[Billy's Little Trip]

Konichihuahua music freaks

A beautiful day in pair of dice
42 dots from the backsides

Saturday on the forum
I think it was 18th of August
Saturday on the forum
I really don't have the foggiest
People typing, people laughing
A man selling cell phones
Singing Italian songs
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
Chicago remix by BLT

Question Of The Day:
What is that song that you never quite knew the lyrics to, but sing it Homer Simpson style over and over in your head with your own words?
You can find the original lyrics here. Now copy and paste the line, verse or chorus with your changes. If you don't roll like Homer, then make one up.

I don't sing the above Chicago song Homer style, but it popped in my head because, yep, you guessed it, it's Saturday, woo hoo! Oh, and it gave me the idea for the QOTD. I'll get back later with my song(s) that I sing wrong.

I'll sometimes make up new words on the spot to songs, but I usually know the lyrics.

QOTD: At work, where they've become... desensitized... to my rantings and bursts of obscenity, I like to sing a little song from time to time. And even dance about, when the urge is strong enough, reeling like a drunken leprechaun with a smoking shotgun in each hand.

The tune is "Frere Jacques". Every phrase is replaced with "Fuck you". It fits quite nicely, you may find.

Yes, I have a few issues. It's not just a board alias, it's a way of life.

six days and counting

I too have issues with Come On, Eileen.

Eileen come on to loo rye eh.
Come on Eileen to loor rye eh.

So, how do you phrase it for the "morning bells are ringing" part? Fucky ucky uck you, fucky ucky uck you?

I'm so fucky ucky ucking easily amused, lol. Thanks for the laugh Rabid.

I wreck the words to most songs, but sadly, usually not on purpose. My favorite current deliberate substituter is Party Lights by Junior Brown. "She's a guuuy...who has to go potty and stay out late at night" And what's that about tissues for Eileen?

Shit, I'm getting nervous, Rabid!

I don't listen to Springstein, but that song, "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out". I've always thought that he was saying, "Tit Devil You Freezah". I just thought it was about some cold hearted woman that didz him wrong. You tell me, check it.

"Lick lick, don't mind, three squirts, I'm fine." CLASSIC!!

My wrong lyric story involves the Berlin song "The Metro." I always heard the "swimming through apologies" line as "swimming through a pile of cheese."

Fast forward quite a few years. I'm at Tower Records and I come across a tome called 'Scuse Me While I Kiss This Guy, a book made entirely of misheard song lyrics. I think, "I wonder if that Berlin one is in here?"

The first random page I turned to not only had the line, but a goofy drawing of a guy in scuba gear totally immersed in blocks of cheese.

So you AND the guy that wrote the book, thinks it's "swimming through a pile of cheese"? A book with pictures and cheese, nice. Sounds like a book I can immerse myself in.

edit: OK, just listened, that makes three of us Alb, she most certainly said "swimming through a pile of cheese".

Qotd: "I Want to Get Better" by Nineteen Foot Cactus Kills Gunslinger.

I don't understand so many of those lyrics yet I still love the show and try to sing along.
