I like his lyrics on 'Movement': 'I saw some children dance, I saw my life in a trance' and 'I see some people look out on me, I hope they like what they see'.

To be given your sight Hide in a long peaceful night A nervous bride for your eyes A fractured smile that soon dies A love that's wrong from your life and soul A savage mind had begun Hello, farewell to your love and soul Hello, farewell to your soul

Oops, that wasn't Barney was it? Best New Order lyrics anyway. Unless you count 'Ceremony' or 'In A Lonely Place'. Oops, they weren't Barney either... :banghead:

I've always liked the Vanishing Point chorus...

'My life ain't no holiday, I've been to the point of no return, I've seen what a man can do, I've seen all the hate of a woman too'

There goes a bitter man........:nod:

Your country is a wonderful placeIt pales my England into disgraceTo buy a drink there is so much more reasonableI think I'll go there when it gets seasonable...

That last rhyme is pure GOLD in its awkwardness.

Then a fight breaks on your street , you lose another broken heart in al and of meat. My friend took his final breath. Now I know the perfect kiss is the kiss of death.

Brilliant! :thumb: :spit:

Love the "You lose another broken heart in al and of meat"! :)

I'm sitting here alone at night My sleepless eyes are open wide What do you want me to say What we had has gone away

The sky is high the road is long Show me what I should have done What do you want me to do Take it all away from you

Without you they'll never know Without you my life won't flow Without you they'll never show Without you the night won't go Without you I'm left alone Without you I'm on my own Without you I lay in pain Without you I've gone insane

He told me to close my eyes My gift would be a great surprise I saw hatred in his eyes He never meant to hurt me

Oh God Johnny don't point that gun at me There's so many ways our lives have changed But please I beg don't do this to me Johnny you keep on using me Can I change my life for any price? Oh Johnny won't you listen to me?

This is a song about an innocent Who died at the hands of a desperate man He trusted those who he thought he knew He trusted those who he looked up to I'll never forget the joy in his face He'd laugh and he'd cry and he'd ruin my place He'd drive me crazy, and he'd drive me wild I used to scream and shout all day long

Now I hope you know this song Is about a child who now has gone And other children like him, too Abused and used by what adults do So don't tell me about politics Or all the problems of our economics When you can't look after what you can't own You scream and shout all day long
