Fairly self-explanatory. Any good ones?
'Disintegration'
Oh I miss the kiss of treachery,
The shameless kiss of vanity,
The soft and the black and the velvety,
Up tight against the side of me,
And mouth and eyes and heart all bleed,
And run in thickening streams of greed,
As bit by bit it starts the need,
To just let go my party piece.
Oh I miss the kiss of treachery,
The aching kiss before I feed,
The stench of a love for a younger meat,
And the sound it makes when it cuts in deep,
The holding up on bended knees,
The addiction of duplicities,
As bit by bit it starts the need,
To just let go my party piece.
But I never said I would stay to the end so I leave you with babies,
And hoping for frequency,
Screaming like this in the hope of the secrecy,
Screaming me over and over and over I leave you
With photographs, pictures of trickery,
Stains on the carpet and stains on the scenery,
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams,
When we both of us knew how the ending would be...
So its all come back round to breaking apart again,
Breaking apart like I'm made up of glass again,
Making it up behind my back again,
Holding my breath for the fear of sleep again,
Holding it up behind my head again,
Cut in deep to the heart of the bone again,
Round and round and round and itscoming apart again,
Over and over and over.
Now that I know that I'm breaking to pieces,
I'll pull out my heart and I'll feed it to anyone,
Crying for sympathy, crocodiles cry,
For the love of the crowd and the three cheers from everyone,
Dropping through the sky through the glass of the roof,
Through the mouth of your eye,
Through the eye of the needle,
Its easier for me to get closer to heaven,
Than ever feel whole again.
I never said I would stay to the end,
I knew I would leave you with babies and everything,
Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity,
Screaming me over and over and over I leave you,
With photographs, pictures of trickery,
Stains on the carpet, stains on the memory,
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams,
When we both of us knew how the end always is...
How the end always is...
Kind regards,

'All You Good Good People'
I feel like I meant something you always say you need more time
Well I'll stay right here and I'll wait for good until I find a love worth mine
Someday you've got it coming it hurts me when I read the signs
So loud and clear that I'll make you glad if I'm leaving first and crying
All you good good people listen to me
You're just about done with the way that you feel
When nothing rings home enough to dig your heels in
You don't have to leave me to see what I mean
All you good good people listen to me
And all I wanna do is find my name upon the line
Before I have to lose this I want time
All you good good people listen to me
You're just about done with the way that you feel
Nothing rings home enough to dig your heels in
You don't have to leave me to see what I mean
Lose all your fears
They are keeping you down
You won't have to fake it while I'm around
All you good good people listen to me
Listen to me..
Listen to me..

Dylan and Reed are probably the best for lyrics as poetry and in my eyes the best currently are Joey Cape and Blake Schwarzenbach. I think I'll pick "Want" by Jawbreaker because I love the lyrics some people will probably think they're horrible.
'Want'
Been staring for a hundred hours
Run down a spiral drain
Keep mouth shut tight
and it isn't right
Three words keep running around my mind
But my tongue is hard to find
I've got to let it go
Because I know
Dark secrets burn their vessel
Tearing out to grab a mouthful
Chunk of heart destroyed by silence
Yell it out before it kills you now
Used to let rumors do my work.
They got around real well.
Now they only hurt.
It's a liar's quirk.
This time I gotta say it straight.
I mean to do some good.
I'm calling out your name
while the chance remains.
Dark secrets burn their vessel.
Tearing out to grab a mouthful.
Chunk of heart destroyed by quiet.
Yell it out before it kills you now.
Let it all out.
I want you.
So now you know where I come from.
My secret's come undone.
My heart revealed my cause.
I'm lying naked at your feet.
Don't crush the heart that beats.
Take me at my word.
It may sound absurd, but
I want you.
"Hey fuck you if you don't like it."

ok here's a weird one that I like lyrically
"Myxomatosis"
The mongrel cat came home
Holding half a head
Proceeded to show it off
To all his new found friends
He said I been where I liked
I slept with who I like
She ate me up for breakfast
She screwed me in a vice
But now
I don't know why
I feel so tongue-tied
I sat in the cupboard
And wrote it down real neat
They were cheering and waving
Cheering and waving
Twitching and salivating like with myxomatosis
But it got edited fucked up
Strangled beaten up
Used in a photo in time magazine
Buried in a burning black hole in devon
I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied
Don't know why
I feel
So skinned alive.
My thoughts are misguided and a little naive
I twitch and I salivate like with myxomatosis
You should put me in a home or you should put me down
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
Yeah no one likes a smart ass but we all like stars
But that wasn't my intention, I did it for a reason
It must have got mixed up
Strangled beaten up
I got myxomatosis
I got myxomatosis
I don't know why I
Feel so tongue-tied

'Elephant Stone'
Burst into heaven
Kissing the cotton clouds
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
I can't stop coming down
Your shrunken head
Looking down on me above
Send me home like an elephant stone
To smash my dream of love
Dreaming till the sun goes down
And night turns into day
Rooms are empty I've got plenty
You could move in right away
It seems like there's a hole
In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams
Down through the heavens
Choke on the cotton clouds
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
I can't stop coming down
Your shrunken head
Looking down on me above
Send me home like an elephant stone
To smash my dream of love
Did your bed and bookshelf go
And run run run away
These four walls saw the rise and fall
And your midnight getaway
Seems like there's a hole
In my dreams
Or so it seems
Yet nothing means anything
Anymore |

Looking out the door
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water
And maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight, you're on my mind so
you never know
Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight?
Child, you know how much I need it.
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away,
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one...
So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return,
Oh, will I ever learn?
Oh, Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late.
Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won't ever come
It's never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles
when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear
That hangs inside my soul forever
Oh, but maybe I'm just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh... lover you should've come over...
Yes, (I) feel too young to hold on
I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind
To see the damage I've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love I'm waiting for you
Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late.

This is such a great thread. I will decide who I like based on what they posted. I am impressed by some so much...especially the ones that are not food-related.
Frank's band is better than your band. Sing it. |

Dress sexy at my funeral
Dress sexy at my funeral my good wife
Dress sexy at my funeral my good wife
For the first time in your life
Wear your blouse undone to here
And your skirt split up to there
Wink at the minister
Blow kisses to my grieving brothers
Dress sexy at my funeral my good wife
And when it comes your turn to speak
Before the crowd
Tell them about how we did it
On the beach with fireworks above us
On the railroad tracks
With the gravel in your back
In the backroom of a crowded bar
And in the very grave yard
Where my body now rests
Dress sexy at my funeral my good wife
For the very first time in your life
Also tell them how I gave to charity
And tried to love my fellow man
As best I could
But most of all don't forget about the time
On the beach
With fireworks above us

Saint Simon
After all these implements and text designed by intellects
So vexed to find evidently there's just so much that hides
And though the saints of us divine in ancient feeding lines
Their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine
I'm trying hard not to pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
Step into the night
Since I dont have the time nor mind to figure out
The nursery rhymes that helped us out and make a sense of our lives
The cruel uneventful state of apathy releases me
I value them but I won't cry if the time was wiped out
I'm trying hard not to give in
Battened down to fair the wind
Read my head, at least pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
Step into the night...
Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing holds a roman candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside
There's no measuring of it
As nothing else is love

I only own Good Will Out, but I love it and am keen to get more. I have to cut down on music expenditure though.

'Cannonball'
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth,
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt,
Still a little bit hard to say whats really going on,
Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness,
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed,
You step a little closer each day, still I can't say what's going on.
Stones taught me to fly,
Love taught me to lie,
Life taught me to die,
So its not hard to fall when you float like a cannonball...
Still a little bit of your song in my ear,
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear,
You step a little closer to me, so close that I can't see what's going on...
Stones taught me to fly,
Love taught me to lie,
Life taught me to die,
So its not hard to fall when you float...
Stones taught me to fly,
Love taught me to lie,
So come on courage, teach me to be shy,
So its not hard to fall and I don't want to scare her,
So its not hard to fall and I don't want to lose,
Its not hard to grow when you know that you just don't know...
Kind regards,

Yeah screw 'em!
Here's some more from the same band. No homage to you this time Cheesy, I'm afraid.
Kissing The Lipless
Called to see if your back
Was still aligned and your sheets
Were growing grass all on the corners of your bed
But you've got too much to wear on your sleeves
It has too much to do with me
And secretly I want to bury in the yard
The grey remains of a friendship scarred
You told us of your new life there
You got someone comin' around
Gluing tinsel to your crown
He's got you talking pretty loud
You berate remember your ailing heart and your criminal eyes
You say you're still in love
If it's true what can be done
It's hard to leave all those moments behind
You tested your metal of doe's skin and petals
While kissing the lipless
Who bleed all the sweetness away

Do You Love Me?
I found her on a night of fire and noise
Wild bells rang in a wild sky
I knew from that moment on
I'll love her till the day that I died
And I kissed away a thousand tears
My lady of the Various Sorrows
Some begged, some borowed, some stolen
Some kept safe for tomorrow
On and endless night, silver star spangled
The bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
She was given to me to put things right
And I stacked all my accomplishments beside her
Still I seemed so obselete and small
I found God and all His devils inside her
In my bed she cast the blizzard out
A mock sun blazed upon her head
So completely filled with light she was
Her shadow fanged and hairy and mad
Our love-lines grew hopelessly tangled
And the bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
She had a heartful of love and devotion
She had a mindful of tyranny and terror
Well, I try, I do, I really try
But I just err, baby, I do, I error
So come find me, my darling one
I'm down to the grounds, the very dregs
Ah, here she comes, blocking the sun
Blood running down the inside of her legs
The moon in the sky is battered and mangled
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?
All things move toward their end
I knew before I met her that I would lose her
I swear I made every effort to be good to her
I made every effort not to abuse her
Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?

Oh cool, nice one Jen.
Waltz #2
First the mic then a half cigarette, singing 'Cathy's Clown'
That's the man she's married to now,
That's the girl that he takes around town
She appears composed, so she is, I suppose,
Who can really tell?
She shows no emotion at all,
Stares into space like a dead china doll,
I'm never gonna know you now, but I'm gonna love you anyhow
Now she's done and they're calling someone such a familiar name
I'm so glad that my memory's remote,
Cause I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note
Here it is, the revenge to the tune
"You're no good,
You're no good you're no good you're no good"
Can't you tell that it's well understood
I'm never gonna know you now, but I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm here today and expected to stay on and on and on
I'm tired
I'm tired
Looking out on the substitute scene
Still going strong
XO, Mom
It's ok, it's alright, nothing's wrong
Tell Mr. Man with impossible plans to just leave me alone,
In the place where I make no mistakes,
In the place where I have what it takes,
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
Kind regards,

Well, I suppose I'll just have to add in one of my all time favorite purty love songs into this here thread...
Think (Let Tomorrow Bee) - By Sebadoh
Could I hold on, or should I hold on to you?
Ask, I'll tell the truth; there's nothing I should hide
And if I move to slow, if you're bored I need to know
I'm weak to hide inside, to force what I don't feel
If all we have is a question, there's no hope to find a future
But something in me cries for you
It feels too real this time
I think I love you, though I don't know what love means
Girl of my dreams, or a friend that one day leaves
Could I trust this when I've lied to myself before?
Will I do it all again to taste what I've imagined we could be?
Look what I've become; this pressure that we feel
In a world of possibilities, this may not prove real
But could we give enough, backed against a wall?
Too close to breathe, but too far to fall
All I ever wanted was to feel you closer to me
And it's sad to feel this resistance
What once before had felt so free
Let tomorrow bee
I can't be so impatient
Pushing every answer, when there isn't any question
Let me feel good now
And though this may have to end, I hope I'm always with you
Honestly your friend
I think I love you

"Scarlover", Maria McKee
Been over this a hundred times
we've talked it to its black end
it begins again and again
there's nothing we can say
My brain has derailed
my hands are benailed
you fall across my body
like a death shroud
Your wound was plain like mine
no ragged edges, well defined
we grew to war like a bloom
reaching toward the light
It felt so brutal
so transdermal
so alive
it felt so alive, felt so alive
Hear the sound
the sick sound of us clicking
feel the skin between us
thicker, thickening
As the first cut relieves, believe me
I'm a scarlover too
and I'm full of scars like you
Scar lover my scar lover
my scar lover my scarlover
Ugly inside of me
taught me of beauty
I wouldn't trade that work of art
For all the silk of perfect skin
perfect skin, perfect skin
I wear it well like the colors
of a tribe of survivors
You dressed me up so fine
my painful, truthful boy
With bold strokes
and rape of soul
you were dazzling, matchless
a legend in your field
And you thought
you could love me just a little
and I used you to test
my aim and precision
I was good
so good I was close to perfection
but you turned the blade on me
And I loved it
I loved it
Scar lover my scar lover
my scar lover my scar, scar, scarlover
Ugly inside of me
taught me of beauty
I wouldn't trade that work of art
For all the silk of perfect skin
perfect skin, perfect skin
I wonder where you are
From her 'Life is Sweet' album |

Who said pop wasn't art :
Kylie Minogue -
Can't get you out of my head
La la la
La la la la la
La la la
La la la la la
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy your loving is all I think about
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy it's more than I dare to think about
La la la
La la la la la
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy your loving is all I think about
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy it's more than I dare to think about
Every night
Every day
Just to be there in your arms
Won't you stay
Won't you lay
Stay forever and ever and ever and ever
La la la
La la la la la
La la la
La la la la la
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy your loving is all I think about
I just can't get you out of my head
Boy it's more than I dare to think about
There's a dark secret in me
Don't leave me locked in your heart
Set me free
Feel the need in me
Set me free
Stay forever and ever and ever and ever
La la la
La la la la la
La la la
La la la la la
I just can't get you out of my head
I just can't get you out of my head
I just can't get you out of my head...

Depeche Mode \ "Sweetest Perfection"
The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldn’t finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind
I stop and I stare too much
Afraid that I care too much
And I hardly dare to touch
For fear that the spell may be broken
When I need a drug in me
And it brings out the thug in me
Feel something tugging me
Then I want the real thing not tokens
The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldn’t finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind
Things you’d expect to be
Having effect on me
Pass undetectedly
But everyone knows what has got me
Takes me completely
Touches so sweetly
Reaches so deeply
I know that nothing can stop me
Sweetest perfection
An offer was made
An assorted collection
But I wouldn’t trade
The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldn’t finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind
Takes me completely
Touches so sweetly
Reaches so deeply
Nothing can stop me.

There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
I'd like to think that all of this constant interaction
Is just the kind of make you drive yourself away
Each simple gesture done by me is counteracted
And leaves me standing here with nothing else to say
Completely baffled by a backward indication
That an inspired word will come across your tongue
Hands moving upward to propel the situation
Have simply halted
And now the conversation's done
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
I'm only waiting for the proper time to tell you
That it's impossible to get along with you
It's hard to look you in the face when we are talking
So it helps to have a mirror in the room
I've not been really looking forward to the performance
But there's my cue and there's a question on your face
Fortunately I have come across an answer
Which is go away
And do not leave a trace
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here
Waking up for breakfast
Burning matches
Talking quietly
Breaking baubles
Throwing garbage
Drinking soda
Looking happy
Taking pictures
So completely stupid
Just go away
There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here |

Prayer to God: Shellac
To the one true God above:
here is my prayer -
not the first you've heard, but the first I wrote.
(not the first, but the others were a long time ago).
There are two people here, and I want you to kill them.
Her - she can go quietly, by disease or a blow
to the base of her neck,
where her necklaces close,
where her garments come together,
where I used to lay my face...
That's where you oughta kill her,
in that particular place.
Him - just fucking kill him, I don't care if it hurts.
Yes I do, I want it to,
fucking kill him but first
make him cry like a woman,
no particular woman
let him hold out, hope that
someone or other might come
then fucking kill him
Fucking kill him.
Kill him already kill him
Kill him already
Kill him already
Kill Him
amen

I may not always love you,
But long as there are stars above you you never need to doubt it,
I'll make you so sure about it:
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me,
Though life would still go on believe me;
The world could show nothing to me,
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me,
Well life would still go on believe me;
The world could show nothing to me,
So what good would living do me:
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you

It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record.
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?
Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
You'd been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without Lili Marlene
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobody's wife.
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well I see Jane's awake --
She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
I'm glad you stood in my way.
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
-- Sincerely, L. Cohen

I don't want to rain on your parade...but aren't most lyrics poems?

Yeah, but that's the point of the thread. If you read them as poetry rather than in time with an existing tune or whatever, its another way of looking at the words.

Sometimes I feel like I can’t even sing
I’m very scared for this world
I’m very scared for me
Eviscerate your memory
Here’s a scene
You’re in the back seat laying down
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine
All you hear is time stand still in travel
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn’t end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The stars are the greatest thing you’ve ever seen
And they’re there for you
For you alone you are the everything
I think about this world a lot and I cry
And I’ve seen the films and the eyes
But I’m in this kitchen
Everything is beautiful
And she is so beautiful
She is so young and old
I look at her and I see the beauty
Of the light of music
The voices talking somewhere in the house
Late spring and you’re drifting off to sleep
With your teeth in your mouth
You are here with me
You are here with me
You have been here and you are everything
Sometimes I feel like I can’t even sing
I’m very scared for this world
I’m very scared for me
Eviscerate your memory
Here’s a scene
You’re in the back seat laying down
The windows wrap around
To sound of the travel and the engine
All you hear is time stand still in travel
And feel such peace and absolute
The stillness still that doesn’t end
But slowly drifts into sleep
The greatest thing you’ve ever seen
And they’re there for you
For you alone you are the everything
For you alone you are the everything
