“Is all I really want is a machine that will turn plastic into dreams”
Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!
The Number of the Beast
(ok not really a line so much as a scream, but come on. That’s spine tingling.)
My favorite Maiden…Revelations:
She came to me with a serpents kiss
As the eye of the sun rose on her lips
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry
So we lay in a black embrace
And the seed is sown in a holy place
And I watched and I waited for the dawn
The light of the blind youll see
The venom that tears my spine
The eyes of the nile are opening - youll see

Not strictly rock 'n roll, but:
Many times we’ve been out drinking
Many times we’ve shared our thoughts
Did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got
Well you know I have a love, for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive, for life I won’t let go
But sometimes this opposition, comes rising up in me
This terrible imposition, comes blacking through my mind
And then I see a darkness

You know I love Bonnie Prince Billy…that song is brilliant. Not rock n roll no, but worthy nonetheless.
You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun
Pink Floyd “Time”
Here are some great lines … well its rock n roll after all
the lyrics say it all
To all those people who have pissed me off I’d like to say a thing or two
To all you losers who have left me down yea I’m writing this song for you.
For all you liars who have lied to me keep rolling in the shit you say.
To all those friends who have put the screws to me then jerked around and walked away.
No more friendship favors
No more goddamn games
No more next time, just fuck off and be on your way.
i forget what i did
cause the shape i was in
made a hole in my head
where my brain used to been
and i think theres a link
every drink turns a dink
to an asshole
It was one of those nights when you turn off the lights
And everythin’ comes into view
She was takin’ her time I was loosin my mind
There was nothin’ that she wouldn’t do
It wasn’t the first, it wasn’t the last
She knew we was makin’ love
I was so satisfied, deep down inside
Like a hand in a velvet glove
Seems like a touch, a touch too much
Seems like a touch, a touch too much
Too much for my body
Too much for my brain
This damn woman’s gonna drive me insane
She got a touch
A touch too much
She had the face of an angel smilin’ with sin
The body of Venus with arms
Dealin’ with danger strokin’ my skin
Like a thunder and lightnin’ storm
It wasn’t the first, it wasn’t the last
It wasn’t that she didn’t care
She wanted it hard, wanted it fast
She liked it done medium rare
Loose hearted lady sleepy was she,
Love for the devil bought her to me,
Seeds of a thousand drawn to her sin,
Seasons of wither holding me in
-Aerosmith
“Come one Dave, give me a break”
“One break…coming UP!”
Van halen cracks me up. Those guys know how to rock.
“You ain’t a beauty but hey you’re alriiight, ooh and that’s alright with me…”
“They’ve made their choices and they’ll never know/ What’s it like to cheat, to steal, to lie/ What it’s to live and die…”
The Boss is my hero
Ain’t got no picture postcards,
Ain’t got no souveniers,
My baby she don’t know me
when I’m thinkin’ 'bout those years
The Tragically Hip:
New Orleans is Sinking
The Boss went back to back with these two great lines;
“At night I wake up with the sheets open wet and a freight train runnin’ through the middle of my head”
and
“Sometimes it’s like some took a knife, baby, edgy and dull, and cut a six inch valley through the middle of my soul”
-Bruce Springstein
I’m on Fire
Nine Inch Nails “The Great Below”
Is there hope for me?
After all is said and done
Anything at any price
All of this for you
All the spoils of a wasted life
All of this for you
Type O Negative “Haunted”
A swollen sun melting at the horizon
Between the sheets I wait for her to come
A living flame, impossible to resist
Burning me deep with every bite, kiss and lick
I’m haunted
I’m haunted
I’m haunted (by her)
Invades my sleep with tumescent intentions
Hades I’m sure must be missing a demon
Type O Negative “Love You to Death”
Her salty sweat
Drips from her breast.
Her hips move
And I can feel what they’re sayin,
Swayin…
They say the beast inside of
Me is gonna get ya, get ya,
Yeah…
Type O Negative “Too Late: Frozen”
Cold winter winds that chill my heart with sleet & snow
Not from the North come to this glacial abode
But from your dimension cryogenic limbo
I’m freezing
I’m frozen
It’s too late
Deep Purple “Perfect Strangers”
Can you remember remember my name
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown
And cold spirits of ice
All my life
I am the echo of your past…
Alanis Morrisette “Perfect”
I’ll live through you
I’ll make you what I never was
If you’re the best, then maybe so am I
Compared to him compared to her
I’m doing this for your own damn good
You’ll make up for what I blew
What’s the problem…why are you crying
Jeff Buckley “Last Goodbye”
This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it’s over
Just hear this and then i’ll go
You gave me more to live for
More than you’ll ever know
