The Manics Lyric Swap thread
This is just a bit of fun to pass the time while we wait for futurology to land.
Take any manics lyrics from any song and create your own song! Covers or solo songs are not permitted!

Children can be cruel she said
So I smashed her round the fucking head Libraries gave us power It's not war just the end of love We dont want your fucking love I hope that you can forgive us Your love alone is not enough For sale, dumb cunts same dumb questions Stub cigarettes out on my arms Some kind of nothingness I write this alone on my bed I've poisoned every room in the house We dont want your fucking love I hope that you can forgive us Your love alone is not enough

Its easy to see its easy to see
The endless parade of old etonian scum 100,000 watch Giant Haystacks Tear the torso with horses and chains Chorus Repeat after me Brian Warner has a tasty little ass Alamoni Alamoni I want to walk in the snow and not leave a footprint But the futures like a corpes in snow In your culture of consumption Learn to live without clutter |

You're so fragile tonight
Bones broken up inside Assassinated beauty At least your lies will be pretty Destructive aesthetic It's the only thing I can digest Moral little shit-kickers Why don't you just ** Lose my only remaining home You've no wounds to show Skin so tense gives in So damn easy to cave in Destructive aesthetic It's the only thing I can digest Moral little shit-kickers Why don't you just ** |

Bad times are here to stay
Love can't fix the hole they made My unhappy mantra I wish I could escape The adult world took it all away

It Feels Like the Antarctic
I want to walk in the snow You stole the sun from my heart We love the winter Winter longing, falling free It feels like the Antarctic Lost on my own in the blazing sun Too cold here Too cold here And the sun will still keep rising Love's written on paper, and paper burns Freeze me there until I am numb Ice freezing nature dead It feels like the Antarctic Lost on my own in the blazing sun Too cold here Too cold here

Days since I last pissed
Right here in my dirty face My cheeks are turning yellow It’s so fucking funny don’t you know Sterile like a line of piss I am a victim of designer blitz Eyes bare piss-holes in the snow Where the Dodos roam with no place to go

My mash-up is a little bit different. You could call that cheating. Or maybe I'm just being smooth.
Haven't shaved for days Keeps the appearance of delay The luxury of one more dye Pretend humility, the ugly lie I would prefer no choice One bread, one milk, one food, that's all I'm confused, I only want one truth I really don't mind being lied to So picturesque! Picturesque, here tonight, So picturesque! Picturesque knowing ourselves... The shadow is, the shadow is a cross okay, But judgement must, judgement must be willing today, Silence is not sacrifice, crucifixion the easy life, Crucifixion the easy life... Embrace to betrayal An arms army salvation Listen to the selfish ones They are the voice of accomplishment Things are easy when the band has done half of the job already.

Love Like a Holocaust
Show me the wonder of your love I want the world to see all the love, security, my childhood dreams My idea of love comes from a childhood glimpse of pornography The love of your mother To keep love alive and lust beside Love rains down like Vietnam's leeches We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love It's not war, just the end of love Your love alone is not enough Loveless slavery, lips kissing empty I love you all the same I even love the devil Whispers, "I love you my darling" tonight We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love [short guitar solo] We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love We don't talk about love Last edited by Dancing Kirby; 26-04-2014 at 05:47. |

Postmodern masterpiece!
What's not to get? It's like lego, only instead of plastic bricks, you use lines from Manics lyrics. Well, that and you still have a nose.
