Mine has to be from the Godlike Genius himself:

Now I'm caught in the middle You're next to me I swim with the fishes You come from the sea The dolphins were monkeys That didn't like the land Should I be walking the beach Then I'd be holding your hand Yeah!

wow. i was just going to post a thread about this myself after listening to scandal's 'warrior' on the radio this morning.

the lyrics in question: 'your eyes touch me physically.'

that's gross. i don't want someone's actual eye touching me. what if they've got pink eye or something? ewww.

Changed my mind, how about this;

Oily Way by GONG !

Now you're here and now you're Gong Now you're back where you belong Meet the wizard of the keys And he'll reveal the mysteries Of Angels' Eggs and Octave Doctors Radio Gnome and Love Projectors Then he'll point up in the sky You will see the Teapots flying Down the Oily Way...

Down the Oily Way you slide Through the inner space you ride Lots and lots of Pot-Head Pixies Ridin' round in Teapot Taxies On the Planet Gong they say If everything goes wrong today Fill your Teapot up with tea Come and take a ride with me Down the oily way...

Oily Way Oily Way - it's not the milky way Oily Way - it's not the only way Oily Way - it's not the English way

Stop ! Wait ! Hey ! Look !

High in the sky, the world you remember Scenes that we dreamed of Time for the end of Hate ! War ! Death !

You big daddy in your big sick city Gotta choose to loose your games now

Now you're here and now you're Gong But this ain't me that sings this song For we the Gong Band it's enough To be the instruments of love On which the Octave Doctors play That we be one and all as one with Gong On earth and find again The joys of going around the bend Down the oily way

Oily Way Oily Way - not the only way Oily Way - it's not the only way Oily Way - it's not the English way

Yeah I shoot from the hip Now listen

Well I’m workin’ it out And I’ve done everything And I can’t reform no Can you feel my sting

it has to be this one:

Up, down, turn around Please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I'll walk alone I'll find my soul as I go home

although after many years i've actually found meaning in it.

I changed my mind. it has to be this one:

On a thousand islands in the sea I see a thousand people just like me A hundred unions in the snow I watch them walking, falling in a row We live always underground It's going to be so quiet in here tonight A thousand islands in the sea It's a shame

And a hundred years ago A sailor trod this ground I stood upon Take me away everyone When it hurts thou

From my head to my toes From the words in the book I see a vision that would bring me luck From my head to my toes To my teeth, through my nose You get these words wrong You get these words wrong Everytime You get these words wrong I just smile

But from my head to my toes From my knees to my eyes Everytime I watch the sky For these last few days leave me alone But for these last few days leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone

i love it.

You say our records are offensive (you’re a douche, you’re a douche) Our messages ain’t right You say we’re gonna label records So our kids can grow up right You fucking whores (let them decide) That’s all you are

Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex drugs, rape These seven words you’re trying to take Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape Right or wrong it’s our choice to make America the beautiful, land of the free Don’t change the words to land of hypocrisy

Now I’m startin’ up a posse (fascist scum, fascist scum) And we’ll damn sure make you see Something that offends you May not be offensive to me You f*cking whores (you fuckin’ whores) That’s all you are

Now you might take offense To a word like fuck or shit (dick!) But you fuckin’ don’t have the right (cunt!) To discriminate me for saying it! You fuckin’ whores (you fuckin’ whores) That’s all you are

So now I’m startin’ up a posse (motherfucker, motherfucker) To fight for freedom of choice To fight for freedom of speech We’re gonna make you hear our voice

And now I don’t do this to shock you (that’s the end, that’s the end) I don’t do this for spite You’ve got the choice, don’t buy it, don’t read it, And don’t say your opinion’s right You f*cking whores (you fuckin’ whores) That’s all you are (cunty, cunty, cunty, cunt)

You know you can’t censor my feelings You can’t censor my thoughts Censorship’s against Everything america stands for You fuckin’ whores (let us decide) That’s all you are (and this ain’t sexist, either)

Well, I wouldn’t say favorite daft lyrics. I got this record ages ago from someone who apparently didn’t know me at all.

Here’s just a taste (no pun intended) of the lyrics.

I Eat Cannibal, feed on animal Your love is so edible to me, I eat cannibals I eat cannibal, it's incredible You bring out the animal in me, I eat cannibals

"I woke up this morning and the DJ playing that song. Now whatcha gonna do?"

I suppose I am going to listen to your Fubu wearing bling bling ass sing about it.

S'gotta be Sultans of Ping FC.. 'Where's me Jumper?'

I make no apology for posting in full. Daft, yes. But there is some genius in here somewhere.

My, brother, knows, Karl Marx, He met him eating mushrooms in the peoples park, He said 'What do you think about my manifesto?' 'I like a manifesto, put it to the test-o.'

Took it straight down to meet the anarchist's party. I met a groovy guy, he was arty farty, He said 'I know a little latin man a cus man a kai' I said 'I don't know what it means' he said 'neither do I'

Eat natural foods, bathe twice daily, Fill your nostrils up with gravy. Don't drink tea and don't drink coffee. Cover your chin in yorkshire toffee.

Dancing in the disco, bumper to bumber, Wait a minute, where's me jumper, ( x4 )

Dancing at the disco, bumper to bumber, Wait a minute, where's me jumper ? ( x5 ) Oh no. Dancing at the disco, go, go, go. Dancing at the disco, oh no, oh no, oh no. Dancing at the disco, go, go, go. Dancing at the disco, oh no, oh no. It's alright to say things can only get better, You haven't lost your brand new sweater. I know I had it on when I had my tea, And I'm sure I had it on in the lavatory. Oh no. Dancing in the disco, go, go, go. Dancing in the disco, oh no, oh no. Dancing in the disco, bumper to bumper, Wait a minute, where's me jumper ? ( x5 ) It's alright to say things can only get better, You haven't lost your brand new sweater. Pure new wool, and perfect stitches, Not the type of jumper that makes you itches Oh no. Dancing in the disco, go, go, go. Dancing in the disco, oh no, oh no. And my mother, will be so, so angry. And my brother, will be so, so angry. And my girlfriend, will be so, so angry. And my dog, will be so, so angry. Cos I was dancing at the disco, bumper to bumper. Wait a minute, where's me jumper ( x5 ) Oh no !

Foxtrot Unifrom Charlie Kilo Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

Marinate the nether rod In the squish mitten

Power drill the yippee bog With the dude piston

Pressure wash the quiver bone In the bitch wrinkle

Cannonball the fiddle cove Ooh la la With the pork steeple

I still like this song because it is so bubblegum pop-ish. But it does have daft lyrics. "Nobody undoes me like the thought of you can do" and "men would walk the plank for me and set themselves on fire"! :laugh:

Everybody Loves Me But You Sung by Juliana Hatfield on her album Hey Babe

Well I wake up every morning and the first thing that I say Is that I hope that I can make it through another lonely day I'm afraid I might explode if I keep going on this way People always notice me wherever I go They think I'm lucky but they don't really know Beauty and brains are all that I've got I've got a cold cold bed and a broken heart, a broken heart

Everybody loves me, everyone but you But nobody undoes me like the thought of you can do They search my eyes but I don't know why 'Cos all I ever do is cry Everybody loves me but you

Girls wanna be me so they can pick and choose They figure out of ten men there's no way that they can lose Men would walk the plank for me and set themselves on fire What do they see in me that isn't sad and tired, tired I could fill my life with people who wanna be with me Do like when they say there's other fish in the sea There's a world out there and a million things to do But what do I care if it doesn't include you, you

Everybody loves me, everyone but you But nobody undoes me like the thought of you can do They search my eyes but I don't know why 'Cos all they ever do is cry Everybody loves me

A cold cold bed and a broken heart A cold cold bed and a broken heart
