Thunderstorm, by My Quadell
Words by me and Siddharta Gautama (the Buddha).
Music by me, with samples of Fela Kuli (the Nigerian resistance fighter) and Lemmings (the addictive 80's computer game).
"An unreflecting mind is a poor roof.
Passion, like the rain, floods the house.
But if the roof is strong, there is shelter."
-- the Buddha
"Passion is like a thunderstorm in my mind
And I don't want to be stuck out in the rain this time."
-- Your Quadell

Re: Thunder Storm
Thunder Storm
words and music by jack shite
from a knee jerk reaction
full of flaw
comes a rain of terror
one of shock and awe
thunder storm
across the plain
but this one's not
bringing any rain
sons and daughters
come home dead
we're past the point of being
over our head
built on myths
and endless lies
no excuses
no alibis
politicians don't
give a damn
it's all just another
vietnam
think of all the profit
we'll make
who'll be the last to die
for this mistake
end the so called "war" on terrorism

Re: Thunder Storm
by ifpo238
my song is not heavy. oh, well.
Thunderstorm
============
[insert cliche, overdone, thunderstorm sound]
Have you ever seen a thunderstorm in Texas?
They show up without warning, and they leave without a trace.
When the skies begin to darken, you'd think that storm will blow forever.
Half an hour later, you wouldn't know it rained.
She blew into town like a thunderstorm in Texas.
I found myself with feelin's for the lightenin' in her eyes.
A man can't hold a woman who's as wild as the wind.
That didn't stop me from givin' it a try.
(And I sang) Rain, Rain, don't go away.
Stick around for one more day.
I wanna stay inside and play.
Oh, Thunderstorm, stay.
[insert cliche, overdone key change]
She left town like a thunderstorm in Texas.
She took off without warning. She left without a trace.
[insert cliche, slightly less overdone bird sounds to indicate storm being gone without a trace or whatever.]
-j
Apologies in advance for the vocal delivery.

Re: Thunder Storm
I was less than taken with the title this week, so I did a cheezeball Michael Jackson ripoff. Hope you guys enjoy it. Lots of thunder. (In fact, I say "thunder" 49 times in the course of the song...

Re: Thunder Storm
Thunder Storm
by Explode 16
( ZhayTee: Joseph Toscano )
( soda: Casey Kolderup )
the skies were blue
and all was right
We'd found it all had cleared
you'd be with me
to count the times
that days turned into years
but the sky turned dark with your weakness
the winds picked up as you fell down
the roads grew empty like our home without you
How could you leave me out in the flood?
This torrent won't ever let me be
The downpour washes down my brow, upon my eyes
we took a trip
to get some peace
drove west all night and day
and where we let
your ashes fall
the clouds looked so very far away
I wish that you could see me now
Let me stand right beside you one more time
and show you all that I've done on my own
Next time that the storm comes around
and I find myself braving the rain
I will hear my heart beat over the thunder

Thunderstorm
soothe my nerves
when I'm close to you
I'm full four thirds
Thunderstorm
take me home
swinging hammock smiles

Re: Thunder Storm
Thunder Storm - TB
**Chorus**
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
Life's droppin your drawers
So bend over and start clenchin your jaws
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
They got plenty of cause
Ya better expect it when ya brakin the laws
Brace yourself for the coming storm
thunder rolls; take it on
...
And never for once I thought it be like this
It's always my policy to take no risk
yet here I am
Thunder storm is close at hand
face up; eyes open
sword raised to the sky
Some years ago I put myself into this situation
A single choice now leading up to my disintegration
not like you care -
not like anybody cares
but I still dare to share
my thought and feeling
'Cause being helpful seems appealing
"That's good, that's very good,"
you say, "but what's the story?"
I fucked up and now my life is shit
"Oh, is that all? My wife divorced me"
or "I've got cancer" or some shit
on why your life is worse
but I'm here to provide encoragement,
Not just to curse
'cause when you faced with problems
big or small no matter
how you deal with'm
you've got to visualize it
know you're fighting for your own survival
hold a personal revival
and listen to this drone; now that's some REAL rhythm!
((CHORUS))
No, wait!
There's some hope here!
You gotta believe me
I gotta beleive me, too or let despair set in,
and that would much aggreive me
You are invincible to all the bullets that would bind you;
All the chains that bind you
And when the lightning strikes you - it's gonna
purify you for the fight to come
So let the thunderstorm remind you that you are His son
And may you conquer all your enemies
when the day is done
That is my prayer and meditation.
Freestylin'
I've never done this before, so bear with me
wanna soudn pithy
but dont' know which tune to carry
You know when the shit hits, you got that feelin' right before - that time, maybe a few seconds, maybe a few days, where you know what's gonna happen - that's the time about which i am rappin - respect to SF and the DA and the streets that inspired me all higher than me but I know you won't be firin' me so stick aruond until the end hi and bye maybe
((CHORUS))

Re: Thunder Storm
Thunderstorm
words by your Quadell, music by Chucky of Childbirth Shotput. A capella version here.
[insert non-sampled severe weather warning]
The storm is on its way
All the people run inside
But I'm walking through the empty streets
So I may be sanctified
I don't know what I'm looking for
In the hot, stale, wet air
But I can't stay inside any longer
There's nothing for me there
All I hear is a constant numbness
Like a wave that pulls me under
But I know somewhere in that sky
Lies waiting a fearsome thunder
And if lightning strikes me down
I won't know until I'm hit
And I'll sleep without care or concience
In my stink and smoke and shit
All I feel is a constant echo
Like a child lost in wonder
But when I hold my face to the ground
I can feel the purr of thunder
A womb of drenching water
Is as pure as virgin snow
So I wait to feel the thunderstorm
Is it here yet? I don't know.
All I hear is a constant numbness
Like a wave that drags me under
But I know that all around me
Lies the blessing of the thunderstorm
(Storm is on its way)

Re: Thunder Storm
"Thunder Storm" by Starfinger
i thought about it
when i first heard about it
but it seems that this machine
is just a dream
but i still look up at the sky
and i wonder why
can't a man
be in control of this thing
i want to make a thunder storm!
i want to make it rain!
oh!
i want to watch the world
blow...
in the winds
from my weather machine
the clouds will be my army
marching as to war
war war wooooh
the rain like burning oil
to fall down and cleanse this soil
yeah woolahaooh
lighting bolts
to hold up like spears
in victory
yeah
but what about the thunder?
woah oh!
the voice of god
rumbling in the night
from my weather machine
