Let's dance put on your red shoes and dance the blues

Let's dance to the song
they're playin' on the radio

Let's sway
while color lights up your face

Let's sway
sway through the crowd to an empty space

If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide

Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two
If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower

Let's dance for fear
your grace should fall
Let's dance for fear tonight is all

Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight,
this serious moonlight

If you say run, I'll run with you
If you say hide, we'll hide

Because my love for you
Would break my heart in two

If you should fall
Into my arms
And tremble like a flower

Let's dance put on your red shoes
and dance the blues

Let's dance to the song
they're playin' on the radio

Let's sway you could look into my eyes
Let's sway under the moonlight,

Don't MAKE me pull out the Christian rock lyrics!

by maecuff

I LIKE David Bowie. That one doesn't bother me either. Besides, I'm listening to a mix CD with The Clash and Tom Petty which makes me immune.

Tonight, when I can't fall asleep, all this will come back to haunt me.

by tig2

If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I?d worked for all my life.
And I had to start again,
with just my children and my wife.

I?d thank my lucky stars,
to be livin here today.
?Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
and they can?t take that away.

And I?m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.

From the lakes of Minnesota,
to the hills of Tennessee.
Across the plains of Texas,
From sea to shining sea.

From Detroit down to Houston,
and New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart,
and its time we stand and say.

That I?m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.

And I?m proud to be and American,
where at least I know I?m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
?Cause there ain?t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.

At least something I can be proud to post...

Humidity is rising - Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took off to heaven and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Ame---------nnnn!

I feel stormy weather / Moving in about to begin
Hear the thunder / Don't you lose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took off to heaven and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy
It's Raining Men! Yeah!

I could brighten your day!

I don't get embarrassed, I just embarrass my kids at the grocery store by singing along to whatever is playing. They just stay away from me and act like they don't know me. It's great being a mom!

by vanessaj

You haven't lived until you've heard all the old "holler" drinking songs that were popular throughout WV, KY, etc. in the 70's. They make great campfire songs. You almost HAVE to sing them around a fire with friends and a beer in your hand. Fun.

by tig2

... my revenge. Till then, sniff on this!

Every night in my dreams
I see you. I feel you.
That is how I know you go on.

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not
go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

by vanessaj

...or was it an intentional mental block. Thanks for nothing. I don't know about anyone else, but you finally hit me where it hurts the most.

by dmambo

I'm not going to search for all the lryics, but....

Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you goooo?
Timothy, Timothy, God, why don't I knoooow?

Man, that one was bad. In elementary school, it was rumored to be either about cannibalism, or eating a working mule after a mine disaster.

Came out around the same time as "The Boys Are Back in Town", which I just heard on the classic rock station last Sunday.

by maecuff

about cannibalism. And I was deeply disturbed by that song as a child.

Trapped in a mine that had caved in
And everyone knows the only ones left
Were Joe and me and Tim
When they broke through to pull us free
The only ones left to tell the tale
Were Joe and me

Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?
Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?

Hungry as hell no food to eat
And Joe said that he would sell his soul
For just a piece of meat
Water enough to drink for two
And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig
And then there's some for you."

Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you
Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?

I must have blacked out just around then
'Cause the very next thing that I could see
Was the light of the day again
My stomach was full as it could be
And nobody ever got around
To finding Timothy

by dmambo

This post mentions a song that is too smaltzy to think about on the same day that Syd Barett died. But it was loved by a girl that I lusted over in junior high. That song is.......

Precious and few are the moments we two can share.
Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you.
And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair.
Precious and few are the moments we two can share.

Baby, it's you on my mind, your love is so rare.
Being with you is a feeling I just can't compare.
And if I can't hold you in my arms, it just wouldn't be fair.
Cause' Precious and few are the moments we two can share.

And if I can't find my way back home it just wouldn't be fair
Cause' Precious and few are the moments we two can share.

ick!!!!!

by vanessaj

am I not surprised. Really Mambo. Glad I don't know the tune - the thought of the words, alone, will haunt me. I can't believe that this song made it onto the air? That's just gross. I do remember one when I was little - mid-late 60's, that, I think, was entitled DOA. Anyone remember that one? One line was, "I remember, we were flying low...and we hit something in the air..."

That one gets to me, too. Very eerie music. But I remember it for some reason.

by tig2

When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you

If your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star as dreamers do

(Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing)

Like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true

My mind is like a big cluttered attic. I can put something up there, but five minutes later, it's lost never to be found again.

Ya know, kind of like the last scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

by ontheropes

Exactly what I was looking for but I need to study up some I think. I have good shoes. Cabela's in Dundee is the only store that carry's my size shoe. Big feet. They have Goretex linings and haven't ever really made my feet sweat and they FIT perfectly. Expensive though. I think they have Platinum eyelets or genuine silk laces or something.

I knew better than to start out without water but hey.... I'm NeverBusted so I does as I pleases.

BTW. You know what they say about a guy that has really big feet don't you?

The sun will come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!

Just thinking about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!

When I'm stuck in a day
That's gray and lonely
I just stick out my chin
And grin, and say...

The sun will come out
Tomorrow
So you gotta hang on 'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya, tomorrow
You're always a day away

Am immune to THAT earwig. Try this:

Got on board a westbound seven forty seven
Didn't think before deciding what to do
Ooh, that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true

{Refrain}
Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Out of work, I'm out of my head
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
I'm underloved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home
It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
Had offers but don't know which one to take
Please don't tell 'em how you found me
Don't tell 'em how you found me
Gimme a break, give me a break

OR

Talking to myself and feeling old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothing ever seems to fit

Hangin around, nothing to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

What Ive got they used to call the blues
Nothing is really wrong
Feeling like I don't belong

Walking around some kind of lonely clown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you
Its nice to know somebody loves me

Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do
To run and find the one who loves me

(*) what I feel has come and gone before
No need to talk it out
We know what its all about

Hanging around, nothing to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do
Run and find the one who loves me...
Repeat (*)

Hangin around, nothing do to but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

HA!

by ontheropes

I remember way back when I was just a boy
going places with my mom and dad
it used to scare me to death how momma used to act
after 6 or 7 beers she's had
we were sitting at a table
when momma got disabled
all the liquor running to her head
soon I got to chokin daddy wasnt jokin
when he grabbed me by the arm and said

dont look now mommas got her boobs out
showin everybody in town
our faces turning red
we were wishing we were dead
there were people standing all around
when momma gets a drinking there aint much thinking
theres nothing anybody can do
just hope and pray there never comes a day
when mommas out drinking with you

by maecuff

I had to open it. How could I not?

And, I'm not really scary. I just pretend that I am.

But really, was that necessary? It could be worse..

On the day that you were born, the angels got together and decided to create a dream come true..

I type that at my own risk, that's one that sticks to me.

by maecuff

I'm surprised you don't remember that one. You seem to remember the same songs I do, so I have to assume we're close to the same age.

Maybe you just blocked it?

by vanessaj

it apparently did me no good today. And I believe we are close to the same age (continuation of the age thread to be discussed in private conversation)...

But I'm waiting for Dawg or Mambo to come up with something sicker. Until then...yuck.

by dmambo

Did I just get lumped into the same pile of sh!t as the Dawg?!?

I demand my own pile.

Not nice, Vanessa, not nice.

Soggies suck

I was sitting up at night
I was feeling so uptight
I was just fucking around
There was something dragging me down

Thinking of a bite to eat
Thought this would be really neat
Cheerios are stale that's beat
But Captain Crunch is fun to eat

Captain Crunch, Captan Crunch
He's inviting you to munch
Captain Crunch, Captain Crunch
Munch a bunch a munch a munch

Fuck my brain

Scoffing down this yellow wheat
Is making me feel kind of beat
My head is spinning round and round
Now my teeth are turning brown

My face is starting to come apart
From this overdose of starch
I really wish mom wasn't here
I'll have another box of beer

Captain Crunch, Captain Crunch
He's inviting you to munch
Captain Crunch, Captain Crunch
Munch a bunch a munch a munch

Take THIS!

Strolling along country roads with my baby
It starts to rain, it begins to pour
Without an umbrella we're soaked to the skin
I feel a shiver run up my spine
I feel the warmth of her hand in mine

Oo, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Oo, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

After a while we run under a tree
I turn to her and she kisses me
There with the beat of the rain on the leaves
Softly she breathes and I close my eyes
Sharing our love under stormy skies

Oo, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Oo, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside
I feel the warmth of her hand in mine

Oo, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Oo, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside
Oo, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Oo, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

Remember, YOu forced it from me.

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

You're the one who makes me happy honey
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine

I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah

I just busted ya:

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

Time
You found time enough to love
And I found love enough to hold you
So tonight, I'll stir the fire you feel inside
Until the flames of love enfold you

Layin beside you, lost in the feeling
So glad you opened my door
Come with me
Somewhere in the night we will know
Everything lovers can know
You're my song
Music too magic to end
I'll play you over and over again
Lovin so warm, movin so right
Closing our eyes, and feeling the light
We'll just go on burning bright
Somewhere in the night

You'll sleep
When the morning comes
And I'll lie and watch you sleeping
And you'll smile, when you dream about the night
Like its a secret you've been keeping

Layin beside you lost in the feeling
So glad you opened my door
You're my song
Music too magic to end
I'll play you over and over again
Lovin so warm, moving so right
Closing our eyes and feeling the light
We'll just go on burning bright
Somewhere in the night
We'll just go on burning bright
Somewhere in the night.

UUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I love to love you baby...

Do it to me again and again
you put me in such an awful spin
in a spin...

I love to love you baby...

Lay your head down real close to me
soothe my mind and set me free
set me free...

I love to love you baby...

I'm trying to do meaningful, productive tasks here at work, and I can't getthese blasted Disco songs outta my head.

There's nothing like absent-mindedly humming "It's raining men" as you walk past the Recepionist desk, seeing her expression, and then trying to explain the whole situation.

Then , after your explination, it catches on with your co-workers, and all of a sudden it looks like a scene out of a bad 80's movie.

I think I've been standing too close to jd.

by tig2

Stay away from Jd.

For that matter- stay away from ME. I know lots of songs...

:)

by j.lupo

this one. But that doesn't surprise me.

Gypsies, Tramps, and Theives is one of the oldies that I remember. Oh and:

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun

by x-marcap

Imagine Howard Cosel reading it, with his insipid pauses

We had Joy We had fun
We had seasons in the Sun

The CIA should use that as a torture and we could have the Club Gitmo confessions in minutes...

by vanessaj

on the crass side, but cool, funny, sarcastic, witty, often shows signs of intelligent life, never posts a straight argument...wait, who was I talking about...you or dawg?

Okay, okay, sorry. You can get a pile all your own...I won't say a pile of what though.

by mickster269

Heck, I had to play that song in Jr. High School band!

I played baritone, so I particularily remember the bridge. And the gaggle of clarinets squaking away on the refrain...and..and..

::sobs::

Oh, for all that is good and holy ! Make the pain stop!!!

::SHAKES FIST AT THE SKY::

by vanessaj

be ashamed of yourself inflicting pain & suffering on the world of "tech"ers. We have to deal with the public, stupid coworkers that we support and bosses that are worse than the aforementioned two. Yet that wasn't enough, was it? SOMEONE had to start an irresistable earwig post and now all heck has broken loose! I guess one really does reap what one sows, doesn't one!

Since this is, technically, your discussion, have you picked a winner with the worst song (in your opinion) yet? Which one causes you the most pain? It was the Madonna one for me. She's just the worst.

by mickster269

In the Great Library Fire of Alexandria.

As for worst Earwig- I think we all have our private demons that haunt us. Who am I to say which is the worst ?

Sugar, ah, honey, honey
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you
Honey, ah, sugar, sugar
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you

I just can't believe the loveliness of loving you
(I just can't believe it's true)
I just can't believe the one to love this feeling to
(I just can't believe it's true)

Ah, sugar, ah, honey, honey
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you
Honey, ah, sugar, sugar
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you

When I kissed you, girl, I knew how sweet a kiss could be
(I know how sweet a kiss can be)
Like the summer sunshine pour your sweetness over me
(Pour your sweetness over me)

Sugar, pour a little sugar on it, honey
Pour a little sugar on it, baby
I'm gonna make your life so sweet, yeah yeah yeah!
Pour a little sugar on it oh, yeah!
Pour a little sugar on it, honey
Pour a little sugar on it, baby
I'm gonna make your life so sweet, yeah yeah yeah!
Pour a little sugar on it, honey!

Sugar, ah, honey, honey
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you
Honey, ah, sugar sugar
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you

Sugar, ah, honey, honey
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you
Honey, ah, sugar sugar
You are my candy girl
And you've got me wanting you

by j.lupo

I resemble that song! :) Don't worry, I am just plugging away. The whole team is now working 50-70 hour weeks. All because of some really crappy planning early on for this project. The song is so very true. :)

At least I find time - even at midnite - to go walkin with the pugs down under the boardwalk

by j.lupo

I used to like that song, but that is the only verseI could remember from it. Someone once pointed me to a website that had the whole song. ;)

by mjwx

If they didn?t avert your eyes now and avoid the pain.

What am I gonna do - what about the future?
Gotta draw the line without delay
Why shouldn't I get emotional - the bush is sacred
Ancient life will fade away

Over the hill they go, killing another mountain
Gotta fill the quota - can't go slow
Huge machinery wiping out the scenery
One big swipe like a shearer's blow

Rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
Throw it in the bin, no news today
Nightmare, dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
Chainsaw, eyesore - more decay

Remember the axemen knew their timber
Cared about the way they brought it down
Crosscut, blackbutt, tallowood and cedar
Build another bungalow - pioneer town

I am the bush and I am koala
We are one - go hand in hand
I am the bush like Banjo and Henry
It's in my blood - gonna make a stand

Rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
Throw it in the bin, no news today
Nightmare, dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
Chainsaw, eyesore - more decay

Rip rip woodchip - turn it into paper
Throw it in the bin - don't understand
Nightmare, dreaming - can't you hear the screaming?
Stirs my blood - gonna make a stand

HA, Suffer John Williamson, there?s a Rolf Harris version too [b]with wobble board[/b].

Also,

There's a track winding back to an o-old fashioned shack
Along the road to Gundagai
Where the blue gums are growin' and the Murrumbidgee's flowin'
Beneath the sunny sky
There my mother and daddy are waitin' for me
And the pals of my childhood once more I shall see
Then no more will I roam when I'm headin' straight for home
Along the road to Gundagai,

And there?s plenty more Slim Dusty where that came from.

by mjwx

You?ve bought back all the horrible memories of the music [b]my parents[/b] used to listen to and this one came to mind (BTW not to make anyone feel old).

Is it all in that pretty little head of yours?
What goes on in that place in the dark?
Well I used to know a girl and I could have sworn
that her name was Veronica
Well she used to have a carefree mind of her own
and a delicate look in her eye
These days I'm afraid she's not even sure if her

name is Veronica

Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes,
Veronica has gone to hide?
and all the time she laughs at those who shout
her name and steal her clothes.
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica

Did the days drag by? Did the favours wane?
Did he roam down the town all the while?
did you wake from your dream, with a wolf at
the door, reaching out for Veronica
Well it was all of sixty-five years ago
When the world was the street where she lived
And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea
With a picture of Veronica

On the "Empress of India"
And as she closed her eyes upon the world and
picked upon the bones of last week's news
She spoke his name outloud again

Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes,
Veronica has gone to hide?
and all the time she laughs at those who shout

her name and steal her clothes.
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica

Veronica sits in her favorite chair
she sits very quiet and still
when they called her a name that they never get right
and that they'l know nobody else will

well she used to have a carefree mind of her own
with a devilish look in her eye
saying you can call me anything you like
but my name is Veronica

Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes,
Veronica has gone to hide?
and all the time she laughs at those who shout

her name and steal her clothes.
Veronica, Veronica, Veronica

by mjwx

You can tell the world you never was my girl
You can burn my clothes when I'm gone
Or you can tell your friends just what a fool I've been
And laugh and joke about me on the phone

You can tell my arms to go back onto the phone
You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lilps to tell my fingertips
They won't be reaching out for you no more

But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don't think it'd understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

You can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas
Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg
Or tell your brother Cliff who's fist can tell my lips
He never really liked me anyway

Oh tell your Aunt Louise, tell anything you please
Myself already knows that I'm okay
Oh you can tell my eyes to watch out for my mind
It might be walking out on me today

But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don't think it'd understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don't think it'd understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

Don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

Don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

Now THAT is an earwig! One that eats right through your brain like the one that Star Trek! If it really WERE a one-up-manship thing, you would definitely win. That one's aweful!!!

by vanessaj

thing. Posting is easier because you get to think about it and reread it before you send it...and even then you can edit afterwards. Have you ever been in a group of people and thought you were going to be really witty and after you speak everyone gets the same look on their faces like deer in the headlights? Do you know that look? Maybe someone else made the social faux pas, and you were one of those people trying furiously to think of something to take away the stupidity that was just spoken? I could die!

It has happened to me at least twice. And I could never find the hole to crawl into. Sometimes I guess what I think is really funny - others just really don't.

Anyway, you can probably count on me if there's going to be any buzz-killing around here...don't worry...you're safe.

I got this one tonight:

It's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
"She blinded me with science!"
And failed me in biology

When I'm dancing close to her
"Blinding me with science - science!"
I can smell the chemicals
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"
"Science!"

Mmm - but it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
And failed me in geometry

When she's dancing next to me
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"
I can hear machinery
"Blinding me with science - science!"
"Science!"

It's poetry in motion
And now she's making love to me
The spheres are in commotion
The elements in harmony
She blinded me with science
"She blinded me with science!"
And hit me with technology

"Good heavens Miss Sakamoto - you're beautiful!"
I -I don't believe it!
There she goes again!
She's tidied up, and I can't find anything!
All my tubes and wires
And careful notes
And antiquated notions

But! - it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
"She blinded me with - with science!"
She blinded me with

Angie, angie, when will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, angie, where will it lead us from here?
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You cant say were satisfied
But angie, angie, you cant say we never tried
Angie, youre beautiful, but aint it time we said good-bye?
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried?
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear:
Angie, angie, where will it lead us from here?
Oh, angie, dont you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But angie, angie, aint it time we said good-bye?
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You cant say were satisfied
But angie, I still love you, baby
Evrywhere I look I see your eyes
There aint a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby, dry your eyes
But angie, angie, aint it good to be alive?
Angie, angie, they cant say we never tried

Okay, it's been days and the same stupid song has been driving you nuts. I will admit, this IS drastic, but it WILL cure you of your earwig.

Shoot yourself in the head.

Now..if anyone else has any problems, please feel free to ask for my advice.. :)

by j.lupo

So, a stupid song is going around and around and around someone's head. A sure fire way to get rid of it, is to share with your [b]enemies][\b] :) Ooops I mean friends. ;)

Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you toss them over your shoulder like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?

I never heard the one you is talkin about. Besides, all this music is making me go ga-ga so I thought some kiddie songs would be appropriate. :)

by thefrown

Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with A-B-C
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

[Maria:]
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
[spoken]
Let's see if I can make it easy

Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)

[Maria and Children:]
[Repeat above verse twice]

[Maria:]
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
So-do!

[Maria: (spoken)]
Now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on
are only the tools we use to build a song.
Once you have these notes in your heads,
you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up.
Like this.

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
[spoken]
Can you do that?
[Children:]
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
[Maria:]
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Children:]
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Maria:]
[spoken]
Now, put it all together.

[Maria and Children:]
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do
[Maria:]
[spoken]
Good!
[Brigitta:]
[spoken]
But it doesn't mean anything.
[Maria:]
[spoken]
So we put in words. One word for every note. Like this.

When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
[spoken]
Together!

[Maria and Children:]
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything

Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re

[Children:]
Do Mi Mi
Mi So So
Re Fa Fa
La Ti Ti
[Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings]

[Maria:]
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything

[Maria and Children:]
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to

[Maria:]
[Children:]

Do . . . So Do
Re . . . La Fa
Mi . . . Mi Do
Fa . . . Re
So . . . So Do
La . . . La Fa
Ti . . . La So Fa Mi Re
Ti Do - oh - oh Ti Do -- So Do

Just suffered a round trip on the wonderful British rail system from Hertfordshire to Kent and back again to visit another public sector site ... so I thought I'd spread the misery.

The really sad thing is you'll read the lot!

by krose

It's just one of those songs
That you hear now and then,
That comes into fashion
And goes out again.

It's just one of those songs
That you thought you forgot,
But it's one of those songs
You have not.

As NOT sung by Suzi Quatro to the tune of "Devil Gate Drive"

Spoken}"Hey, you all want to go round the M25?
Well, come on"!

"Welcome to 'The Car Park'!"

Well, the Dartford tun-
nel is junction one
On the M25
And exit twenty-four
Is for Potter's Bar
On the M25
Well you never damn know
How the traffic will flow
On the M25
As around you can go
Sometimes it's fast,
And sometime it's slow
When you drive
Round the M25

{Chorus}
So come and drive.
Come and drive
Round the M25

So come and drive.
Come and drive
Round the motorway, round the motorway
Round the M25
Round the motorway, round the motorway
Round the M25

At the junction fourteen,
Folks get really mean
On the M25
From there to thirteen,
Where roadworks have been
They're for Terminal Five
There's a guy behind
Sitting right on my a**, sayin'
Pull over, man
Let me past, let me past
Don't mess me 'round,
'cause I wanna go FAST!
When I drive
Round the M25

{Repeat Chorus}

Well it always goes slow
As you go past Heathrow
Round the M25,
You can go near to Wo-
King and Leatherhead
(Where is that? I dunno)
As you drive
Round the M25

{Repeat Chorus}

{Spoken} "Come on, boys. Was that our exit?
Are we nearly there yet?"

Come and drive. Come and drive
Yeah!

In the 70s, in order to protect our culture from the ravenous machine to the south of us, the Canadian government created the Canadian content rules, which dictated that 30% of the songs played were Canadian.

What is a Canadian song, you may ask. Well Oz could probably describe the arcane rules which includes points for Canadian authoriship, production and performance. When Lenny Kravitz performs "American Woman" on an album produced in the US, as a US artist, he gets far fewer points than the original performed and produced by The Guess Who.

Sadly "seasons in the sun" was 100% Can con eligible and we heard way too much of it. Ditto "Sometimes when we touch"(sidenote I lived on the same street as Dan Hill for while). Ditto "Stay with you awhile" by the Bells (written by Frank Mills, who also wrote Music Box Dancer, I performed at one stop of Frank's Farewell tour..thats another story).

So you know what, if thats your criteria, I've been to hell and back. I prefer Nickelback to that mid to late 70s can con crap.

by vanessaj

If you never heard it you were never in the Girl Scounts in America in the 60's. That one and "Make New Friends" were the all-time brain-drainers. We also had one about the land "down under" as I recall...something about a kukaburra (sp?)bird sitting in an old gum tree...merry little king of the tree is he...laugh kukaburra...etc. etc. Too painful to remember the whole song. But it was a fun time singing wtih hundreds of other little girls in the coluseum.

It was the 70s for me unless my Mom brought me along in diapers :) Yea I was born in the 60s, but I remember lots of songs since my sisters are older and were in GS before me. I learned lots from them.

For me brownies and girl scouts were a blur. But hey we used to make up our own songs like our bus song - bus spelled bus bus BUS spells bus. ;)

We had our share, I just don't remember them now.

by jaqui

is still in effect, it is the raison d' etre for the CRTC.

but there was some good stuff from the beginning of Can Con.

BTO did a lot of good stuff, as did Doug and the Slugs, Chilliwack had one decent tune [ concidering the size of the town they were named after, that is about right ;) ] quite a few other bands from that time were always thought to be Ameican but were actually from Vancouver. :)

by jamesrl

I am aware that Can Con is out there today.

I think BTO, Alanis Morrisette, Bare Naked Ladies etc. etc. would still be out there whether or not Can Con rules are in effect.

Doug and the Slugs, I hired them a couple of times for conventions, talked to Doug a few times. Probably on the borderline.

My point was that at one point in the disco era(Canada didn't produce much Disco) Can con gave us a lot of soft canadian crap rock like "seasons in the sun", Sometimes when we touch" etc. I'm sure we would have most if not all of the good stuff without can con.

by berak

... that Tig has children. Mae, the first tune was from the Disney animated film "The Aristocats", the second one was from the classic "Snow White and The Seven Dwarves". (And, yes, I remember when "Billy Don't Be a Hero" was first released.)

by berak

... try "Dirty Deeds Done With Sheep", a parody of AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap". Or dang near anything that "Wierd" Al Yankovic has done. (And it all began with "Another One Rides The Bus")

I wish I had a link for the lyrics "Wierd" Al's stuff but I am sure it is out there. It is would appeal to nerds and geeks (and I say that proudly) like us.


Edit: I have since found out that "Dirty Deeds (Done With Sheep) was NOT done done by "Weird" Al, but is credited to Dr. Demento.

The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall

Old Doors songs and "Put the lime in the coconut" are the kinds of things that get stuck in my head.

Yeah, I'm sick and twisted.

by berak

Some ELP ("Karn Evil 9 - First Impression, Part 2", from "Brain Salad Surgery")! It's one of the few ELP tracks that seems to any air play anymore. (At least on the Classic Rock station here.)

by berak

... and you will be looking the 9mm to put yourself out of your misery

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another, she paid it for a lime.
She put the lime in the coconut, and drank them both up
She put the lime in the coconut, and drank them both up
She put the lime in the coconut,
Called the doctor, woke him up, and said,
"Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take,
I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?
I say, Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take,
I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?"

"Now let me get this straight;
You put the lime in the coconut, you drank them both up
You put the lime in the coconut, you drank them both up
You put the lime in the coconut,
called your doctor, woke him up, and said,
'Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take,
I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?
I say, Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take,
I say, Doctor, to relieve this belly ache?'

You put the lime in the coconut, and drink them both down,
You put the lime in the cocount, you're such a silly woman!
Put the lime in the coconut, and drink them both together,
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning."

by berak

I have had this song and another parody, "Another One Rides The Bust" doing a tag team event in my head. It's my own fault, I had to go mention them earlier.

Now I am going to share the "love"

sung to the tune of "Dirty Deeds (Done Dirt Cheap"

*Birds Chirping*
*Pig Squeal*
*Rooster Crows*
If your having trouble with your barnyard friends
You've got a thing for Huuueees
Been counting sheep
But your not in bed
Here's what you gotta do

Get off the barn
Stay off the Farm
Go read a nursery rhyme
Dialing 976 B-A-A
That kind of love's a crime

Dirty Deeds done with sheep
Dirty Deeds Little Boe Peep
Dirty Deeds and there done with Sheep *baaa*
Dirty Deeds and there done with sheep *baaa*

My friend, Larry, has a little lamb
Her fleece is as white as snow
He keeps bragging 'bout her night and day
Someone should tell him no
Look at the Flock, they're all in shock
Here comes that mutton fan
Knock at the fleece, give them some peace
Don't be a Barnyard Man, Noo

Dirty Deeds done with sheep
Dirty Deeds Little Boe Peep
Dirty Deeds and there done with Sheep *baaa*
Dirty Deeds and there done with sheep *baaa*

Velcro Gloves, Knee Pads, Late Night Dates
DONE WITH SHEEP
Warning Signs, Electric Fences, *baa* High Voltage
DONE WITH SHEEP

Dirty Deeds
Don't tell them what I dome to you
Done with sheep
Dirty Deeds
Dirty Deeds
Done with Sheep *loud groan/yell*

*baa, Baa*

Quiet Cows... I think the Shepards coming

With some parodies, you'll never be able to hear the original the same way again.
