I don't wanna sound rude but do you have some lyrics of your own?
because you sound like you know a lot about it.
If you have some, I 'd love to read through them =)
Don't take it badly, though.

seven severns make seventy seven

jumping jack flash and roddy frame
could never take the blame
for my rock and roll excess
its down to sex
down to collect, the next
phase.

i have it all planned out
(seven severns make seventy seven)
i will shave my head and adopt a new pose
(seven severns make seventy seven)
dauchau or dresden, here i will reside
(seven severns make seventy seven)
in this chamber of despair i have no where to hide
no where, i said no where. yeah. oh-oh.

battling death with rhythm guitar
i’d rather hammer my lungs with cigarette tar
(yeah cigarette tar baby)
cutting so deep i cant feel my nerves
crying into my oranges, no wonder i am so disturbed

and i say, seven severns make seventy seven
littering the backseat with burger king wrappers
and i say, seven severns make seventy seven
store bought chicken never tasted so good
as food….as food….never tasted so good.
i cut……i cut………for the food…..for without food
i stand in front of the mirror, spirtually nude.

probe me i’m death
i cant read or write
probe me i’m death
bad chickens make bad shite
i’ve got the runs baby
and my toilets backed up
penicillin overdose, nicky’s off to perth
for theres nothing better than home
(seven severns make seventy seven)
and i wanna go alone!!
(seven severns make seventy seven)
no taxi drivers! no sterile malls!
i wanna go home, i wanna stay home!

ah, so AGE is a factor when writing lyrics or texts about things you like, care about, prefer, hate, love etc?

Yes, but Nicky's too loud for rocks, so we're in the clear on this one.

The only rock Nicky is afraid of is THE JDB.

You know my dear?? this made me think of sth Billy Corgan said...knowing that is barely Nicky's age...he said: " I can't make music to make ppl happy... I make music to express what I feel and what I understand of the world"

And if someone feels related and touched that's great and if rest of the world does not feel a thing it is fine so be it... it is not the musicians' job to always be pleasing everybody's needs and tastes. That's impossible.

I can say that I still believe in Nicky's lyrics. He sounds more mature but he hasn't gone krishna yet...which I totally admire. He keeps his head clean and clear and I like that. I still feel related with some of his writings.

THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT NICKY WIRE. It's about THE JDB. Show some respect and awe!

This is as real as any of the Wire's drawling bollocks.

I am offended.

Aye! What have Nicky's lyrics got to do with an idea for James!?!

can i just say that saying *well can you do better ?* to people that don't like the band or lyrics or whatever isn't the point. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to criticise anything.

Nicky Wire writes lyrics for a living.

I write lyrics when I'm feeling weepy and am wankered off half a bottle of Lambrini.

If my lyrics are better than Wire's (which they probably are) then it should be a serious affront to him.
