A silly little blog for me to drop the excrement of my mind.
Published on November 16, 2004 By BlueDev In Misc
Okay denizens of JoeUser. This is something I have been wanting to do for a while here. I played along with this game on another forum and it was a lot of fun. Over there we had stretched it to over 2,500 replies. So I am asking you folks here to play along, let's have some fun with this. Here are the rules.

Each person needs to think of part of a lyric from a song. I will start it off with some lyrics. The next person to post adds some lyrics, the trick being one of the words in the lyrics they post must also be in the lyrics I posted. Then the next person picks a word in the on above them and post a lyrics with a common word, and so on. Does that make sense? So some specifics. Words like 'a', 'the', 'it' are discouraged, try to be more creative. Please put in bold the word in your lyric that you had in common with post before you. Do not post entire songs. It makes it too hard and there may be copyright issues. Try to limit posts to only one verse or the chorus, something small. But not so small that it makes it impossible for the next person. And it is always nice to include the artist and title of the song. Everybody game? Please? I will kick it off.

Floating high
In the evening sky
I see my faint reflection

Pale facsimile
Like what others see
When they look in my direction

I'm packin' up my old suitcases
To go see old familiar faces
Give me blue skies
And sunny Texas weather.

I crave the smell of good ole saddle leather
I've got Texas in my heart
I've got a lotta friends in Amarrilo
I like Dallas, Forth Worth, Houston, San Antone.

Got a pinin' in my heart to be in Texas
I've said I'll wind up makin' it my home
I'm packin' up my old suitcases
To go see old familiar faces.

The Lone Star State
Has won my heart doggone it
And long horn steak with lots of ketchup on it
I've got Texas in my heart.

while ridin through the lone star state
i lost my lunch before i ate,
it happened in a honky-tonk café.
i felt my bones begin to crunch
i saw my name on the businessman’s lunch
and the neck who owned the place stepped up to say:
“hey buddy, are you blind,
say, partner, can’t you read the sign ?”


we reserve the right to refuse service to you,
take your business back to walgreen’s,
have you tried your local zoo ?
you smell just like a communist,
you come on  just like a jew,
we reserve the right to refuse service to you.


well, i walked on in to my house of god
congregation on the nod,
just chosen folks are doing their weekly thing.
hear, o israel, yes indeed,
my book was backwards, couldn’t read,
but i got a good rise when i heard that rabbi sing,
“boruch atoh adonoi,
what the hell are you doing back there, boy ?”


we reserve the right to refuse services to you,
your friends are all on welfare —
you call yourself a jew ?
you need your ticket and your tie
to zip your prayers on through,
we reserve the right to refuse services unto you.


well, it’s just my luck if god’s a texan
one big sombitchin’ anglo-saxon,
some crazy tall norwegian bore
just have my body shipped air-freight
from texas to the pearly gate
just ring the bell and leave me at the door.
i’ll be somewhere over jordan swinging low,
i’ll hear them tape-recorded angels in lifelike stereo


singing,
“we reserve the right to refuse service to you,
take your business back to walgreen’s,
have you tried your local zoo ?
our quota’s filled for this year
on singing texas jews,
we reserve the right to refuse service to you.

In sensurround sound in a two inch wall
I was waiting for the communist call
I didn't ask for sunshine and I got world war three
I'm looking over the wall and they're looking at me

now the rovin' gambler he was very bored
he was tryin' to create a next world war
he found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
he said i never engaged in this kind of thing before
but yes i think it can be very easily done
we'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
and have it on highway 61.

uh oh, what to do what to do...I know! I'll post TWO verses, and next person can take their pick

The summer ends and we wonder who we are
And there you go my friends with your boxes in your car
And today I passed the high school, the river, the maple tree
I passed the farms that made it
Through the last days of the century
And I knew that I was going to learn again
Again, in this less hazy light
I saw the fields beyond the fields,
the fields beyond the fields
And the colors are much brighter now
It's like they really want to tell the truth
We give our testimony to the end of the summer
It's the end of the summer, you can spin the light to gold

"The End of Summer" - Dar Williams


Round the hangin tree
Swaying in the breeze
In the summer sun
As we two are one
Swaying

I'm having so much fun with this game. It's music lyric trivia really. They should play this at bars like they do Quizzo. Drinks all around!

Do you see the way that tree bends?
Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays
A lesson to be applied
are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip?
you can spend your time alone, redigesting past regrets, oh
or you can come to terms and realize
you're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
makes much more sense to live in the present tense

You can find the answer
The solution lies within the problem
The answer is in every question
Dig it?
An attitude is all you need to rise and walk away
Inspire yourself
Your life is yours
It fits you like your skin

I've got a question if I may (yeah)
Is it gay
To play putt putt golf with a friend (yeah)
And watch his butt butt when he tees off (yeah)
But but I ain't done yet
In football the quarterback yells out hut hut while he reaches in another grown man's ass
Grabs on his nuts but just what if
It was never meant
It was just an accident

What would you do if I sang out tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Hmm, I get high with a little high from my friends
I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends

You gotta roll with it
You gotta take your time
You gotta say what you say don't let anybody get in your way
Cuz it's just too much for me to take
Don't ever stand aside
Don't ever be denied
You gotta be who you be if you're coming with me
I think I've got a feeling I've lost inside
I think I wanna take me away and hide
I think of things that I just can't describe

I know the roads down which your life will drive
I found the key that lets you slip inside
Kiss the girl she's right behind the door
You know I think I recognize your face, but I've never seen you before
