Lyrics that smoke - Manzilla

Manzilla

What a theme. How about a section entirely dedicated to lyrics that yell to who ever will listen that men aren't retards in tampon commercials. We eat breath and piss, so get the fuck out of the way. Of special interest are the long lost pick up lines, these are the greats.

"If you squeeze my lizard, I'll put my snake on you" - Killed by death, Motorhead.

The title is the best lyric, but "It don't make no difference" when you open a song with balls as big as that pick up line, you have my respect.

"I don't need no make up, I've got real scars. I've got hair on my chest, I look good without a shirt" - Goin' out west, Tom Waits.

A confident man is a thing to behold. Fucking shout it brothers. To me this is "I am woman hear me roar", with a penis.

"Maybe your other boyfriends couldn't pass the test, but if your rough and ready for love, honey I'm tougher than the rest." Tougher than the rest, Bruce Springsteen.

Oh I'll love you, but it might get rough. I think Tina Turner was looking for this guy earlier.

"Wrap your legs round these velvet rims and strap your hands across my engines." Born to run, Bruce Springsteen.

What does he mean by that, and will I be home for supper?

“I wonder, Honey, what do you do for money?” what do you do for money Honey, AC/DC.

I was wondering that myself. Put this in the list of great pick up lines.

"I wanna know if love is wild, babe I wanna know if love is real. Oh can you show me?" Born to run, Bruce Springsteen.

Totally unintentionally I have realized (with the last three lines) that all men, all of us, should ask out women like Bruce Springsteen. Fuck dinner, fuck flowers, be Bruce. Pussy's be damned, be Bruce.

"I wanna make every woman I see, maybe make a make a baby with me cause I'm a heterosexual man" - Heterosexual man, the odds.

The song was more than likely a bit tongue and cheek, but why the fuck not just sing it?

“Steal a car and go to Las Vegas.” Eyes without a face, Billy Idol.

This isn’t a good line, it’s just good advice. Get out there and steal a fucking car and go to Las Vegas.

“Now you the finest girl I ever saw in my life, I want to stick to you like white on rice” Let’s get it on, Ike & Tina Turner.

Pick up lines like this need to be dusted off and used again.

“Listen everybody, especially you girls” Can I get a witness, Marvin Gaye.

Marvin’s shout out to play the sensitive card is great. He sings to an entire room of women that he will love them right. The balls on this liar. Gotta love it.

Climb on the back we’ll go for a ride in the sky.” Jet, Wings.

I have doubts that this one would still work, but I like that he is trying new things.

“I'm lit and I don’t care what no one thinks, but where the fuck is the waitress at with my drinks?” Stand up, Ludacris.


I like getting lit too, and I can never find a waitress either.

“I got serious cash flow and you could break me girl if you could bend and touch the floor.” Can a nigga’ get a table dance, 2 Live Crew.


First the title/chorus is one of the great lines of all time. This line on the other hand just makes me laugh. I don’t care what I do, or where I go in life, I want to party with these guys once. You have to know this can out of an actual conversation they had at a club. The girls were all tied up and this guy was getting anxious and boom, you have one of the great songs of all-time. Bravo!

“More punks I smoke, yo my rep gets bigger. I’m a bad motherfucker and you know this.” Straight out of Compton, NWA.


Another in the long line of songs with “motherfucker” featured prominently that I love, but I really like the assertiveness of this line. I don’t like gun violence, nor do I like people who use guns to make them feel like “big” men. It’s weak. That said, I think this is a pretty ballsy line. This song is about as assertive as it gets. It is basically trash talking and for about 4 minutes. 3 guys talk about how they “will” kill you.

“You cunt, I’m not a queer.” My Way, Sex Pistols.


It’s funny more than anything. I wonder what Frank thought? Wait a minute, how did Sid, die again? New York City…You bastards, you blew it up, you maniac’s. Damn you, damn you all to hell!

"Don't you trust me?" - Me wise magic, Van Halen.


The whole debate about how much better this song is than anything Van Hagar did is irrelevant. When David Lee Roth asks if you trust him, you know something is up. Oh to be a fly on the wall.
