Title: FAO: Everybody
Post by: flammableBen on Friday, September 12, 2008, 01:49:13
Do you remember the old days? When the little title below your name was something that someone had assigned you?

I miss that power. At the moment you can set your own title in your profile settings. I'd set it to something you'd like to think represents yourself, because I'm planning to take the ability to set your own title away from you.

You might want to think about it.

Post by: flammableBen on Friday, September 12, 2008, 01:58:32
Sorry if that's a bit cryptic. You've got until tomorrow (ish) to set your own title. After that I'm taking over the title power.

My humour glands have always seemed far better developed from my perspective than others, so no doubt fB can amuse himself by crawling user's profiles later.

Have you tried to edit it yourself Samdy, because i have no way of telling if you can no longer do it yourself?

Wake up kids
We've got the dreamers disease
Age 14 we got you down on your knees
So polite, you're busy still saying please
Fr- enemies, who when you're down ain't your friend
Every night we smash their Mercedes - Benz
First we run and then we laugh till we cry
But when the night is falling
And you cannot find the light
If you feel your dream is dying
Hold tight
You've got the music in you

Ooh I watched you grow up
Only to despise
I seen the madness stack up through
Tarpaulin eyes
I have heard you come up
Believing your own lies
Witnessed the blessing rise up in a
A very strange disguise

Though you have become a burden
One thing remains, thats for certain
I will love you all my life
But without you in my life

Ooh I watched you climb up
I seen you come alive
From those very humble beginnings in
NW5

Though we face the final curtain
One thing remains, thats for certain
I will love you all my life
But without you in my life

I would give you everything
For just the smile you bring
For just the song to sing
I would give you everything
For just that smile you bring
For just that song to sing I sing now

When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

For Reg and Herthab

We'll drink the drink to drink
To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink
The saviour of the human race
She invented medicinal compound
She was efficacious in every case

Mr Fleers had sticky out ears
And it made him awful shy
So they gave him medicinal compound
Now he's learning how to fly

Rubber Tony was known to be boney
He would never eat his meals
So they gave him medicinal compound
Now they move him round on wheels

We'll drink the drink to drink
To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink
The saviour of the human race
She invented medicinal compound
She was efficacious in every case

Ebenezer thought he was Julius Ceasar
So they put him in a home
Where they gave him medicinal compound
Now he's Emperor of Rome

Johnny Hammer had a terrible s-stammer
He could hardly s-say a word
So they gave him medicinal compound
Now he's seen, but never heard

Anty Millie ran willy-nilly
And her legs, they did recede
So they looked up medicinal compound
Now they call her Millipede

Jennifer Eccles had terrible freckles
And all the boys called her names
But she changed with medicinal compound
Now she joins in all the games

We'll drink the drink to drink
To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink
The saviour of the human race
She invented medicinal compound
She was efficacious in every case

Lilly, the pink, she turned to drink
She filled up the bar with everything in sight
And in spite her medicinal compound
Sadly, pickle-Lilly died

Up to Heaven, her soul assended
All the church bells, they did ring
She took with her medicinal compound
Hark the herald angel sing

We'll drink the drink to drink
To Lilly the pink, the pink, the pink
The saviour of the human race
She invented medicinal compound
She was efficacious in every case

She come round here, her head to the ground?
Come round here just about midnight,
She makes me feel so good, make me feel all right.
She come round my street, now
She come to my house
Knock upon my door
Climbing up my stairs - one, two, three
Come on baby
Here she is in my room, oh boy
Hey what's your name?
How old are you?
Where'd you go to school?
Well, now that we know each other a little bit better,
Why don't you come over here and make me feel all right!

Gore taste so scrumptious

A loving heart and open mind,
To see the real me,
And I hoped that you would be the one...

A chance to talk, a chance to grow,
I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow,
I've found the words, I need to say...

SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM!
SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME,
SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU!
SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME,
NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU!

And now I know that you are mine,
You bring me love and peace of mind.
You see the real me,
And I know that you're the key...

SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM!
SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME,
SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU!
SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME,
NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU!

Come on and listen to my tale
It's a strange and sorry tale
That's gonna rock you
About a man, the drifting kind
Let the story now unwind
It's gonna shock you

Some people said he was a ghost
Wouldn't wanna be his host
Or just to meet him
And if he ever came their way
They'd be sticks and stones, I'd say
That would grieve him

He was a Steppenwolf, a lost and lonely one
He was a Steppenwolf, forever on the run
He was a Steppenwolf, with a forgotten past
He was a Steppenwolf, who found a love at last
He was a Steppenwolf

If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
bout a ghost from a wishin well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
And I will never be set free
As long as Im a ghost that you cant see
If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
But heroes often fail
And you wont read that book again
Because the endings just too hard to take

As the bouncer(3) is a sumo wrestler, cream-puff(4) Casper Milktoast(5)
And the owner is a mental midget with the IQ of a fence post
Cause the piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking
And you can't find your waitress with a Geiger counter
And she hates you and your friends and you just can't get served without her
And the box-office is drooling, and the bar stools are on fire
And the newspapers were fooling, and the ashtrays have retired
Cause the piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking
not me
not me
not me
not me
not

Girls Aloud to Tom Waits via the likes of Aqua and Deep Blue Something.

A proud moment for TEF.

If I drink enough Jack Daniels I can do a passable Tom Waits impression!

How about this:

Miss, you don't know me
But can't we pretend
That we care for eachother
Til the band reach the end

One steps for aching, 2 steps for breaking, Waltzings for dreamers and the losers in love.

The piano has been drinking, my necktie is asleep
And the combo went back to New York, the jukebox has to take a leak
And the carpet needs a haircut, and the spotlight looks like a prison break
Cause the telephone's out of cigarettes, and the balcony is on the make(2)
And the piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking, and the menus are all freezing
And the light man's blind in one eye and he can't see out of the other
And the piano tuner's got a hearing aid, and he showed up with his mother
And the piano has been drinking
The piano has been drinking
As the bouncer(3) is a sumo wrestler, cream-puff(4) Casper Milktoast(5)
And the owner is a mental midget with the IQ of a fence post

Ah memories!

it's awesome. i went into a bar in little rock where they had a pianist who took requests, myself and an american girl i met thought it'd be amusing to request it thinking he wouldn't know it - he did a fucking brilliant rendition of it.

certainly an awesome memory

We're not gonna maaaake it, no no,
we're not gonna maaake it,
'cos there's a million better bands, with a million better songs,
and singers who can sing, and drummers who can drum.

I can't play drums, and I can't really sing,
I tried to play guitar, but it's got far too many strings,
I play bass.

It's got four strings, I only use two,
Never worked out what the others do,
I play bass.

Still don't know quite why I'm here,
Never mind, I'll get another beer,
I play bass.

Can't find an actual link to the song, but the bloke playing bass along to it does really well...until the stupidly difficult bit.

I only dreamed that I would find,
A loving heart and open mind,
To see the real me,
And I hoped that you would be the one...

A chance to talk, a chance to grow,
I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow,
I've found the words, I need to say...

SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM!
SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME,
SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU!
SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME,
NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU!

And now I know that you are mine,
You bring me love and peace of mind.
You see the real me,
And I know that you're the key...

SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM!
SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME,
SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU!
SUDDENLY, EVERY PART OF ME,
NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU!

(insert TEF instrumental conducted by flammableBen here followed by a key change ala Westlife)

SUDDENLY YOU'RE SEEING ME, JUST THE WAY I AM!
SUDDENLY YOU'RE HEARING ME,
SO I'M TALKING JUST FAST AS I CAN, TO YOU!
SUDDENLY, OPENLY, YOU'RE ALL I WANT!
ALL I NEED YOU TO BE!
SUDDENLY EVERY PART OF ME,
NEEDS TO KNOW EVERY PART OF YOU!

Just you...it's you...

Apologise for resurrecting an old thread to get it back on topic, but can I have 'Should've gone to Specsavers' as my thing please? Some little Stockportonian said it to me today - the ultimate irony of course being that I DID go to Specsavers. Anyway, I'd like it commemorated :D
