List a dozen songs that you think have some of the best-written lyrics around(not necessarily most meaningful, but very well-written). Ranking is optional. List your favourite line or phrase from each song. Then tag any number of people you want to do the same. Not more than 1 song per band/artiste, and only English songs (no translations from other languages).
1.Walkin' on the Sun - Smash Mouth
This is a love attack I know it went out but it's back.
It's just like any fad it retracts before impact
And just like fashion it's a passion for the with it and hip
2.Throw it Away - Juke Kartel
I see the monsters causing trouble in my headache again (wa oh ah oh)
hallucinations of a nature making me wanna scream aloud?
a triple number
3.Runaway Train - Soul Asylum
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
4.Real World - Matchbox Twenty
I wonder what it's like to be the rainmaker
I wonder what it's like to know that I made the rain
I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on everyone
5.Grace Kelly - Mika
I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you walk out the door!
6.You Get What You Give - New Radicals
Wake up kids
We've got the dreamers disease
Age 14 we got you down on your knees
So polite, you're busy still saying please
Fri - enemies, who when you're down ain't your friend
Every night we smash their Mercedes - Benz
First we run and then we laugh till we cry
7.No Regrets - Robbie Williams
I didn't lose my mind it was
Mine to give away
8.The Take Over, The Breaks Over - Fall Out Boy
They say your head can be a prison
Then these are just conjugal visits
9.Chasing Pavements - Adele
Should i give up,
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place should i leave it there?
10.1979 - Smashing Pumpkins
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
11.What a Scene - Goo Goo Dolls
And when you're looking for truth on the cover of a magazine
How does it feel?
When you found out what you're not going to be
Oh, yeah
12.Motorcycle Drive By - Third Eye Blind
And I'm sleeping on the couch,
When I came to visit you,
That's when I knew, That I could never have you,
I knew that before you did,
Still I'm the one who's stupid,
And there's this burning,
Like there's always been,
I've never been so alone,
And I've never been so alive.
