Jack96 Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 J.A.R "I think it's all right that I do what I like cause that's the way I wanna live"Yeah thats good but id say the whole song is awesome!
Miqui_Dee Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 Technically, if you were to quote from a Pinhead Gunpowder song, it would be quoting Aaron Cometbus and not Billie Joe, so I'll refrain from quoting from Pinhead Gunpowder although I do love Aaron with all my heart. My favorite line is "Stranded lost inside myself My own worst friend And my own closest enemy" because of how it describes the battles you have with yourself. Billie's such a lyrical genius. It's hard to narrow down to a few favorite lines.

Ila Reto Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 ^ yep. i never even heard the song, but i loved those lyrics. they kept buzzing around in my head. and now i feel great every time i hear that part. p.s., nice sig. you make it yourself?
Fauxfink Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 you said a line so I'm actually going to follow the prompt and go with "It's not what you make, It's what you leave"
Jack96 Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 " it dont take a genius to be an idiot, it dont take a jesus to save my soul "Foxboro Hot Tubs - The PedestrianNice sig

Ila Reto Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 "we're living in repetition, content in the same of shick again."yep. just thinking about a few things, and i am there.
BabsBurnoutGirl Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 mmmMaybe the entire Green Day song?Maybe just because the hit in the beginning makes me want some
Farah Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 "Jimmy Died! Today" i love that bit from homecomming =P
Jack96 Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 "Jimmy Died! Today" i love that bit from homecomming =Pi guess you dont like jimmy
fuefue Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 i guess you dont like jimmy Well I love that part, too. Maybe not because of the lyrics, but because of the way it's sung. There's so much passion and pain at the same time in Billie's voice that makes me adore it.'well, hell hounds on your trail now once again, boy, it's groping on your leg until it sleeps. The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrow, cause it's not what you make, it's what you leave.""wish in one hand, shit in the other and see which one gets filled first"there are many more, it's hard to chose...
Hermione Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 "we're living in repetition, content in the same of shick again."yep. just thinking about a few things, and i am there. I must say, my sister and I believe that while we already adore Redundant, the fact he uses the wonderful word "shtick" increases it's greatness by 100%
Farah Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 i guess you dont like jimmy Haha!! that really made me laugh xDbut i just love the way he sings it !
Laura33 Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I must say, my sister and I believe that while we already adore Redundant, the fact he uses the wonderful word "shtick" increases it's greatness by 100% I always giggle a little like a 14 year old when the Redundant video comes on. Because you can't see what his hands are doing most of the time so you just see his arms moving and it looks... suspicious XD I need a life.A few more that I loveOr did he hide away from hopesBehind a smile and smoking dope - AndroidAre you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?Are you feeling like a social tool without a use? -ShePunched out of the grindThat punched her one too many times...Is tragedy 2000 miles away?- Westbound Sign
Fefi Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I have a lot...JOSThe motto was just a lieIt says home is where your heart isBut what a shameCause everyone´s heartDoesn´t beat the sameIt´s beating out of timeLetterbombStanding still when it's do or dieYou better run for your fucking lifeIt's not over 'till you're undergroundIt's not over before it's too lateThis city's burnin'It's not my burdenIt's not over before it's too lateSheAre you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?Are you feeling like a social tool without a use?Scream at me until my ears bleed.I'm taking heed in just for you.who wrote holden caulfield? There's a boy who fogs his world and now he's getting lazythere's no motivation and frustration makes him crazyHe makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sittingSomeone help him up or he's gonna end up quittingsorry if is too much
greendaytone Posted July 12, 2008 Author Posted July 12, 2008 "Don't pat yourself on the back you might break your spine"I like to list to Nice Guys Finish Last to remind be to stop being too nice some times... your sympathy does get you left behind... unfortunately.

Hermione Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I always giggle a little like a 14 year old when the Redundant video comes on. Because you can't see what his hands are doing most of the time so you just see his arms moving and it looks... suspicious XD I need a life.Bwahaha, that's exactly the kind of thing I never forget. I know I'll now think that every single time I watch the video or hear the song. A permanent edition to the long list in my mind of hidden Green Day filth
J'net Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I am loving this thread, not least because when my favorite lyrics jump out at me just being in this mind set makes them stick a little longer. Just heard this one, with which I always identify (bull-in-a-china-shop as I am). I don't think I've seen it in here yet, but my memory's getting a bit hazy.Come together like a foot in a shoeOnly this time I think I stuck my foot in my mouth (from Walking Alone)
Adrii1039 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 "I beg to dream and differ from the hallow lies""Marching out of time, to my own beat now!""Is there any cure for this disease someone called love?""Downtown lights will be shining on me like a new diamond""I'm not part of your elite I'm just alright. Class structure waving colors bleeding from my throat""Standing still when its do or die. You better run for your fucking life!!"
