Hit The Road Jack - Ray Charles

Tyrone - Eryka Badu

"She's Got Papers On Me" by Richard 'Dimples' Fields (1981)---Of course,I am referring to the second part of this song,when Ms.Betty Wright appears and gives Richard his walking papers...lol...she tells it like it is!!

"Thanks To You" by Sinnamon (1982)---I bet most of you don't remember this song.It wasn't a big hit.I love the way it starts off....the woman calls her man on the phone and says "Yeah,it's me...Just calling to let you know that I won't be needing your loving services any longer".The guy goes "Oh really?" and she says "Yeah...just figured I'd clue you in on a few things".She spends the rest of the song thanking him.His bad behavior forced her to cheat and find a decent man...lol...sounds crazy,but it's a great song.

The Cure - Shiver and Shake

You're just a waste of time
You're just a babbling face
You're just three sick holes that run like sores
You're a fucking waste
You're like a slug on the girl
Oh you're useless and ugly
And useless and ugly
And I shiver and shake
When I think of how you make me hate

I want to smash you to pieces
I want to smash you up and screaming
I want to smash you helpless
Down on the floor
Smash you until you're not here anymore

And I shiver and shake
Shiver and shake




It's just so angry.

Placebo - Holocaust

Your eyes are almost dead
can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep

You're sitting down to dress
and you're a mess
You look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Then you realize

Everybody goes
leaving those
who fall behind

Everybody goes
as far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your airs

Your mother's dead
She said
"Don't be afraid"

Your mother's dead
You're on your own
She's in her bed

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

You're a wasted face
you're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust

the song itself is not that spitefull until the end, i mean, fuckin hell,
calling someone a holocaust is about as big a diss as you can come
up with i guess

Holiday is over but this still works:
You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch

just a small taste:

"You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch.
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile.
Mr. Grinch.

Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crockodile.


The three words that best describe you,
are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk."

Classic!

I'm surprised no one mentioned Mariah's Clown [dissing Eminem]:

I should’ve left it at, how ya doin’
I should’ve left it at
I like your music too, and
I should’ve never called you back
When you pursued me
I should’ve never given you
My fucking n two way
I should’ve never listened
To your woeful stories
The ones I’m sure you
Told a thousand times before me
You should’ve never intimated
We were lovers
When you know very well
We never even touched each other

Who’s gonna love you when
It all falls down, and
Who’s gonna love you when
Your bankroll runs out
Who’s gonna care when the novelty’s over
When the star of the
Show isn’t you anymore
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
Fall down...
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
Fall down

I gotta break it to ya delicately, dunny
Takin’ my g5 twenty minutes wasn’t nothin’
But I guess you wouldn’t know
That’s the way I roll
Consequently now your ego’s fully
Overblown
You don’t want the world to know
That you’re just a puppet show
And the little boy inside
Often sits at home alone
And cries, cries, cries, cries
(boo hoo. who? )

Who’s gonna love you
When it all falls down, and
Who’s gonna love you
When your bankroll runs out
(when your bankroll runs out)
Who’s gonna care when the novelty’s over
When the star of the
Show isn’t you anymore
Nobody (nobody)

Your pain is so deep rooted
What will your life become
Sure you hide it
But you’re lost and lonesome
Still just a frail shook one

Who’s gonna love you
When it all falls down, and
(tell me who’s gonna love you? who? I’d like to know)
Who’s gonna love you when
Your bankroll runs out
(if you didn’t have nothing)
Who’s gonna care when the novelty’s over
(who, who’d still be there)
When the star of the show isn’t you anymore
(nobody, nobody, nobody, oh)
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
(there ain’t nobody baby)
Fall down...
(bullies in the schoolyard)
(when they fall they fall hard)
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
(yeah... so you)
Fall down
(better think twice, better play nice)
(’cause who’s gonna be there)

Who’s gonna love you when it all falls down, and
(when the jokes on you)
Who’s gonna love you when your bankroll runs out
(a marionette show)
Who’s gonna care when the novelty’s over
(who’s makin’ you move though)
When the star of the show isn’t you anymore
(I know what kills you slow)
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
(I’m gonna keep your little)
Fall down
(secret though, mmmm, hmmmm)
(and you know that I know)
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown
(you’re no superhero)
Fall down...
(I guess your mamma never told you that what goes around comes around. pow)

Nina Simone's Go To Hell does the trick.

Bill Withers' Who Is He And What Is He To You is a lil' less confrontational, but sweetly irnoic. I love that.

Bill Withers.

Queen- Death on Two Legs

You can dance PRETTY well on George Michael's Fantasy.

It grooves a lil' like Prince, but is more pastiche, of course, including synth-horns.

You take someone's heart
And you kick it around
Keep on picking it up
So you can watch it come down
I don't know what I am suppose to do
Why I wait for you to make up your mind
Would you please be so kind
When you know what to do I'll be in the the next room
But if you make it to late I may be in the next day
Hmm...

Björk's 5 Years is a GREAT song to sing along loudly to when you are frustrated by love.

You think you're denying me of something
Well I've got plenty
You're the one who's missing out
But you won't notice
'Til after five years
If you'll live that long
You'll wake up
All loveless

I dare you
To take me on
I dare you
To show me your palms

I'm so bored with cowards
That say they want
Then they can't handle

You can't handle love
You can't handle love
You just can't handle

I dare you
To take me on
I dare you
To show me your palms

What's so scary ?
Not a threat in sight
You just can't handle
You can't handle love

You can't handle love, baby
You can't handle love
It's obvious
You can't handle

I dare you
To take me on
I dare you
To show me your palms

I'm so bored of cowards
That say they want
Then they can't handle

You can't handle love, baby
You can't handle love,
It's obvious
You can't handle

I dare you, I dare you
I dare you, I dare you

I've got a good one.

Morrissey - Margaret On The Guillotine

The kind people
Have a wonderful dream
Margaret on the guillotine
Cause people like you
Make me feel so tired
When will you die ?
When will you die ?
When will you die ?
When will you die ?
When will you die ?

And people like you
Make me feel so old inside
Please die

And kind people
Do not shelter this dream
Make it real
Make the dream real
Make the dream real
Make it real
Make the dream real
Make it real

and then the end with the sound of the blade coming down.

And The Smiths "Bigmouth Strikes Again"....

Sweetness, sweetness I was only joking
When I said I'd like to smash every tooth
In your head

Oh ... sweetness, sweetness, I was only joking
When I said by rights you should be
Bludgeoned in your bed

And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her Walkman started to melt
Oh ...

Bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race

Oh, bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race

And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her hearing aid started to melt

Bigmouth, la ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...

Bigmouth, oh ... bigmouth, la ...
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
With the Human race
Oh ...

Christina Aguilera

Can't Hold Us Down.

Also from Pulp....

Like A Friend

Don't bother saying you're sorry
Why don't you come in
Smoke all my cigarettes again
Every time I get no further
How long has it been?
Come on in now, wipe your feet on my dreams
You take up my time
Like some cheap magazine
When I could have been learning something
Oh well, you know what I mean, oh
I've done this before
And I will do it again
Come on and kill me baby
While you smile like a friend
Oh and I'll come running
Just to do it again...

You are the last drink I never should have drunk
You are the body hidden in the trunk
You are the habit I can't seem to kick
You are my secrets on the front page every week
You are the car I never should have bought
You are the dream I never should have caught
You are the cut that makes me hide my face
You are the party that makes me feel my age
Like a car crash I can see but I just can't avoid
Like a plane I've been told I never should board
Like a film that's so bad but I've got to stay till the end
Let me tell you now: it's lucky for you that we're friends.

Lipgloss

No wonder you're looking thin
When all that you live on is lipgloss and cigarettes.
And scraps at the end of the day
When he's given the rest to sommetaeone with long black hair.
All those nights in, making such a mess of the bed.
Oh you never ever want to go home.
And he wants you so you may as well hang around for a while,
call your dad on the phone.
He changed his mind last Monday, so you've gotta leave by Sunday, yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss Honey
Oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on, there's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone.
And you feel such a fool for laughing at bad jokes
And putting up with all of his friends and kissing in public.
What are they gonna say when they run into you again?
That your stomach looks bigger and your hair is a mess
And your eyes are just holes in your face.
And it rains every day and when it doesn't,
the sun makes you feel worse anyway.
He changed his mind last Monday, now you've gotta leave by Sunday, yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss Honey, Oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on, there's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone.
Though you knew there was no way it was gonna last for ever
It still shook you when he told you in a letter that he didn't wanna see you.
You nearly lost your mind, Oh yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss
Honey, Oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on, there's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone, Oh yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss Honey, Oh yeah
Now nothing you do can turn him on, there's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone. Oh yeah.

Not a "favorite" but this comes to mind: "5 Women" by Prince.

His reference to (Mathilda) May, whom he's rumored to have dated, is downright rude.

whats REALLY fucked is that the recipient of these kind words had to sit and have them sung to his face.

@Mara - "Clown" is one of my fav songs
from Charmbracelet
"Iguessyamamanevertoldyouthatwhatgoesaround
comes back aroooooud... POW!"

the absolute worst diss track
I ever heard was "F.U.S.S." by Xtina A.

Wire - Mannequin

You're a waste of space
No natural grace
You're so bloody thin
You don't even begin

To interest me
Not even curiousity
It's not animosity
It's just you don't interest me

You're an energy void
A black hole to avoid
No style, no heart
You don't even start

To interest me
Not even curiousity
It's not animosity
It's just you don't interest me
