Ayame Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 ^ I love the lyrics from the Judge's Daughter;Today I kept on falling down, I thought it was the street, so I look down at my shoes, they were on the wrong feet. I love that line, too!!!I find it hard to be myself(can you please explain?)And I do not think that it's my health(you're the one to blame)I have too many favourite lines..

J'net Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I love that line, too!!!I find it hard to be myself(can you please explain?)And I do not think that it's my health(you're the one to blame)I have too many favourite lines.. I have too many favorites, too, and Judge's Daughter contains quite a few of them..."My girlfriend left me on the phoneI'm pathetically left here alone"And the way Billie changes his voice when he sings..."Can we find a waySo that you can stayI think I'm gonna pop!"He just captures that naughty, guilty, blissful feeling that we all know and love ^Great choices, I love Jackass Remember the song in the old Bodyform sanitary towel adverts that went "Whooooaaaa Body form, Bodyform for yooouuuu!"? The saxophone bit sounds exactly like that.Being from the U.S., I've never seen/heard that ad (thank goodness), but I DO love Jackass. However, everyone's already quoted my favorite lines, so I'll just mention the fact that I love the sound of this song - it's almost lighthearted in its feel, but the lyrics are so cutting. The contrast makes it even more interesting than it would be otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warding_off_regrets Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Oh my God there are so many He's a lyrical genius.The number multiplies by about ten when taking into account the way he'll say something. No, he totally doesn't have me around his finger :/One of my favorites that I always think of first is from Church on Sunday - "...Making your mascara bleed tears down your face, leaving traces of my mistakes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J'net Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Coming in here makes me sooooooooooo thankful that I have a place to come and geek out over this band Me, too! It's so wonderful to find other people who understand!!! I sent an email to a work colleague about the new album today, and he responded, "Cool." I was feeling like responding, "NOooooooo .... HOT!" Anyway, I was also listening to St. Jimmy today and loving this lyric:"Cigarettes and ramen and a little bag of dopeI am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allen Poe"Also at the very end, the way Billie says, "And don't wear it out!"

Like holy shit. Anyways it's an awesome song too, it was one of my first "favorite green day song"'s. "Does it seem like all your memories fade?You soak up knowledge to fill the space.And still my answer remains,I don't know."^ I love the lyrics from the Judge's Daughter;Today I kept on falling down, I thought it was the street, so I look down at my shoes, they were on the wrong feet.Whoa, hah.I always thought it was "They were under our feet" as in, he loves her so much, his feet get lifted off the ground whenever he sees her.Lmfao, yours is obviously right and much more simple, but I think mine fits too, hah.
