Silly Barney lyrics in 4 lines or less

I got the inspiration for this listening to run wild in my car so I'll start with:

"I'm gonna live, till I die I'm gonna live, to get high."

From, Will

from my home i travelled far i drove in my stolen car when it broke down i kissed the ground (cuz i don't kiss when you're around)

state of the nation

When you are alone at night You search yourself for all the things that you believe are right If you give it all away You throw away your only chance to be here today Then a fight breaks out on your street You lose another broken heart in a land of meat My friend he took his final breath Now I know the perfect kiss is the kiss of death

Please let me in 'cause my house is falling down There's trouble all over town Let me begin and I'll tell you a story How Dracula hunted me down

...

We don't need to shout Or make a fuss We are devout

i don't need a doctor to tell me i'm full of juice.

"you've caught me at a bad time, so why don't you piss off"

or

"I don't wanna be like other people are Don't wanna own a key, don't wanna wash my car Don't wanna have to work like other people do I want it to be free, I want it to be true"

It's a jungle and I freakHear me talk but never speakAnd it may all be too lateBut I've no passion for this hate

King For A Day, by Electronic

ahh yes, thats just reminded me why i dont listen to it. thanks.

I'VE BEEN WIDE EYED BUT CUOLDN'T SEE I STAND ACCUSED OF BEING ME.

WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING? I CAN'T THINK OF EVERYTHING I DON'T KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS OR WHO I'M TALKING TO

BELOW THE SURFACE OF THIS DAY I NEED IT LIGHT INSIDE DIMENSION LIES ANOTHER SACRIFICE ONCE OUT OF REACH,WE NEVER SPEAK,WE NEVER COMPROMISE AS THEY TURNED TO GOLD THE EDGES FROZE AND SEEMED TO TURN TO ICE

Originally posted by Spotnick Love is in the air that supports the eagle?And all Jesus reference in Run Wild, I believe this is the only New Order song talking about religion.. (except Flicker from Electronic!)

In Joy Division just can remember Colony : god in his wisdom took you by the hand,god in his wisdom made you understand...

"I check upon the scores and listen to The Corrs Behind closed doors"

AND I NEVER COULD BELIEVE IT THE WAY YOU TOLD ME I WAS WRONG IF I'M RIGHT AND IF YOU'RE SINFUL THEN FOR GOD'S SAKE I WAS WRONG

It takes years to find the nerve To be apart from what you've done To find the truth inside yourself And not depend on anyone

"The sea was very rough, it made me feel sick" "But I like that kinda stuff, it beats arithmetic"

Surprised no one posted that yet.

From, Will

Sorry but this is a Brilliant lyric....perfect for those days when you are either:

1. so fu**ed up you dont know where you are or what your are doing

2. So hung over you dont remember the night before and are confused about where you are now

3. Fighting with your woman about either 1 or 2 above....

I love this lyric....

Why so he did, oops.

From, Will

"Your country is a wonderful place It pales my England into disgrace To buy a drink that is so much more reasonable I think I'll go there when it gets seasonable"

It's dumb but I love it.

but of course, the granddaddy of them all:

i think you are a pigyou should be in a zoo.

brilliant.

Of course I don't know if it counts as 4 lines but......

ROCK THE SHACK ROCK THE SHACK ROCK THE SHACK ROCK THE SHAAAAAACCCCKKKKKK!

From, Will

i've got a nail in my head and it don't hurt me no more.

I always thought of you as my brick wall built like an angel six feet tall

I wonder if the beer, rather than the sea, was making Barney sick? Perhaps he threw up into the ocean.. :barf:

when i was a very small boy, very small boys talked to me.

i like barney's lyrics a lot, actually - particularly how malleable they are to various "states of mind." Bryan

actually - maybe it's "when i was a very young boy, very young boys talked to me."

i think i've heard him sing it both ways. there's that malleability again. Bryan

"Every time I think of you I turn into a fat pink blob That stinks of poo"

Barney, singin' BLT when he's 84 then... :D

How about:

From my head to my toes, to my teeth through my nose, you get these words wrong...

or, later:

From my head to my toes, from my knees to my eyes, Every time I watch the skies..

this one is silly, but i think it has more to do with Barney's inflection and delivery:

"This world's out of reach, but I don't want it the people are creeps that, live here on it it's always the same, it's not gonna change when we go to school, with Sadam Hussein"

there's a jesus reference in the same song:

I'd cry all night, if I could change it. ask Jesus Christ, could he arrange it?

this is one of my favorite lyrics from Barney...

He saves the best ones for live tracks.....

"Bob Dylan was a poet, but he didn't know it And he had a big nose, he had a big nose" (Do The Ostrich)

"I prefer fur hats to hairy twats But your hairy twat is like a fur twat" (Face Up)

"We flew in from Manchester today We held our hands it was if we were all so gay" (Skullcrusher)

"From my heart to the sea My voice will be with me And when this finally stops, the synthesiser will be in tune Our love is like the flowers....." (The Village)

"When I walked through the door my wife was laid there on the floor She was sucking cocks a four all fookin' hard And I said you dirty bastard what are you doing on the floor Sucking big fat fookin' cocks in her fookin' mouth" (Love Vigilantes)

Plenty more......

Or "When you reached out in your sleep and you felt my big fat cock! " from Lonesome Tonight 1985. The cock thing seems quite popular!

the whole john barnes rap in world of motion coming to think of it, the whole of world of motion

They'll always hit you and hurt you Defend and attack Theres only one way to beat them Get round the back Catch me if you can Cos' I'm the England man And what you're looking at Is the master plan We ain't no hooligans This ain't a football song Three lions on my chest I know we can't go wrong

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Barney's vocal improvisations are side splitting. Good idea just to compile a cdr of these alone (in hindsight maybe a bit anorakish

In Rennes, France 1985, before As It Is.....

"This one's called Fromage et Petit Pois".

I have nothing to add to the below...

Yeah, but on Electronic Ecstacy, he says: When I was a very small boy, Michael Jackson played with me. Now that we've grown up together, He's playing with me.

Yeah, really original, Barney.

Yeah, really original, Barney.

Didn't he sing "he's playing with Jordy C" on one similar version of this verse ?

this is one of my favorite lyrics from Barney...

Yeah man,it's really a great song. I just wanted to show how silly I am:o

Didn't he sing "he's playing with Jordy C" on one similar version of this verse ? He probably did. He messed up on his own messed-up lyrics.

Originally posted by Chris 'Ra ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ...hey'or any line that ends in that f**king pathetic...'Wooh!' (especially if the line is... 'Walk in silence...')

I agree on that. It is very annoying when they playing serious song and he shouts Wooh or starts a whistle.

511 would visually suck balls if it wasn't for barney doin' the corgi, doing that tongue thingy, and shouting out all those wooh!'s. it's all part of that live NO charm...
