Lyrics Quiz
Because everyone else appears to be doing it, which is as good a mob-mentality reason as any. So, ten sets of lyrics, possibly arranged, not necessarily in order of difficulty, more vaguely in the order of how impressed I'll be if you get them right. As usual, no googling, and I'll edit when correct guesses are made.
First one's dead easy, and you only have to say where it comes from:
Take me out, into the black,
Tell them I ain't coming back.
Burn the land, boil the sea,
You can't take the sky from me.
- Firefly theme, guessed by Erfalaswen and Weasel
Next one's a dead give-away as well:
legt sich schmerzend auf die Brust
das Gleichgewicht wird zum Verlust
lasst dich hart zu Boden gehen
und die Welt zahlt laut bis zehn!
- Sonne, by Rammstein, guessed by blue_eyed_son (lj)
Who's gonna teach you how to dance?
Who's gonna show you how to fly?
Who's gonna call you on the lame-dope-smoking,
Slackin' little sucker you are?
- Powertrip, by Monster Magnet, guessed by blue_eyed_son (lj)
Yeah, all the stars drip down like butter,
Promises are sweet.
We hold out our pans, lift our hands to catch them.
We eat them up, drink them up, up, up, up.
- Let Me In, by REM, guessed by blue_eyed_son (lj)
Cast the pearls aside,
Of a simple life of need.
Come into my life forever
I know you said you don't believe
In God; we used to disagree.
Now that it's time for you to leave,
G-L-O-R-I-A
Nothing on the top
But a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds.
- Plateau, by The Meat Puppets (covered by Nirvana), guessed by blue_eyed_son (lj)
Are you hungry? Are you sick?
Are you begging for a break?
Are you sweet? Are you fresh?
Are you strung up by the wrists?
- We Suck Young Blood, by Radiohead, guessed by blue_eyed_son (lj)
And in a similar theme:
Cutting boards and hangin hooks,
Bloody knives, cooking books
Promising
You won't feel a thing
At all.
With the bombed out cars
Come the falling stars
From a heaven we'll never know,
And the nameless names
On the misspelled graves grow tall...
Good luck.
Proper update at some point.
