I am feeling very bored. So I have revived an old topic. Simply guess which song these lyrics are from. Or post your own lyrics and get people to guess which song they're from.

Mine: Good news for people who love bad news. We've lost the plot and we just can't choose. We are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move. And there's good news for people who love bad news. We are hummingbirds who've lost the plot and we will not move.

Can't say I know this for certain, but as I know they have an album of the same name, I'm going to guess 'Good News For People Who Love Bad News' by Modest Mouse.

The song is called 'Bury Me With It'. But it's from the album 'Good News For People Who Love Bad News'.

Es war um 1780
Und es war in Wien
No plastic money anymore
Die Banken gegen ihn
Woher die Schulden kamen
War wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein Mann der Frauen
Frauen liebten seinen Punk


Hahahaha, I think I just asserted my lameness XB.

Well if people want to ruin the game by using things like that it just takes the fun out of it for them.
Here's some new lyrics for you:

And this neglect has made it all clear to me,
The time has come to exit life gracefully,
(This is the way the universe ends,
This is the way the universe ends)
Proof of life is carbon,
I am everything you're not,
I'll leave to each other,
'Cause you share a single god

Ooh! Ooh! Me, me! I know this one! Jeez, I'm so sad.
Tub Ring - Death of the Robot, from Zoo Hypothesis. Not a great album, but passable.

Here's another:
Take away his shield.
Tear apart his standard.
Shouting, sanctify this holy lie.
Wash your face with tears.
Wash your hands with soil.
Wash away this holy lie.

Yeah, somebody said you were banned and lots of people started freaking out. I am glad that you are still with us.
