The Who - "The Dirty Jobs" / Quadrophenia

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter, anyhow
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now


You're city's a sucker my city's a creep

"Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" by Bob Dylan

"I wanna see you some day
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah
Oh glub glub, down down, yeah"

Where did you get that nice sun tan?"

"Atlantis" by Donovan

"When I clean the lash of your black-belt model
Will I catch the moon
Like a bird in a cage
It's for you I swoon"

It's Wilco's "I'm Always in Love"

And I’ve heard of pious men
And I’ve heard of dirty fiends
But you don’t often hear
Of us ones in between
And I’ve heard of creatures
Who eat their babies;
And I wonder if they stop
To think about the taste.

Us Ones In Between - Sunset Rubdown

Some of my favorite Spencer Krug lyrics are in that song...

How come the blacks, how come they copy you so good?
They get off on you, so...?
If you wanna make it
Young man you gotta make somebody come
Come out of your black [x2] and strong
Black! Strong! Black!

I don't wanna see this thread die (apparently I went a little overboard with my pick and I want to guess some more), so I've got a hint (another bit from the same song):

"Mama, I shot my self up!...down!...up!"

And here's a spoiler:
"Jesus? It's me, Iggy."

I'm guessing since Skirthy hasn't posted in a week that he's probably not going to be around to give us more lyrics. I'll throw in some more to keep the thread going.

"I'll break them down, no mercy shown
Heaven knows it's got to be this time
Watching her, these things she said
The times she cried
Too frail to wake this time"

Its alright i realise now i was meant to highlight it in yellow. I just kind of missed that.
oh well
hmmm
heres one of the verses

and then the tooth breaks, tooth breaks
you can bite down on your tongue and keep a tight smile, tight smile
stitched across on your practiced face
like it's all stupidly, stupidly right
and when you take down your notes each night
and then go back and erase what they say

Night at the Knight School by Thee More Shallows

Here's an extremely easy one, but it is one of my favorite songs ever, with one of the best guitar riffs ever:

I spoke to the Man down by the tracks
And I asked him how he don't go mad
He said Look here junior don't you be so happy
and for heavens sake don't you be so sad

Whoops, I'm slowing down the thread I've tried to keep movie.

Hint: This one is a duet: one is a country legend and the other would probably like to be.

Sorry Less, I haven't checked this in awhile because I'm usually not very good at it-- this one I happen to know (thanks for the hint). It's "Portland, Oregon" by Loretta White

"Well my friends say that I decieve myself
And that I contradict myself
And I can't say if they're right
But I'm not ashamed
Oh I can take a challenge
And so I won't die"

EDIT: I just listened to this and saw that I made a mistake in the first line. I've fixed it now.

Here's the first verse:

"My telephone never rings
She'd never call me
I hate myself today
But I can see through this bitterness and sadness
And so I won't die"

Hint #2: The next line after each of these two verses contains the title of the song.

Hint #3:

From a Boston proto-punk classic. The lead singer went on to have quite a cult following and is still very active.

English?



Kidding. I'm certain of the band, but not a 100% on the song. If you'd put up the lyrics to "Pablo Picasso" I would've known it.
