• Titre : New slang - The Shins
• Album : Oh, Inverted World
• Année : 2001

Paroles :

Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
Only, i don't know how they got out, dear.
Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
I was happier then with no mind-set.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, I'd 'a jumped from my tree
And I'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

New slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
Hope it's right when you die, old and bony.
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
Never should have called
But my head's to the wall and I'm lonely.

And if you'd 'a took to me like
A gull takes to the wind.
Well, I'd 'a jumped from my tree
And I'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

God speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
And bleed into their buns 'till they melt away.

I'm looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find.
Without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine?
And if you'd 'a took to me like
Well I'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.

• Titre : My Mistakes Were Made For You - The Last Shaddow Puppets
• Album : The Age Of The Understatement
• Année : 2008

Paroles :

About as subtle as an earthquake I know,
My mistakes were made for you
And in the backroom of a bad dream she came
And whisked me away enthused

And it's as solid as rock rolling down a hill,
The fact is that it probably will hit something
On the hazardous terrain
And we're just following the flock around
And in-between
Before we're smashed to smithereens
Like they were
Then we scramblefrom the blame
And it, the fame that put words in her mouth,
She couldn't help but spit them out,
Innocence and arrogance entwined,
In the filthiest of minds

She was bitten on her birthday and now,
A face in the crowd she's not
And I suspect that now forever the shape she
Came to escape is forgot
And it's a lot to ask her not to sting and give
Her less than everything,
Around your crooked conscience she will wind

• Titre : Good People - Jack Johnson
• Album : In Between Dreams
• Année : 2005

Paroles :

You win
It's your show, now
So what's it gonna be
'Cause people
Will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
It's bad getting worse so

[Chorus:]
Where'd all the good people go?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that and
With a rattle a tat
Testing one two,
Now what you gonna do?
Bad news, misused,
Got too much to lose
Gimme some truth
Now whose side are we on?
Whatever you say
Turn on the boob tube
I'm in the mood to obey
So lead me astray by the way, now

Where'd all the good people go?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

Sitting round feeling far away
So far away but I can feel the debris
Can you feel it?
You interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great its all gonna be
You might notice some hesitation
'Cause it's important to you, it's not important to me
Way down by the edge of your reasons
It's beginning to show
And all I really wanna know is...

Where'd all the good people go?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow

They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing one, two
Now what you gonna do?
Bad news, misused, give me some truth
You got too much to lose
Whose side are we on today, anyway?
OK, whatever you say.
Wrong and resolute but in the mood to obey
Station to station desensitizing the nation
Going, going, gone.

If you feel like a liar
If you're about to leave me
If you can't sleep at night

If my bed songs upset you
And if my arms can't warm you
You just have to try

I am such a coward
I could win an award
You may not believe me
But it would be ok

Did you know you're still crying
Did you know that we all did
Is it paradise?

I'm just waiting for the day
That I will find a letter
On the bedroom door

I am such a coward
I could win an award
You may not believe me
But it would be ok.

Thursday night,
everything's fine,
Except you've got that look in your eyes,
when I'm telling a story
And you find it boring your thinking of something to say.
You'll go along with and then drop it
And you Humiliate me, in front of our friends.

Then I'll use that voice what you find annoyin'
And say something like
"intelligent input darlin' why don't you just have another beer then?"

Then you call me a bitch and everyone we're with will be embarrassed,
and I won't give a shit.

My fingertips are holding onto the
cracks in our foundations,
and I know that I should let go,
but I can't.
And everytime we fight I know its not right,
everytime that your upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't.

You said I must eat so many lemons,
'cause I am so bitter.
I said "I'd rather be with your friends mate,
cause they are much fitter"

Yes it was childish
and you got aggressive
and I must admit that I was a bit scared,
but it gives me thrills to wind you up.

My fingertips are holding onto the
Cracks in our foundations,
and I know that I should let go,
but I can't.
And everytime we fight,
I know its not right,
every time that your upset and I smile,
I know I should forget,
but I can't.

Your face is pasty,
'Cause you've gone and got so wasted,
what a surprise,
don't want to look at your face,
'cause its making me sick.

You've gone and got sick on my trainers,
I only got these Yesterday.
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this.

Well I'll leave you there till the mornin',
and I purposely won't turn the heating on
and dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one.

My fingertips are holding onto the
Cracks in our foundations,
and I know that I should let go,
but I can't.
And everytime we fight,
I know its not right,
every time that your upset and I smile,
I know I should forget,
but I can't.

And every time we fight I know it's not right,
every time that you're upset and I smile.
I know I should forget, but I can't.
