Favourite kings lyrics

[izzy]

Here's to the kids out there smoking in the streets
They're way too young but I'm way too old to preach

(I know how he feels!!!)

Also like Pack of smokes and a little bump of cocaine!

Stand up to a giant... too drunk to remember

(That used to be my sig on my website, now it's the first one!)

[foilhat]

i'm in i can't get off i'm so soft.

[captainsplashy]

Cross my t's,
Try to dot my i's,
But that's just blindin' me
And I ain't livin that way
I roll my sleeves and make a better man of me

Hey, you know it ain’t coincidental that you’re lost in place
It’s drippin’ off your face, and you’re losin’ your precious mind

Miles away, so unclear, almost lost it in Montana
Lets pull over, have us a choke
I love to watch you when you're dancin'.
I wonder if they ever dreamed, they would get just what we gave them
All wrapped up in bein 19, chasin' stars that are fallin'

I find it really hard to isolate one line or verse that I like in a KOL song, because to me the whole is greater than the sum of its parts….or something like that. Each lyric, whether it’s spectacular or average, is integral in developing the mood of the song. Whereas, I can pick one line from a Counting Crows song (for example) that’s great, while the other lines in the song are kind of average, and don’t really do anything for the song. I’m not explaining this well…it makes sense in my head, I swear .

[suneyedgirl]

Two songs stick out in my head:

Behind the fringe of a whiskey high
mutilating cat like eyes
and in your nose blood decadence
you try to drag me into your bohemian dancing...

'Cause rememo except for home
it's personal but they need to know
I'm overdue another round
to gain control and take me down
you're all tied up as you should be
and I'll be cuttin out naturally.....


Soft and Rememo.

Don't take these boots off me, when you think that I'm dead. I'll still be running from the demon in my head.

Bloody fantastic lyric.

[sovietkitsch]

'This party is overrated, but there ain't shit else to do.'
(Four Kicks)

I think many people can relate to that, that's why I love it.

and: 'You know you could've been a wonder'
'I said nah nah hey hey'
(Red Morning Light)

'We drank wine in the matinee
and the spotlight showed what it chased away'
(Milk)

Wel, let's just say Caleb is a fabulous writer, I love all the lyrics, even the really gross ones.

[mavdancer]

I got the lyric that trumps everything...

"She's frenching out the flavor, she 17, but I dun went and plum forgot it."

Enough Said...

[amycakes]

all of holy roller novocaine

[chichi]

While it's one of my favorite songs, the lyrics in Holy Roller Novocaine kind of disturb me.

I try to pretend he's not singing about what I think he's really singing about......ya know what I mean?

[amycakes]

i know what you mean but i just love the way it's written. and i think the southern accent helps.
