    My favourite Jet lyrics are the lyrics to 'Kings Horses' and my favourite lyrics ever are probably the lyrics to John Lennon's song 'Only People' or his song 'Imagine'

    JET lyrics... Beat on Repeat for the fun, but on the other side of the stick, Bring It On Back probably would be up there.
    Favourite lyrics ever? You Only Live Once by The Strokes ain't bad at all. Love a good reality song.
    I could go on, but then you'd be reading my post for a long time!

    I would have to say that my favorite JET lyrics belong to 'Hold On' or 'Move On'. Those two songs are really great, and I could never tire of them. My Favorite song of all time is 'Jungleland' by Bruce Springsteen. I mean seriously, he's a musical genius! That song flows like silk, and I'm absolutely head-over-heels in love with it! I mean, seriously, read this:
    Beneath the city two hearts beat
    Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked
    In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown
    The rats own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in the
    Night
    No one watches when the ambulance pulls away
    Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light

    Outside the streets on fire in a real death waltz
    Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
    Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
    And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
    And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
    Tonight in jungleland

    I mean, HOW GREAT IS THAT? I'm in LOVE! hahaha

    My favorite lyrics are from "Come Around Again." I'm always kicking around something in my head.

    You promise me you'd always be
    When I wake up please come around again
    Come around again
    You promised me you'd always be
    When I wake up please come around again
    Come around again

    Yeah there's something I was thinking about
    Get it out of my head
    Yeah there's something I was kicking around
    Somethin' you said
    I don't know when I'm right
    I only know when I'm wrong
    When you gonna leave some light to show it all
    And keep the lights from going off
    Coz I don't see

    Yeah I'm waitin' for you, it's been so long
    Yeah I'm lost but I'm at home
    They said it takes a long long time
    If it's not too much
    Could you hear me now

    I am a HUGE fan of 'Falling Star', 'You Don't Look the Same', 'Everything will be Alright', and 'Hold On'. They remind me of Goats Head Soup by the Stones and Face to Face by the Kinks, that is when these respective groups began to move into a new direction from the raucous rock and roll that propelled them to international fame and began to experiment with a fusion of different genres, kinda like Shaka Rock now.

    Falling Star
    Wake! You've been sleeping
    And tell me what do you believe in
    Wake! You've been sleeping
    You've pushed too far now you're bleeding
    You Fell So Far
    you should have been a star.


    You Don't Look the Same
    And i don't know why you can't lose, you lose
    the rest of us we have to choose, we do
    but you don't look the same
    you don't seem the same
    cause in my dreams you fall apart
    you come and tell me who are you
    the past is overdue
    all i hear are the same excuses
    all you do is complain


    Everything Will be Alright
    Tel me tell me again will it ever end
    Nothing seems to come out right
    It doesn't come out right
    Ain't it the truth
    No where to run no end in sight
    Tell everyone that you're are right
    All of this life I never meant to tell a lie
    And if I can hold you I tell you its alright

    Hold On
    You tried so hard to be someone
    That you forgot who you are
    You tried to fill some emptiness
    ‘Til all you had spilled over
    Now everything’s so far away
    That you don’t know where you are, you are

    Cheers,
    CLT
