The TGP cheesy member lyrics thread!

[rhinocaster]

I gave Sammy a bit of a hard time for the new lyrics, and in the interest of fair play I'm posting lyrics from two of my cheesiest songs. I actually play these songs for paying customers! :AOK

This is a jump blues:

I WANT TO SEE YOU NAKED (In outer space)

I want to buy you a house way up on the moon.
I want to buy you a house way up on the moon.
When the sun go down the house gonna go BOOM BOOM!

I want to see you naked in outer space.
I want to see you naked in outer space.
Come on baby, won't you float that love my way.

Let's grab us a rocket and go rippin' around the sun.
Let's grab us a rocket and go rippin' around the sun.
Hot rocket sun jumpin' that's my kind of fun!

I want to see you naked in outer space.
I want to see you naked in outer space.
Come on baby, won't you float that love my way.

Like a comet baby you know I want to see your tail.
Like a comet baby you know I want to see your tail.
You got the Allnight Rocket, you know we're gonna jam and wail!

I want to see you naked, I want to see you naked.
I want to see you naked, I want to see you naked.
I want to see you naked in outer space!


This one is just a bouncy blues:

DUCK AND COVER MAN

I say "Happy Birthday", but she find new ways to hurt me.
And on Valentine's Day, chocolates always flyin' my way.
She ain't never got a gift she that she can't hit me with,
No, no
I'm her duck and cover man.

It's like a crazy freeway,
With no off ramp back to sanity.
That girl's makin' me pay,
For everything I do or say.
She ain't never got a gift that she can't hit me with,
No, no
I'm her duck and cover man.

I'm like an instant replay,
of Joe Theismann with his broken leg.
I ain't no lyin' man,
So baby put down that fryin' pan.
She ain't never got a gift that she can't hit me with,
No, no
I'm her duck and cover man.


OK guys, whack away or BETTER YET, add your own cheesy lyrics!
:dude

[crifasta]

Um... sorry, but those are infinitely better than Sammy's recent lyrics. You're gonna need something along the lines of "my heart's on fire... burning with desire" to top the gems he's putting out there. Joe Theismann reference to boot. Try HARDER! :dude

[The Last Rebel]

This song has always had a special place in my heart.

Trogdor!

Trogdor!

Trogdor was a man

I mean, he was a dragon man

Or maybe he was just a dragon

But he was still Trogdor!

Trogdor!

Trogdor!

Burninating the countryside,

Burninating the peasants

Burninating all the peoples

And their thatched-roof cottages!
Thatched-roof cottages!

Whoa, this has wicked dueling guitar solos

It's like squeedly versus meedley over here

Go squeedly!

Go squeedly!!

Squeedly wins!!!

When all the land is in ruins

And burnination has forsaken the countryside

Only one guy will remain

My money's on


Trogdor!

Trogdor!

And the Trogdor comes in the night . . .

You wrote that?

[dunara]

The singer-songwriter I work with regularly came into the studio a while back with a song that included this rather nauseating wee bridge:

May our lives together be like a journey to the sun
A bright new ever after, and for us it's just begun

I was sick in my mouth a bit typing that, BTW. It had to go. This went in its place

May our lives together be like a journey to the sun
At first you get a suntan, then you crash and burn

Big improvement, I thought....:Devil

[Jahn]

ooh a guitar hero version!

Hmm, nauseating lyrics? Back in the 80's for my high school band I was a big fan of The Cure, so I wrote up some doom and gloom lyrics that never should have seen the light of day - I think I actually make my keyboardist leave the band with it, poor gal. Anyhow, this was before emo and goth, so mebbe I was a clever little mopey pioneer? Here we go!

You're feeling used you feel it near
Closing in, feeling it burn

No one else senses no one else knows
They want to run, to know escape
To crave...ESCAPE!

To reach and twist with heavy hands
To crush, hope and waiting still

You take your measured steps
You're falling, and failing to burn

Take your measure you're failing to burn
You're failing to burn failing to BUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!

[rhinocaster]

If people participate, I think that this one could get interesting.

Come on guys. Strip those lyrics naked of the music and toss them up here.

You'll be glad you did. Sammy can take a few shots if he stops by.

Fair is fair!:BEER

Ratt City


We're going down... to Ratt City http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/smile.gif
C'mon down ... to Ratt City


Get there at midnight, hit the east side of town
We'll keep on movin, check what's going down ...
In Ratt City
Streets are dirty, eyes are on you every where ...
Feeling the rush, there's panic in the air..
In Ratt City..


We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City


I'll grab my camera, don't forget your gun ..
Wear your sneakers cuz we may have to run ....
Through Ratt City
A walk through the park should be good for a scare
Guys in the shadows, take their pictures if you dare...
In Ratt City



We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City


Playing with danger as we run on down the street
See some people that you'd never want to meet...
In Ratt City



We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City

We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City

We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City

We're going down... to Ratt City
C'mon down ... to Ratt City

[Dr. Tweedbucket]

ok, this is a good thread! http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/smile.gif

Here is another one now that I'm thinking about. http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/redface.gif


Horsepower Love Affair

[V1]
Filled it up with Leaded Premium Gas
And I'm headed down the highway to see how many cars I can pass
Got 4:11 gears and a Hemi motor under the hood
I like to punch it down in low and hit the gas, it just feels so good.


[Chorus]
I don't always know where I am going to ...
Ya know I don't really care
Watch the miles stacking up as I'm passing cars ...
It's just a Horsepower Love Affair ! !


[V2]
Stopped on the on ramp at Rt. 62 to lay some rubber down
Burnt the tires to the cords and now it's time to head on into town.
The Tire Shack mounted new rubber on some custom wheels
To break them in I smoked them across the parking lot and lawn ain't no big deal


[Chorus]
I don't always know where I am going to ...
Ya know I don't really care http://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/redface.gif
Watch the miles stacking up as I'm passing cars ...
It's just a Horsepower Love Affair ! !


- crappy solo -

[bridge]
Teh hoodscoop is so big, it blocks my vision, out the windshield
..but the car is so loud people usually get out of my way ...
( plus I yell GET OUT OF THE WAYYY )


[V3]
Back on the highway cuz I feel that I'm going too slow
I like to wind the motor up tight, just hope it doesn't blow
When she's runnin this good, there's no need to ever shut her down
Just a heart beat and blink of the eye, and I'm in the next town


[Chorus]
I don't always know where I am going to ...
Ya know I don't really care
Watch the miles stacking up as I'm passing cars ...
It's just a Horsepower Love Affair ! !

Horse power love affair .....

It's just a Horse power love affair ...

Horse power love affair ...

It's just a Horse power love affair ...

Horse power love affair ...

Owww !! Uhhhgg!

I love that horsepower baby ... ohhh yeah!!

[rhinocaster]

The Doctor comes to the rescue!

This is good stuff.

Come on guys. Don't be shy. Spill your guts!

[decay-o-caster]

"I rock solid like the solid rock."
My drummer wouldn't speak to me for the rest of the night when I brought those lyrics in.

143 views and only 4 TGP members feel they've written cheesy enough lyrics to qualify for the thread?

Hmmm.....

Embrace the cheese in your writing!

"Failing to Burn" (?) sets a cool mood among the cheese.

Ratt City was a HUGE surprise. I did not expect that music! My wife and I danced a bit.

The wife digs "I make Fonkay"

I bet I'm going to hear some legendary stuff here!:BEER

[robelinda2]

How many songs have "Dumble" in the lyrics? I can only think of one, by Sonny Landreth, "Gone Pecan". Anyone else? He loves it so much he sings about it while playing it!

[PAF]

Ratt City reminds me of April Wine


At any rate, the singer in one of my former bands wrote some interesting lyrics to say the least - here's a sample:

I love my babysitter
She's such a babe
And when my momma's gone I'll
be her slave

I'll even take a bath if she
wants me to
I'll be so clean and happy
when I'm through

I love my babysitter
she's such a babe
And when my momma's gone I'll
be her slave

I'll even go to bed
before eight
lay there and
.....(rhymes with eight)


heh



He did have one song with some weird/creepy but cool lyrics:

I'll leave if you want me to
and I won't burn all your stuff
I might stalk you for a day or two
until the truth is clear enough

Your sunshine burns me till I
smoke
I twist & bend until I'm
broke

I'll die if you want me to
and I won't leave such a mess
I might haunt you for a month or two
Until you find a new address

Your sunshine burns me till I
smoke
I twist & bend until I'm
broke

I fade away
I fade away

and...Commence to Mate?:AOK And that Clean and Happy line freaks me out, man.

And yeah that second song is straight up Stalker. Eek!

I think most people endeavor not to write cheesy lyrics.

That said, back in the late '70s a friend of mine got a letter from one of those song-poem agencies that offers to put music to your lyrics, and we thought it would be funny to write something really bad and send it in. I sat down and wrote three sets of lyrics that were exceedingly bad and I was very proud of myself. He subsequently lost them. This is all I remember:

"Let Me Need You"

When I see you
On the corner
Oh baby
Don't you know
When I get you
In my apartment
Oh baby
Let it flow

Chorus:
Baby let me need you
Baby let me need you
Baby let me need you
Yeah

...I wish I could remember more -- it was truly bad.

I also wrote one with the idea "all the world world's a stage, will you be my leading lady in the wings?"

I think I had a real talent for cheesy lyric writing but after he lost those lyrics I kind of lost my heart for it, you know?

-Scott

[Andromeda]

"Let's put the X in sex...love's like a muscle and you make me want to flex."



oh wait....that one's already taken. :p

[Alvis]

But I mentioned Joe Theismann is a song!:(

That aint so bad, I've mentioned Tony Robbins.....

I know that rarely does anyone set out to make the cheese, but we've all done it at one time or another. It's healthy to acknowledge and embrace it!

[rhinocaster]

Now THAT'S a bold move!

[mcknigs]

If I set out to write cheese and turn out to have a talent for it, does that make me a cheeze whiz?

Sorry, Sammy is the master;
"Only time will tell if we stand the test of time."
The worst ever.
