FLOBOTS - STAND UP Stand up We shall not be moved Except By a child with no socks and shoes If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you Stand up We shall not be moved Except by a woman dying from a loss of food If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you We still don't understand thunder and lightning Flash back to when we didn't fund the dam Didn't fund the dam levee? No wonder man Now our whole damn city's torn asunder man Under water but we still don't understand We see hurricane spills overrun the land Through gaps you couldn't fill with a 100 tons of sand No we still don't understand We've seen planes in the windows of buildings crumbled in We've seen flames send the chills through London And we've sent planes to kill them and some of them were children But still we crumbling the building Underfunded but we still don't understand Under God but we kill like the son of Sam But if you feel like I feel like about the son of man We will overcome So Stand up We shall not be moved Except By a child with no socks and shoes If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you Stand up We shall not be moved Except by a woman dying from a loss of food If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you I said Put your hands up and I'll copy you Put your hands up and I'll copy you If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you We shall not be moved Except By a child with no socks and shoes Except by a woman dying from a loss of food Except by a freedom fighter bleeding on a cross for you We shall not be moved Except by a system thats rotten through Neglecting the victims and ordering the cops to shoot High treason now we need to prosecute So Stand up We shall not be moved And we won't fight a war for fossil fuel Its times like this that you want to plot a coup Put your hands up and I'll copy you So Stand up We shall not be moved Unless were taking a route we have not pursued So if you've got a dream and a lot to do Put your hands up and I'll copy you I said Put your hands up and I'll copy you Put your hands up and I'll copy you if you've got a dream and a lot to do Put your hands up Now shake, shake A Polaroid dream nightmare negatives develop on the screen We sit back and wait for the government team Criticize they but who the **** are we The people want peace but the leaders want war Our neighbors don't speak, peek through the front door House representatives preach "stay the course" Time for a leap of faith Once More Put your hands up high if you haven't abandoned Hope that the pen strokes stronger than the cannon Balls to the wall, Nose to the grindstone My interrogation techniques leave your mind blown So Place your bets lets speak to the enemy Don't let em pretend that we seek blood And who's we anyways Kemo Sabe? Mighty warlord wanna-be street thug a threat for a threat leaves the whole world terrified blow for blow never settles the score word for word is time need clarify We the people did not want war So Stand up We shall not be moved Except By a child with no socks and shoes If you've got more to give then you've got to prove Put your hands up and I'll copy you Unless were taking a route we have not pursued So if you've got a dream and a lot to do Put your hands up and I'll copy you I said Put your hands up and I'll copy you Put your hands up and I'll copy you if you've got a dream and a lot to do Put your hands up |

Green Day - Longview
Sit around and watch the tube but, nothings on Change the channels for an hour of two Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit Im sick of all the same old **** In a house with unlocked doors And Im ****ing lazy Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise Im so damn bored Im going blind !!! And I smell like **** Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving I sure as hell cant do it by myself Im feeling like a dog in heat Barred indoors from the summer street I locked the door to my own cell And I lost the key Sit around and watch the phone, but no ones calling Call me pathetic, call me what you will My mother says to get a job But she dont like the one shes got When masturbations lost its fun Youre ****ing breaking Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise Im so damn bored Im going blind And loneliness has to suffice Bite my lip and close my eyes Slipping away to paradise Some say, quit or Ill go blind. But its just a myth |

Have actually shed a tear over this one.
Its Been a while... It's been a while Since I could... Hold my head up high It's been a while Since I first saw you It's been a while Since I could stand on my own two feet again And it's been a while Since I could call you And everything I can remember As ****ed up as it all may seem Consequences that I've rendered Have stretched myself beyond my means It's been a while Since I could say that I wasn't addicted It's been a while Since I could say I loved myself as well and... It's been a while Since I've gone and ****ed things up Just like I always do It's been a while But all that **** seems to disappear when I'm with you And everything I can remember As ****ed up as it all may seem Consequences that I've rendered Gone and ****ed things up again... again Why must I feel this way? Just make this go away Just one more peaceful day It's been a while Since I could... Look at myself straight It's been a while Since I said I'm sorry It's been a while Since I've seen the way candles light your face It's been a while But I can still remember just the way you taste Everything I can remember As ****ed up as it all may seem To me... I know this pain Can I blame this on my father? He did the best he could for me It's been a while Since I could... Hold my head up high It's been a while Since I said I'm sorry STAIND |
