Yeah, this is my spiffy lyrics quiz that I just put together now. Anyone that can guess all of 'em will impress me. Some are easy, others are hard. The easy ones don't have many lyrics given, though. Good luck to all.

1) "With the lights out it's less dangerous."
2) "When you're on a holiday
You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too"
3) "Same resolution, get the money
Ain't where we've been, it's where we gonna be"
4) "And it don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite
Jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night"
5) "We know of an ancient radiation
That haunts dismembered constellations"
6) "I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in my self-defeat
My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep
Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak
Impaired my tribal lunar-speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun"
7) "The angry boy a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight
You're way too loud
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say put the past away"
8) "Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time"
9) "Health insurance rip off lying fda big bankers buying
Fake computer crashes dining
Cloning while they're multiplying
Fashion mag shoots
With the aid of 8 dust brothers, beck hanson
Courtney love, and marilyn manson
You're all fakes
Run to your mansions
Come around
We'll kick your ass in!"
10) "Act like you know, Rico
I know what Bo don't know
Touch them up and go, uh-oh!
Ch-ch-chang chang"
11) "you want to move the world,
start with your body.
yo, come on you gotta start with something.
if you wanna move your mind,
just move your body.
move your mind, move your mind,
it’s gonna cost you nothing.
you want to move someone,
start with your body.
yo come on and try ro move somebody.
if you wanna move alone,
then everybody will move along with you."
12) I burn burn like a wicker cabinet,
chalk white and oh so frail.
I see our time has gotten stale.
The tick tock of the clock is painful, so sane and logical.
I want to tear it off the wall.
I hear words and clips and phrases.
I think sick like ginger ale.
My stomach turns and I exhale."
13) "You know its kinda hard just to get along today
Our subject isn't cool, but he fakes it anyway
He may not have a clue, and he may not have style
But everything he lacks, well he makes up in denial
So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
Gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabes
Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!"
14) "i've got somethin' to tell ya,
i've got news for you,
gonna put some wheels in motion,
get ready cause we're comin' through.
Hey now Hey now Hear what i say now
Happiness is just around the corner
Hey now Hey now Hear what i say now
we'll be there for you"

*sigh* Ok, nobody has posted, and somehow this has managed to completly confuse PIP, so I'll explain this again.

The lyrics above are from fourteen different songs. The point of this is to test your knowledge of song lyrics. If you know who sings any of the songs above or what any of the song titles are, then post a reply and provide this information. It's just basically a trivia quiz to see how well you know songs (and yes, I did use a variety of different types of songs).

ok i know these ones:

2 Island in the Sun - Weezer
6 - Steal My Sunshine - Len
8 - Greenday - Forgot the name
13 - Pretty fly for a white guy - Offspring
14 - The Venga Bus is coming - Venga Boys

--------------------

What is new is always evil, being that which wants to conquer and overthrow the old boundary markers and the old pieties; and only what is old is good. The good men are in all ages those who dig the old thoughts, digging deep and getting them to bear fruit - the farmers of the spirit. But eventually all land is depleted, and the ploughshare of evil must come again and again.

Not bad, not bad at all. I'm surprised that nobody has gotten 7 or 10 yet. If someone still gets 5, 9, or 11, I will be really impressed, though.

Eiffel 65... isn't that that group that did the song that went like... " I'm blue, i'm in a guy, i'm in need of a guy...."


You have just been pwned by Pip.

Well, it's good that somebody got that one

Anyways, here are all the answers:

1) Nirvana - "Smells Like Teen Spirit"
2) Weezer - "Island in the Sun"
3) Will Smith - "Will2K"
4) Nitty Gritty Band - "Fishing in the Dark"
5) Cake - "Frank Sinatra"
6) Len - "Steal My Sunshine"
7) Third Eye Blind - "Jumper"
8) Green Day - "Good Riddance"
9) New Radicals - "You Get What You Give"
10) Ini Kamoze - "Here Comes the Hotsteppa"
11) Eiffel 65 - "Move Your Body"

Thanks to all those you played, even if you didn't know any. I'm surprised that so many of these were guessed, though; oh well, at least some of 'em nobody knew.

Can I post a list, pleeeez? lol

lol, sure Slurry, go for it. Just make sure it's not overloaded with Australian rap [Tongue Job 1]

On another note, why is the 'Skittles' handle following me around? Hm, maybe I'll do something about that.......

Slurry, you missed your chance. Here is another set of lyrics, hopefully more difficult this time:

1) "Hungry, feeding on chaos and living in sin
Downward spiral, where do I begin?
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself no love for another
Searching to find a love on a higher level
Finding nothing but questions and devils"
2) "Mott the Hoople and the game of Life. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Andy Kaufman in the wrestling match. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Monopoly, Twenty one, checkers, and chess. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mister Fred Blassie in a breakfast mess. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's play Twister, let's play Risk. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
See you heaven if you make the list. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."
3) "No way I can change my mind
I don't have the answers
If you could see through my eyes
You'd let go of your fears
And though I have to leave you now
With the thought of each other
I'll miss your touch
You call my name
I am with you forever"
4) "You talk about things that nobody cares
You're wearing out things that nobody wears
You're calling my name but you gotta make clear
I can't say baby where i'll be in a year
Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go musta got up and went
Well i got good news, she's a real good liar
'cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fire"
5) "Tell me what do you see
When you look back at your wasted life
And you don't see me
I was ten years old
Doing all that I could
It wasn't easy for me
To be a scared white boy
In a black neighborhood
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card
With a five dollar bill
I never understood you then
And I guess I never will"
6) "The cowboy kills the rock star
And Friday night's gone too far
The dim light hides the years
On all the faded girls
Forgotten but not gone
You drink it off your mind
You talk about the world
Like it's someplace that you've been
You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one
And you're livin' in a world
That you're best forgotten around here"
7) "Mmm, you know I'm just feeling
Celebration tonight
Celebrate, don't wait too late
Mmm, you know, know
We don't stop
You can stop
We gonna celebrate"
8) "Everywhere i go there's someone in a trench coat staring at me
When i'm not at home i'm sure someone's rummaging through my trash
Whatever could they want from me
Is it just a part of a giant government conspiracy?
I gotta go see my doctor about this itchy pentagram-shaped rash.
Everybody open you're mouth
Everybody just say ahhhhh (ah ahh ahh ahhhhh)
Everything will be all right
This won't hurt at all"
9) "Turn it down you say
But all I got to say to you is time and time again I say No!
No! No! No!
Tell me not to play
Well, all I got to say to when you tell me not to play I say No!
No! No! No!
So, if you ask me why I like the way I play it
There's only one thing I can say to you"
10) "In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
butane in my veins and I'm out to cut the junkie
with the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
kill the headlights and put it in neutral
stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
baby's in Reno with the vitamin D
got a couple of couches, sleep on the love-seat
someone came in sayin' I'm insane to complain
about a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
don't believe everything that you breathe
you get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve
so shave your face with some mace in the dark
savin' all your food stamps and burnin' down the trailer park
Yo. Cut it."
11) "In my shoes my toes are busted
My kitchen says my bread is molded
Got a good job at the dollar store
One foot in the hole
One foot gettin' deeper
With a broken mirror
And a blown out speaker
I ain't got much else to lose"
12) "Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones,
Turn into something beautiful,
You know, you know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
I swam across,
I jumped across for you,
Oh what a thing to do."
13) "Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I belive that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But we're not
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you"
14) "She sat right down on the sofa
And says where have you been
I've been waiting for you
And last night i had something so good
These days get so long and i have nothing to do"
15) "You always make me smile when i'm feeling down
You give me such a vibe, i is totally bonafide, mmm
It's not the way you walk, and it ain't the way you talk
It ain't the job you got, that keeps me satisfied"

A bonus point goes out to who can guess which song I saw performed live in concert. Good luck to ya all.

1) Papa Roach - 'Last Resort'
2) REM - 'Man on the Moon'
3)
4) Aerosmith - 'Sweet Emotion'
5) Everclear - 'Father of Mine'
6) Goo Goo Dolls - 'Broadway'
7) I think it's Daft Punk - 'One More Time' but I'm not positive. Friend listens to DP all the time.
8) Not really sure. Don't think this song rings a bell.
9) Couldn't really tell you.
10) Beck - 'Loser' (kick ass song!)
11) Citizen King - 'Better Days'
12) Couldn't tell you this one either!
13) No clue
14) No clue
15) Not going to guess!

Most of those are really good songs you've chosen Scotty, but most of them I got without even second guessing myself!

8) Song now rings a bell! My friend was listening to the cd when I realized who it was! BareNaked Ladies - 'Get In Line'
12) Coldplay - 'Yellow' Should have realized this when the next line would have been cuz you were all YELLOW!
13) Macy Gray - 'I Try' Song starts out with these lyrics!
14) Counting Crows - 'Hanginaround'
15) Sonique - 'It Feels So Good'

Meh, good guess PIP, but utterly wrong. Anyways, here are the answers:

1) Papa Roach - "Last Resort"
2) REM - "Man on the Moon"
3) Journey - "Remember Me"
4) Aerosmith - "Sweet Emotion"
5) Everclear - "Father of Mine"
6) Goo Goo Dolls - "Broadway"
7) Daft Punk - "One More Time"
8) Barenaked Ladies - "Get In Line"
9) Twisted Sister - "I Wanna Rock"
10) Beck - "Loser"
11) Citizen King - "Better Days"
12) Coldplay - "Yellow"
13) Macy Grey - "I Try"
14) Counting Crows - "Hangin' Around"
15) Sonique - "It Feels So Good"

Next one Stapes is prohibited from guessing. He either knows songs good, or is cheating, because it is beyond me how someone could get so many of those. [Tongue Job 1]
