guess the song (lyric game)

[SmokinMom]

I suppose SKAG. By the way, my song was Passage To Bangkok by Rush.

You're up.

 

[swiftgt]

in this place -robin tower

Four capital letters
Printed in gold
'Cause details make the girls sweat even more
while they're shaking their belt
No need to ask my name
to figure out how cool I am

 

[clanchattan]

Justice - DVNO

"And i don't understand why i sleep all day,
and i start to complain when theres no rain,
all i can do is read a book to stay awake,
and it rips my life away, but it's a great escape..."

 

[SmokinMom]

Blind Melon - No More Rain. Love the bee girl.

Suddenly ahead of me across the mountainside
A gleeming alloy air car shoots towards me two lanes wide
I spin around with shreiking tires to run the deadly race
Go screaming thru the valley as another joins the chase.

 

[kaotik]

rush - red barchetta (big rush fan mom?)


this is one of my favorite 'story' songs:

"A long time ago came a man on a track
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
he made a home in the wilderness

he built a cabin and a winter store
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
the other travellers came riding down the track
and they never went further and they never went back

then came the churches then came the schools
then came the lawyers then came the rules
then came the trains and the trucks with their loads.."

*added a few more lines.. nobody knows this? I'm a little gutted by that

 

[kaotik]

[SmokinMom]

kaotik I am still playing. Just only want to answer the ones I truely know. Go again.

 

[kaotik]

alright.. hope ya know this one.. quite popular around here, but we rednecks 'round here

"Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge
Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge
Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side
Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside
Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
I still remember that rumblin' sound
Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night
Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right
He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load
You could smell the whiskey burnin' down _________ "

 

[cadlakmike1]

one of my favorite songs, Copperhead road by steve earle.

"The old man was covered with tattoos and scars'
he got some in prison and others in bars
the rest he got workin' on old junk cars
in the day time"

 

[kaotik]

haha David Allan Coe - if that ain't country (I'll kiss your ..)

how bout this one?

"Fire on the moun, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no." "

 

[metproductions]

Pete Gabriel..."Diggin in the Dirt' (pun)




While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
While there's a wind and the stars and the rainbow
'Till the mountains crumble into the plain

 

[swiftgt]

Innuendo by Queen,

Hey street boy whats your style
Your dead end dreams dont make you smile
Ill give ya something to live for
Have ya, grab ya til your sore

 

[TerrorAP2]

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts- Cherry Bomb

Everything I've done, I've done for you
I move the stars for no one
You've run so long, You've run so far
Your eyes can be so cruel

 

[The Effen Gee]

David Bowie - The labyrinth.

Hey mister, don't point at me!
You shout rhetoric nonsense like a Pavlovian model responding to his questions!

Hey teacher, arrogance is bliss!
You spend your time turning water into life as if you were God's foreman!

Is it any wonder things seem so awry?
We swim in sea of confusion and don't have to think to survive
So nobody listens!

 

[SmokinMom]

Beats me, this needed a good BUMP.

 

[kaotik]

lol, now that's a little more my speed
i'm too tired to think of what to post next, so i'll leave that one for somebody else (kinda want to see if anyone beside tom, mom and me is playing too )

 

[hippiehaze]

She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane.
The man in the crowd with the multicolored mirrors
On his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy
Working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate
And donated to the National Trust.

 

[TerrorAP2]

One of my all time favorite songs, by one of my all time favorite bands.

The Beatles- Happiness is a warm gun

 

[TerrorAP2]

As your bony fingers close around me
Long and spindly
Death becomes me
Heaven can you see what I see

Hey you pale and sickly child
You're death and living reconciled
Been walking home a crooked mile

 

[cadlakmike1]

souped-up jitney, it was a cherry red `53 And
