| Lets 'wax lyrical' folks!!!...yay. |
|
|
| ok guys,
here's a chance for you all to post some of your favourite song lyrics... or even some that you just think we'd like, or seem to fit people here well.
Let me start... this is from 'Slideshow' by Travis (only cos its the song I'm listening to right this minute, and the lyrics remind me of some of my other fave songs....)
Cause there is no 'Design for Life'
There's no 'Devils haircut' in your mind
There is not a 'Wonderwall' to climb, or step around.
But there is a Slideshow, and its so slow,
Flashing through my mind
Today is the day, but only for the first time
I hope its not the last time. |

| That was great.
I have my students in Writing Lab do something very similar. I call it a "Patchwork Quilt of Poetry".
The assignment is to chose a theme, and then select ten lines from muscial lyrics that fit the theme. After the lines have been selected, they must arrange them in a manner that is clear and makes sense.
Liam, you could be one of my students and I would give you an A+! |

| My turn..........
Okay, this is a song called "Magic's in the Makeup" by No Doubt -
(I can even tie this back to DC (good job Jenbrit :D ) since they actually performed this song during the 'Spiderwebs' episode of Season 6):
[i:dc5ff3dd84]If you bore me then I’m comfortable
If you interest me I’m scared
My attraction paralyses me
No courage to show my true colors that exist
But I want to be the real thing
But if you catch my eye can’t be authentic
The ones I loath are the one’s
That know me the best
My makeup’s all off
Who am i?
The magic’s in the makeup
Who am i? [/i:dc5ff3dd84] |

| I'll have to get back to you on that. But this song I love is by Avril Lavigne ( i luv her ) S8ter boi. The lyrics are so cool like this boy is not perfect , so this girl dumps him and Avril ends up with him because she accepts him for who he is.
[i:f6c9b632e6]He was a skater boi , she said to ya later boy
he wasnt good enough for her
she had a pretty face ,
but her head was up in space
she needed to come back down to earth.
then guitar.

| This one is from Neil Young
(For you non-rock and rollers; he's a real scary old guy with an interesting voice :lol: :lol: )
I love his songs, mainly the lyrics and guitar!
Ok...This one is for my buddy Dawson......
[u:a46e11ad7a]Love Is A Rose (Neil Young)[/u:a46e11ad7a]
[i:a46e11ad7a]Love is a rose
but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
when you say the word "mine".[/i:a46e11ad7a] |
