'Cause when love is gone, there's always justice.
And when justice is gone, there's always force.
And when force is gone, there's always Mom. Hi Mom!

Why do I smile
At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye?"

I'm gonna change this thread's title to something more appropriate. I'm sure the OP won't mind (PM me if you do).

On that note...

Quote:

A child is born with no state of mind
Blind to the ways of mankind
God is smiling on you but he's frowning too
Because only God knows what you'll go through
You'll grow in the ghetto, living second rate
And your eyes will sing a song of deep hate
The places you're playin', where you stay
Looks like one great big alley way
You'll admire all the number book takers
Thugs, pimps, pushers and the big money makers
Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens
And you wanna grow up to be just like them, huh,
Smugglers, scrambles, burglars, gamblers
Pickpockets, peddlers even panhandlers
You say: "I'm cool, I'm no fool!"
But then you wind up dropping out of high school
Now you're unemployed, all non-void
Walking 'round like you're Pretty Boy Floyd
Turned stickup kid, look what you've done did
Got sent up for a eight year bid
Now your manhood is took and you're a may tag
Spend the next two years as a undercover fag
Being used and abused to serve like hell
Till one day you was found hung dead in a cell
It was plain to see that your life was lost
You was cold and your body swung back and forth
But now your eyes sing the sad, sad song
Of how you lived so fast and died so young
Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head
It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder how I keep from going under
It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder how I keep from going under

Uh huh huh...huh

I love this song because it's just outrightly goofy and fun...

Regurgitator - My Friend Robot

I got a brand new friend, he's a robot
and he is my man, and he's megawatt
he doesn't pretend
never lies, never cheats, never steals from me

I trust nobody else with my secrets
I can depend on his sequence
Logical patterns i trust in his hard drive, relax, I can unwind

I got a friend, and he's a robot man (robot man)
I got a friend, and he's a computer man (computer man)

I know there are some humans who can't know
there is nobody so day-glow
constant companion, who knows all the action, can calculate fractions

And he is zeros and ones and i know this
He is not flesh and he can't kiss
But who needs humans when humans get angry and humans get ugly

I got a friend, and he's a robot man (robot man)
I got a friend, and he's a computer man (computer man)

I got the greatest friend, he's a robot
Always begins, just non-stop
computer language, while making a sandwich, converting the average

And he is always such fun, and he's number one
He's taking the time and he can run
right through the night and he never sleeps and he never lies down

I got a friend, and he's a robot man (robot man)
I got a friend, and he's a computer man (computer man)

I love the lyrics to this song because while they are goofy they are played with a completely straight face in a cool rock song.

The Barstool Prophets

The Last of the Big Game Hunters.

I have heard dandelions
Roaring out in my backyard.
A direct approach is dangerous
Until you're sure they've
dropped their guard.
You'd be better off to wait
Until the brutes go for the bait
And when they can't anticipate
Is when you pounce and break their necks.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.

I have spied tiger-spiders
On the prowl along my fence.
But the speed at which they travel
Makes a chase much too intense.
So you set your traps with care,
Scattering them here and there,
Hoping for a leg to snare
(And with eight, the odds
are in your favour.)
Watch out they can maim
Even with a leg left lame.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.

There is one great adversary
That consumes my thoughts foremost.
You see, a dragonfly breathes fire,
So its not safe to get too close.
But its hard to be aware
Of them appearing from nowhere
As they swoop down through the air.
I might just need a rocket-launcher.
Not even scalding flame
Could make me shake my aim.
Sure, some call me insane...
But danger is my middle name.

Lawn Dart by Ed's Redeeming Qualities

It was the 3rd of July & the weather was fine
Ed bought the hot dogs, the croquet set was mine
But the red ball was missing & three mallets were bent
Ed suggested lawn darts so to K-Mart we went

We looked by the yard games & we looked by the grills
But we couldn't find lawn darts by high water or hill
We talked to the sales clerk but she started to cry
She said they're off the shelves now & she told us both why

Chorus:
A kid was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
Her dad didn't see her & that's the worst part
She was was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
So they're now off the shelves at the K-Mart

Well we both felt so bad that we gave up the search
Ed went to bed & I went to church
Now we never grill hot dogs & we don't play yard games
Since we heard that sad story things just aren't the same

A kid was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
Her dad didn't see her & that's the worst part
She was was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
So they're now off the shelves at the K-Mart
