Name That Song!

[EPeter213]

Post your wacky song lyrics here!

I consider my taste in music to be rather eclectic, and I spend most of my work day with Pandora on Shuffle in the back ground.

Occasionally, a lyric will pop through and make me do a double take, so I thought "Why not make a name that song thread for posting really odd lyrics?"

For example: can anyone name the artist and song for these lyrics without googling?

In a CD karaoke bar
By the banks of the mighty Bosphorus
Is a Japanese man in a business suit singing "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes"
And the muscular cyborg German dudes dance with sexy French Canadians
While the overweight Americans wear their patriotic jumpsuits


Take a guess, and post your own selection!

Now, Dance f---er dance
Man, he never had a chance
And no one even knew
It was really only you

Nice!

You're gonna go far, kid! -The Offspring

I'll have to find something to post later if no one beats me to it. Off to work.

Up on the Blue Ridge mountain,
there I'll take my stand.
A rifle on my shoulder,
6 shooter in my hand.
..........
Lulu, my Lulu
come and open the door.
before I have to walk on in,
with my old 44

I've been all around this World - Grateful Dead

Christ had 12 Apostles
Three he led away
He said "Watch with me one hour
Till I go yonder and pray"

I know I've heard this.. I think its from John the Relevator, but I can't find the version I've heard. No Idea who wrote it.

I tend to makeup my own lyrics because I don't really know the words.

Salt scales upon my drying arms
Burn my back beneath the sun
But I am cold beneath the burning rays
Looking down, looking down, down, down again

Salt scales upon my drying arms
Burn my back beneath the sun
But I am cold beneath the burning rays
Looking down, looking down, down, down again
