OK ladies and gentlemen, it is time for the Oh Kee Pa’s favorite game show sensation! Guess the Song Lyric!
I will start, and whoever guesses mine correctly (without cheating!), can put their choice of lyrics up in the same post for the next person! What do we have for them Johnny?
Nothing!
Here goes!
“Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool’s gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he not busy being born
Is busy dying.”
All Right Ma by Bob Dylan, am I right?
Ding ding ding…you’re not going? Okay my turn:
“Jungle face Jake
Jungle face Jake
Said make no mistake about
Jungle face Jake”
HINT: He sells all the good stuff.
OK… dont want to be a jerk, but this game has already stalled out, and Ian’s alphabet game is on its second page! So we will come back to goldenroads if anyone can get it.
But since I started the game, I am making up rules as I go along, and I am starting over!
“Tell me the cost
I can pay
Let me go
Tell me love is not lost
Sell everything
Without love, day to day,
insanity is king”
That’s easy!
Help on the Way, Robert Hunter
An i’ll guess at goldenroad’s
Is it: Jungle Face Jake by goldenroad?
Now you need to put down some lyrics for someone else to guess. This isn’t my job to put up all the lyrics!
Fine, don’t throw a hissy fit
“And she told me all about her car accident
She was overdosed on Valium
And she made an attempt to cross–the–West–side Highway”
You guys obviously know little of music…
Telegram Sam by T-Rex…
Some of you British bastards should have at least known that…Why don’t you all go out and pick up the cheapest T-rex album you can find…I garuntee you it will blow your mind…My heirarcy of listening goes Phish, T-Rex, Zappa, then whatever else happens to be put on…If you have access to a lot of T-rex, Start with Tanx, then complete the trilogy with Electric Warrior and the Slider (off of which came the #1 hit Telegram Sam)…Every single T-rex song is AMAZING! So please give them a listen…I don’t press a lot of music on you guys…but please listen to T-Rex, you can’t be disappointed.
leonard cohen “halleujah”
(also played by jeff buckley)…the better version in my opinion
OK people… time for another hissy fit… Play the game!
I got one if no one will go.
“The breath of the morning i keep forgetting. The smell of the warm summer air. I live in a town where you can’t smell a thing, you watch your feet for cracks in the pavement.
Up above aliens hover making home movies for the folks back home, of all these wierd creatures who lock up their spirits, drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets. They’re all up-tight.”
Radiohead - “Subterranean Homesick Alien”
"I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed 'n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little had changed
I am the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you "
Frank Zappa - I’m The Slime
“Yesterday a morning came,
a smile upon your face.
Caesar’s palace, morning glory,
silly human race.”
Yes “Yours Is No Disgrace”
“A city freeze
Get on your knees
Pray for warmth and green paper.
A city drought
You’re down and out
See your trousers don’t taper.
Saddle up
Kick your feet
Ride the range of a London street
Travel to a local plane
Turn around and come back again.”
bump… any guesses? I was hoping this game could last a little longer.
?
really…no one?
“Sweet Thing”
I love Van Morrison.
“Well, I’m a thinkin’ and thinkin’, till there’s nothin’ I ain’t thunk.
Breathing in the stink, till finally I stunk.
It was at that time, I swear I lost my mind.
I started making plans to kill my own kind.
