Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools", said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops fell And echoed In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made And the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls" And whispered in the sounds of silence
^^ I wish they'd make songs such as this more...
Bad lyrics...well let's c...how 'bout Friday ? -_-
Seems kind of redundant with all the mindless popsongs in the thread. I mean, it's not exactly like anyone was already listening to Britney Spears songs and thinking: "Wow that's some wellwritten and very deep lyrics".
Excerpt from "Work it" by Missy Elliot.
I'd like to get to know ya, so I can show ya Put the pussy on ya, like I told ya Gimme all your numbers so I can phone ya Your girl acting stank then call me ov-ah Not on the bed, lay me on your sofa Call before you come, I need to shave my cho-cha You do or you don't or you will or you won't cha Go downtown and eat like a vul-cha See my hips and my tips don'tcha See my ass and my lips don'tcha Lost a few pounds in my waist for ya This the kinda beat that go wa-ta-ta Ra-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta Sex me so good I say blah-blah-blah Work it! I need a glass of wat-ah Boy oh boy its good to know ya
Seriously, wtf. You can't just make sentences rhyme by putting "ya" behind it. This kind of crap is why I really don't feel like ever touching hiphop with a ten foot pole.

To be fair, I'm fairly sure john lennon was on ecstacy for the entire writing process of this song.

Are you joking me? "Wake up in the morning feelin' like P.Diddy" or "Brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack" "Tik Tok goes the clock by the party don't stop and wo-o-o-o-o"

I've always been quite annoyed with the "is you big enough' Purposely butchering English...not even to make a point, but just to sound ghetto is ridiculous. Now we're going to have kids going around thinking it's ok to say things like "hi, is you feeling today?" >_>;;
