RULES: you must name the song. you must keep the tempo and rhthym of the original recording so that the reader doesn't need to guess and interpret.. just do it.. e.g. as an simple example..

BETTERMAN

sweating, flogging his stock,
it's 12 o'clock,
it never stops...

that's an example..

here's my entry

I AM MINE

the arrogance never enters his mind,
carving a piece of evermore's kind,
stalking and creeping and thus left behind,
be still my mind..

striking is beauty which man must unwind,
all that shines must surely be mine,
for i am the horseman greed in this time,
be still my mind..

and the stealing it gets left way back,
in the barn of an old red hay stack,
there to die as an old man doth hack,

i feel good (and sad) tonite..

a tobacco stain grows deep inside,
a hack of a cough to deride,
i am not innocent and yet i know right...

I'm safe tonite...........

just a little ditty bout jack n diane... 2 young lovers doin the best they can
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    bumping ..

    have some fun..

    SOMETHING MAN

    Once derided,
    Nonetheless he is back,
    Some people chided,
    Others draped in black,
    Chants on his own,
    About a love he's found,
    Rises above,
    Cravings to which his heart is bound..

    Something Man,
    Something Man..
    Isn't it Something
    The Love He's Found

    Once was deceived,
    In a time past here and now,
    One day he stiffened,
    Against the tide of salty swells..

    Empty eyes,
    These eyes no longer cry,
    See only dirth and madness,
    Feel only the crazed, looney smile of

    Something Man
    Something Man..
    Could have been nothing,
    Something Man
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Clock on the wall says
    drink up your beer
    It's rare to come upon
    a pub that's open all day 'round
    and all night loooong
    If I'd a notion-ah ah
    to buy from the store
    since The Man in the pub is through with our fucking noise
    I'm through with pubbing

    Alcoes, alcoes,
    nobody serves alcoes, alcoes, alco-o-o-o-o-oes
    alcoes, alcoes,
    nobody serves alcoes- alcoes, alco-o-o-o-oes

    (It goes like this)

    Skinfulllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
    We beer till we heave
    We beer till we heave yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
    Skinfullllllllllllllllllllllllllll
    We beer till we heave
    We beer till we heave yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

    (solo bit)

    Skinfulllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
    We beer till we heave
    We beer till we heave yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
    Skinfullllllllllllllllllllllllllll
    We beer till we heave
    We beer till we heave yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay


    And so I'll keep drinks here at home
    I've got 'em so cold
    My fridge is one great box of beer
    I never miss them
    Drinking down, I'm drowned out, drowned out
    What's a drunk to do?
    Just drink here darling, and I will drink too
    a skinfullllllll
    with you.

    :D

    I love it.....(do you know that in the Electricity Australia's brochure for energy saving tips for the summer....which I got last week (autumn).....they suggested not having a second refrigerator just for beer!!!!! what a travesty......they said it would save $200 a year on energy bills......but I reckon a man needs an extra beer fridge.....oh, the joys of being an alcie have never bin made clear......but I'd rather be an alcie an' love my friggin beer).....hehehehe
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
