No, that second part is from that other song of his. Candy Shop goes:
"Erererererere bla bla Candy Shop
Ereererereerere bla bla bla hippedy hop
Mumble mumble suck my cock, ho"
Originally posted by Darth RevanWell actually the original was sorta a party song..
Renegades of Funk isn't a party song. It's a "let's-go-burn-suburbia-and-kill-cops" song. It's fun to listen to, but there is a rather serious subject matter under there. Besides which, I can't imagine why you would post a "partay song" in a thread about lyrics with meaning.
Tool -- Parabola
We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Choosing to be here in
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.
Alive, I
In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.
Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing.
This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion.
Good bump, Anal 馃憜
Love this song, Bis is a great story-teller when he doesn't brag. Plus the beats on this track are really good, even for Stoupe.
Canibus - No Return
No return...
[Verse One]
Yo, scientists gather in a secret place to debate
They photographed the Earth from space and saw my face
They tried to translate the innate asiatic shape
Before the final earthquakes came but it was too late
Only one eighth of the human race escaped to space
They were chased by flying phenomenon to the lunar base
Floatillas and space centers, lasers probed the entrance
DNA code sensors reject old genetics
I presented my cosmic clearance to a patrol of medics
I was injected with sodium pentathol and questioned
I relayed the message the way I was trained to remember it
I showed them the keypad code and told 'em to enter it
I told 'em which alphanumeric buttons were sensitive
He snatched it outta my hand and started depressing it
I told him detonation was definite if he kept at it
He never quit, he just lost his temper and flipped
I bowed my head like "I guess this is it"
My ears popped, the music stopped, and I couldn't hear shit.
[Hook]
[Verse Two]
The driver jogged around to the front and opened the door
He said his name was Muhammed Jamal and he'd be with me 'till fall
He said the escort service had called
and a package would be waitin for me at the window
I said thanks, he grabbed my bags fast and put 'em in the trunk
Then he ran around to the front, slammed it in gear
Pulled off slow, winding down his window
and asked me if I minded if he smoke, I said no, he drove off
Cut my cell phone off, then I swallowed a tablet of Zoloft
Went to sleep and woke up feelin' kinda lost
I asked him what the weather's been like lately
he said he doesn't mind the heat and hates the A/C
Said he had a son who was eighteen and made beats
and I happened to be his favorite emcee
I said for real, that's crazy, I meet him later
Yo Jamal could you please do me a favor
When we get to the corner stop at the bodega
Hopped out the car, walked inside
the store's stereo was playin' Feliz Navidad
I got a pack of condoms and walked to the back of the line
There was three Taliban that was talkin' very loud
One reached in his back side and pulled out a Beretta gun
The last word I heard myself say was a four letter one
He looked me in the eye and said the drama's never done
Cuz there's no return...no return
[Hook]
[Verse Three]
I heard the ringtone of the red phone
Headquarters informed us there was an explosion in the red zone
We were ordered to get ready to go
and to get into our bio-weapons protective gear and clothes
I rode shotgun, my partner Ramirez drove
GPS control gave us coordinates where to go
Soon as we got there I could feel the hot air
For a second I stopped and stared, there was cops everywhere
I told 'em we need to get a square perimeter clear
We got an hour 'till nightfall, so light some flares
I said a twenty second prayer then ran to the second chair-
the lift that was there, then I waved my hands up in the air
to signal that it was clear before I ran upstairs
I could barely see, smoke was so thick in the air
I was visually impaired and started to get scared
I heard a woman scream "HELP" but I didn't know where
I started screamin' back "I'm not gonna leave you here"
Sayin to myself "damn it's hard to breathe in here"
Searched the rooms one by one like "**** my lungs"
Ramirez said the fire truck got stuck by the front
I crawled all the way through the foyer to the end of the hallway
and seen her on the floor next to the doorway
I was half unconscious but I just ignored the pain
Helped her to her feet and she had her arm in a brace
All this tar-like black stuff was all in her face
I radio Ramirez coughin and tried to explain
I heard him say something to me like "It's all in flames!"
There was ceiling debris fallin all over the place
I looked her in her eye, she looked into mine, it was strange
Then I blinked for the last time and never saw her again.

Yeah I got it last week, disappointing weren't it. Although I wouldn't call it really bad, really average I'd say.
Dave Davies - Nothin' More To Lose
(Published by: DABE Music Limited, London, 1980)
Get out of that house, Stop watching T.V.
Have you heard the news, Well there's a new world here and it's staring
straight at you,
Don't want no politics, Religion too. They've got nothing left to prove
Well my heart's beatin' rhythm and my soul keeps singin' the blues,
I know we can make it happen, Anytime we want it to,
I know we can make it happen,
Now it's all up to you.
Chorus
We got nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose.
We're so proud of our intellect, Arrogant selfish fools
Who can look no further than A bunch of separative rules.
Well if we're all so clever and technology rules, Why is it we're so scared.
I got a rockin' psychosis and my juke box blown a fuse.
Don't look there's someone watching, Though they're many light years away.
Don't stop, They may be listening to every single word you say.
Chorus
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose.
Can you feel something strange in your heart
In your brain,
But it's not what you think.
You're just waking out of sleep.
Chorus
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose.
I know we can make it happen,
Anytime we want it to,
I know we can make it happen,
Now it's all up to you.
Chorus
You got nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose,
Nothing more to lose.
Can you feel something strange in your heart
In your brain,
Nothing more to lose.
Schism
I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, fundamental differing
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers' souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes, testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so
We cannot see to reach an end, crippling our communication
I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame, it doesn't mean I don't desire
To point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication
The poetry that comes from the squarin' off between
And the circling is worth it, finding beauty in the dissonance
There was a time that the pieces fit but I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of a second guessing
Doomed to crumble unless we grow and strengthen our communication
Cold silence has
A tendency to
Atrophy any
Sense of compassion
Between supposed brothers
Between supposed lovers
I know the pieces fit, I know the pieces fit
I know the pieces fit, I know the pieces fit
I know the pieces fit, I know the pieces fit
I know the pieces fit, I know the pieces fit
