LYRIC QUOTES

• Life is like a beautiful melody, only the lyrics are messed up.
  ~ Anonymous ~
• Never listen to the lyrics of failure.. The music comes To life...
  ~ Mary Francisca ~
• It is no longer possible for lyric poetry to express the immensity of our experience. Life has grown too cumbersome, too complicated. We have acquired values which are best expressed in prose.
  ~ Boris Pasternak ~
• So we're considering doing a new Christmas album, because there's been Christmas episodes since then, and maybe finally do the version of 'The Most Offensive Song Ever' with lyrics intact.
  ~ Trey Parker ~
• I have always wanted what I have now come to call the voice of personal narrative. That has always been the appealing voice in poetry. It started for me lyrically in Shakespeare's sonnets.
  ~ Diane Wakoski ~
• I try to write lyrics so that they won't age, which sort of leaves you with the big subjects like death and love and sex and violence.

• How can you consider flower power outdated? The essence of my lyrics is the desire for peace and harmony. That's all anyone has ever wanted. How could it become outdated?

• Also, because people like to multitask, in a way if you've got a bit of music on in the background and the lyrical content is making you want to listen to it, then that would probably put you off the texting you wanted to do. I think people like things that just make that right kind of noise, but leave your brain free to do something else.
  ~ Jarvis Cocker ~
• I like reading Ball Tongue lyrics and all that stuff. And they published a book, and I wouldn't give my lyrics, and it's all wrong in the book, and I giggle. It's funny.
  ~ Jonathan Davis ~
• I have one piece of music, since 1997, and I don't see it having lyrics. Where does it go in this world? So I haven't recorded it.
  ~ Joni Mitchell ~
• Adam does most of the work when it comes to videos and he basically does the same as I do with the lyrics. The videos are his visual interpretations of our music.
  ~ Maynard James Keenan ~
• I never really liked poetry readings I liked to read poetry by myself, but I liked singing, chanting my lyrics to this jazz group.
  ~ Leonard Cohen ~
• Imagination is the key to my lyrics. The rest is painted with a little science fiction.
  ~ Jimi Hendrix ~

• Lyrics are the only thing to do with music that haven't been made easier technically.
  ~ Brian Eno ~
• Lyrics are always misleading because they make people think that that's what the music is about.
  ~ Brian Eno ~
• The lyrics are constructed as empirically as the music. I don't set out to say anything very important.
  ~ Brian Eno ~
• I rate Morrissey as one of the best lyricists in Britain. For me, he's up there with Bryan Ferry.
  ~ David Bowie ~
• When I was younger, I was terrified to express anger because it would often kick-start a horrible reaction in the men in my life. So I bit my tongue. I was left to painstakingly deal with the aftermath of my avoidance later in life, in therapy or through the lyrics of my songs.
  ~ Alanis Morissette ~
