501 - By MC Eric B
====================
I dream of a world
where geeks are treated like kings
looks don't matter
nobody wears any bling
Blasting on radios
are nerdcore songs
and its brains not money
that gets girls in thongs
All of the cool kids
want to be like Bill Gates
while the jocks and stoners
just can't get any dates
---------------------
But it's all just a dream
just a silly little dream
It was only a dream
it was only a dream
---------------------
Like the epic battles
of Picard and the Borg
each week I throw down the gauntlet
at Songfight.org
Maybe the results are in
boot up my pc to check
with crazy online voting
You never know what to expect
Am I asleep or awake
I stop to rub my eyes
shown right there on the page
is one hell of a surprise
After all the electronic counting
and tabulation was done
it turns out I entered Songfight
number 500 and won
Chorus
=======================
But it's all just a dream
just a silly little dream
It was only a dream
it was only a dream
I finally won Songfight
I finally won Songfight
I'm a Songfight winner
I'm a Songfight winner
=======================

5 was a number
in love with someone.
Yes, 5 was a number
in love with someone.
5 was in love
with not just anyone.
5 was in love
with the number 1.
Yes, 5 was in love,
with the one and only one.
one. one. one. one. one. one....
What did 5 say,
5 said "oh, one."
What did 5 say,
"You're the only one."
What did 5 say,
5 said "oh, one,
What did 5 say,
"Marry me, hun."
But 1 was the only
one for 1.
Yes, 1 was the only
one for 1.
1 said to 5,
Beat it Jack.
1 said to 5,
Beat it Jack.
Don't need no number
hangin on my back.
It's not quality,
it's quantity that you lack...

Now, we've got an act getting ready to go on. They come from Conway, Arkansas. And they go by the kraziez.
Die, die, die, die, die, let's burn the Ozarks,
and fry fry fry fry fry, let's torch the Osage Plains
the sky sky sky sky sky is filled with smoke, the people wonderin'
why why why why why, it's so damn hot, so goddamn hot
WE ARE THE ARSONISTS OF ARKANSAS
THE FIREBUGS OF OUACHITA
WITH A PACK OF MATCHES READY TO DRAW
WE ARE THE ARSONISTS OF ARKANSAS
i got a zippo lighter and a can of butane
this fuckin' boring landscape strikes me as mundane
so pour the shit on everything, and flick my bic and run
the blaze is spreadin, like detention sex has just begun
i really like fire, we really like fire
it's too bad it's illegal to set em
kind of keeps me very entertained

I went nerdcore this week.
My life up until now has been a nightmare
Living life without a girl, never have someone to care
For at all they just runaway from my zitty face
But again there's a dame that can stick with my pace
She's got an inhaler but she doesn't need it to take my breath away
She's got the most beautiful buns... in her hair
And when I am with her I feel like I am floating in air
After many months of going so steady
I feel like I just might finally be ready
To take that plunge into the shark infested deep end
I want to be able to lend to this friend everything I have to give
And for as long as I live I will cherish her and she'll cherish me
And she will be all that I will believe in til the very end
I pop the question there that night and she stares at me with a mix of shock and fright
I'm sweating bullets, I hope the Force is with me
She says yes, she agrees to be my wifey
Wedding plans start and we are galaxies apart
Nothing seems right and her eyes are throwing darts
I don't see the problem with my wedding theme at all
Inviting the 501st to my wedding took some balls
Having the Imperial March play as we walk down the aisle
Man I could do that every minute, every mile
I think it will be cool and it will bond us to the Force
But she thinks I'm out of my mind of course
So I do the only rational thing I can think to do
I go to facebook and I make a "help me" group
If I get one million to join for good
My fiance promised me that I could
Keep up my plans just like I dreamed
Darth Vader as my best man, can you imagine that scene?
Left, right, left, right
501st is coming tonight
Guns blazing, march playing
I feel like I am high as a kite
Left, right, left, right
501st is coming tonight
Guns blazing, march playing
I feel like I am high as a kite
Two months go by and I reach my half way point
Only a little time left and we've already booked a joint
I send out mass emails to all my bb's and cc's
Hoping they'll reach me and add me and help me in my time of need
In one day I get two thousand adds
My fiances face is red, but she can't be mad
We signed a binding contract she brought herself to this
She'll dress like Leia instead of wearing a wedding dress
I send an email to the 501st telling them my situation
They promise me I won't be cursed and they'll be my relation
They'll recruit all their men to join the group and help me reach my goal
After another week I'm only one away, man this would be so cool
But no one adds as the last day of our contract, this is the end, I've failed
My fiance tells me to check again, I've got one million nailed
What happened since I last checked, who joined that I didn't see
Well what do you know, after all this time, the last one was my wifey
Left, right, left, right
501st is coming tonight
Guns blazing, march playing
I feel like I am high as a kite

who will I pick for my next victim
who will it be?
blonde... early 30s, late 20s
pale skin...brown or hazel eyes
501...
I know you well...
<breath>...so welll..
soon we'll be together...
I wanna see you on your back
bound with your hands tied down
a little blood running from the edge of your lip
while your tears hit the ground
and scream and scream and scream and scream
but you can't... .I don't want you too
what I want to do... in the end...take your life from you
stabbing out your eyes...
501...
your all I want...
necrophiliac....501
you can run...
but you can't escape
that's the fun...

By Steve Durand
I'm kind of inept at relationships
Romantic words don't trip lightly from my lips
I strike out more than half the time
So I could really use
Some romantic aids to help me
Win just one more than I lose
Five hundred and one
Million stars up in the sky
Five hundred and one
Lines of poetry I could recite
Five hundred and one
Dozen roses ought to do
Five hundred and one
Different little ways to show how I love you
And if these things somehow touch your soul
I'll employ them in my quest to reach my goal
I'm trying to score points with you
It's like a game of darts
It's my aim to double out
And hit the bullseye of your heart
Five hundred and one
Million stars up in the sky
Five hundred and one
Lines of poetry I could recite
Five hundred and one
Dozen roses ought to do
Five hundred and one
Different little ways to show how I love you

we are gathered here today
to feed our hearts and pray
we pass around a cup
we bow our head and pay
I come to you as man
do more than I can
because of Him and sin
you are been my biggest fan
am I wrong to save your soul?
am I wrong to save your soul?
now your wife and family
they're fine and so happy
but devils lurk and wait
you know where they might be
in words and hidden tracks
in pictures on the racks
in things we used to know
that change behind our backs
have I been wrong to save your soul?
have I been wrong to save your soul?
you belong to me
you belong to me

Take the right track when you step over the king
Go into the dusk
The hold of the musk will guide you on in
The spirit of syrup is heavy and slow
Who do you trust
Take two if you must
Too late to turn back so just go...too late to turn back
She called me number five hundred and one
It was all over before it had begun
Right at the moment when she sat down
everybody packed up and moved out of town
I was divided (on two sides of a string)
We were united (by the wounds in our skin)
She untied the bow to open my gift
then Jesus spoke and gave the flock a lift
Five hundred and one
And counting
Counting five hundred and one
Five zero one
I saw the panther climb up to her face
It swallowed her whole leaving her grin floating in space
She saw me where I've never seen
a thousand stairs took me out of the dream

Little Miss, little twist
Little country folks insist
That the bar and smoke
Needs to be hot and sweaty
Little rat, a little while
Little shocked that she talked to me
Will we get this far
If you take me there?
A little place called the 501
And I know that it'll take me over
It's all right with me
The 501 are my digits now
A little miss, a little twist
The little things are the things I missed
uh huh
So depressed, passed up what could be
Takes me to this eternity
I've gotta leave
I'm too tired to think
A little place called the 501
And I know that it'll take me over
It's all right with me
The 501 are my digits now

Heeey
She was an amazing woman
Tasked for another -- appreciated Zappa
It was an amazing town
Amazing but not that great
Satire
What kind of satire?
Would make me come to this place come to this place
This godforsaken place
This godforsaken place
Playing bored games
Who sleeps when they're playing board games?
Bar and smoke
Heat and sweat
County folks get their hair ready
Bar and smoke
Heat and sweat
Ah ah ah
