We have a inside cat, but lately she is going nuts trying to get out. We've given up -- we'll get the collar, tag ..... and bells. I've created a little rolling stones type backing track. Heck, it's probably a direct lift from some stones song that I can't place. I haven't done much lead electric lately, gonna be a little on the rusty side.
Ring Them Bells
(c) Emmrich 2009
(verse)
You wanna go out
you wanna explore
You're always crying
by the front door
(verse)
As soon as you're out
you want back in
sometimes I think
you're wearing a great big grin
(chorus)
Ring them bells
you're a cat on the run
ring them bells
if it's a game, you've won
Ring them bells
you're driving me crazy
yea, ring them bells
now you want your feast with gravy
(instrumental break)
(verse)
it's time to come in
you're no where to be found
I'm listening for that
that ringing sound
(verse)
I close the door
and give up
and now I hear you
doing the homecoming strut
(chorus again)
Ring Them Bells

Re: Ring Them Bells
Ring Them Bells
Naked Philosophy
Face down in the dirt
At least it isn't shit this time
You gave two nickels
And they returned a dime
We went to work yesterday
We will go again today
Maybe today, the buses run on time
Ring them bells my friend, my friend
Those awful days are at an end
You're pleased to know that he is dead
So ring them bells my friend, my friend
Looking up at the sky
At least it isn't smog this time
They took two nickels
And then they stole a dime
A handful of dirty knives
Taking all their dirty lives
Yesterday, everything was fine
Ring them bells my friend, my friend
Those awful days are at an end
You're pleased to know that he is dead
So ring them bells my friend, my friend
It was yesterday, it is today
It was yesterday, it is today
So ring them bells my friend, my friend
To start the same old things again
Nothing changes in the end
So ring them bells my friend. my friend

Re: Ring Them Bells
Ring Them Bells - Paco del Stinko
On the day that I was born, on a cold and windy morn
The whole town came out to greet me, everyone there to receive me
But my mama died at birth, and then things got real worse
They said I was a hound of Hell, 'n you'd better go ring them bells
Once they have been rung
It can't be undone
So ring them bells, ring them bells, ring them bells
When I was a young man, all of the bad blood still ran
The people bolted all their doors, locked the saloons and the whores
But it never occurred to me, that I was shunned but still free
When I left town you could tell, by the way they would ring them bells
Once they have been rung
It can't be undone
So ring them bells, ring them bells, ring them bells
Now I ain't never done no wrong
But folks mistook me for bad
For my papa shunned me so
And the mama that I never had
On my last day on the Earth, I'd been long past feeling hurt
An old man all alone, with only a past and no home
A lone soul stepped in my path, and let loose a single gun blast
Before my spilled blood had started to gel, I could hear them ring them bells
Once they have been rung
It can't be undone
So ring them bells, ring them bells, ring them bells

Re: Ring Them Bells
Lock up with me
Test your mettle
Get thrown back
I got a score to settle
Your heartbeat races
Your muscles tense
I gain the advantage
And make you wince
You must be new
Your movements erractic
Pin down your shoulders
It's time for you panic
One Two Three
The ref will be calling
If you mange to escape
Soon again you'll be falling
Ring them bells
This match is over
I hit my finisher
And made the cover
Signal the end
Throw in the towel
I'm just that much better
Your skills are foul
Whether it's on the tramp
Or if it's on the ground
I'll kick your lily butt
From town to town
I'll make you submit
Or just knock you out
I got a million ways
to make you shout
I'm not all talk
But you figured that fast
You're just a jobber
I'm of a higher class
My promos impress you
My gimmick shines
After I'm done with you
The title shall be mine
Ring them bells
This match is over

Re: Ring Them Bells
Ring the Bells
by Ross Durand
She has rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Yeah the mice hear her coming wherever she goes
You should see her dance man that’s her thing
But all I wanna do is make them bells ring
She’s got frills on her skirt and a smile on her face
And her eyes are closed as she moves round the place
And she’s got rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
I’d like to do whatever it takes to make her ring those
Every guy in here is checkin her out
But I don’t think they see what she’s all about
cause there’ gotta be a reason she wears them things
And I can’t wait until I can make them ring
Yeah she’s got rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
And how to get with her I just gotta know
In her dancing clothes she’s long and she’s tall
But I bet they ring best when she’s in nothing at all

Re: Ring Them Bells
RING THEM BELLS
by MC Milk-Plus
We're on a road trip speeding on the tarmac
and everyday is 'Crackerjack'
we're powerpacked with our soundtrack and our anoraks
and my girl hits like an earthquake
yet gentle as a snowflake
She's the ultimate milkshake
Feel like I've won the sweepstake
I've gone out on a limb
No more Milk-plus semi skimmed
No more sink or swim.... I'll fill you in
I've met a braniac, maniac chick who ticks all the boxes
She's the queen of the foxes
And as we head across France through to Spain
I feel a range of changes flooding right through my brain
Shot right to the mark
A sharp dart, but I feel no pain
The Love Loanshark unwraps my heart from its sellophane
And aaaah shit... already I feel a touch unsteady
All light and heady
I don't feel ready.... like Freddie
but I can throw penny after penny in that wishing well
and still know I wanna ring them bells
Chorus
Driving along through the long hot summer
Riding with my baby right beside
Finding a song with a funky drummer
Finally Cupid got it right this time
If this bespectacled rapper were to find a respectable chapel
Would you find yourself compelled to tell me we can ring them bells
Winding along my whole soul's hypnotising
My heart is so light hearted it's a feather
Driving along with our eyes on the horizon
Finally Cupid got his shit together
Would you, could you be my Demerara mama
We could head out to Vegas, or just south of the river
Either way is swell with me
Just say you'll ring them bells with me
There's a lapse with the maps God knows which road we're on
There aint a fat chance in hell we'll find the bloody Bois du Bon
So I hit the gas, turn the music loud and singalong to the next song
'Walking on the Moon' ...and I'm Neil Armstrong
And right now the streets of matrimony seem paved with gold
Out with the old life and in with a new wife
I draw the curtains from my youth to a new truth
I'm the sabre toothed groom with an attitude to match
the catch I've ensnared with this new Karma
I've shed my armour, yet still a nerdcore charmer
but the drama still lies in knowing whether she'll say yes to a proposal that's based on a guess, I gotta confess I'm at her disposal
But what is life but a catalogue of risks
maybe brisk but you gotta spin your disks, gotta spin them well
With every cell you gotta sell your spell
Gotta kiss that bliss, gotta ring them bells
(Repeat Chorus)
Visions of making a home like honeycomb
Filling it with future minature Nerdcore MC's reaching a handful of kilograms,
then rapping about holograms and cryptograms
Sonograms and pentagrams
'cause I could throw penny after penny in that wishing well
and still know I wanna ring them bells
(Repeat Chorus)

Re: Ring Them Bells
by Boltoph
On any other day I might be comfortable with this
but the day you walked in and said that
I don't think I know who's in that body I hold
I don't know who I see when I look at you
But why not?
throw it all away, it always ends the same
I look ahead to the end of all this mess
and the day when I can finally hang my hat
I wonder if the hangman's hiring
I'd step right up and lay my head
lay it right down on the chopping block
the guillotine wedge
And why not?
it always ends this way, it's never gonna change
so why not?
give it all I've got
let it all ring on
let it all ring out
One last look, half a thought is all we've got
split-second glimpse, then lights out, shades shut
take it in, take it on, chug it merrily all down
ring them bells, ring them proud and ring them loud
Ring them bells
ring them out
ring them loud
