'I'm serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer'

Snap

Apologies for the length of this particular post, but the whole song (and not just a few lyrics), is rather disturbing, so I thought I'd post it in it's entirety.

"OBSESSION" by Punishment of Luxury from their album Laughing Academy (1979)


All the best girls belong to somebody else through a window.
I've seen it all before up here in the grey of my room -
"I'm watching every move you make.
I'm watching every breath you take"
With my park-bench eye I see them
all go by imagining so
much more all through the day
till the moon comes-
"watching every move you make,
clock-watching, passing you by.
We're laughing at you.
We're pointing your way"
-I MUST BE STRONG-
"We're laughing at you, we know about
games you play you know what to say"
-I'VE GOT TO BE STRONG-
Now the days died, time to slip outside.
I watch a girl say goodbye to her friends.
I'll follow and think what to say-
"Stop thinking time will fly for you.
Stop thinking.
You know what to do"
I could hold her soft white hand and
make her understand me
but I know how that story ends.
She'd toss her head and quickly walk away-
"Just do it. Now's your chance to show.
Just do it, you know you can!
We're laughing at you, we're pointing your way"
(I MUST BE STRONG)
We're laughing at you we know all about
your games you know what they say
(I'VE GOT TO BE STRONG)

But I had to get you all by yourself because I want you all for myself.
If I saw you with anyone else I'd break up into pieces.
You make me feel so stupid, I've always been so shy.
Anyone can tell you I wouldn't hurt a fly but I feel so far above you
you'll be easy to make love to, even if it means You have to die die die
and I'll kiss you as you're lying in the mud I'll kiss your mouth
And wipe away the blood
I'll take you home an kiss you in the night when you're cold
I'll kiss you when I'm helpless and I'm feeling 2 years old feeling 2 years old

YOU'RE BACK IN A ROOM
I did no wrong:
THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU
BANG INSIDE YOUR HEAD
YOU STILL HEAR HER SAY:
-I say I did no wrong.

She's dead (It wasn't me who did it) She's dead.
It must have been somebody else. She's dead.
Look at me. I am a baby.
She's dead, No she's not she's only sleeping
WAKE UP WAKE UP!!
Shesdeadshesdeadshesdeadshesdead
Shesdeadshesdead I didn't do it
It only seems to happen with a corpse or a dream
Dead bodies don't betray you. They never try to scream

Many Beatles lyrics- and a fair few Zep lyrics too.

Only the Zeppelin could have got away with 'Sick Again'......

If theres a bustle in your hedgerow dont be alarmed now, its just a spring clean for the May queen.

Stairway to Heaven

Even better later on in that track where it says;

'If you listen very hard, the truth will come to you at last'
............now if you have this on vinyl and play it BACKWARDS..........it says 'Here's to my Sweet Satan'

Have'nt mastered it on CD yet..............that Jimmy Page, the little devil!!

I've heard that if you play Stairway to Heaven backwards, it sounds out as I love Satan.

Most Pink Floyd lyrics are weird,but the boys,especially Syd Barrett (god rest his soul) were on the funny stuff whilst writing their lyrics.

The Dark Side of the Moon album synchronises with the Wizard of Oz film if you start the album on the third roar of the MGM lion. And not even the Floyd can explain why.

Yup,i heard that as well.Pink Floyd we're quality.

Anyways,this thread is meant to be about weird lyrics.

Anything to do with Gangsta Rap?.I sure as hell can't understand them.
Ya get me,respec bro !laugh!

Early stuff by Dr Hook. Like freakers ball and pennecillin penny

Good call for the 'Sprout earlier, but they're up against The Fall:

There is no culture is my brag,
Your taste for bullshit reveals a lust for a home of office
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
Where are the obligatory niggers?
HEY THERE FUCKFACE!!
HEY THERE FUCKFACE!!
There are twelve people in the world
The rest are paste
