What song describes you?
I'm a *****, I'm a lover
Alanis Morissette
I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
tried to tell you
but you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
innocent and sweet.
Yesterday I cried,
must have been relieved
to see the softer side
I can understand
how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one
[Chorus]
I'm a *****, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you woldn't want it any other way
So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
when I start to make you nervous
and I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
[Chorus]
I'm a *****, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm an angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

I'm a gay man who loves alanis and who likes her version of the song I found on kaZaA and lyrics on letssingit.com

One scotsman clad in kilt
Left the bar one evening fair
One could tell by how he walked
That he'd drunk more than his share
He fumbled round until he could
No longer keep his feet
Then he stumbled off unto
The grass to sleep beside the street
(refrain)
About that time two young and lovely
Girls just happened by
One says to the other
With a twinkle in her eye
See yon sleeping Scotsman
So strong and handsome built
I wonder if its true what they dont
Wear beneath the kilt
(refrain)
They crept up on that sleeping scotsman
Quiet as could be
Lifted up his kilt about
An inch so they could see
And there, behold, for them to view
Beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing more than God engraced
Him with upon his birth
(refrain)
They marveled for a moment
Then one said we must be gone
Lets leave a present for our friend
Before we move along
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon
Tied into a bow
Around the bonnie star the scot's
Kilt did lift and show
(refrain)
Now the Scotsman woke to natures
Call and stumbled towards the trees
Behind a bush he liftes his kilt
And gawks at what he sees
In a startled voice he says
To whats before his eyes
Oh, lad I dont know where
You've been but I see you won first prize!
{refrain}
(last line)
Ring ding diddle iddly la dee doh
Ring da diddle eye oh
(last line)
|
Although I don't often get passed out drunk. Only happened three times in my life, and only once on the street really. Why? I don't like to, and I know when to stop 
No idea whom it's by.

Nay, but it describes the best-known parts of it
(half the city has probably seen me lifting the kilt  )
Couldn't find songs to describe the Real Me 
Anyway, hopefully later I'll need to switch for a song parodying a German person... Although no matter where I live I shall always remain a proud Caledonian*(at least Caledonian in spirit...)
*remember that Caledonia describes both Scotland and Ireland

Probably "Make Yourself" by Incubus
If I hadn't made me, I would've been made somehow
If I hadn't assembled myself, I'd have fallen apart by now
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow
Powers that be, would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow
Bow, aww yeah
If you let them make you, they'll make you paper mache
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes
Then you crumble and blow away
If you let them **** you, there will be no fore-play
Rest assured, they'll screw you complete
Til your ass is blue and gray
You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
If I hadn't made me, I'd have fallen apart by now
I won't let them make me, It's more than I can allow
So when I make me, I won't be paper mache
And if I **** me, I'll **** me my own way
POW, **** me in my own way
POW, **** me in my own way
POW, **** me in my own way
**** me in my own way
You should make amends with you
If only for better health, better health
But if you really want to live
Why not try, and make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself
Make yourself

Ecthelion: Once, some stupid girl annoyed me in the middle of a busy intersection. I lifted the kilt at her while swearing a bit. Then I noticed that the whole intersection was red-light behind her. That didn't even get a shrug. Shows you how much I care.
This particular lassie didn't go for trying out some of Marc's good luvin'... But others did
It increases availability so much

That would be Rush - Tom Sawyer
A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you
No his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day
-- at least I like to think so!

Who controls the British crown?

We do. We do!
Who keeps Atlantis off the maps?
Who keeps the Martians under wraps?

And who are you busy fellows Sir Ralph?
Tassadar, lyrics?
After much thought and looking up some lyrics, I can't say which song would describe me in general, they all seem to be about one mood ot the other.

Really? I would have said Caledonia is Scotland and Hibernia is Ireland. Must just be those latin lessons coming back to haunt me.

OK, I get it now:
Arsehole (edited to protect the guilty... That's Dennis Leary for those of you who don't know)
[Spoken]
Folks, I'd like to sing a song about the American Dream. About me. About you. The way our American hearts beat down in the bottom of our chests. About the special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts, maybe below the cockles, maybe in the sub-cockle area. Maybe in the liver. Maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the colon, we don't know.
[Sung]
I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job
I'm your average white suburbanite slob
I like football and porno and books about war
I've got an average house with a nic hardwood floor
My wife and my job, my kids and my car
My feet on my table, and a cuban cigar
But sometimes that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested
(Oh no) No Way (Uh-uh)
No, I've gotta go out and have fun
At someone else's expense
(Oh yeah) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I drive really slow in the ultrafast lane
While people behind me are going insane
I'm an ******* (He's an arsehole, what an arsehole)
I'm an ******* (He's an arsehole, such an arsehole)
I use public toilets and p1ss on the seat
I walk around in the summertime saying, "How about this heat?"
I'm an arsehole (He's an arsehole, what an arsehole)
I'm an arsehole (He's the world's biggest arsehole)
Sometimes I park in handicapped spaces
While handicapped people make handicapped faces
I'm an arsehole (He's an arsehole, what an arsehole)
I'm an arsehole (He's a real freaking arsehole)
Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song
Ranting and raving and carrying on
Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong
Naaaah!
I'm an arsehole (He's an arsehole, what an arsehole)
I'm an arsehole (He's the world's biggest arsehole)
[Spoken]
You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac El Dorado convertible, hot pink with whaleskin hub caps and all leather cow interior and big brown baby seal eyes for headlights, yeah! And I'm gonna drive around in that baby at 115mph getting one mile per gallon, sucking down quarter pounder cheese burgers from McDonald's in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when I'm done sucking down those grease ball burgers, I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag and then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam container right out the side and there ain't a God damned thing anybody can do about it. YOu know why? Because we got the bombs, that's why.
[Spoken]
Two words. Nuclear f'ing weapons, okay?! Russia, Germany, Romania - they can have all the Democracy they want. They can have a big democracy cake-walk right through the middle of Tiananmen square and it won't make a lick of difference because we've got the bombs, okay?! John Wayne's not dead - he's frozen. And as soon as we find the cure for cancer we're gonna thaw out the duke and he's gonna be pretty p1ssed off. You know why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well multiple that by 15-million times, that's how p1ssed off the Duke's gonna be. I'm gonna get the Duke and John Cassavetes...
(Hey)
and Lee Marvin
(Hey)
and Sam Pekinpah
(Hey)
And a case of Whiskey and drive down to Texas...
(Hey, you know you really are an arsehole)
Why don't you just shut-up and sing the song pal!
I'm an arsehole (He's an arsehole, what an arsehole)
I'm an arsehole (He's the world's biggest arsehole)
A-S-S-H-O-L-E Everybody! A-S-S-H-O-L-E
[Barking]
Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf Arf
Fung achng tum a fung tum a fling chum
Oooh Oooh
[Spoken]
I'm an arsehole and proud of it!

Ha più forte sapore
la conquista violenta
che il mellifluo consenso.
Io di sospiri e di lattiginose
albe lunari poco mi appago.
Non so trarre accordi
di chitarra, né oroscopo di fior
né far l'occhio di pesce,
o tubar come tortora!
Bramo. - La cosa bramata
perseguo, me ne sazio e via la getto...
volto a nuova esca. Dio creò diverse
beltà e vini diversi... Io vo' gustar
quanto più posso dell'opra divina!
I relish the violent conquest
more than the willing surrender!
I take no delight in sighs
at the milky light of dawn.
I can't strum chords on the guitar
or predict the future with flower petals.
Nor, can I make cow eyes or coo
like a turtle dove.
I pursue the thing that I desire
I sate myself with it and throw it away
turning to something new!
God created so many beautiful women,
so many wines
I want to taste all that Heaven created!
