I'm Too Sexy By Right Said Fred ;D

I think my song would be

"Private Investigations" - I like to investigate things.

what album is that off of?


One Foot In The Grave. If you don't have it, GET IT RIGHT AWAY. Or at least that song. And also "A--hole", "14 Rivers, 14 Floods" and "He's A Mighty Good Leader".

It's one of the best albums, I think. Very dark, but very folk.

"1985" by Bowling for Soup. ;D

Just rearrage the lyrics a bit ("she" to "he", and "her two kids in high school" to "all his friends from high school").

There is another song that could almost sum me up:

ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE

  (OPENING)
They say I might as well face the truth
That I am just too long in the tooth.
So I'm an OAP and weak-kneed
But I have not yet quite gone to seed.
I may be over the hill now that I have retired
Fading away but I've not yet expired.
Clapped out, run down, too old to save
One Foot in the Grave.


  (CLOSING)
They say I might as well face the truth
That I am just too long in the tooth.
I've started to deteriorate
And now I've passed my own sell-by date.

Oh, I am no spring chicken it's true.
I have to pop my teeth in to chew.
And my old knees have started to knock
I've just got too many miles on the clock.

So I'm a wrinkly, crinkly, set in my ways.
It's true that my body has seen better days.
But give me half a chance and I can still misbehave.
One Foot in the Grave.
One Foot in the Grave.
One Foot in the Grave.

getting to know all about you' is from some song (will have to do a lyrics search  ???), so my question is this:

If you were a song what song would you be?

8)

I don't know for certain but I think it would be my own soundtrack rather than one song, you know? I can't encapsulate myself into just one song.
  Here's a couple tunes on my personal soundtrack
       Hippie chick: SoHo  I'm not you see, but I love the beat, and the sampling from the Smiths
      Life's Wot U Make It! The group escapes me now but these R strong words in my book.
     Talk Talk: Talk Talk  You know sometimes actions are better than words.
     Pale Shelters: Tears 4 Fears  For all the people who feel turned away.  Not that they find shelter with me...but just sometimes we all feel rejected.
      Tower of Strength: Mission U.K.  The way he sings! And it helps me whenever I hear it.
     Europa: Thomas Dolby
     Enola Gay: O M.D.  Because dropping the bomb on Hiroshima was a terrible event.
     Condemnation: Depeche Mode  Not because my conscious is guilty mind you but again strong feelings and words.


If I figure out more maybe I'll modify tomorrow.

If You Think I'm Sexy Rod Stewart

If You Think I'm Sexy Rod Stewart


According to his Behind the Music episode on VH1, that song was actually sung from a "third party" perspective. In other words, it wasn't Rod saying that about himself (which is funny because, that's what everyone took it as when it came out, LOL).

So, would you be the guy in the song? ;D

I have "Mighty Good Leader" but I heard the album is out of print... I can't find it. This and Mellow Gold are the two albums I haven't heard

Yes I would Marty

yeah, but, wasn't it "D'ya Think I'm Sexy" :)

I make no apologies for this...we all get there someday!

The Oldest Swinger In Town

When you score with a chick in a disco bar
Take her home in your hairy little car
Then you find you went to school with her Ma and Pa
You're the oldest swinger in town

When you won't look in the mirror in the light of day
Swear you dyed it when your hair turns grey
When you zip up your Wranglers and your belly's in the way
You're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come and there you go
Wide wheels, spots and a stereo
But the engine's clapped and the driver also
Is the oldest swinger in town

When the barber takes a little less time each week
The kids don't understand a word you speak
When you walk into a disco and they offer you a seat
You're the oldest swinger in town

You prefer a pint of mild to Bacardi and Coke
The sounds are too loud and there's too much smoke
You'd like another dance, but you're scared you'll have a stroke
You're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come with your chest all bare
A little gold ingot and a lot of gold hair
Like the disco king meets Yogi Bear
You're the oldest swinger in town

When you're feeling as stiff as a skinhead's boot
Rub on 'Vick' where you used to splash 'Brut'
And the latest punk fashion is your wedding suit
You're the oldest swinger in town

When you have to go shopping for your sex appeal
Travolta shades and nine-inch heels
They say a man is just as old as the woman he feels
You're the oldest swinger in town

Here you come with your lips closed tight
You never smile, you know it wouldn't look right
'Cause your dentures glow in ultra-violet light
You're the oldest swinger in town

And you look so mean 'cause your pants are too tight
You're the oldest swinger in town

And it takes you all night to do what you used to do all night
You're the oldest swinger in town...

"I'm So Tired"  by the Beatles

"I'm So Tired"  by the Beatles


Great song - totally underrated on the White Album.

You know what's weird (in a good way of course, lol) -- when I clicked on this post, that's what I happened to be listening to. ;)

P.S. When I was younger (like, much younger) I always thought he was saying "I haven't slept a week" instead of "a wink". ;D

NO way! That should be in the "weird thing of the day" thread!  :D

I would either be:

In my life by The Beatles
(which is somewhat ironic in the fact that it was realeased 4 and a half years before I was born)

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
there is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

or "All the right moves" by Jennifer Warnes and Chris Thompson

All the Right Moves  sung by Jennifer Warnes and Chris Thompson
(from the 1983  motion picture soundtrack of the same name
   starring Tom Cruise and Lea Thompson)

(Chris Thompson)
I don't ask for paradise
just ways to go on my own
It won't mean a thing to me
if I go there alone

(Jennifer Warnes)
They promised us we'd have a chance
That's all we're hoping for
A lucky break is all to do
We can't wait any more

(Both singing chorus)
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose

(Jennifer Warnes)
A look beyond these small-town streets
and see the world out there

(Chris Thompson)
Oh anyone can find their own
if they only dare

(Both singing)
There more for us then giving in
and only getting by
They say we're gonna sink or swim
But we intend to fly

(Both singing chorus)
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose

(Chris Thompson)
They say we're gonna sink or swim

(Jennifer Warnes)
But we intend to fly

(Both singing chorus to fade)
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all
There's no way that we can lose
If we make the right moves
If we make all the right moves
We can show them all  (song fades)

ex Pres, Bill Clinton, said Motown was the soundtrack of his life, so yes, What Soundtrack are you is better, than trying to narrow it down to one song....today I'd be: " When I was younger, so much younger than today, I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured" it was real popular, so you guess the title  :)

Really? I'll send it to you one of these days.

I just said that on the last page ^^^^^^^^^.
We need a personal soundtrack rather than one song to fit every side of our selves.

yeah, but, wasn't it "D'ya Think I'm Sexy" :)



Oh yeah you're right,my bad.

  This is BEATLES --HELP!    (Thank you, now  :P no commentary that I need help....cause I knew what it was.)

What happened to the lyrics I posted from that Nirvana song? I hate when a post gets deleted while I'm gone(maybe I went too far, I've seen word "masturbation" on other threads on this site before).

Well, your lyrics were very naughty.. it's slightly more acceptable to say "masturbation" when it's necessary. But your lyrics were kinda.. well, on the edge. Prolly just got reported or a Mod. caught it or something.

The mods miss a lot, catch a few.

I've had this sort of thing happen on livenirvana, for different reasons(like when I agreed with someone else's post that was negative toward the thread, his post didn't get deleted though, which I found to be of the highest level of hypocrisy, f****** jerks on livenirvana only deleted mine. Probably because I was new there, AARRGGHH!).

Those lyrics were Kurt Cobain's, not mine. I just copy and pasted them on my post. Maybe I should've censored half of it.

I'm also surprised that actual post gets completely removed. On gamefaqs the persons post would still be there, but the actual words are replaced with "This post has been moderated by the adminstrator or a moderater".

Well, no matter who typed it.. I could type "PENIS!", and it's just as naughty if I type it or if I cut-and-paste it from a Nick Currie song...

But yeah, some people just like to pick on newbies..

Well, in this case, I'm not a newbie. But it's amazing how some people get away with something and then I do it and don't. I guess they don't mess with repeat offenders.
:P ::) :D

And the only reason for saying it was "Kurt Cobain wrote it" was because your post said something about it being my song(which it isn't).

Just an update, nothing more, nothing less. :)

Oh, okay.. well, I knew you didn't write it. I called it "your song", cause you posted it.. my bad.

Yeah, some people do get away with murder.. it's really when you're doing it all the time that you get away with it.. but only really cause they can't keep up with you.

I just said that on the last page ^^^^^^^^^.

yeah, I read that, that's what I meant to say, I agreed with you, so guess I shoulda replied with a quote...just getting my feathers, here!

Whatever- Godsmack.  ;D

Is There Something I Should Know?

Is There Something I Should Know?


Duran Duran

I think I've decided:

No Surprises- Radiohead

A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

No More Laughs and no surprises,
no more laughs and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises, please...

Silent silence.

This is my final fate,
my final bellyache,

No More Laughs and no surprises,
no more laughs and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises, please...

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

Oh, okay.. well, I knew you didn't write it. I called it "your song", cause you posted it.. my bad.

Yeah, some people do get away with murder.. it's really when you're doing it all the time that you get away with it.. but only really cause they can't keep up with you.


Sorry, it just made it sound like I was stealing the song is all. ;)

Beeswax:

(Verse 1)
I was seeking out for a funnel
not only magnets but I can pry bar it shut
glueing my manhood to a manhole
like Pepelepew scent, hey, hey had a lightweight clutch

(Chorus)
I got my titilate spayed(x3)
I got my titilate

(Verse 2)
Stupid(Kitty) a$$button
tweaking and flexing as the wind blows just right
tacky and thumbs on polyester
highwater jumpsuits and a raped ape
Woody had pix-n-pax

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
I don't know why
I have a joke to silly say
don't trust the foams
I gotta hey, hey, have a nice f****** day!

(Chorus)

(Verse 4)
Vinegar and water's created monthly
Fiberglass insulated disguised as cotton candy
spawning down stream el rancho ovulate
feeding a cow hamburger and raw
Peter has brought me tiki idol
Billy's sneer reminds me of someone
home sick a bay aboard the love boat
Tony Tenile Sony Bono Charo had a nice set of lungs

(Chorus)
I got my titilate spayed
I got liberty
I got my titilate spayed(x2)

(Verse 5)
Hard....
I gotta be around p****
Don't let me fall
I gotta hey, hey, well you can't live!

(Chorus)
I got my titilate spayed(x6)
I got my titilate
