The Manics are a good band' date=' but lyrics-wise they're atrocious. Pretentious shock-rock drivel at the start of their career, inanities and cliches in their latter years. It's probably a good thing that most of the time you can't make out what Bradfield's singing.[/quote']

I agree with you. But the midpoint was sublime.

pearl jam - black

Hey...oooh...

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay

Were laid spread out before me as her body once did

All five horizons revolved around her soul

As the earth to the sun

Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything

Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds

Of what was everything?

Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside

I'm surrounded by some kids at play

I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear

Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head

I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning

How quick the sun can, drop away

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass

Of what was everything?

All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black

Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll ever be...yeah...

Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star

In somebody else's sky, but why

Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine

Provocation undeclared' date=' like cowards they advance, attacking the unarmed

Campaign of dishonor, calculated violence inflicted on civilians

Narrow-minded wrath, self-righteous anger, acting out intolerance

Damning themselves, accursed adversaries of God-given liberty

Terror, innocent life destroyed by

Cowards, committing crimes, injustice

Empty, nothing to hope for but death

Brainwashed, programmed from birth, to hate

[b']Idiot protests, from luxury of safety, ignorant of facts

Preaching dull inaction, as burning towers fall, shattering the peace

Stab us in the back, awaken our revenge, our appetite to kill

United in grief, we accept your invitation to erase you all

They want to kill the free, the liberated "infidels"

They claim no fear of death, they'll see it soon enough

Suitable response, build a proper case, collect the evidence, discover what they tried to hide

Necessary force, accurate assault, our justified revenge, we'll live to see them die

Extremist factions, bear arms without honor, attacking our public

One Shot, One Kill

Covert involvement, outlaw callow leaders, ignoble denial

One Shot, One Kill

Our captured soldiers, tortured to death, defiled human corpses

One Shot, One Kill

Hundreds confirmed, not one ever saw me

Punishment, requited in blood

Enemies, threats, eliminate them

Reciprocity, I deliver

No escape, I'll find them

Their vain cause, they'll die for their crimes

Ponder judgment of this

Walking corpse with seconds left to live

With this weapon I damn the malignant

Forward the bolt slides into place

High-speed alloy, pierce the hearts of evil

Fucking rats, to rot in obstruction

Approach by stealth, in silence I strike, penetrate all their defenses

Enemy lines, dissected, besieged, annihilation to meet my objective

Sanctioned psy-ops, imminent targets, predatory infiltration

Lethal resolve, warfare command, precision of fire, I'll terminate your life

Fuckin ace, 10 points to the person who can name the band and song.

Dying Fetus - One Shot, One Kill

I win :D

All of 'Good Friends And A Bottle Of Pills' by Pantera:-

"I fucked your girlfriend last night.

While you snored and drooled' date=' I fucked your love.

She called me Daddy. And I called her baby when I

smacked her ass. I called her sugar when I ate

her alive till daylight. And I slept with her all

over me, from forehead to ribcage I dripped her ass.

Sometimes I thought you might be spying, living out some

brash fantasy, but no. You were knocked out. But we were

all knocked out you know. In a way.

I serve too many masters.

We didn't know you'd break the bottle that the magic

came in to use those jagged shards to slit our wrists

and neck. And you'd do it too, you're that kind of dude.

But you wouldn't know what you were doing because

I didn't, your girlfriend could have been a burn

victim, an amputee, a dead body. But god damn I wanted

to fuck.

I'm losing what's left of my fucking mind,

I serve too many fucking masters.

(I told you. I told you motherfucker)

*EDIT*

If it has to be a single line then I guess:

"Fuck you, you cocksucker. Fuck you, you whore."

- Machine Head[/quote']

Good Choice man
