Meat Loaf Lyrical Tattoos

mtaylor315 · 10 Nov 2011, 22:36

Hi everyone! I searched for something similar, but what I found seemed old, so I started a new topic. If this is in the wrong place then I’m sorry – knowing my luck it probably is

For several years I’ve had the idea that I wanted a lyrical tattoo on my forearm, and I wanted that lyric to be from a Meat Loaf song. Since I've turned 18, its become something I've thought about much more than I did previously. I’m struggling to come up with the lyrics which I want to use - just when I find one I love, I find another I love just as much! Anyway, here’s my question:

If you were to have a lyric from a Meat Loaf song tattooed on yourself, which lyric would it be and why?

I hope that I’ll get some inspiration from the replies which might help me to make my decision!

Thank you! Mike x

"Push me, Ill Shove" over my butt

If I wanted something meaningful to me rather than comedy/ironic then it'd definitely be something from R&R Dreams - I always loved "the angels had guitars even before they had wings", that's a great lyric.

"Everything Louder Than Everything Else"

Thought for sure it would have been an arched belly tat (over the belly button) of the word "Masculine" or "California" with an arrow pointing you know where.....hmpfh, I was wrong again.

That's good, or depending how long of a quote you want, some part of:

"Don't worry about the future, sooner or later it's the past
If the thrill is gone, then it's time to take it back"

The first thing that came to my mind was also something from R&R Dreams, like:

"When you really, really need it the most
That's when Rock and Roll Dreams come through"

be sure to spell it correctly ... a permanent spelling mistake wouldn't be so great, especially on your forehead, very noticeable

i'm just kidding you haha

Or then there is my all time fav, "You're never alone cuz you can put on the phones and let the drummer tell your heart what to do" It would be fitting for me cuz:

1. I played drums for about 10 years and still dabble in it; and
2. It's so true.

Although it's rather long, so I'm not sure where I'd put it.

Just bought a shirt from .net that has that phrase. Wore it for the first time yesterday and got lots of good comments.

What you believe is true

I know many around the world wouldn't recognise it yet but

Why dont you use your sig, "sometimes I think Meat Loaf is the only man that makes me happy!"

This was another I was considering. Blind as a Bat is one of my favorite songs! x

I love the lyric "There's desperation in the air, it leaves a stain on all your clothes and no detergent gets it out".

chairboys · 12 Nov 2011, 16:59

how about the subtle line from blind before i stop:

sound comes rushing thru me
like an intravenous rocket.

a good talking point i think!!

"And like a sinner before the Gates of Heaven I'll come crawling back to you."

Although that might be a bit long.

I should really change that since I've found a man who makes me just as happy!
