  • Does anyone happen to have the lyrics for either of these songs? I tried doing them myself, but the soung on my computer is less then brilliant, so I can only get about 2/3 of them.

  • Yeah, I'm not quite sure what Damian's singing at some points either.
  • Some of these might be wrong, but for what I can figure out (Feel free to fill in the blanks or yell at me for being wrong tongue.gif):
    Invincible:

    When they finally come to destroy the earth
    They'll have to go through you first
    bet they won't be expectin that one
    (When/And?) they finally come to destroy the earth
    They'll have to deal with you first
    and now my money says that they wont know about the
    thousand fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes

    (chorus:)
    invincible
    oh oh oh, you're invincible
    ohoh invincible ohohoh (etc)
    that crushing crashing atom smashing white hot thing
    Invincible

    When they finally come what'll you do to them
    gonna decimate them like you did to me?
    will you leave them stunned and stuttering?
    When they finally come how will you handle them
    will you devastate them deliberately
    as I'm gonna guess they won't be prepared for the
    thousand fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes

    (Repeat chorus)

    So please
    use your powers
    for good
    please use your powers for good

    (repeat chorus)

    Do What You Want:

    So you were born
    in an electrical storm
    took a bite out the sun
    saw your future in the machine (made for two?)
    now you raise(?)
    make me cut and go crazy
    shock and awe and amaze me
    just a (tidbit tip/ticker-tape) parading me
    but something was wrong
    till you tapdance
    on the air, in the night
    screamin at the top of your lungs
    you say
    cmon cmon
    do what you want
    what could go wrong
    cmon cmon cmon, cmon
    do what you want
    oh cmon cmon
    what could go wrong
    ddd-do what you want yeah

    me i was raised
    amid the trickle down days
    i woke up numb in the haze
    and saw my future in the machine (made for two?)
    but the light
    gave me some kinda fright
    had it (wound up?) so bright
    leave me stumbling through the dark of night(?)
    but something was wrong
    but you tapdance
    on the air, in the night
    screamin at the top of your lungs
    you say
    cmon cmon
    do what you want
    what could go wrong
    cmon cmon cmon, cmon
    do what you want
    oh cmon cmon
    what could go wrong
    ddd-do what you want yeah

    ddd-do what you want yeah
    ddd-do what you want yeah

    Cmon, cmon, cmon, cmon...

    ddd-do what you want yeah (repeat till end)
  • Ok, going off what you have.. what I heard (these are total guesses):

    Invincible:

    thousand fahrenheit hot metal lights behind your eyes

    (2nd time) cause I'm gonna guess they won't be prepared for

    (that crushing crashing atom smashing white hot thing??)


    Do What You Want:

    shock and awe and amaze me

    leave me stumbling through the dark of night(?)

    If anyone knows these are wrong, feel free to correct me smile.gif
  • I edited those in, and I think you're right-- I heard a few of those but wasn't confident enough to put them in case they were totally off, but since I'm not the only person who's heard some of those, I'll assume they're right for now wink.gif

    I can't believe I didn't figure out the fahrenheit bit either, listening back it seems so clear!
  • in Do What You Want i think it's "me i was raised in the trickle down days" like ronald regan, trickle down economics, you know? that whole gig.

    Ahhh, good catch. I'll edit that one in too.
  • I just had to add that I heard "tap dance" in the song too, but didn't want to mention that and sound stupid, but it's seriously what I hear too!

    On the "just a tippy tip parading me(?)", I'm hearing "tidbit" instead of "tippy"??

    Any guesses who the person is that you can hear for a second in the beginning of Invincible?

    Sounds right, again! And yeah, my fiance heard the tap dance line, I made him listen through and point out anything he noticed I messed up, hehe smile.gif

    Yayyy teamwork! laugh.gif
  • here's a possibility for "Do What You Want":

    shock and awe and amaze me
    just a ticker-tape parading me

    you know, like those parades back in the day with lots of confetti for when Lindberg flew across the atlantic or something...
