WrongWayToSalvation Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 This is what I've got: There is trouble in the air A rumble in the streets A going out of business sale A race for bankruptcy It's not one to 99, it's 99 to one A common cause and a call to arms For the wealth of our daughter and our sons It's 99 revolutions tonight 99 revolutions tonight There's a rat in the company A bail on easy street How the fuck did the working self Become so obsolete Hit the lights and bang the drum And let your ____ igitrne gijlen rtilbj fhfj In the hall of justice and lost souls It's 99 revolutions tonight 99 revolutions tonight We live in troubled times From the ghettos to an empty suburban home We live in troubled times And I'm 99 percent sure someone's wrong It's 99 revolutions tonight 99 revolutions tonight Nine, nine to one To one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
July21 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Working off of Matt's lyrics... There's a trouble in the air A rumble in the streets A going out of business sale And a race to bankruptcy It's not one to 99, it's 99 to one A common cause and a call to arms For the health of our daughters and our sons It's 99 revolutions tonight There's a rat in the company A bail (bill?) on easy street How the fuck did the working stiff Become so obsolete? Hit the lights and bang your drum And let your _____ unfold Cause history will prove itself In the hall of justice and lost souls It's 99 revolutions tonight We live in troubled times From the ghettos to an empty suburban home We live in troubled times And I'm 99 percent sure that something's wrong It's 99 revolutions tonight i think it's "let your funk unfold" and it's "in the halls" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

July21 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I dunno... I kind of hear funk but that would just make zero sense indeed well, i think "unfold" could be wrong, too. maybe it's just "fold" and there's a longer word in front of it?

porksoda Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm almost sure that it's "The culture war's in your heart and your mind" and not "We'll cut you once in your heart and your mind" for Kill the DJ, but I'm probably wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather. Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I thought it was bill, but "bail" is just too appropriate for the whole occupy-bailout thing. Not that bill is such a stretch either... I agree it might be "flag unfold." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malleus Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Fell For You lyrics so far: I woke up in a pool of sweat At first I thought that I pissed the bed Heart of stars in the midnight hour A kiss of death from the Effiel Tower And 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, crash into you Did you crash in my imagination too? Break a leg... Beautiful lyrics. Can't wait for the full song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

July21 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 just copied the lyrics from the lady cobra and nightlife thread where Ballad posted them Nightlife Taking a ride to my old haunt She's in my blood, I reside in my nightlife My favourite color's candy apple, girl (wtf) And she resides in my mind and my nightlife What's that I hear? You wanna go for a ride? Don't be afraid, boy, to come inside I got the thing that you want, the fix that you need Chase this with a little lust and greed I'll be the devil on your shoulder saying "Hey boy, come on" My black heart beats crimson ? Operator, operator let ya boy in This is nightlife and I'll get under your skin Taking a ride to my old haunt She's in my blood, I reside in my nightlife My favourite color's candy apple, girl And she resides in my mind and my nightlife What a thrill, heart beats fast Sounds like love but you know it won't last Cheap champagne stain on an even cheaper suit Hope there's more in your pants than a bus route ? Walls ? Sugar-coatd balls?? (hahaha) Girls on your bar stools from late last calls This town is filled with snakes, mistakes and whiskey shakes It's too late I already cut the brakes I'm rollin', strollin' into town (come inside) Is it me or am I going crazy? (just you) This dirty city is my sugar town (sugar town) My little angel of death is my nightlife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malleus Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Tried to make out some Lady Cobra lyrics. No idea how accurate they are but it's fun regardless. Well I met a girl named Lady Cobra Her black heart beats through ? She gives me chills and ? blisters She's serving spells and voodoo shakes? She just wants to get me high Stick a needle in my eye ? Of loss and temptation ? on my inner demons (Reeks like a loss of temptation, living on my inner demons?) I don't wanna suicide, I don't want this to end I just want to be your friend ?????? (No idea wtf he's saying here) Talk to me by candlelight Do you wanna play a game of Twister Like a dirty old man with a babysitter? I don't wanna suicide, I don't want this to end I just want to be your friend I don't want to make you cry Cross my heart and hope to die Drawing blood and ? stars Drinking ? for cheap guitars I don't wanna suicide, I don't want this to end I just want to be your friend Oh, your friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather. Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 In the NME article they mention it being weird for a 40-year-old to write a song about his "Sweet 16" but if the lyrics are actually "you'll always be my sweet 16" (and someone mentioned that at one of the 2011 secret shows Billie said it was an anniversary song), it's funny that it comes across creepy But Billie's never minded pedophile jokes in the past, soo... Guess we'll need to wait to hear the whole thing to be sure whether he's being a middle-aged prom creeper or just going for a double meaning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Sweet 16 is a GIRL'S 16th birthday. i was at the webster hall show in oct 2011 ...he said it was 16 years (actually last year as he announced it) that sweet 16 was written....aka 2010 -16 years = 1994 = when he got married. it made sense its obviously about his marriage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather. Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Soo Angel Blue is, IMO, going to be one of the catchiest, funnest songs on Uno (and several of the new reviews I think have mentioned its potential as a fan favorite)... it's such a cross between Kerplunk and that Johnny Be Goode style of rock (especially that opening, so rad). Anyway, here is my feeble attempt at some lyrics, which definitely look like they'll be a lot of fun. ____ it up and I burn it down Not a princess, I'm a fucking clown ____ tears and _____ cry/pride Won't you be my bloody Valentine? I'm just a fucking ____ you know I really need you that way Want (a senorita?) and now your ____ is gonna pay Angel blue will _____ and _____ Angel blue will make me [baby faced?]______ _____ around like a stick in the mud Cut my chest just to see the blood Now I'm singing out the alphabet... And I'm just _______ on my cigarette [A lot more singing + chorus again] Trying to find my better angels.... ____ around like a stick in the mud Cut my chest just to see the blood Now I'm singing out the alphabet Won't you be my bloody valentine?

Angel Blue, Fell For You and Troublemaker my favs right now. Although, Angel Blue's lyrics are quite strange. But the guitar is killer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
