This I Love
Guns N' Roses
Chinese Democracy (2008)

And now I don't know why
She wouldn't say goodbye
But then it seems that I
Had seen it in her eyes

And it might not be wise
I'd still have to try
With all the love I have inside
I can't deny

I just can't let it die
Cause her heart's just like mine
And she holds her pain inside

So if you ask me why
She wouldn't say goodbye
I know somewhere inside

There is a special light
Still shining bright
And even on the darkest night
She can't deny

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else
Could ever make me feel
I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe
And found myself
Within' her eyes

No matter how I try
They say it's all a lie
So what's the use of my
Confessions to a crime
Of passions that won't die
In my heart

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else
Could ever make me feel
I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe
And found myself
Within' her eyes

So if she's somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There's no one else
Could ever make me feel
I'm so alive

I hoped she'd never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I've searched the universe
And found myself within' her eyes

And now I don't know why
She wouldn't say goodbye
It just might be that I
Had seen it in her eyes
And now it seems that I
Gave up my ghost of pride
I'll never say goodbye

I shall now attempt to type all the lyrics to Weird Al's Theme to Rocky XIII (The Rye or the Kaiser) completely from memory.

Here we go:

You did very well. I think its awesome that as I was reading through the lyrics you wrote I was telling my wife that I didn't think you got them exactly right. After listening to the song again, I was right! But still you did better then I could have straight from memory.

[Deafens Proner]

Ramones - Poison Heart

No one ever thought this one would survive
Helpless child, gonna walk a drum beat behind
Lock you in a dream, never let you go
Never let you laugh or smile, not you.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart
I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart.

Making friends with a homeless torn up man
He just kind of smiles, it really shakes me up.
There's danger on every corner but I'm okay
Walking down the street trying to forget yesterday.

Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart,
A poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart ... yeah!

You know that life really takes its toll
And a poet's gut reaction is to search his very soul
So much damn confusion before my eyes,
But nothing seems to phase me and this one still survives.

I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart.
I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart,
Well, I just want to walk right out of this world,
Cause everybody has a poison heart.
A poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.
A poison heart, a poison heart, a poison heart.

I shall now attempt to type all the lyrics to Weird Al's Theme to Rocky XIII (The Rye or the Kaiser) completely from memory.

Here we go:

You did very well. I think its awesome that as I was reading through the lyrics you wrote I was telling my wife that I didn't think you got them exactly right. After listening to the song again, I was right! But still you did better then I could have straight from memory.

What is this “wife” you speak of? I am intrigued… 

For my next attempt at lyrics recital from memory, I’m gonna go with my fave Saga tune, Don’t  Be Late:

Look at him running, He’s so far to go
He’s very short of breath
And he said, don’t be late, just don’t be late
With his parcel tucked tight under his arm
He’s sure he’s past halfway
And he said, don’t be late, just don’t be late

Did you do everything you’re told?
The instruction you had was old

I wasn’t sure if I’d hear you
I’m glad you’re still all right

It’s all been arranged for ten
The streets should be clear by then

I’ve done all that you’ve told me
I’m sure that they will wait

The structure was made quite clear
If you’re late they will not appear

They don’t know, they don’t know
They don’t know how far we’ve had to go

You can pick up the slowing pace
You’re running a losing race

NO! Soon we’ll see them, then you’ll know
That I have not been late


They said now hurry and don’t be late
You better hurry you may be late
They said now hurry and don’t be late
You better hurry you may be… late


If we’re late I will not survive
And they won’t keep me alive

It’s not too far now
And I can only wish you luck, friend

I‘m sorry to go alone
This metal is not called home

I can see them waiting
A few more steps and you’ll be there


He said, now hurry and don’t be late
You better hurry you may be late
They said now hurry and don’t be late
You better hurry you may be… late

Let’s hear how I did:


If LyricsCrawler.com is accurate, I missed a couple words here and there, and really misfired on a few verses (marked in red):

Look at him running there's so far to go,
He's very short of breath
And he'd said don't be late
Just don't be late

With his parcel tucked tight under his arm
He's sure he's passed half way
And he'd said don't be late
Just don't be late.

DID YOU DO EVERYTHING YOU'RE TOLD
THE INSTRUCTION YOU HAD WAS OLD

I wasn't sure if I'd hear you
I'm glad you're still allright

IT'S ALL BEEN ARRANGED FOR TEN
THE STREETS SHOULD BE CLEAR BY THEN

I've done all that you told me
I'm sure that they will wait

THEIR TIMING WAS MADE QUITE CLEAR
IF WE'RE LATE THEY WILL NOT APPEAR

They don't know, they don't know
They don't know how far we've had to go

CAN YOU PICK UP THIS SLOWING PACE
YOU'RE RUNNING A LOSING RACE

No ! Soon we'll see them
Then you'll know
That I have not delayed, he said


Hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry you might be late
Just hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry you may be late


IF WE'RE LATE I WILL NOT SURVIVE
THEY WILL KEEP ME ALIVE

It's not too far now
And I can only wish you luck friend

I'M SORRY I GO ALONE
THIS METAL IS A COLD HOME

I can see they're waiting
A few more steps and you'll be there, he said

[Chorus]

Just hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry you may be late

[Deafens Proner]

You Ain't The First
Guns N' Roses

I tried so hard just to get through to you
But your head's so far
from the realness of truth
Was it just a come on in the dark
Wasn't meant to last long
I think you've worn your welcome honey
I'll just see you along as I sing you this song

Time can pass slowly,
things always change
You day's been numbered
And I've read your last page
You was just a temporary lover
Honey you ain't the first
Lots of others came before you woman
Said but you been the worst
Sa' you been the worst

So goodbye to you girl
So long, farewell
I can't hear you cryin'
Your jivin's been hell
So look for me walkin'
Down your street at night
I'll be in with another
Deep down inside

Deep down inside

Dumb All Over - Frank Zappa

Whoever we are, wherever we're from, we shoulda noticed by now our behaviour is dumb
 And if our chances expect to improve it's gonna take a lot more than tryin' to remove the other race or the other whatever from the face of the planet altogether
 They call it "The Earth" which is a dumb kinda name but they named it right 'cause we behave the same
 We are dumb all over
Dumb all over, yes we are, dumb all over, near and far, dumb all over, black 'n white, people, we is not wrapped tight
 And nerds on the left, nerds on the right
Religious fanatics on the air every night, sayin' the bible tells the story and makes the details sound real gory about what to do if the geeks over there don't believe in the book we got over here
 You can't run a race without no feet
And pretty soon there won't be no street for dummies to jog on or doggies to dog on
 Religious fanatics can make it be all gone
I mean it won't blow up and disappear, it'll just look ugly for a thousand years
 You can't run a country by a book of religion
Not by a heap or a lump or a smidgeon of foolish rules of ancient date, designed to make you all feel great while you fold, spindle and mutilate those unbelievers from a neighbouring state
 To arms, to arms
Hooray! That's great, two legs ain't bad
Unless there's a crate they ship the parts to mama in
For souvenirs: two ears (Get down)
Not his, not hers but what the hey
The good book says, "It's gotta be that way"
But their book says, "Revenge the crusades"
With whips 'n chains and hand grenades
Two arms, two arms
Have another and another
Our Cod says, "There ain't no other"
Our Cod says, "It's all ok"
Our god says "This is the way"
It says in the book, "Burn and destroy"
And repent and redeem and revenge and deploy and rumble thee forth to the land of the unbelieving scum on the other side
 'Cause they don't go for what's in the book and that makes 'em bad
So verily we must choppeth them up and stompeth them down
Or rent a nice French bomb to poof them out of existence while leaving their real estate just where we need it to use again for temples in which to praise our god, 'cause he can really take care of business
 And when his humble TV servant with humble white hair and humble glasses and a nice brown suit and maybe a blonde wife who takes phone calls, tells us our god says it's ok to do this stuff, then we gotta do it
 'Cause if we don't do it we ain't "Gwine up to hebbin"
Depending on which book you're using at the time
Can't use theirs, it don't work, it's all lies, gotta use mine
Ain't that right?
That's what they say
Every night, everyday
Hey, we can't really be dumb if we're just following god's orders
Well let's get serious, god knows what he's doin'
He wrote this book here and the book says, "He made us all to be just like him"
So, if we're dumb, then god is dumb and maybe even a little ugly on the side
Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side
Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side
Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side
Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side

Green Day [She]

She
She screams in silence
A sullen riot penetrating through her mind
Waiting for a sign
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you

She
She's figured out
All her doubts were someone else's point of view
Waking up this time
To smash the silence with the brick of self-control

Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you

Are you locked up in a world
That's been planned out for you
Are you feeling like a social tool without a use
Scream at me until my ears bleed
I'm taking heed just for you

[Zagnorch]

Time for me to do another recitation from memory.

Today's selection: The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny by Lemon Demon.

Old Godzilla was hoppin' around
Tokyo city like a big playground
When suddenly Batman burst from the shade
and hit Godzilla with a bat-grenade
Godzilla got pissed and began to attack
but didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq
who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq-fu
when Aaron Carter came out of the blue
and started beating up Shaquille O'Neal
then they both got flattened by the batmobile
but before he could make it back to the batcave
Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave
he pulled an AK-47 out from under his hat
and blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat
but he ran out of bullets and he ran away
'Cuz Optimus Prime came to save the day

This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions
as far as the eye could see
and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be?
this is the ultimate showdown... of ultimate destiny

Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime
Like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime
and Shaq came back covered in a tire track
but Jackie Chan leapt up and landed on his back
and Batman was injured and tried to get steady
when Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete
but something caught his leg and he tripped
Indiana Jones took him out with his whip
And he saw Gozilla sneaking up from behind
And he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find
'cuz Batman stole it and he shot and he missed
Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist
and he jumped in the air and he did a somersault
while Abraham Lincoln tried to pole vault
onto Optimus Prime but they collided in the air
and they both got hit by a Care Bear stare

This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions
as far as the eye could see
and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be?
this is the ultimate showdown...

Angels sang out in immaculate chorus
Down from the heavens descended Chuck Norris
Who delivered a kick that could shatter bones
into the crotch of Indiana Jones
who fell down to the ground writhing in pain
as Batman changed back into Bruce Wayne
but Chuck saw through his clever disguise
and he crushed Batman's head in between his thighs

And Gandalf the Gray and Gandalf the White
andMonty Python and the Holy Grail's Black Knight
and Benito Mussolini and the Blue Meanie
and Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie
RoboCop, The Terminator, Captain Kirk and Darth Vader
Lo Pan, Superman, every single Power Ranger
Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan
Spock, The Rock, Doc Ock and Hulk Hogan
all came out of nowhere lightning fast
and kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy ass
it was the bloodiest battle that the world ever saw
with civilans looking on in total awe

The fight raged on for a century
many lives were claimed, but eventually
A champion stood-- the rest saw their better:


Mr. Rogers in a blood-stained sweater.

[img width=500 height=375]http://sharkhug.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Mr.Rogers-Flip-Off.jpg[/img]

This is the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions
as far as the eye could see
and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be?
this is the ultimate showdown (this is the ultimate showdown)
this is the ultimate showdown (this is the ultimate showdown)
this is the ultimate showdown... of ultimate destiny

Let's hear how I did:

[Deafens Proner]

Ha Ha You're Dead [by Green Day]

How do you get your sleep at night?
How did you get your noose so tight?
Like chewing on tinfoil, it's so much fun
Gonna be dead before your gone

Cause look how things have gotten
And I'll be happy so I won't pretend
And I'll be cheering that you're going down
And I'll be laughing, I'll be laughing

How many feelings can you steal?
Gotta be part of your appeal
I can see through you cause you're wearing thin
Like chewing on tinfoil once again

Cause look how things have gotten
And I'll be happy so I won't pretend
And I'll be cheering that you're going down
And I'll be laughing
Ha Ha you're dead
And I'm so happy
In loving memory
Of your demise

When your ship is going down
I'll go out and paint the town
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead

(ha ha ha)

Ha Ha you're dead
And I'm so happy
In loving memory
Of your demise

When your ship is going down
I'll go out and paint the town
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead

Ha Ha you're dead
The joke is over
You were an asshole
And now you're gone
As your ship is going down
I'll stand by and watch you drown

Ha Ha you're dead
You're gonna be dead
Just remember what I said
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead
Ha Ha you're dead

[Zagnorch]

Time for another "Weird Al" recital off the top of my head.

Today, I'll attempt to recall a tune from Al's self-titled debut album, I Love Rocky Road:

I hear those ice cream bells and I start to drool
Keep a couple quarts in my locker at school
Yeah, but chocolate's gettin' old
Vanilla just leaves me cold
There's just one flavor good enough for me, yeah me
Don't gimme no crummy taste spoon, I know what I need

Yeah, I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with me

Aaaow!


They tell me ice cream junkies are all the same
All the soda-jerkers know my name
When their supply is gone, then I'll be movin' on
But I'll be back on Monday afternoon, you'll see
Another truckload's comin' in for me, all for me

Singin', I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with me

Aaaow!

(Accordion bridge)

Oh, make it talk!

And when I'm all alone, I just grab myself a cone
And if I get fat and loose my teeth that's fine with me
Just lock me in the freezer and throw away the key

Singin', I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with me
I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with
I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with
I love rocky road
so why don't you buy a half a gallon, baby
I love rocky road
So have another triple scoop with me

And now, the reveal:

Time for another "Weird Al" recital off the top of my head.

It's nice to know if there is some dystopian apocalypse, we will have you with a record of all that is great in the world of music.

Eat It
Weird Al Yankovic

How come you're always such a fussy young man,
Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raisin Bran,
Well don't you know that other kids are starving in Japan,
So eat it, just eat it.

Don't want to argue, I don't want to debate
Don't want to hear about what kind of food you hate.
You won't get no desert till you clean off your plate.
So eat it.

Don't tell me you're full

Just eat it, eat it,
Get yourself an egg and beat it.
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it,
Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it.

Your table manners are a crying shame
Your playin' with your food, this ain't some kind of game.
Now if you starve to death you'll just have yourself to blame.
So eat it, just eat it.

You better listen, better do what you're told,
You haven't even touched your tuna casserole,
You better chow down or it's gonna get cold,
So eat it.

I don't care if you're full

Just eat it, eat it.
Open up your mouth and feed it.
Have some more yogurt, have some more Span,
It doesn't matter if it's fresh or canned

Just eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it.
Have a banana, have a whole bunch,
It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it,
eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it.

Just eat it, eat it,
If it's getting cold reheat it
Have a big dinner, have a light snack,
If you don't like it you can't send it back.

Just eat it, eat it,
Get yourself an egg and beat it.
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's broiled or fried

Just eat it, eat it,
Don't you make me repeat it.

It's nice to know if there is some dystopian apocalypse, we will have you with a record of all that is great in the world of music.

Speaking of all that is great: I will now recall the lyrics to a couple Trey Parker movie themes, starting with...

Now You're a Man (theme from Orgazmo*)

Hey!
