 

[Pero]

Don't use lyrics, use these:
"Shirt"
"Poptart"
"Don't stare"

 

[beLIEve]

Walk On

It's a Beautiful Day (Don't let it get Away!)

Unos Dos Tres Catorce!

Just give me what I want, and no one gets hurt

Of Science and the Human Heart, there is no limit

The songs are in your eyes, I see them when you smile

Love and Peace or Else

Everywhere you go you shout it, you don't have to be shy about it

Even better than the real thing

If you want to kiss the sky better learn how to kneel

We're One, but we're not the same, we get to carry each other

Far Away, So Close

Lookin' for a sound that's gonna drown out the world

Desire

Midnight is where the day begins

Dream out loud

Don't cheat, compete

Don't miss the one beat

Too much is not enough

I've found what I'm looking for

I believe in Kingdom Come where all the colors bleed into One

Running to Stand Still

After the Flood all the colours came out

In the Name of Love

Up through a spiral staircase to a Higher Ground

This is not a rebel song...this is Sunday, Bloody Sunday!

(Another) Battle's just begun...theirs many lost, tell me who has won?

Out of Control

Two Hearts beat as One

How long to sing this song?

Gloria In Te Domine

If you walk away walk away, I will Follow

I'm out of Control

Will it be too late, you can't fight fate?

A day without me

Another time, Another place

Is that all?

I gotta go, I'm runnin' out of change...there's a lot of things if I could I'd rearrange

I had a silly little idea to take a shirt and soil it up pretty good (with blood, horse manure, etc.) and print 'Take this shirt and make it clean!' on the front.

 

[pepokiss]

I'm planning on doing a shirt that says

U2 on the front, but with a banned circle... like where it says "don't park"

and in the back says THE LARRY MÜLLEN JR BAND

 

[Lynz778]

I think Trying to throw your arms around the world is good. Wow so many great ideas! It's gonna take me weeks to decide!

You better hope people at the shows see the back of your shirt, or you might get the shit beat out of you.

I Will Follow

 

[imogen]

In all seriousness, I really like "Tell me something true"

Has a U2 reference, but it will really stick in people's minds after and get them thinking. I bet if you wore it to a party or a club, you would get some really interesting replies!

Well.... what would your answer be?

 

[stray dog]

The rebel in me would have you put "what a f****d up world it is too"

 

[-macphisto-]

I just made a shirt, I have the U2 War with a RED Flag
And on the back I have "In my dreams I was drowning my sorrows, but my sorrows they learned to swim" Its sweet!

 

[lemon_vr6]

my gf is making a shirt too...but hers is yellow and on the back it says "she wore lemon" and on the front it has a lemon....
