Okay, now I remember why I mostly hate music with lyrics, and probably don't
know the lyrics to any songs all the way through (well maybe Pixies' Wave of
Mutilation but that is about it). I usually figure I'm better off not knowing
what all the lyrics are to most songs.
I don't know the song below, but when read, those lyrics just look really bad
to me. Not a flame just a personal opinion. I guess I love instrumental music
because it frees me to have different kinds of thoughts, unusual, impersonal,
cosmic thoughts - I can dream about being a subatomic particle or a cat or a
moonbeam... Whereas the majority of lyrics seem to fall into really cliched
ideas about humans and stereotypical socialized interactions. I feel more
liberated having my own thoughts than hearing someone's cheap love song.
Techno and 313 songs actually do a bit better on this front though. And I
actually have no problem with silly party lyrics, lyrics about BOOTY, or
commands to "Jack Your Body!" Just don't like the typical subjects of
emotional type songs unless they are very unusual and written in a poetic or
off-center way, and that includes vocal house.

Ok so it isnt partciularly underground but suprisingly poignant lyrics I
reckon : basement jaxx 'good luck' ...
Tell me tell me is life just a playground
Think you're the real deal honey
And someone'll always look after you
But wake up baby
You're so totally deluded
You'll end up old and lonely
If you don't get a bullet in your head
Good luck good luck
Good luck in your new bed
Enjoy your nightmares honey
When your're resting your head
You sold me sold me
Sold me down the river now
Hope you're feeling happy now
Now you'll always have a sneer in your smile
But wake up baby
You're so totally deluded
You'll end up old and lonely
If you don't get a bullet in your head
Good luck good luck
Good luck in your new bed
Enjoy your nightmares honey
When you're resting your head
And I'm glad so glad that I'm done with you
No more crying crying leaving me so black and blue
You backed me up against the wall but I stand tall
Don't give a damn no more
Oh baby bye bye
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
Without you
Good good luck
In your new bed
Enjoy your nightmares when your resting your head
Good good luck
In your new bed
Enjoy your nightmares
Good luck good luck
Good luck in your new bed
Enjoy your nightmares honey
When you're resting your head
Although not house I always thought Pato Banton was pretty cut-up when
he sung baby come back :
Come back woman.
Come back Lisa!
Don't leave!
Me crying man.
Come back baby!
Don't go!
Bring back me C. D. collection.
Bring back me Sensi.
Don't go and leave me like this.
:D
peace,
marc
