A silly little blog for me to drop the excrement of my mind.

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

She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin'
through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cos I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
And I'm Free, free fallin
Yeah I'm Free, Free fallin'

Over men and horses, hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire
In this way Mr. K. will challenge the world!

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I were to say to you
Girl, you couldn't get any higher

Come on baby, light my fire

I've been a bad, bad girl.
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad, sad world
When a girl breaks a boy just because she can

While you make pretty speeches
I'm being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions
A delicate balance

So wonderfully, wonderfully, wonderfully, wonderfully pretty,
You know that I'd do anything for you
We should have each other for dinner
We should have each other with cream
Then curl up by the fire and sleep for a while
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream

Munching on a ham and cheese sando in the morning on Friday
Cruising down the Pacific Highway
Thinking 'bout the day ahead

I paid the rent cheque, got my registration and phone bill
If those two don't overthrow me the dogs will
But heck at least I know the taste of bread

Why do I seem to spend my whole damn life chasing paper?
I'm like an actor turned singer turned waiter
I'll wait around until I meet with my maker
Then I'll sign up for AA or something

I just wish there was some other way to get myself somewhere
This little strip of earth and all that I've done there
I'm like a bull-ant on the leg of a sunchair
Under a magnifying glass

I wish somebody would build a bridge
So I could get over myself
On my own I'm wasting my time

Brother Pele's in the back, sweet Zina's in the front
Cruising down the freeway in the hot, hot sun
Suddenly red-blue lights flash us from behind
Loud voice booming, "Please step out onto the line"
Pele preaches words of comfort, Zina just hides her eyes
Policeman taps his shades, "Is that a Chevy '69?"

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend.
We've known each other since we're nine or ten.
Together we climbed hills or trees.
Learned of love and ABC's,
skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.

Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die,
when all the birds are singing in the sky,
Now that the spring is in the air.
Pretty girls are everywhere.
When you see them I'll be there.

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the Sun.
But the hills that we climbed
were just seasons out of time.

Big business it don't like you
It don't like the things you do
You got no money
So you got no power
They think you're useless
An' so you are - puuuuuuunnnnnk!

They had a meeting in Mayfair
They got you down an'
They wanna keep you there
It makes them worried
Their bank accounts
That's all that matters
And you don't count

Can't make no progress
Can't get ahead
Can't stop the regress
Don't wanna be dead

Look out' those rules and regulations

Hey.... have you ever tried
Really reaching out for the other side?
I may be climbing on rainbows
But baby, here goes...
Dreams are for those who sleep
Life is for us to keep
And if you're wondering what this song is leading to,

I'd like to Make it with you

I really think that we could Make it, girl

I enjoyed this forum lyric game so much the first time around, I just Had to revive it...hope you don't mind, Blue Dev.

Here are BlueDev's game 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."

So, I'll just continue from the above post, and choose the word "Song" to continue with:

"It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my ~song~ and this one's for you."

"Your Song"
By Elton John

Now, your turn.

Here I stand, head in hand,
turn my face to the wall;
If she's gone, I can't go on,
feeling two foot small....

How could she say to me
"Love will find a way"?
Gather 'round, all you clowns,
Let me hear you say...

Hey! You've got to hide your love away.
Hey! You've got to hide your love away.

"And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonder~~wall~~."
