Everybody get Dangerous - Weezer

When I was younger
I used to go and tip cows for fun, yeah
Actually I didn't do that
'Cos I didn't want the cow to be sad
But some of my friends did
They were all just a little bit wicked
They'd blow up mail boxes
With a baseball bat
Go for direct hits

I know how to win you can forget it
They throw rotten eggs into traffic
Toilet paper the fences
Throw the tables, chairs, and the benches
After practice
Sometimes we would break into mad fits
Causin' damage
(Burnin' amplifiers and mic stands)

Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous

I've got a confession
That I will make if you will listen
Late in the nighttimes
We'd drive around with hairspray and sharp knives
Lookin' for road kills
Lightin' things on fire for cheap thrills
Stab the corpses
And lick the knives like we're evil forces

Hockey games on frozen ponds
No safety pads were ever put on
Drivin' home on country roads
Sixty-five in a twenty-five zone
In my parents Tercel
How did we survive so well
Throw the keys and the wheel locked up
I almost killed every one of us

Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous

There must be
A guardian angel
Or some kind of destiny we have
'Cos we should have died
A long time ago
The way that we were livin' in our paths

What will we say when our kids come to us
And ask, with a smile on their face,
"Hey Dad, my friend's got some new ninja swords!
Is it cool if we slash up his place?"
Hey
Hey
Hey ("Is it cool if we slash up his place?")
And get dangerous

Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous (Boo yah!)
Everybody get dangerous
Everybody get dangerous

(Ow!)
Ow!
Ow!
Gow!
Gow! (Yee, heeya!)
(Gow!)

 

In a Zone - Anthrax I'm standing on a ledge cold and naked Will someone come and offer me their help Sometimes I forget my medication Sometimes I forget to pray I'll make it through this fuckin' day I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Count to ten and then I unwind it I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Take a deep breath and then I unwind it I'm wearing out my skin I'm under pressure Pressure makes me burn it makes me ache Sometimes I want to burn the things that make me... Sometimes I stop myself too late It's written all cross my face I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Count to ten and then I unwind it I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Take a deep breath and then I unwind it Wired, wired I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone This is how I live I never have to justify my actions Scathing rhetoric my saving grace Sometimes I really think that it's too noisy Sometimes I have to hit myself Words can kill as well as help I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Count to ten and then I unwind it I'm unconscious, drunk and blinded Take a deep breath and then I unwind it Wired, wired I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone This is how I live You can't touch me, ever Fear burns at my touch Standing on a ledge will you come and help Will you burn yourself, would you help me then Fear burns at my touch, in its wake An ugly jagged scar across your face I'm unconscious, I'm unconscious, I'm unconscious, I'm unconscious Count to ten, I'm unconscious Take a deep breath and then I unwind it Wired, wired I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, This is how I ... How I live, how I live, how I live, how I live I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, I'm in a zone, this is how I live

The songs posted in Me are personal anthems, whereas Rock and Roll Weekend has songs I like that set the mood, but aren't quite as personal. In the end I suppose they raise more questions than they answer. Oh well.

Point/Counterpoint - Streetlight Manifesto I've got a gun in my hand but that gun won't cock My finger's on the trigger but that trigger seems locked I can't stop staring at the tick-tock clock And even if I could I would never give up With a vest on my chest, a bullet in my lung I can't believe I'm dying with my song unsung And if and when I die won't you bury me alone? Because I'll never get to heaven if I'm singing this song: If there was something wrong would you be oh so strong? Would you do what it takes to move this hollow life along? I'd like to think I would, you know I'd like to think I would But I guarantee that what you see is not reality And every time she makes a point I make a counterpoint She said, "It's easy but in the end you'll have no choice, And you know that's only just the way it goes." (You said it right man, that is just the way it goes) And the days, and the days they seem like forever And the days, and the days they seem like forever But forever isn't ever enough I'd like to sing a song (promise you won't be long) I'll try not to be long but I don't want to get this story wrong There was a kid who never cared about the little things Don't even bother 'cause I'm tired and I'm sick of it And every time she makes a point I'll make a counterpoint She said, "It's easy but in the end you'll have no choice, and you know that's only just the way it goes." (You said it right man, that is just the way it goes) I've got a gun in my hand but that gun won't cock My finger's on the trigger but that trigger seems locked I can't stop staring at the tick-tock clock And even if I could I would never give up With a vest on my chest, a bullet in my lung I can't believe I'm dying with my song unsung And if and when I die won't you bury me alone? Because I'll never get to heaven if I'm singing this song: Oh, you don't know where I've been Oh, you don't know what I've seen If I did something right Would you give up this fight? Would you say you were wrong and maybe someone else was kind of right I'd like to think you would, you know I'd like to think you would But I can't guarantee that what you get is an apology Jump back to the day we met I never Thought that it would end this way if ever I let you down I want to ask of you To take it down a notch and we can talk it on through And the days, and the days they seem like forever And the days, and the days they seem like forever But forever isn't ever enough I'd like to sing a song (promise you won't be long) I'll try not to be long but i don't want to get this story wrong there was a chick who never cared about the little things don't bother 'cause i still don't give a shit and every time she makes a point i'll make a counterpoint she said it's easy but in the end you'll have no choice and you know that's only just the way it goes (you said it right man, that is just the way it goes) I've got a gun in my hand but that gun won't cock My finger's on the trigger but that trigger seems locked I can't stop staring at the tick-tock clock And even if I could I would never give up With a vest on my chest, a bullet in my lung I can't believe I'm dying with my song unsung And if and when I die won't you bury me alone? Because I'll never get to heaven if I'm singing this song: Oh, you don't know where I've been Oh, you don't know what I've seen So tell me friend: how's it going to end? When the shit goes down And there's no one left around to get your back You'll crack You'll smile and agree with everything they say They'll try to tell you that it's all okay But it's not and you're shot and you're bleeding pretty bad And you can't stop thinking about the things you never had Like a wife and a kid and the things you never did You're running around You're living a life that's empty in the end, my friend No, you'll take back all you've said Oh, when the regrets fill your head Trust me I've been there before I would not wish it upon my greatest enemy What irony Once friends, but I find: you'll have to learn this lesson on your own So I waited by the phone but that phone never rang And I sang so loud so I wouldn't hear the bang When the bang never came And I never got the call: Fuck it! Thank you! I love you all! Some are going to say that we're doomed to repeat All our past mistakes Great But that's not me And even if it was I would always disagree Because in the end I always get the better of me I've got a gun in my hand but that gun won't cock My finger's on the trigger but that trigger seems locked I can't stop staring at the tick-tock clock And even if I could I would never give up With a vest on my chest, a bullet in my lung I can't believe I'm dying with my song unsung And if and when I die won't you bury me alone? Because I'll never get to heaven if I'm singing this song: Oh, I'll take you where I've been Oh, I'll show you what I've seen

Theme song part one Behind blue eyes - The who No one knows what its like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes No one knows what its like To be hated To be fated To telling only lies But my dreams They arent as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance Thats never free No one knows what its like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams They arent as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance Thats never free When my fist clenches, crack it open Before I use it and lose my cool When I smile, tell me some bad news Before I laugh and act like a fool If I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat If I shiver, please give me a blanket Keep me warm, let me wear your coat No one knows what its like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes
