Annie, get your gun Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Since album sleeves are made and printed after the recording is done, they should always have the correct lyrics based on what is sung on the CD. This. Maybe. Hence the "lyrics you thought were one thing and eventually turned out to be another" thread! Haha! But yeah, I like to know the real words. I can usually tell just by listening, but if I decide to read along, I shouldn't need a red pen to make corrections to his own lyrics. Haha, I've never entered to that thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 But like on Carpe Diem for example he obviously sings "dominated by passerbys," but the book says "passersby" because that's the proper english plural of passerby... which Billie probably didn't know and didn't write himself, it's as if Warner just spell checked it for him.

solongfromthestars Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Here's the Uno lyrics as they are in the booklet (except anything in brackets, they're the bits that you can hear but they don't go in the booklet). I've updated the OP with them as well. Nuclear Family (official) Gonna ride the world like a merry-go-round Like a ferris wheel that's breaking down Drinking angel's piss gonna crash and burn I just want some action so gimme my turn Like a Chinese drama and conspiracy It's the death of the nuclear family staring up at you It's looking like another bad comedy Just as long as it comes in high-fidelity for me too Can you hear the sound coming over the hill? Gotta move my feet it's coming in for the kill Baby baby baby it's a blow out Like a nuclear bomb and it won't be long 'til I detonate Like a Chinese drama and conspiracy It's the death of the nuclear family staring up at you It's looking like another bad comedy Just as long as it comes in high-fidelity for me too Gonna ride the world like a merry-go-round LIke a ferris wheel that's breaking down Screaming screaming screaming bloody murder Like a nuclear bomb and it won't be long 'til I detonate Like a Chinese drama and conspiracy It's the death of the nuclear family staring up at you It's looking like another bad comedy Just as long as it comes in high-fidelity for me too (I said ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three Five four three two one) Stay the Night (official) Well I ain't got much time so I'll get to the point Do you wanna share a ride and get the fuck out of this joint? I got an impulse so repulsive that it burns I wanna break your heart until it makes your stomach churn I gotta know if you're the one that got away Even though it was never meant to be Say you'll stay the night 'Cause we're running out of time So stay the night I don't wanna say goodbye (x2) You're so sick and tired of feeling so alone I don't understand the point if you got to go home So won't you stay and count the circles round my eyes? And we can watch the stars until the sun begins to rise I gotta know if you're the one that got away Even though it was never meant to be Say you'll stay the night 'Cause we're running out of time So stay the night I don't wanna say goodbye (x2) Carpe Diem (official) Breaking in a sweat, like a bomb threat Is your silhouette fading out? Nothing left to lose, detonate the fuse Another breaking news blowout Ain't it beautiful, so unusual Life's a gas and it's running out Living a cliché, gonna seize the day Bottle rockets and celebrate Carpe diem, a battle cry Aren't we all too young to die? Ask a reason and no reply Aren't we all too young to die? Making a living, making a killing What's worth forgiving, alright A blink of an eye, barely scraping by Dominated by passersby Feeling out of luck, when the traffic's stuck And you're feeling so left behind Getting off a binge, get a second wind Another promise to make a change Got a broken wing, hear the angels sing When the single is out of range Ain't it strange? Carpe diem, a battle cry Aren't we all too young to die? Ask a reason and no reply Aren't we all too young to die? Making a living, making a killing What's worth forgiving, alright Carpe diem, a battle cry Aren't we all too young to die? Ask a reason and no reply Aren't we all too young to die? Let Yourself Go (official) Shut your mouth 'cause you're talking too much And I don't give a damn anyway You always seem to be stepping in shit And all you really do is complain It's your lie, tell it how you like Small minds seem too alike Shut your mouth 'cause you're talking too much And I don't give a fuck anyway Let yourself go (Gotta let it go) Shut your mouth 'cause you're screaming in my ear And you're taking up all of the space You're really testing my patience again And I'd rather get punched in the face You're getting on my very last nerve Everything you've said I've already heard I'm sick to death of your every last breath And I don't give a fuck anyway Let yourself go (Gotta let it go) Always fuck fuckin' with my head now Always fucking with And I gotta let it go Let yourself go Kill the DJ (official) Walking after dark In the New York City park Your thoughts are so unholy In the holiest of holes Onward Christian soldier Filled with jive & mind control The blood left on the dancefloor Running running red The bullet that you asked for Kill you to your death unless you Someone kill the DJ Shoot the fucking DJ The voices in my head are saying shoot the fucker down We are the vultures, the dirtiest kind The culture wars in your heart & your mind The blood left on the dancefloor Running running red The bullet that you asked for Kill you to your death unless you Someone kill the DJ Shoot the fucking DJ Hold him underwater till the motherfucker drowns We are the vultures, the dirtiest kind The culture wars in your heart & your mind The blood left on the dancefloor Running running red The bullet that you asked for Kill you to your death unless you Someone kill the DJ Shoot the fucking DJ Shoot the fucker down Someone kill the DJ Shoot the fucking DJ The voices in my head are saying shoot the fucker down Fell for You (official) I woke up in a pool of sweat First I thought that I pissed the bed Haunted stories in the midnight hour The kiss of death from the Eiffel Tower Then I went down like the speed of sound You're out of sight but not out of mind I had a dream that I kissed your lips and it felt so true Then I woke up as a nervous wreck and I fell for you I'll spend the night living in denial Making paper planes just for a while I'll crash into you, I crash into you 'Cause you crashed in my imagination too Break a leg and you crush my heart I'm a mess and you're a work of art Count your blessings going zero to five I steal a kiss then I took a dive Then I went down like the speed of sound You're out of sight but not out of mind I had a dream that I kissed your lips and it felt so true Then I woke up as a nervous wreck and I fell for you I'll spend the night living in denial Making paper planes just for a while I'll crash into you, I crash into you 'Cause you crashed in my imagination I had a dream that I kissed your lips and it felt so true Then I woke up as a nervous wreck and I fell for you And I fell for you And I fell for you Loss of Control (official) I'm taking down all my enemies 'cause they're all so fucking useless A bunch of shit-talking drama queens and they're all filled with excuses I wanna find me a better scene where it's not the same opinion I'd rather go to the funeral than to this high school reunion April Fool!

No Rhyme Or Reason Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 ^ Do you want to have the "official" lyrics from the album sleeve, even though they're wrong in a bunch of parts? (As laly and I have been discussing recently.) Because on GDA it has the correct lyrics, with what's actually sung rather than what is written. Like in LYG, he says "cut the crap cause you're screaming in my ear," not "shut your mouth cause you're screaming in my ear." There were a lot of mistakes, and it might be good to fix them for this thread. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, it's probably best to just keep the ones from the booklet seeing as they're "official". I think some of the GDA ones are correct but on others the booklet is more accurate.

It's mostly just little weird mistakes in the album sleeve. They have a few words wrong in Stay The Night, Nuclear Family, and Let Yourself Go, then some organizational issues in other songs like Kill The DJ.... stuff like that.

gerardsangel4977 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I took down the lyrics for the songs in tonight's CSI ep based on the closed captioning. The only song that got played in full was "Amy", which we already had the official lyrics to (I even double-checked to make sure there weren't any changes since the Tiki Bar), so these are just going to be small bits of songs. But hopefully they can help fill in some blanks: "Stop When The Red Lights Flash" Uncomfortable silence I'll kill it if you want me to I'm like ultra-violence I'll kill it if you want me to Out of sight, out of mind I'm not the hurting kind I'll make you surrender Stop when the red lights flash I'll trade you blood for dirty cash I'll make you surrender "Nightlife" (sans verses) Taking a ride to my old haunt She's in my blood I reside in my nightlife My favorite color's candy apple, girl And she resides in my mind and my nightlife Well, I am rollin' Strollin' into town (come inside) Is it me? Or am I going crazy? (It's just you) This dirty city is my sugar town (sugar town) My little angel of death is my nightlife "The Forgotten" Where in the world's the forgotten? They're lost inside your memory You're dragging on Your heart's been broken 'Cause we all go down in history Where in the world did the time go? It's where your spirit seems to roam Like losing faith to our abandon Or an empty hallway from a broken home Well, don't look away From the arms of a bad dream Don't look away Sometimes you're better lost than to be seen Don't look away From the arms of a moment Don't look away From the arms of tomorrow Don't look away From the arms of a moment Don't look away From the arms of love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Rhyme Or Reason Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I typed out the lyrics for The Forgotten, based on the iTunes preview and the CSI episode: Where in the world's the forgotten? They're lost inside your memory You're dragging on, your heart's been broken As we all go down in history Where in the world did the time go? It's where your spirit seems to roam Like losing faith to our abandon Or an empty hallway from a broken home Don't look away From the arms of a bad dream Don't look away Sometimes you're better lost than to be seen I don't feel strange, it's more like haunted Another moment trapped in time I can't quite put my finger on it But it's like a child that was left behind (second half of verse, etc.) Don't look away From the arms of a bad dream Don't look away Sometimes you're better lost than to be seen Don't look away From the arms of a moment Don't look away From the arms of tomorrow Don't look away From the arms of a moment Don't look away From the arms of love Also, here's the updated lyrics for Stop When The Red Lights Flash, based on the various live videos and the CSI episode (I just fixed the ultra violence line is all) - Uncomfortable silence I'll kill it if you want me to I'm like ultra-violence I'll kill it if you want me to Out of sight, out of mind I'm not the hurting kind I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender Stop when the red lights flash I'll trade you blood for dirty cash Life in the catacombs That make me feel like I'm alone Out of sight, out of mind I'm not the hurting kind I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender Out of sight, out of mind Just give in one more time I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender I'll make you surrender, I'll make you surrender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
