Dave Song Repeated Themes

Unread post by carter29 » Tue Mar 08, 2005 11:30 pm

I didnt want to steal the Dave Lyrics thread so I made a new one...

I just want to point out a most likely obvious point...lets dicuss reoccuring theems (mainly words) that keep coming up in Dave's lyrics.

I'll start:

Rain/water (i.e. JTR, two step...tons of tunes)
Wine/drinking (i.e. crush, two step, R&R, etc.)
Smoking (jimi thing, R&R, etc.)
Live Life (Tripping Billies, Ants, pig, etc.)

Man i had a list once and there were tons...lets see what you guys can come up with

what will become of me? WWBOM, Pig, SDL
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": The food court is downstairs. The cookie stand is upstairs. It's not like we're talking quantum physics here.
