Okay, here's an idea yanked from another thread. Take an Eagles song, whatever you like, and add your own lyrics,
example.. here's mine from the other thread..
"Runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load, got a slab of cheese cake on my mind, lookin' for a cup cake that wont make my butt big, it's soo hard to find..."
On A Hot Florida Highway, Warm breeze in my hair, Hot Smell of Bratwursts, rising up through the air.
I wrote this last year in honor of my Pebble Beach trip as a joke. Figured I'd dig it up for this thread!
[to the tune of "I Love to Watch a Woman Dance"]
I Love to Watch That Glenn Frey Golf
I love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
He aims his club and adjusts his hands
His hips and body rotate quickly
His club connects; his shot is tricky
He has the whole crowd in his thrall
We love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
Yeah, we love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
He likes the shots that go where they should
Not the ones that go a million miles away
And a penalty stroke is what you must pay
For the balls that you can’t get to any other way
His eyes look up; wind takes the ball
We love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
Yeah, we love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
Glenn feels his heart beating, and he wonders
“Could I ever make a ‘triple-eagle’?”
But if the ball comes at you, duck as fast as you can
Or else this game could be your final game
So it lands and then rolls towards the hole
So slow it’s almost standing still
Oh no, it’s skirting ‘round the edge
Now it’s heading down the hill
The ball spins so as it picks up speed
Its flight ends when it embeds in a tree
Glenn sobs, “DAMMIT! I don’t understand!”
But I love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
Yeah, I love to watch that Glenn Frey golf
Wonderful lyrics girls. Ticky, yours really made me laugh. So appropriate. Nancy I remember yours, Gosh is it really nearly 18 months since you wrote that. How time flies. EL, love yours as well.
Man, those were good times.
Here's another, much shorter entry:
[to the tune of "Most of Us Are Sad"]
Borderers are sad
No more Eagles shows
We've been jonesing for YouTube
Where'd new photos go?
Tell me, Eagles fans
What will we do now?
Shows have fed our fandom here
What will feed it now?
Weeping members, try to smile
Like you're seeing Don
Borderers are sad it's true
Still, we must go on!
hehe I love that one Soda,
These are all great!
This is a song about a gal who loves her man, but doesn't trust his truck.
I like the way your spark plugs neatly lay
Upon your fender so round.
And I want to ride with you to the drive-in tonight
Keepin' warm with your big, smelly hound.
But you got a diesel eating Chevy
And you swear it won't let you down
But I already have a ride back to town.
That's a riot, PM........ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!
HAhahahahahahahaah Cathy!! too cute!!!
Weird Al, Eat your heart out :hilarious:
To the tune of "What Do I Do With My Heart" --
They aren't gonna sing a word,
They've been on the road too long
Time to turn our CD's on
If we want to hear their song
So turn on those discs and stare at their pix
If you need your spirits to soar.
And look to 0-10 'cuz we know that's when
We'll be back in Eden and screaming for one more encore!
LOL love these, guys! Keep 'em comin'!
LMAO! This just killed me!Quote:

I'm Runnin down the Road
Tryin' to lighten my Load
Got Cheese Cakes on my mind
First one says it's Diet
The Second just says try it
The Third says I'm easy to find
Make it Easy
Let's have it Cheesy
Don't let the twirl of your own scales
In-tim-a-date you
Lighten up if you still can
Your load increases your span
Just find a place and let it loose
And make it cheesy!
Cynd, yours is great, if not a little bittersweet! :ack:
And Mr./Ms. Anonymous, come out of the woodwork - you've got talent!:thumbsup:
Who's the big chicken because that one is great!!!! :hilarious:Quote:

:hilarious: :rofl:
Bring 'em on! You all are great!
ITA, Brooke. I was ROFLMAO reading these. We have some very creative Borderers! :nod:
I feel like this thread should be under "for the sake of the song" :hilarious:
to the tune of boys of summer.... :singer:
nobody on tour
it's just sad
they leaving us so unsure
Empty stage, empty hearts
time passes way too slow
wondering what their doing now
why are they laying low
I can see them there
they're all smiling from the stage
got their black suits on
my eyes are engaged… baby
and I can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the concerts of summer have gone
out on the road today
I saw an eagle flying overhead
a voice inside me said just look ahead
you can always dream ahead
I thought I knew what patience was
what did I know
Concerts need to come around again
so we can see some new shows
I can see them there
they're all smiling from the stage
they're wearing denim jeans
I'm loving it by all means
and I can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the concerts of summer have gone
I never will forget those shows
even if they seem like a dream
each one drove me crazy
all I did was scream
I don’t understand what happened to the time
I want to get it back
and be given a 3E button the size of a dime
I can see them there
they're all smiling from the stage
they're playing nice and long
oh please just one more song
and I can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the concerts of summer have gone
It's all good, but this part is priceless! :hilarious:Quote:

But he ain't got those Henley eyes
And his hair is a thin disguise
Thought by now he'd realize
He's got the hair but not those Henley eyes
(Sorry for the bad grammar, but I couldn't get good grammar to work!)
LOL!!! I am dying here!!!
Guilty........
They’re the only ones who ever sing our songs
We might be lonely now but we won’t be lonely long
Take a look at ‘em babies, tell me what do you see
Joe, Don, Glenn and Timmy all tired as they can be.
We’re feeling down and out, no shows for us in sight
But they’re resting their voices, getting ready for another night.
It’s a new love story, wanna please all their fans
We’ll be the judge and the jury next time we hear our band (and cheer!)
We’re guilty of, guilty of the crime OF LOVING THE EAGLES
Guilty of, guilty of the crime, OF LOVING ‘EM, LOVING ‘EM
I'm lovin' this thread! It's cracking me up. :hilarious:
hehehe Cathy and Cynd LOL those are GREAT!! .. Cathy, who's your friend? *G*
Man, whenever I see a new post in here I get excited. This is a great thread - so funny, cynd!
Great lyrics, everyone!:thumbsup: I love to read in this thread!
:hilarious: Thanks guys.
What's really funny is picturing all of the Borderers, all over the world, seeing these lyrics for the first time and trying to sing the songs out loud!
Well, after reading them Cathy, people may have a lot of trouble getting the REAL lyrics correct <LOL>
You could be right, Mike. Maybe WE'LL have to put on a concert for THEM! Talk about 'good for a laugh'!
:hilarious: oh, hahahahahah!!!!!!! This is some great stuff up in here!!! I only hope DH doesn't get wind of this - we could be in some serious trouble...lol...:hilarious:
To this day I still sing "walkin' round in women's underwear.." and that was 3rd grade!Quote:

Santa Fe to my back
Luggage riding in the bed of my truck
A fully loaded gun rack
Quit my job, left my ball & chain
With a new plan in mind
To undertake a secret mission
Seeking one of a kind.
Fill the tank, check the tires
Grab a soft drink to swill
Point my truck on a westerly route
Drain the ATM till
Crank the stereo mounted inside
Set the volume up high
Enjoy the scenery as I’m driving along
On an Eagles high.
Cruising out to LA, California
What a lovely place, blessed with Eagles grace.
Plenty of time in LA, California
To search out the band…
Oh, ain’t life grand!?!

Do I scare you a bit
when I follow you every night
You know that I want you
I need you in sight
I've been meaning to cut back
baby, but you're so intense
I have to watch you from the fence
yeah, yeah
I do believe we could kiss all night
I do believe it would be bliss all night
Yes I'm loose and the mood is right
you're so much man, I
believe we could kiss all night
Today I got Spanish Fly
and I want to scream
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
No other band will do
I do believe we could kiss all night
I do believe it would be bliss all night
Yes I'm loose and the mood is right
you're so much man, I
believe we could kiss all night
No band ever do what you do
I don't get high but let's seal the deal
we'll incorporate chocolate fondue
so hot and hard like steel
It's gonna be so exciting
No don't let it be frightening
Yes I'm loose and the mood is right
I'm inspired to fool around
are you inspired for delight
you're so much man
I do believe we could kiss all night
yeah yeah
Woo! It's only midnight baby
Come on and do me
LOL! Honestly, these are all cracking me up. Brilliant!
This is my first attempt, so be gentle! It details a little bit of my Grandad's despair over his shopping trips. He's forever getting nagged for coming back with the wrong stuff, bless 'im ;)
To the tune of The Long Run...
I used to pop to the shop
I could manage quite a lot
I used to bring you everything you'd need
Now, how things have changed
This bugger called Old Age
means shopping ain't what it used to be
I made some boo-boos,
I know it's true,
I bought semi instead of skimmed,
Still I blame you.
But I'm sure they're gonna take it back
when I tell 'em - "It's the wrong one."
I don't know why they rearranged it,
Thank God for exchanges,
It's the wrong one.
You know I don't understand
why you don't make the list clearer
or go and have a look yourself.
Cos all the herbal teas you want, my lady,
are sittin' right there on the shelf.
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."
They had beef but not no bacon,
Woman, what is it you're makin'?
You're a strange one.
Whatcha gonna tell me?
Let me guess.
"It's the wrong one.
I know you ain't stupid,
so why can't you read?
It's the WRONG ONE."
It's the wrong wrong wrong wrong
wrong wrong wrong wrong one...
"Just a little bit lighter, baby"
"Just a little bit bigger, baby"
"Ooh no no baby"
"It's the wrong one"
I even saved the receipt
just to keep you sweet
"It's the wrong one..."
Troub, at my age, there is little that makes me blush but I've got to tell you, I'm feeling it now! You're a bbbbaaaadddd girl! :thumbsup:
I won't deny that in general, but on this occasion, I believe LTL was the bad girl! Mine was very demure ;) :hilarious:Quote:

LTL - Chocolate fondue - I'm there! :blush:
And Troub, you little lyricist! I didn't know you had it in you!
"The Wrong One" - Love it! :hilarious:
NOTE TO PM: Loaded guns for my protection on the road -- and maybe in case Timmy needs a little pursuasion when I get there...
JUST KIDDING!!!! I could never hurt one single gorgeous hair on that hunk of hotness!
