So this game is simple. You write down any lyrics that come into your mind, and whoever goes next has to use the last word in the lyrics somewhere in the lyrics that he chooses.

It goes without saying that you can't just repeat the previous song.

E.g: "There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold, and she's buying a stairway to heaven."

It could be followed then by: "I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door."

So, first one. "In our garage beside our house, there is a luxury sedan, and for it's next monthly instalment, it's gonna go out with a bang."

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down.

Down by the bay
Where the watermelons grow
Back to my home
I dare not go
For if I do
My mother would say
Did you ever see a cat, flyin' on a bat?
Down by the bay.

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

[Knock knock knock] on my hotel door
I don't even know if she knows what for
She was crying on my shoulder
I already told ya
Trust and respect is what we do this for
I never intended to be next
But you didn't need to take him to bed that's
all
And I never saw him as a threat
Until you disappeared with him to have sex of
course

That was actually hard. And kudos for using that song from X-Men: Days of Future Past.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mr. Ed.
Go right to the source and ask the horse
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse.
He's always on a steady course.
Talk to Mr. Ed.

Well, this was all that came to mind. Childish, I know, but it works :]

Oh come on, don't disrespect Jim Croce like that, he's done greater work than that...

Anyhoo. Ed was tough buuuuuut.... Oh lord this song.


One day while talking to special Ed
He grabbed a brick and he swung at my head
And as he laughed at me thats when I knew
That special Ed just made me special too
Now I laugh as I count bugs
I give strangers great big hugs
Next to me Ed is fine
Yeah he's a fucking Einstein

Coming back, coming back
To a place where... I never knew
Pushing knobs pushing faders but I
Don't know what they do
This reflection in my mirror
Reminds me of you
When I tilt it towards the sunlight
You fall out of view

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

Yeah, some folks inherit
Star-spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask 'em
"How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer, "More, more, more" yoh!
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, one

You can’t steal my thunder
You don’t have my lover’s touch

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

Legacy. What is a legacy?
It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see
I wrote some notes at the beginning of a song someone will sing for me
America, you great unfinished symphony, you sent for me
You let me make a difference
A place where even orphan immigrants
Can leave their fingerprints and rise up

You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?
Oh, no, not I, I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love, I know I'm still alive
I've got my life to live, and I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive


Anybody notice the irony between this song and my last one? ;)

I survive on hotel shampoos
I'll be runnin' out soon
You've gone away again
Gone to collect some more
Your hands pressed hard into me
I thought this summer you'd be gone away again
Ooh, he's gone away again

Wow, making me use the same word?

You pick me up and take me home again

You drape your wrists over the steering wheel
Pulses can drive from here
We might be hollow, but we're brave

No matter black, white or beige

Winter's nigh and summer's o'er
Hear that high, lonesome sound
Of my husband coming for
To bring me home to Hadestown

Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground

Down there, it's a bunch of stiffs
Brother, I'll be bored to death
Gonna have to import some stuff
Just to entertain myself
Give me morphine in a tin
Give me a crate of the fruit of the vine
Takes a lot of medicine
To make it through the wintertime

Way down Hadestown
Way down under the ground

Toss and turn, a few mistakes but
You slipped in and showed me how
Never let me hit the ground
All the love was hesitated
But ever since you came around
I feel more than safe and sound

You wanna know what I'm thinkin'
Ever since you came I'm livin'
On top of the world, I can't deny
Every one of my fears has vanished
I don't know how you managed
To wake me up and come alive

What is this feeling of power and drive
I've never known? I feel alive!
Where does this feeling of power derive
Making me know why I'm alive?

Like the night, it's a secret
Sinister dark and unknown
I do not know what I seek
Yet I'll seek it alone!

I have a thirst that I cannot deprive
Never have I felt so alive!
There is no battle I couldn't survive
Feeling like this -- Feeling alive!

Like the moon, an enigma
Lost and alone in the night
Damned by some heavenly stigma
But blazing with light!

It's the feeling of being alive!
Filled with evil, but truly alive!
It's the truth that cannot be denied!
It's the feeling of being Edward Hyde...

I'm normal outside
He's evil inside
I'm Dr Jekyll and
He's Mr Hyde
I want what's right
He walks in the night
Searching for sin in his
Decadent life

My charms will beguile you
And my arms will defile you

Me I'm on the side of the angels
But the devil's my best friend
Sin is a way of life
Saints are for suckers
Welcome to the underworld
I start where nightmares end
Two for the price of one
Two for the price of, one?

I'm normal outside
He's evil inside
I'm Dr Jekyll and
He's Mr Hyde
I try to be true
He tries to be cruel
I'll hold you gently but
He'll smother you

I am glad someone posted something with the word brave because I literally spent at least 4 months looking for a song with the word brave that I actually knew and liked with no success.

Don't you call me pudgy, portly or stout
Just now tell me once again who's fat

When I walk out to get my mail
It measures on the Richter scale
Down at the beach I'm a lucky man
I'm the only one who gets a tan
If I have one more pie a la mode
I'm gonna need my own zip code

When you're only having seconds
I'm a' having twenty-thirds
When I go to get my shoes shined
I gotta take their word

Because I'm fat, I'm fat, sha mone
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I'm fat, I'm fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I'm fat, I'm fat, you know it you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
And my shadow weighs a' forty-two pounds
Lemme tell you once again who's fat

I got a laptop in my back pocket
My pen'll go off when I half-cock it
Got a fat knot from that rap profit
Made a livin' and a killin' off it
Ever since Bill Clinton was still in office
With Monica Lewinsky feelin' on his nutsack

But as rude and as indecent as all hell
Syllables, skill-a-holic (Kill 'em all with)

Women, what is it about them?
Can't live with them or without them

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be (who I was meant to be)
And if you give a damn (and if you give a damn then)
Take me baby, or leave me
Take me baby, take me or la la la la la leave me

Shatter every window till it's all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
Till there's nothing left standing,
Nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away, blown away

She heard those sirens screaming out
Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch
She locked herself in the cellar
Listened to the screaming of the wind
Some people called it taking shelter
She called it sweet revenge

The sword's made of diamonds, so come at me, bro, huh!
Training in your room under the torchlight
Hone that form to get you ready for the big fight
Every single day and the whole night
Creeper's out prowlin', hoo, alright
Look at me, look at you
Take my revenge (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPJUBQd-PNM), that's what I'm gonna do

It's a bit much for Clapham

It's been out 8 years and now, with Minecraft's resurgence in popularity, has finally attained mainstream meme status. The song's been sitting at #1 on Genius (https://genius.com) by a very wide margin recently.

The fake Genius video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0E0rarldXK0) creator Jordan Maron made in response is absolutely worth a watch.)

And press your lips to mine
And dream that love will last

As far as I can see this is heaven
And speaking just for me, it's ours to share
Perhaps the glow of love will grow with every passing day
Or we may never meet again
But then, it's not for me to say

I wrote my way out of hell
I wrote my way to revolution
I was louder than the crack in the bell
I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell
I wrote about The Constitution and defended it well
And in the face of ignorance and resistance
I wrote financial systems into existence
And when my prayers to God were met with indifference
I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance

In the eye of a hurricane
There is quiet
For just a moment
A yellow sky

I was twelve when my mother died
She was holding me
We were sick and she was holding me
I couldn't seem to die

Hello Motherfucker
My lover
You saw it coming

Set aside the scruples in a stratagem of strain
A smallpox-laden blanket, invisible with stains
Inoculated bastards, bloody pecked pain
Distemper has a hold, distemper has a hold
We took a second sip from a cup we made of bones
The first it was a ruse, a trick so aptly thrown
The truth is that our youth was a carpet laid with stones

I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium (x3)

Stone hard, machine gun
Fired at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass


Edit: I only included "stone" rather than "stones," fortunately this song also has "stones" so I'm editing the post to also include that part

Fly me up on a silver wing
Past the black where the sirens sing
Warm me up in a nova's glow
And drop me down to the dream below

'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass
Hardly anything there for you to see
For you to see

Bring me home in a blinding dream
Through the secrets that I have seen
Wash the sorrow from off my skin
Show me how to be whole again

The men up on the news, they try to tell us all that we will lose
But it's so easy in this blue, where everything is good

And I'll never go home again (place the call, feel it start)
Favorite friend (and nothing's wrong when nothing's true)
I live in a hologram with you
Where all the things that we do for fun (and I'll breathe, and it goes)
Play along (make-believe it's hyper real)

My name is Regina George
And I am a massive deal
Fear me, love me
Stand and stare at me
And these, these are real

I've got money and looks
I am, like, drunk with power
This whole school
Humps my leg like a chihuahua

This was a bit difficult. Found this interesting song with 579 views on YouTube.

O weary me
I'm broke as a man can be
My bills are all due, I got holes in my shoe
Bill collectors, they won't let me sleep

If I could teach my chihuahua to sing
I could make cash registers ring
What a sight to behold her, she could sit on my shoulder
And whimper in harmony

Harmony and me
We're pretty good company
Looking for an island
In our boat upon the sea
Harmony, gee I really love you
And I want to love you forever
And dream of the never, never, never leaving harmony

Hello, baby hello
Open up your heart and let your feelings flow
You're not unlucky knowing me
Keeping the speed real slow
In any case I set my own pace
By stealing the show, say hello, hello

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby, how are you?
I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Just let me in your arms
Just let me in your arms

Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim, stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes
Loose change, bank notes, weary-eyed, dry throat
Call girl, no phone

And they say she's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream, been this way since 18
But lately her face seems slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries, they scream
The worst things in life come free to us

'Cause we're just under the upperhand
And go mad for a couple grams
But she don't want to go outside tonight

And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Sells love to another man
It's too cold outside for angels to fly

Hovering above
Just a flock of birds
That's how you think of love

And I always
Look up to the sky
Pray before the dawn

Sometimes they arrive
Sometimes they are gone
They fly on

A flock of birds
Hovering above
Into smoke I'm turned
And rise following them up

I'll see the veins of my city like they do in space
But my head's fillin' up fast with the wicked games, up in flames
How can I fuck with the fun again when I'm known?
And my boys trip me up with their heads again, loving them
Everything's cool when we're all in line for the throne
But I know it's not forever (Yeah)

Baby, be the class clown, I'll be the beauty queen in tears
It's a new art form showing people how little we care (Yeah)
We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear
Let's go down to the tennis court and talk it up like "yeah" (Yeah)

It looked all right in the pictures (Yeah)
Getting caught's half of the trip though, isn't it? (Yeah)

On end of the rainbow
With a fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in

Tired of TV

And I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see no one in sight

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

I've been lately thinking
About my life's time
All the things I've done
And how it's been
And I can't help believing
In my own mind
I know I'm gonna hate to see it end

I've seen a lot of sunshine
Slept out in the rain
Spent a night or two all on my own
I've known my lady's pleasures
Had myself some friends
And spent a time or two in my own home

And I have to say it now
It's been a good life all in all
It's really fine
To have a chance to hang around
And lie there by the fire
And watch the evening tire
While all my friends and my old lady
Sit and pass the pipe around

And talk of poems and prayers and promises
And things that we believe in
How sweet it is to love someone
How right it is to care
How long it's been since yesterday
And what about tomorrow
And what about our dreams
And all the memories we share...

But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through

(And I need to go on and on, and on, and on)

We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting 'til the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers

Oh, sweet thing
Zion doesn't love you
And Babylon don't love you
But you love everything
Oh, you saint
America don't love you
So I could never love you
In spite of everything

In the dark of this place
There's the glow of your face
There's the dust on the screen
Of this broken machine
And I can't help but feel
That I've made some mistake
But I let it go
Ya Hey, Ya Hey, Ya Hey

Through the fire and through the flames
You won't even say your name
Through the fire and through the flames
You won't even say your name
Only "I am that I am"
But who could ever live that way?
Ut Deo, Ya Hey
Ut Deo, Deo

Oh, the motherland don't love you
The fatherland don't love you
So why love anything?
Oh, good God

The zealous hearts don't love you

Far over the Misty Mountains cold,
To dungeons deep and caverns old,
We must away, ere break of day,
To seek our pale enchanted gold.

The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
While hammers fell like ringing bells,
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
In hollow halls beneath the fells.

For ancient king and elvish lord
There many a gleaming golden hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught,
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.

On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, on twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun.

Far over the Misty Mountains cold,
To dungeons deep and caverns old,
We must away, ere break of day,
To claim our long-forgotten gold.

Goblets they carved there for themselves,
And harps of gold, where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves.

The pines were roaring on the heights,
The wind was moaning in the night,
The fire was red, it flaming spread,
The trees like torches blazed with light.

The bells were ringing in the dale,
And men looked up with faces pale.
The dragon's ire, more fierce than fire,
Laid low their towers and houses frail.

The mountain smoked beneath the moon.
The dwarves they heard, the tramp of doom.
They fled the hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.

Far over the Misty Mountains grim,
To dungeons deep and caverns dim,
We must away, ere break of day,
To win our harps and gold from him!

(Surprisingly hard to find a song I know and like with "him" in it; most songs are love songs and most love songs are written in second person. Considered continuing the Tolkien but was difficult. Was going to do "The Fall of Gil-galad" but I can't consider it a song because I personally don't listen to any version set to actual music. Also considered "The Man in the Moon Stayed Up Too Late" but the abridged version set to music from the movies doesn't have "him" in it either.)

I've certainly been posting significant amounts of pop as a genre, but a lot of it isn't actually the type to get large radio play/hit the charts. :D In terms of recognizable popular music, looking back I'd say you've had a significant share too already. :P

Post by: Imaginative Kane on September 22, 2019, 03:42:32 AM
Eh what the heck I will put up a song I don't like.  I have been posting songs that I like whether or not they are often heard on the radio and to me it seems like the majority of the songs taulover has been posting for a while have been daily radio songs although I don't listen to what is specifically today's hit music (I think that is what pop means).  I also avoid listening to any station that plays music from after the 80s although it is impossible for me to completely avoid them since I don't drive and the stations that I would listen to here have terrible service because they are more concentrated in other places.



People do you hear me, just give me the sign
It aint much I'm asking, if you want the truth
Here's to the future for the dreams of youth

Post by: taulover on September 22, 2019, 05:41:00 AM
Yeah, I've noticed that you tend to like it whenever I post older mainstream/popular music. :P Which I tend to prefer not to do since those are the most recognizable ones for everyone but I still did it a few times (some Queen and Backstreet Boys for instance).

I'm curious, what makes you eschew newer music? (I personally hold that there is nothing inherently better or worse with older music, though of course it's going to be easier to find good old music because of what has stood the test of time and you have an established canon of what's good already.)

By "pop" I mean the loosely defined genre of music, different from rock and hip-hop, that tends to be on the charts often. Stealing from Wikipedia, it tends to have shorter length, simpler structure such as verse-chorus, etc. Not all pop music is hit radio music and not all hit radio music is pop music.

My preference tends to be more toward experimental, indie/alternative, and art pop. For instance, my latest post was from a PC Music & SOPHIE-produced album and features some interesting sounds. I have also posted several Carly Rae Jepsen pieces, who (apart from Call Me Maybe) could practically be considered an indie artist for how little commercial attention she gets despite critical acclaim. When I see the opportunity I also have been posting more obscure tracks from popular pop albums. (And of course there's that one LOTR song I posted which Robin responded to with the classic Misty Mountains song, but I recognize that that's an exception there.) In general I try to showcase songs that I feel get slept on, though it's not always easy and sometimes I'm lazy or feel like posting something more mainstream. :D

Anyway, for a bit of a change:


Nothing new, nothing new, nothing new, nothing new
Little less, little less, little less, little less
Nothing new, nothing new, nothing new, nothing new
Little less, little less, little less, little less

Walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away

Leave us standing upon the height
What was before we see once more
Is our kingdom a distant light

Fiery mountain beneath the moon
The words unspoken, we'll be there soon
For home a song that echoes on
And all who find us will know the tune

Some folk we never forget
Some kind we never forgive
Haven't seen the back of us yet
We'll fight as long as we live

All eyes on the hidden door
To the Lonely Mountain borne
We'll ride in the gathering storm
Until we get our long forgotten gold

Rose tints my world keeps me safe from my trouble and pain.

Pain without love
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care


Leave, don't leave me
Walk around and choose your own ground


Long you live and high you fly
Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
All you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be


Run, rabbit, run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one


For long you'll live, and high you'll fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

(Hadestown was AMAZING!!! Did you ever listen to the off-broadway cast? I kind of miss the pre-Broadway versions of the Epics)
(unfortunately I have not)

Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people (ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people (ah, look at all the lonely people)
Where do they all belong?

(They’re all over YouTube! I’ll post Epic III in the What are you listening to thread)

I don’t belong to you
The moon is the only friend I have outside
One more drink, and I’ll be healed
I told you the words, and I knew it was a lie

You know my hips don't lie
And I'm starting to feel it's right
All the attraction, the tension
Don't you see, baby, this is perfection?

They told me all of my cages were mental
So I got wasted like all my potential
And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad
I have a lot of regrets about that
I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere
Fell behind on my classmates, and I ended up here
Pouring out my heart to a stranger
But I didn't pour the whiskey


I just wanted you to know that this is me trying

Oh brother, I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you 'cause I don' know what to do
Oh brother, I can't believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future, and I wanna talk to you
Oh, I wanna talk to you

You can take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be?
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or a write a song nobody has sung
Or do something that's never been done

What is love?
Title: The Sounds
Post by: Marzipan on March 30, 2022, 04:16:07 AM
And I loved you
Yes, I loved you

I'd have followed anywhere you led

I woke to swear my love
And found you gone instead

And I loved you (how I loved you)

And I left you (how I loved you)
And I had to, both of us knew why (we both knew why)
And yet I won't regret
From now until I die
The night I can't forget
Beneath a moonless sky

Love on the beach and the tide is high
Ooh, ooh
Moon in the water and the open sky
Ooh, ooh

I just wanna stay
Another night, another day
We could wash the world away
We could play like children play

(It really is)

Without you
The ground thaws
The rain falls
The grass grows

Without you
The seeds root
The flowers bloom
The children play
The stars gleam
The poets dream
The eagle flies

Without you
The earth turns
The sun burns
But I die
Title: The Sounds
Post by: taulover on April 04, 2022, 03:55:51 PM
We were crazy to think
Crazy to think that this could work
Remember how I said I'd die for you?
We were stupid to jump
In the ocean separating us
Remember how I'd fly to you?

And I can't talk to you when you're like this
Staring out the window like I'm not your favorite town
I'm New York City
I still do it for you, babe
They all warned us about times like this
They say the road gets hard and you get lost
When you're led by blind faith, blind faith

It was supposed to be all so exciting.
To be teaching of Christ across the sea.
But I allowed my faith to be shaken-
Oh, what's the matter with me?

I've always longed to help the needy.
To do the things I never dared.
This was the time for me to step up.
So then why was I so scared?

A warlord that shoots people in the face.

Welcome to Sadness
The temperature is unbearable until you face it
Thank you for flying with Strange Airlines
I will be your tour guide today
Your emotional baggage can be picked up at Carousel Number 2
Please be careful so that it doesn’t fall onto someone you love
When we’ve reached your final destination, I will leave you to it
You’ll be fine
I’m just gonna show you in, and you can stay as long as you need to get familiar with the feeling
And then when you’re ready, I’ll be outside, and we can go look at the sunrise by euphoria mixed with existential vertigo?
Cool

Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt, and
See if she can handle every family burden
Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
No mistakes, just

Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa, oh, oh
Give it to your sister and never wonder
If the same pressure would've pulled you under
Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
No cracks, no breaks
No mistakes, no pressure

Pressure pushin' down on me
Pressin' down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that brings a building down
Splits a family in two, puts people on streets
Mm-ba-ba-beh, mm-ba-ba-beh
Dee-day-da, ee-day-da
That's okay
That's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watchin' some good friends screamin', "Let me out"
Pray tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets

(I still need to watch Encanto, haha)


When I was a young boy, my father
Took me into the city to see a marching band
He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be
The savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?"

Sometimes, I get the feeling she's watching over me
And other times, I feel like I should go
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets
And when you're gone, we want you all to know

We'll carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
And in my heart, I can't contain it
The anthem won't explain it

A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all
So paint it black and take it back, and let's shout it loud and clear
Defiant to the end, we hear the call

When I was a little lad and so me mother told me,
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe.
That if I did not kiss the girls me lips would grow all moldy.
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe.
* Way haul away, we're bound for better weather.
Away haul away, we'll haul away Joe.
Way haul away, we'll haul away together.
Away haul away, we'll haul away Joe.

---cut to verse 4---

Ya call yourself a "Second Mate", ya cann'e tie a bowline
Away Haul Away, we'll haul away, Joe
You can't even stand up straight when the packet, she's a-rollin'
Away Haul Away, we'll haul away, Joe

A long, long time ago
In a galaxy far away
Naboo was under an attack
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
Could talk the federation in
To maybe cutting them a little slack
But their response, it didn't thrill us
They locked the doors and tried to kill us
We escaped from that gas
Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
We took a bongo from the scene
And we went to Theed to see the Queen
We all wound up on Tatooine
That's where... we found... this boy...

About the boy
On the silverscreen
He melts my foolish heart in every single scene
Although I'm quite aware that here and there are traces of the cad

Creeper, aw man
So we back in the mine, got our pick axe swinging from side to side
Side, side to side
This task a grueling one, hope to find some diamonds tonight, night, night
Diamonds tonight
Heads up, you hear a sound, turn around and look up, total shock fills your body
Oh no it's you again
I could never forget those eyes, eyes, eyes
Eyes, eyes, eyes
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all our stuff again
'Cause baby tonight, you grab your pick, shovel and bolt again
And run, run until it's done, done, until the sun comes up in the morn'
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all our stuff again
Just when you think you're safe, overhear some hissing from right behind
Right, right behind
That's a nice life you have, shame it's gotta end at this time, time, time
Time, time, time, time
Blows up, then your health bar drops, you could use a 1-up, get inside don't be tardy
So now you're stuck in there, half a heart is left but don't die, die, die
Die, die, die, die
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all your stuff again
'Cause baby tonight, you grab your pick, shovel and bolt again
And run, run until it's done, done, until the sun comes up in the morn'
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all your stuff again
Creepers, you're mine
Dig up diamonds, and craft those diamonds and make some armor
Get it baby, go and forge that like you so, MLG pro
The sword's made of diamonds, so come at me bro
Training in your room under the torch light
Hone that form to get you ready for the big fight
Every single day and the whole night,
Creeper's out prowlin' - alright
Look at me, look at you
Take my revenge that's what I'm gonna do
I'm a warrior baby, what else is new
And my blade's gonna tear through you
Bring it
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all our stuff again
Yeah baby tonight, grab your sword, armor and gold, take your revenge
So fight, fight like it's the last, last night of your life, life, show them your bite
'Cause baby tonight, the creeper's trying to steal all our stuff again
'Cause baby tonight, you grab your pick, shovel and bolt again
And run, run until it's done, done, until the sun comes up in the morn'
'Cause baby tonight, the creepers tried to steal all our stuff again
