Quotes from the songs
|
| |
| |
"When you think you've had too much of this life, well
hang on. Everybody hurts, take comfort in your friends. Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. When you feel
like you're alone. No, no, no, you're not alone." (Everybody Hurts) |
| |
|
"I always wonder why did we bother? Distanced from one, deaf to the other.
Oh, but sweetness follows. It's these little things, they can pull you under. Live your life filled with joy
and wonder" (Sweetness Follows) |
| |
|
"T.V. tells a million lies.
The papers terrified to report anything that isn't handed on a presidential spoon..." (Ignoreland) |
| |
|
"Make your money with exploitation. Make it holy illumination.
Say a prayer at every station. Don't forget to ask for mercy. Make your money with a pretty face.
Make it easy with product placement. Make it charged with controversy.... I'm not your magazine, I'm not your
television. I'm not your movie screen. I'm not commodity." (King of Comedy) |
| |
|
"What are you saying. What are you playing. Who are you obeying day out day in?
Baby baby baby. That stuff is driving me crazy. DJs communicate to the masses. Sex and violent classes. Now our
children grow up prisoners. All their lives radio listeners." (Radio Song) |
| |
|
"Every whisper, Every waking hour, I'm choosing my confessions. Trying to keep
eye on you. Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool. ... I thought that I heard you sing. I think I thought I saw
you try. But that was just a dream, try, cry, why try. That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream, dream."
(Losing my Religion) |
| |
|
"Everyone around. Love them, love them. Put it in your hands. Take it, take
it. There's no time to cry. Happy, happy. Put it in your heart where tomorrow shines." (Shiny Happy People) |
| |
|
"Baby's got some new rules, baby says she's had it with me. There's a fly in the
honey and baby's got a baby with me. That's a part, that's a part of me. Left me to love, What it's doing to me. Left
me to love, What it's doing to me. What about me? What about me?" (Me in Honey) |
| |
|
"Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Lock him in uniform and book
burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a motive. Step down,
step down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh oh, this means no fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear! A tournament,
a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline." (The End of the World as we Know it) |
