Song Lyrics.....

[none]

I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this




Two in a row, everybody knows
At the green light you rev it on the red line
Been waitin all week to get my wheels on the street
Get my hands on the wheel, slide down in the seat

Shes wearin new colors and runnin pretty good
I got four hundred horses tucked under the hood
But theres no need to panic, its under control
Were aerodynamic and ready to roll

(The above one is one of my dad's favorites)

Paul

Second ones Rev on the red line by Foreigner

Now, for the bonus points and a date with Joe Sherwood, who wrote "I'm a believer?"

Don't want a date with Joe.
But I believe it was Neil...
Diamond...

 

[Butch]

Think of all the hate there is in Red China!Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama!Ah, you may leave here, for four days in space,but when your return, it`s the same old place,

 

["Dr. Dirt"]

Think of all the hate there is in Red China!Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama!Ah, you may leave here, for four days in space,but when your return, it`s the same old place,

Way too easy:
Barry McGuire, Eve of Destruction

 

[The Swegian]

Don't want a date with Joe.
But I believe it was Neil...
Diamond...

You are correct, sir!

Karl, it sounds like you're a bit of a Pink Floyd fan. Do you know how they took their name? (I do and when I found out, I woulda never guessed that).

 

["Dr. Dirt"]

Don't want a date with Joe.

Diamond...

Sorry to say you now are the proud winner of the evening in paradise!

And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

This is "I Can't Stand Losing You" by The Police

 

[d'kid]

I had a girl friend named Sue and we just broke up about a week before that song came out. Every time Taxi plays I think of Sue.

Harry, I think we all had Our Sue...

'And she said we must get together...
but I knew it'd never be arranged.
and she hangs me twenty dollars for a two fifty fare
and said; Harry, keep the change.

Well, another man might have been angry,
another man might have been hurt....
but, another man never would have let her go...
I stashed the bill in my shirt'

Even today, 35 years later, I still think of her at the oddest times.

Let's get tougher:

Here comes the helicopter
Second time today.
Everybody scatters
and hopes it goes away.
How many kids they've murdered,
only God can say . . .

I'll be impressed when you get this one-especially if you haven't used the Net to find it. I even made it easy by starting with the first verse.

 

[Butch]

Gees Bobby: not so quick. heres another

I found the bottom half
Behind the second door
Which took me to Africa I presume
This really far out cat was screaming half crazy
`Bomp boom a loo bom a long bam boo`
I said hey man cut that jive
And tell me where the chick went
But he looked at me as pleased as could be
And said a lotta words but I wonder what he meant

 

[NHRAMike]

And so I quit the police department
and got myself a steady job.
And though she tried her best to help me,
she could steal but she could not rob.


I could go on for days as music feeds my soul but I'm rather particular about my choices.

She Came In Thru the Bathroom Window
By the Beatles,
Off of Abbey Road


How 'bout this gem...

Sheepdog, standing in the rain
Bullfrog, doin' it again
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile

Childlike, no one understands
Jackknife, in your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears

You can talk to me (X3)
If you're lonely, you can talk to me

I'll throw some obscure stuff out here later

If I had a Rocket Launcher
By Bruce Cockburn

 

[d'kid]

You are correct, sir!

Karl, it sounds like you're a bit of a Pink Floyd fan. Do you know how they took their name? (I do and when I found out, I woulda never guessed that).

Somewhere in the back of my burnt brain cells the information is hiding at the moment... right now I'm lost 'On the Dark Side of Oz'... which isn't quite the fit everyone claimed, almost a time and a half through the album...

[NHRAMike]

Speaking of Bruce Cockburn, a co-worker once pointed a barfeed tube toward me which looked like a rocket launcher. As I started singing (for lack of a better word) the song to him, he looked amazed that I knew the song, and then proceeded to tell me about when he was still living in Vancouver, B.C. and happened to be on the same ferry with Bruce. Said that he and his wife approached him and told him that they were both fans, and that he talked with the two of them for about 10 minutes and was such a nice guy.

Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

Jesus Built My Hotrod

By Ministry

 

[NHRAMike]

Keeping with the hot rod theme, try this one out for size:

Let me tell you the tale of a hot rod race,
That happened out in a secluded place
Where no one lives
'cept cows and a few raccoons

I was drivin' around in my shoebox car,
My baby and me underneath the stars,
My engine was knockin
But i knew it'd clear real soon.

I was cruisin' along 'bout 95,
I looked in my mirror and man alive
Some guy was gaining on me
As his engine roared.

So i gave that holly carb some gas,
My baby cried out don't let him pass,
I guess it's just that b*tch got bored,
I had to race my f*cked up ford.

I made the turn at 108,
And he was up on my back gate,
And I knew he had something bad,
Underneath that hood.

So I pushed it up to 110,
That flathead motor was about to give in,
I crossed my fingers and prayed to the lord,
Don't let me down you f*cked up ford.

It's my f*cked up ford!
It's my f*cked up ford!

When cherry tops began to spin,
I knew this race was about to end,
It's a cop by god
My engine can't give no more.

He threw me in jail, warrant ignored
My car blew up as the oil poured,
I guess it's just that b*tch got bored,
I had to race my f*cked up ford.

It's my f*cked up ford! whoooo!
It's my f*cked up ford!

 

[vegasnitro]

It's my f*cked up ford!

The REV!!!!

 

[G'ginna]

I'm lookin' for another kind of love
oh lordy how I need it
the kind that likes to leap without a shove
honey, you best believe it
now I ain't one for sayin' long goodbyes
I hope all is forgiven​

*took out the give-away

 

[vegasnitro]

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss
