The problem is all inside your head she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must fifty ways to leave your lover...

[Ginormousaurus]

Hey man, look at here
We got Jesus, he's drinkin' beer
He's playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's drinkin' whiskey and he beats his wife

Do That Thing by The Headstones

[yingwenlaoshi]

I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

[Tarmangani]

I should,
Kick you,
Beat you,
F**k you,
And then shoot you in your f**king head.

[Are they the lemmings]

She comes back to tell me she's gone
As if I didn't know that, as if I didn't know my own bed
As if I'd never noticed
They way she brushed her hair from her forehead

All by the Decemberists:

I'm a money lender
I have fortunes upon fortunes
Take my hand for tender
I am tortured, ever tortured

-The Engine Driver

And I am nothing of a builder
But here I dreamt I was an architect
And I built this balustrade
To keep you home, to keep you safe
From the outside world
But the angles and the corners
Even though my work is unparalleled
They never seemed to meet
This structure fell about our feet
And we were free to go

-Here I Dreamt I was an Architect

This is the story of your red right ankle
And how it came to meet your leg
And how the muscle bone and sinews tangled
And how the skin was softly shed
And how it whispered,
"Oh, adhere to me for we are bound by symmetry
And whatever differences our lives have been
We together make a limb"
This is the story of your red right ankle

-Red Right Ankle

The four-line rule seems to have been ditched, so I'm weighing in with this classic verse from Queens 'Fat Bottomed Girls'.

I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad,
But I knew life before I left my nursery,
Left alone with big fat Fanny,
She was such a naughty nanny!
Hey big woman you made a bad boy out of me!
Hey, hey!

Great stuff!

Leonard Cohen, One Of Us Cannot Be Wrong....

I lit a thin green candle, to make you jealous of me.
But the room just filled up with mosquitos,
they heard that my body was free.

Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
and I put it in your little shoe.

And then I confess that I tortured the dress
that you wore for the world to look through.
I showed my heart to the doctor: he said I just have to quit.

a tad longer than four, but it needed the extra bit....

Nina Simone - Pirate Jenny

You gentlemen can wipe off that smile off your face
Cause every building in town is a flat one
This whole frickin' place will be down to the ground
Only this cheap hotel standing up safe and sound
And you yell, "Why do they spare that one?"


Sorry for the extra line....

Why ponder life's complexities
When the leather runs smooth
On the passenger seat ?



Also, I like this a lot:

(cure)
"i think it's dark and it looks like rain" you said
"and the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world" you said
"and it's so cold it's like the cold if you were dead"
and then you smiled for a second.

This'll only hurt for a little while
I'll only put the head of it in
and I promise that I'll never come in your mouth!

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?

and i'm welcome no more."
