    People line up to receive,

    She got the power in her hands,
    to shock you like you won't believe

    Saw her in the Amazon,
    with the voltage running through her skin

    Standing there with nothing on,
    she's gonna teach me how to swim...

    On The Western Front

    BY ALFRED NOYES

    I found a dreadful acre of the dead,
    Marked with the only sign on earth that saves.
    The wings of death were hurrying overhead,
    The loose earth shook on those unquiet graves;

    For the deep gun-pits, with quick stabs of flame,
    Made their own thunders of the sunlit air;
    Yet, as I read the crosses, name by name,
    Rank after rank, it seemed that peace was there;

    Sunlight and peace, a peace too deep for thought,
    The peace of tides that underlie our strife,
    The peace with which the moving heavens are fraught,
    The peace that is our everlasting life.

    The loose earth shook. The very hills were stirred.
    The silence of the dead was all I heard.

    We, who lie here, have nothing more to pray.
    To all your praises we are deaf and blind.
    We may not ever know if you betray
    Our hope, to make earth better for mankind.

    Only our silence, in the night, shall grow
    More silent, as the stars grow in the sky;
    And, while you deck our graves, you shall not know
    How many scornful legions pass you by.

    For we have heard you say (when we were living)
    That some small dream of good would “cost too much.”
    But when the foe struck, we have watched you giving,
    And seen you move the mountains with one touch.

    What can be done, we know. But, have no fear!
    If you fail now, we shall not see or hear.

    Speaking of kick ass lyrics, this is my favorite song lately.

    Closest to me she must be a good child?
    Don't ignore the signs, that's right
    You be her teacher, taking

    Shivering, she awakes in the cold sweat
    Terrified so she speaks under her breathe
    Makes a fake cry for help, she's a real mess
    That's the sign of the stress, ma, listen to her

    Heartbeats working overtime in her chest
    Scared stiff from approaching footsteps
    Ignoring the stains on her torn dress
    Come now ma, listen to her

    How could you put your own child in danger?
    And turn around and take the words of a stranger
    You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her
    Too late ma, you should have listened to her

    Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace
    With the angels
    Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace
    With the angels

    She's fading like a delicate flower
    Try to wash away the shame in the shower
    Defending him left her feeling overpowered
    You were wrong ma, you didn't listen to her

    It was there in the words of the letter
    Had you read it maybe things would be better
    You let her down and I won't let you forget her
    Save ya tears ma, you should have listened to her

    How could you put your own child in danger?
    And turn around and take the words of a stranger
    You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her
    Save ya tears ma, you didn't listen to her

    Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace
    With the angels
    Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace
    With the angels

    Why day, why day
    Why day, why day

    Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace
    With the angels
    Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace
    With the angels

    Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace
    With the angels
    Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace
    With the angels

    My favorite... its gotta be this:
    Please allow me to introduce myself
    I'm a man of wealth and taste
    I've been around for a long, long year
    Stole many a mans soul and faith
    And I was round when jesus christ
    Had his moment of doubt and pain
    Made damn sure that pilate
    Washed his hands and sealed his fate
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guess my name
    But what's puzzling you
    Is the nature of my game
    I stuck around st. petersburg
    When I saw it was a time for a change
    Killed the czar and his ministers
    Anastasia screamed in vain
    I rode a tank
    Held a generals rank
    When the blitzkrieg raged
    And the bodies stank
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
    Ah, what's puzzling you
    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
    I watched with glee
    While your kings and queens
    Fought for ten decades
    For the gods they made
    I shouted out,
    Who killed the kennedys?
    When after all
    It was you and me
    Let me please introduce myself
    I'm a man of wealth and taste
    And I laid traps for troubadours
    Who get killed before they reached bombay
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
    But what's puzzling you
    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
    But what's confusing you
    Is just the nature of my game
    Just as every cop is a criminal
    And all the sinners saints
    As heads is tails
    Just call me lucifer
    Cause I'm in need of some restraint
    So if you meet me
    Have some courtesy
    Have some sympathy, and some taste
    Use all your well-learned politesse
    Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
    But what's puzzling you
    Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
    Woo, who
    Oh yeah, get on down
    Oh yeah
    Oh yeah!
    Tell me baby, what's my name
    Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
    Tell me baby, what's my name
    I tell you one time, you're to blame
    Ooo, who
    Ooo, who
    Ooo, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Oh, yeah
    What's my name
    Tell me, baby, what's my name
    Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Ooo, who, who
    Oh, yeah

    On the street of villains taken for a ride
    you can have the devil as a guide
    crippled by the boundaries, programmed into guilt
    'til your nervous system starts to tilt.

    And in the room of mirrors you can see for miles
    but everything that's there is in disguise
    every word you've uttered and every thought you've had
    is all inside your file, the good and the bad.

    But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
    universe at play inside your DNA
    you're a billion years old today
    oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from
    is inside of you and now your payment's overdue
    oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun.

    On the avenue of sinners I have been employed
    working there 'til I was near destroyed
    I was almost a statistic inside a doctor's case
    when I heard the messenger from inner space
    he was sending me a signal that so for long I had
    ignored
    but he held on to my umbilical cord
    until the ghost of memory trapped in my body mind
    came out of hiding to become alive.

    And in the rising sun you can hear your life begin
    and it's here and there nowhere and everywhere
    though it's atmosphere is rare
    oh the rising sun and the place that it's coming from
    is inside of me and now I feel it constantly
    oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun, oh the rising
    sun.

    But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
    universe at play inside your DNA
    you're a billion years old today
    oh the rising sun and the place it's coming from
    is inside of you and now your payment's overdue
    oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun, oh the rising
    sun.

    I put my hand in my pocket
    What do I feel
    One hundred and ten stories
    Of concrete and steel
    I like to watch

    That plane-shaped hole
    Really gets me hot
    But the big ball of fire
    Is the money shot
    I like to watch

    I like to watch
    The plane going in
    I like to watch
    The flame shooting out
    People dive into the street
    While I play with my meat
    My steel melted and my tower's coming down

    The New York skyline
    Will never be the same
    But the guys who flew those planes
    Had fucking amazing aim
    I like to watch

    There must have been a reason
    But I don't understand
    Why they hit the Pentagon
    Instead of Disneyland
    I like to watch

    I like to watch
    The plane going in
    I like to watch
    The flame shooting out
    It's raining broken glass
    While I sit on my ass
    My steel melted and my tower's coming down

    I'd almost had enough
    Of watching planes explode
    Until they showed it in reverse
    And I had to shoot my load
    I like to watch

    Now my hand's all sticky
    And I can't find a rag
    I guess I'll have to use
    The american flag
    I like to watch

    Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
    We people on the pavement looked at him:
    He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
    Clean favored, and imperially slim.
    And he was always quietly arrayed,
    And he was always human when he talked;
    But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
    "Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.
    And he was rich – yes, richer than a king –
    And admirably schooled in every grace:
    In fine, we thought that he was everything
    To make us wish that we were in his place.
    So on we worked, and waited for the light,
    And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;
    And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
    Went home and put a bullet through his head.

    When Johnny comes marching home again
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    We'll give him a hearty welcome then
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    The men will cheer and the boys will shout
    The ladies they will all turn out
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home.
    The old church bell will peal with joy
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    To welcome home our darling boy,
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    The village lads and lassies say
    With roses they will strew the way,
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home.
    Get ready for the Jubilee,
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    We'll give the hero three times three,
    Hurrah! Hurrah!
    The laurel wreath is ready now
    To place upon his loyal brow
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home.
    Let love and friendship on that day,
    Hurrah, hurrah!
    Their choicest pleasures then display,
    Hurrah, hurrah!
    And let each one perform some part,
    To fill with joy the warrior's heart,
    And we'll all feel gay
    When Johnny comes marching home.
