HA! Good Fun!

I saw Gromnir posted in the song lyrics thread, and I figured it had to be good.

 

 

I have to say, I'm a little dissapointed, but it was entertaining.

weren't meant to be deep or anything... just posted for the chuckle value.

 

have always had a soft spot for "i am the walrus" as it were a song written to belittle and berate folks like bob dylan and allen ginsberg... and others who string together nonsense images and calls it art.

 

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.

See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.

Okay instead of outright deleting posts, I'm just setting them as invisible while they're under consideration. draakh, you're moving in the right direction. At least this time your post was sexual without involving food. :D Ironically, Ender's has a better chance of seeing the light of day. Considering where his lyrics have been, I find that oddly amusing.

 

Since we're on the Beatles, here's one:

 

Lennon/McCartney

Once there was a way to get back homeward

Once there was a way to get back home

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby

 

Golden slumbers fill your eyes

Smiles awake you when you rise

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby

 

Once there was a way to get back homeward

Once there was a way to get back home

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby

 

 

BTW, Crimson, my wife and I are Oingo Boingo fans. I'll find my favorite and post it.

Mojo Nixon - Don Henley Must Die

(if your store don't have Mojo Nixon, well then it could use some fixin')

 

He's a tortured artist

Used to be in the eagles

Now he whines like a wounded beagle

 

Poet of despair

Puffed up with hot air

He's serious, pretentious and I just don't care

 

Don Henley must die

Don't let him get back together

With Glenn Frey, Don Henley must die

 

Turned on the TV

And what did I see

This bloated hairy thing winnin' a Grammy

 

Best rock vocalist

Compared to what?

Bunch of pseudo-serious Kraft angst-a-matic

Satanic plot

 

Don Henley Must die

Put a sharp stick in his eye, don henley must die

Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Oh

 

(insert "Hotel California" solo over bridge)

Quit playin' that crap

You're out of the band

 

I'm only kidding, can't you tell?

I love his sensitve music

His idiot poetry's swell

 

You and your kind

Are killin' rock and roll

It's not because you

[Kor Qel Droma]

Hey, there is no lyrics from the pixies yet on here, so I'll post the lyrics to a song called, um, 'hey'.

 

hey

been trying to meet you

hey

must be a devil between us

or whores in my head

whores at my door

whores in my bed

but hey

where

have you

been if you go i will surely die

we're chained

 

uh said the man to the lady

uh said the lady to the man she adored

and the whores like a choir

go uh all night

and mary ain't you tired of this

uh

is

the

sound

that the mother makes when the baby breaks

we're chained

we'll travel round the world, just you and me punk rock girl...

[Darth Drabek]

The best part of that song is "if you GO! i will surely die."

 

It's just so unexpected. I love Joey Santiago's guitar on that song though. Total minimalism, just bending the hell out of those notes.

 

And nice catch, Kor.

[Kor Qel Droma]

So true, DD, so true. Joey was always kind of underrated in my book. He did more with less, if you know what I mean...

 

Punk rock girl is a classic in my clouded eyes...

[Oerwinde]

Where are you from that you've heard Straight Outta Jr. High?

 

They are a local band here in Omaha.  I have a t-shirt from one of their concerts.  You have to hear their new Valtrex song.  It is hilarious!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

The flash video for Happy Fun Song was featured as the Geek of the Week on the local rock station CFOX's website last year. I downloaded the MP3 and showed it off to my friends who all loved it, but most of their other stuff was too much generic pop/punk. Boner was a pretty funny song though.

"If i go there will be trouble.

If i stay there will be double."

 

This is a man who desperately needs to clarify his objectives. All he needs to tell me is whether he wants to maximise or minimise trouble.

[Baley]

Jesus was a Terrorist.

 

Jesus was a terrorist

Enemy of the state

That's what the Romans labeled him

So he was put to death

 

He died for his beliefs

What's changed today?

 

Today bible-thumping cannibals

Reap money from his name

Buy cable networks & power

With old ladies' checks

 

If Jesus saw Pat Robertson

What do you think he'd say?

Tax free then re-write our laws

And sick 'em on you

Women don't control their bodies

TV preachers do

 

Censor everything from bathing suits

To science books

From the schoolroom to the bedroom

They want our thoughts - or else

 

They treat us like the Romans

Used to treat the Christians

Even some church-going folks are scared

 

Modern catacombs of fear

Built with money, power, and threats

Rock 'n Roll is labeled porn

Sell a record, you're under arrest

 

Instead of fighting AIDS

They try to stop us having sex

They brag that they won't quit

Till they take dominion over our lives

 

Is freedom of speech such a terrorist act

Is spiritual peace such a satanic threat

Believe what you want

But we'll fight to keep

Our heads from being cemented in your sand

Pixies - The Happening

 

 

They got a ranch they call

Number fifty-one

They got a ranch they call

Number fifty-one

Can't see it all

'less your flying by

Just sitting there square

Baking in the sun

 

Beneath the sky

Sky

Sky

Sky

 

 

They're gonna put it down

Right on the strip

They're gonna put it down

On the Vegas strip

They're gonna put it down

And step outside

Into the lights

Right outta that ship

 

Saying Hi

Hi

Hi

Hi

 

 

 

I was driving doing nothing on the shores of Great Salt Lake

When they put it on the air I put it in the hammer lane

I soon forgot about myself and I forgot about the brake

I forgot about all laws and I forgot about the rain

They were talking on the 9 and all across the amy band

Across the road they were turning around and headed south with me

It got so crowded on the road I started driving on the sand

My head was feeling scared but my heart was feeling free

The desert turned to mud it seems that everybody heard

Everybody was remembering to forget they had the chills

Then I heard the voices on a broadcast from up on the bird

They were getting interviewed by some Goodman whose name was Bill

I'm almost there to Vegas where they're puttin' on a show

They've come so far I've lived this long at least I must go and say hello

[LadyCrimson]

Kate Bush - UnderIce. Listen to it very loud through headphones and feel creeped out...

 

It

[Musopticon?]

That's quite generic, to say the least.

 

 

No need for deleting.

[LadyCrimson]

Yeah, it's more a 'mood' song...have to hear it.

 

edit - oh wait maybe that wasn't directed at me...never mind.

[WinterSun]

It was going to be "Fistf*cking Gods Planet" but I decided to change it.

[draakh_kimera]

Hey, if you want garuanteed deletion, you could post lyrics involving some form of sex. I've managed to get two entries deleted so far...Do i listen to the wrong kind of music?

[Dark Moth]

So songs like WinterSun's are allowed, but ones with sexual references aren't? Nice to know our mods know how to prioritize things. "

[draakh_kimera]

Well, I wouldn't really refer to the lyrical content of the songs I submitted as sexual "references"...They happened to be a bit more explicit

 

Oh, and those lyrics of wintersuns'll prolly get deleted too

[Musopticon?]

"Who gets the most deleted songs? A new board game on the Obs fora!"

[Cantousent]

Can I spend a few minutes somewhere other than this board? Geez, Mothman.

 

Anyhow, this is America. Violence is never a problem, only sexual references. :D

 

okay, okay, mods can joke too you know.

[WinterSun]

What was wrong with my song?As Mus said,it's fairly generic.It could've been much more extreme.

[Musopticon?]

And..well, that was metal. It's like blaming goth rock for being too melancholic.

[Dark Moth]

What was wrong with my song?As Mus said,it's fairly generic.It could've been much more extreme.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Probably the replete references to violence and against a particular religion. And it wasn't necessarily the song itself, just that it seemed hypocritical to allow things like that but not things like sexual references. But I've said enough already. And since it was deleted anyway, there's really nothing else to talk about.

Game? Game?!? Are you mocking me??? This is goddamn serious :angry:

 

Have some happy lyrics:

 

Bob Marley - High tide or low tide:

 

In high seas or in low seas

I'm gonna be your friend,

I'm gonna be your friend.

In high tide or in low tide,

I'll be by your side,

I'll be by your side.

 

(I heard her praying, praying, praying)

I said, I heard my mother,

She was praying (praying, praying, praying)

And the words that she said (the words that she said),

They still linger in my head (lingers in my head),

She said, "A child is born in this world,

He needs protection,

Got, guide and protect us,

When we're wrong, please correct us.

(when we're wrong, correct us).

And stand by me." yeah!

 

In high seas or in low seas,

I'm gonna be your friend,

He said, "I'm gonna be your friend."

And, baby, in high tide or low tide,

I'll be by your side,

I'll be by your side.

 

I siad I heard my mother,

She was crying' (I heard her crying'), yeah! (crying', crying'),

And the tears that she shed (the tears that she shed)

They still linger in my head (lingers in my head)

 

She said: "A child is born in this world,

He needs protection,

Got, guide and protect us,

When we're wrong, (when we're wrong), correct us.

 

And in high seas or low seas,

I'm gonna be your friend,

I'm gonna be your friend.

Said, high tide or low tide,

I'll be by your side,

I'll be by your side.

[Musopticon?]

To Mothie:

 

Sheesh, talking about petty. Did you take it that seriously? I mean; blatant? You make it sound like the song was some kind of malcotent.
