Lyrics that smoke - Damit, I'm with the worng person

The wrong Partner – Don’t love the one your with

“if you can’t be with the one you love, love the one your with” Generally speaking if you are in a dry spell this is good advice, but I think overall (life’s perspective) this is totally WRONG! It could be a commentary on settling not really being a bad thing, but is chucking your dream really ever good? Maybe they failed to see what they really wanted was right in front of them. Regardless, at the time it was a radical thing to say.

"I used her, she used me, but neither one cared" Night moves, Bob Seger.

All of this love affair prefexed with "and it was summer time, sweet summertime." Fuck what I just said, this is what life is about. Live dam it, Live!

I was in the wrong room. I was with the wrong woman - Leonard Cohen.

This is cheating a little bit, but it is still great. This line was in the liner notes of Leonard Cohen's first greatest hits album. Waking up and realizing your life is a sham is pretty sweet.

"She says the bible is all that she reads and prefers that I not use profanity your mouth was, so dirty" - Comfortable, John Mayer.

Sure he's a pussy, but the sentiment is all right. Still I have to wonder whether or not a girl wrote this for him. Hate the beautiful girl your currently sleeping with, angry sex, you idiot.

"She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man" - Pearl Jam, Betterman.

Probably true, we're few and far between.

"One night love affair, tryin' to make like we don't care. We were both reaching out for something." One night love affair, Bryan Adams.

That's basically it, if we could just grow a pair and act like adults, but how much fun would that be.

“If it feels this good getting used, you just keep on using me, until you use me up.” Use me, Bill Withers.


He’s right to an extent, but if your buddies tell you to let this one go, do it. It’s all fine for a while and then you’re a fucking purse.

“Stop playing with my heart, finish what you start, when you make my love come down. If you want me let me know. Baby let it show. Honey don’t you fool around.” Border Line, Madonna.

And now you know why Madonna became such a huge slut. Well done anonymous stranger, well done in deed.

“No matter how I think we grow you always seem to let me know it ain’t working, and when I try to walk away you hurt yourself to make me stay. This is crazy.” ex-factor, Lauren Hill.

It’s a great line, but I love the exacerbation of the “this is crazy”. I can't believe I am still fucking this guy. Again she gives us visuals. I see a slow motion fight, awesome.

“Outstrechted hands and one night stands, still I can’t find love.” God know why, Kid Rock.

Stop whining and get back in the game you're a rock star.

“Lying in Bedrooms is easy.” All uncovered, The Watchmen.

Sure but ask Queen what happens when you do. "Freddie, can you help me explain?"

You say you love me, and I hardly know your name. And if I say I love you in the candle light there’s no one but myself to blame.” It’s Late, Queen.

“The way you love me is the sweetest love around, but after all this time, the more I’m trying, the more I seem to let you down.” It’s Late, Queen.

“I can love you, but I know I can’t be true”. It’s Late, Queen.

“If I take you tonight is it making my life a lie? Oh you make me wonder, did I live my life right. It’s late, but it’s time to set me free.” It’s Late, Queen.


I lived this fucking song for three years and I found a little comfort in it (the song not the relationship), so it gets four quotes because I couldn’t decide on one.
