LOL!!!!
:rofl::rofl:Quote:
If I'm not in prison by morning
I'm gonna have you in my dream
I wish you'd give into me baby
Cause you know that I'm obsessed with you
you should see my Eagles tattoo
And Troub, I love yours too, especially
These are freaking hilarious!Quote:
I got you the pastry,
I even brought back money,
You just tut at me and say
"I wanted shortcrust, Sonny!
It's the wrong one."
Just a little Border concert fantasy! To the tune of Get Over It. It's perhaps a tad risqué, but nothing you can't handle ;)
They turn down the lights and what do I see?
A bright little button with a big "3E"
I got my pretty little dress and a handmade sign
And a pocket full of roses and a big glass of wine
The boys are lookin' fine in their well-fitting jeans
I'm not normally a hussy, but you know what that means
I'm all over it, all over it
All this screamin' and swoonin' and workin' it
I'm all over it, all over it
Well I wasn't expectin' it to happen so fast
But his eyes met mine and I fell flat on my arse
I recovered in time for the acoustic set
When we all got emotional and I got wet
from the drink I spilt, out of surprise and glee
When ol' Don Henley pointed his drumstick at me
All this screamin' and swoonin' and workin' it
I'm all over it, all over it
It's like bathing in chocolate every time I hear you sing
You're drivin' me crazy with that husky thing
I ain't no puppet cos there ain't no strings
Well I have a few friends who'd be glad to join
if you have any spare buttons (hell, just use coins)
They're not fussy, they'll take what they get
It may be Desperado, but it ain't over yet.
It's entirely honourable, we want you to believe
Come and have some fun, we just won't let you leave!
Joe, they want to play with your big shiny git
They're all over it, all over it
Glenn, I gotta warn you, you're gonna have to be split
They're all over it, all over it
Timothy, trust me, your long hair's a hit
They're all over it, all over it
We could stand up, but they'd rather we sit,
We'll lighten 'em up a bit, up a bit!
LOL I love this Lou!!! Excellent job!!
Hehehe. Funny, Lou! After reading this fantasy, I think after the Borderers got through with them, they wouldn't be able to walk!
:rofl::yay::yay::yay::bow: Lou, you're great at this! I'm enjoying all of these!
Sorry this is so long but I figured I'd better finish my version of Hotel California, lest everyone think I'm a dangerous lunatic!
Reach the outskirts of LA
Head for Rodeo Drive
Looking at all the pretty people
Thankful to be alive
Spot a guy wearing blue jeans
About a block up the street
Looks a lot like Timothy B.
And I’m thinking this is kinda neat
Pick up speed, run a red light
As he ducks in a store
Slow down, pull up to the curb
Right outside the door
So much anticipation
As I wait for him to show
Cop pulls up, checks my plates
And tells me I have to go.
Traffic cops in LA, California
Spoil all my fun when I on the run
Making me move in LA, California
From my curb-side spot
Man, I’m getting hot.
Drive up to the corner
Make a U-turn there
Creeping back toward the store front
When again I spot the hair
Can’t contain my excitement
He turns, I scream “OH NO!”
Realizing it ain’t Timothy B.
But that danged ol’ Fabio!
Wake from a dream of LA, California
Ball & chain still there in his easy chair
Wanna be back in LA, California
So I close my eyes, breath a heavy sigh
Drift back into dreamland
Find myself in the ’hood
Eagles there on a make-shift stage
Getting down to “Life’s Been Good”
Song ends to ovations
When I can’t believe my eyes,
Timmy B. steps up to the mike
Singing “Love Will Keep Us Alive”
Glad I dreamed of LA, California
What a lovely place, dreamed of Tim’s sweet face
Plenty of dreams of LA, California
While their on vaca….think I’m gonna stay!
I'm just having fun like everyone else....and this a GREAT thread. I love the imagination of everybody AND their originality. I'm beginning to think we could be on to something here, like a parody album (ala Weird Al Yankovick for those who are old enough to remember him).
Your lyrics are awesome, Cynd. The bit that anne-o-gg quoted had me rolling, too :rofl:
Thanks. Glad you found them entertaining. Now for the real laugh --
I got rid of my ball & chain years ago, been flying solo for ages and love it. Though I admit that I'd give up all the freedom in the world for a shot at you-know-who if I had the opportunity. :wink:
Woodstock!!!!!!
This one is about that multiple show syndrome!
[To the tune of Tequila Sunrise]
It's another great Eagles concert
Tickets cost so much to buy
But I'm in line
And hey, it's just my ninety-ninth
Workin' on my hundredth the next night
The shows fly by
Every night when the sun goes down
It's another concert, one more town
And I am rockin' out
Well, yes, I'm spending lots of money
And I couldn't keep my former job
Too much "time off"
But oh, it's such a lovely feeling
When they come out and sing "How Long"
And play their songs
Taking on a massive card debt
Lost gas and heat and electricity
Home's my Chevy
But it's another great Eagles concert
Who cares if setlists look the same
Still glad I came
Thougt of another one......to the tune of "How Long"
I’ve been marking time in this desert city
Gotta make a break
Find someplace the band is gonna play
Buy a ticket, drive all night
To get to where I’m going
In the western half of the good ol’ USA
How long, how long
Will they make me wait
How long, how long
For their next concert date?
We know they’re tired, been on the road
Far across the pond
Pleasing fans from Lisbon to Cologne
But the 60 days they were over there
Across the salty brine
Are the longest 60 days I’ve ever known.
How long, how long
Are they gonna tease
How long, how long
We’re down on bended knees
Howwwww long, howwwwww long
Even suits are fine with me!
Howwwww long, howwwwww long
Come on, Eagles, hit the stage
You’re fans are waiting, every age
But we’d rather you see you in your tight blue jeans.
Soda, once again magnifico! :applause::applause::applause::applause:
Cynd, you're on a roll! You seem to have a theme going on! 'Getting away from the town you live in to hit the road and every Eagles concert possible!'
In the style of Desperado...
Avocado
Avocado, what is this taste I am missing?
I need a little convincing to try you someday
Oh, you're a weird one
With skin so green and so bumpy
It's hard and it's lumpy, so I still will delay.
Do you taste like you look, if so
I'll pass you for a mango
You know you can't go wrong with a taste so nice and sweet
But I saw you at the grocery and you seemed to call out to me
So I bought you so as not to admit defeat
Avocado, are you a fruit or a veggee
I'm feeling so edgy but try as I may
I'm going to do it
I'm going to slice you and mash you
I'm going to make some guacamole
(Make some guacamole!)
I'm going to make some guacamole
For Superbowl Day
PM, I've been doing just that since LROOE started. Saw them in Atlanta, DC, Philly, Dallas, Boston, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Worcester. Planned a LOT of family visits to coincide with the shows in Massachusetts and Ohio. Atlanta/DC/Philly/Dallas were courtesy of a friend who lives in LA, who kicked it all off with an invite to Stagecoach '08! As you may surmise, I'm willing to 'hit the road' to see the Eagles at every opportunity.
LOL, Cathy! Love Avocado. Too funny!
The (Make some guacamole!) part completely tickled me. I can hear it!
Every single one of these has either made me laugh or feel sentimental. I'm dying over avacado because I love them! Too funny!
Everyone here is so creative it's craking me up. Soda, don't be surprised if Don contacts you to have this thread removed immediately! :hilarious:
http://bestsmileys.com/lol/19.gif Good grief - that's the funniest thing - I'm still laughing...so sad that I was singing it!!!
LMAO!!!!!! I can hear them siniging this part.. all gathered around the mic.. those intense looks on their faces.. LOL this song KILLS me!!
Cynd *G* you're talent scares me LOL , you should make an album
this is sheer poetry!! LOL

To the tune of Heartache Tonight
No Eagles gonna be on stage
It's an unpleasant sight
Everyone's gonna be so sad
There's nothing we can do
It's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night I know
It's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night I know, Lord I know
We can beg, and plead, till we lose our voices, We can break out in a riot, but either way it's gonna be a Miserable Night, Miserable Night without them on Stage, WHOOO HOO!
Okay ladies!!!! To good to just read once and toss in the corner.
NEW CONTEST!
Set a date for final submissions for the "contest".
Vote on the BEST one both technically as in Poetry and How well hit fits into the song the way it was originally sang.
Then pick the one with the most significant CONTENT.
The winner would be the one with the most in total score. (award "x" number of points for the one getting the most votes, "y" points for the next most number. Do that for both contests and add the two together to get the one that is the clear winner.
Then comes the fun part! RECORD IT!!!!!!!!!!
No way!
I was reading the posts Mike and Ticky put up in the "Weather" thread and threw out a suggestion to Mike, but since I don't see that he's put anything up -- and my imagination took off one more time.
To honor Ticky's bumper crops and Mike's agony --
To the tune of Desperado:
Roto-tiller, you turn the soil so defty
But your jarring has left me with muscles that ache
You’ve done a fine and now my garden is ready
The rain has been steady
Better go fetch the rake
Zuccini, carrots, peppers, peas…
It’s past the 4th, corn’s above my knees
The Mason jars are waiting on the shelf
I yank the weeds, I hoe the rows
And wonder if my mother knows
I wish she’d come and pull these weeds herself.
Roto-tiller, I hope that somehow you know
The spuds and tomatoes are causing me work
You’re on vacation while I’m out busting my chops
To harvest all of the crops (including barley and hops)
I think I’ll call the pawn shops
And try to sell you, you jerk!
How in the heck do you guys come up with these?!?!?!? LOVE LOVE LOVE them!!! Every time I pull this thread up I laugh so hard I start crying! :rofl:
OMG - I literally have tears streaming down my face from laughter after reading these. You are all great - keep it up!
http://www.vpsingles.com/pics/garden.gif Cynd! Excellent!!! So funny....I was l'ing'ol at this and my daughter mumbled under her breath, "mom and her forum"...hahaha!
Dreamer - YES...tears!! i can't stop singing about the avacado being green and bumpy!!http://www.smileyhut.com/laughing/rofl.gif
I see the same recurring themes here -- the Eagles (obviously) and food. You can thank Mike for the "roto-tiller" idea, got it from a post he put up yesterday. Seems everyone is having lots of fun with this thread.
...and following the food theme, here's a little ditty to the tune of "Heartache Tonight"
Somebody wants a chimichanga
Refried beans and rice
Side order of tortillas too
Sounding kind of nice
Margarita on the frozen side
Dash of salt and lime
Good eaten in the old southwest
Then siesta time.
There’s gonna be a heartburn tonight
A heartburn tonight, I know
There’s gonna be a heartburn tonight
A heartburn tonight, I know
You can chug-a-lug a beer
Drink lemonade on ice
But if you eat the chilis, man,
You’ll think about it twice
There’s gonna be a heartburn tonight
A heartburn tonight, I know
And the hits just keep on coming --
("The Long Run")
I’ve got a two-story shack with a garage ‘round the back
And fifteen maples towering high
All my neighbors tell me it’s a pretty nice setting,
They wave at me as they drive by.
In summer time it’s a cool place to be
But here comes the fall, time to clean out the eaves
Wish I had a gardener to do the chore
On the wrong rung (on the wrong rung)
My kids refuse to do it, say the job’s a bore
On the wrong run (on the wrong rung)
I’ve offered to pay them twenty dollars an hour
They check out the ladder and all begin to cower
At the wrong rung
Oooh, I want to tell you ‘bout the wrong rung.
The summer fades into autumn as the leaves sing their anthem
“Rake us into several piles”
I go around to the shed, the whole time shaking my head
Wish the leaves would blow for miles
I prop up the ladder, climb on up to the eaves
Talk to myself while I clean out the leaves
Who is gonna help with my decent
Down the wrong rung (down the wrong rung)
Fell near the bottom now my leg is all bent
From the wrong rung (from the wrong rung)
Doc says its broken, should be fine in a year
Guess I’ll go watch the Eagles, drink a six-pack of beer
From the wrong rung, I just want to say
I love the wrong rung
