95. Aw, I thought you meant this one:
Gwar
Sick Of You

Your socks they smell, your feet they stink,
You never take a bath.
Your nose it runs, you bust your buns,
You always finish last.

Sick! (Sick) Of!
(Of) Youuuuu.
I'm so sick, so sick of you.
Your face is gross, you eat white toast,
You don't know what to do.
It's just your luck, you really suck,
That's all - I'm sick of you

(Bring it down... I said bring it down! Thank you)
Don't ya know? So sick of you.
Things you say, and all the things you do.

Human filth.. Sick!

8. Death on Two Legs by Queen
Words and music by Freddie Mercury

You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money
And you want more
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies
Who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart of your own
Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry
You're just an old barrow boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me?
Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good are you satisfied?
Do you feel like suicide?
(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?

You talk like a big business tycoon
You're just a hot air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You're just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease
You're the king of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is
Mister know-all
Was the fin on your back
Part of the deal? (Shark)
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart (you never did) of your own
(Right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good

15. "Bad Reputation" - Joan Jett and The Blackhearts
Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 01:27 PM by DinahMoeHum
(Roll down your car window and turn the music LOUD for this one!)

I don’t give a damn ’bout my reputation
You’re living in the past it’s a new generation
A girl can do what she wants to do and that’s
What I’m gonna do
An’ I don’t give a damn ’ bout my bad reputation

Oh no not me

An’ I don’t give a damn ’bout my reputation
Never said I wanted to improve my station
An’ I’m only doin’ good
When I’m havin’ fun
An’ I don’t have to please no one
An’ I don’t give a damn
’bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don’t give a damn
’bout my reputation
I’ve never been afraid of any deviation
An’ I don’t really care
If ya think I’m strange
I ain’t gonna change
An’ I’m never gonna care
’bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

Pedal boys!

An’ I don’t give a damn
’bout my reputation
The world’s in trouble
There’s no communication
An’ everyone can say
What they want to say
It never gets better anyway
So why should I care
’bout a bad reputation anyway
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me

I don’t give a damn ’bout my bad reputation
You’re living in the past
It’s a new generation
An’ I only feel good
When I got no pain
An’ that’s how I’m gonna stay
An’ I don’t give a damn
’bout my bad reputation

Oh no, not me
Oh no, not
Not me, not me

- Joan Jett, Jeff Laguna, et.al.

Another tough song by BFF is "Last Waltz"

The line "Baby I was doing fine, how do you think that I survived, the other twenty five before you" is classic.

29. John Lee Hooker was the ultimate bad ass
The man was left off the Blues Brothers soundtrack because he was too black. Currently thinking of his song where he says he's bad like Jesse James but the title escapes me.

30. Nazareth "Hair of the Dog"
Heart breaker, soul shaker

Steamroller, midnight stroller
What they’ve been saying must be true

Bridge:

Red hot mama
Velvet charmer
Time’s come to pay your dues

Chorus:

Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch

Talkin’ jivey, poison ivy
You ain’t gonna cling to me
Man taker, born faker
I ain’t so blind I can’t see

Bridge

Chorus

Pipes solo

Chorus

40. "Don't Look Back" by the Remains
(Actually, it's mostly on my mind because I just posted on the thread about what CD we most recently listened to and mine is the first disc of the Nuggets compilation...) Really, though, what an all-around kick-ass song. I love so many things about it. It's definitely one of the singles that it most amazes me that it managed to miss the Hot 100 upon its release.

44. "Trouble" by Elvis
If you're looking for trouble
You came to the right place
If you're looking for trouble
Just look right in my face
I was born standing up
And talking back
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me

I've never looked for trouble
But I've never ran
I don't take no orders
From no kind of man
I'm only made out
Of flesh, blood and bone
But if you're gonna start a rumble
Don't you try it on alone
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me
I'm evil, evil, evil, as can be
I'm evil, evil, evil, as can be
So don't mess around don't mess around don't mess around with me
I'm evil, I'm evil, evil, evil
So don't mess around, don't mess around with me
I'm evil, I tell you I'm evil
So don't mess around with me
Yeah!

50. And it goes a little something like this:
Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds
I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down
I went right home and I went to bed
I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head

Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run
Made a good run but I ran too slow
They overtook me down in Juarez, Mexico

Late in the hot joints takin' the pills
In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown
You're the dirty heck that shot your woman down

Said yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee
If you've got the warrant just a-read it to me
Shot her down because she made me sore
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more

When I was arrested I was dressed in black
They put me on a train and they took me back
Had no friend for to go my bail
They slapped my dried up carcass in that county jail

Early next mornin' bout a half past nine
I spied the sheriff coming down the line
Ah, and he coughed as he cleared his throat
He said come on you dirty heck into that district court

Into the courtroom my trial began
Where I was handled by twelve honest men
Just before the jury started out
I saw the little judge commence to look about

In about five minutes in walked the man
Holding the verdict in his right hand
The verdict read murder in the first degree
I hollered Lawdy Lawdy, have a mercy on me

The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen
99 years in the Folsom pen
99 years underneath that ground
I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down

Come on you've gotta listen unto me
Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be

55. "Affronte-moi" by Johnny Hallyday
A primal beat with some big brass. Though I haven't bothered to listen to the lyrics and attempted to translate them, yet.

"Soul Vaccination" also has to get a mention.

Although I was going to say "Frankenstein" by Edgar Winter.

ed. Edgar, not Johnny, as noted above.

68. You've never heard Hollaback Girl?
I let you decide...

Hollaback Girl Lyrics
Artist(Band):Gwen Stefani


Uh huh, this my shit
All the girls stomp your feet like this

Chorus :
A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
'cause I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl

ooooo this my-,this my shit

I heard that you were talking-,And you didn't think that I would hear it
People hear you talking like that, getting everybody fired up
So I'm ready to attack, gonna lead the pack
Gonna get a touchdown, gonna take you out
That's right, put your pom-poms down, getting everybody fired up

Chorus :
Few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl

ooooo this my-,this my shit

So that's right dude, meet me at the bleachers
No principals, no student-teachers
Both of us wanna be the winner, but there can only be one
So I'm gonna fight, gonna give it my all
Gonna make you fall, gonna sock it to you
That's right, I'm the last one standing, and another one bites the dust

Chorus :
Few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
'cause I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl

ooooo this my-,this my shit

let me hear you say:
the shit is bananas B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Chorus :
A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Because I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl

ooooo this my-,this my shit

I knew Link, and would see him when he got to NY. He was the father of psychedelic guitar. So bad that he died this year.:cry:

82. "Memo From Turner" (M Jagger in "Performance), baddest lyrics,ever
with killer slide work by Ry Cooder

MEMO FROM TURNER (London Years/Performance version)
(Jagger/Richards)

Didn't I see you down in San Antone on a hot and dusty night?
We were eating eggs in Sammy's when the black man there drew his knife.
Aw, you drowned that Jew in Rampton as he washed his sleeveless shirt,
You know, that Spanish-speaking gentlemen, the one we all called "Kurt."

Come now, gentleman, I know there's some mistake.
How forgetful I'm becoming, now you fixed your bus'ness straight.

I remember you in Hemlock Road in nineteen fifty-six.
You're a faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of stick.
You're a lashing, smashing hunk of man;
Your sweat shines sweet and strong.
Your organs working perfectly, but there's a part that's not screwed on.

Weren't you at the Coke convention back in nineteen sixty-five
You're the misbred, grey executive I've seen heavily advertised.
You're the great, gray man whose daughter licks policemen's buttons clean.
You're the man who squats behind the man who works the soft machine.

Come now, gentleman, your love is all I crave.
You'll still be in the circus when I'm laughing, laughing on my grave.

When the old men do the fighting and the young men all look on.
And the young girls eat their mothers meat from tubes of plasticon.
Be wary of these my gentle friends of all the skins you breed.
They have a tasty habit - they eat the hands that bleed.

So remember who you say you are and keep your noses clean.
Boys will be boys and play with toys so be strong with your beast.
Oh Rosie dear, doncha think it's queer, so stop me if you please.
The baby is dead, my lady said, "You gentlemen, why you all work for me?"

There are two different versions. The one on the Metamorphosis album is kind of slower. My copy of the best version is from an import album (from Holland I think).

93. Twilight Zone-Golden Earring
(G.Kooymans)

(somewhere in a lonely hotel room,
There's a guy starting to realize
That eternal fate has turned its back on him,
It's two a.m...........)

It's two a.m., the fear has gone
I'm sittin' here waitin', the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
I'm wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
I cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know,
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
A double-crossed messenger, all alone
I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

97. I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I SNUB YOU!!
You are a moron
I’m glad to be here
Seeing the sight of you
Smelling the smell of you

You most deplorable glaring example
Of a degenerate narcotic influence
My seething hate is driving me nuts
What can I do to obliterate you

I snub you
I really hope you’re one of a kind
You don’t care who you brutalize
You are a bully plain and simple

You are a beast you are a pig
You’ve been a pig for long enough now
I’m making my move
I’m making an end to you

I snub you
And when I snub
I really snub
I snub you finally, forever

Is she really going out with him?
Now is the time
I’m playing my ace
I’ll give you a mouthful you can’t swallow

Unquestionably I’ve been lacking in taste
You’re being cheerful but not for long
Your mum and dad they sure made a mess
You’re going to look like watercress

When I snub you
He snubs you
We snub you
Dogs snub you
I snub you
