"Changing" Lyrics

Post by YankeeRose »

Does any else out there change lyrics when they sing along to certain tunes, as I do? "Summer of '69", is "Summer of '79" and a few other small changes that make it "fit".
Many years ago when I lived in VA and then TX, "Sweet Home Alabama" became "Sweet Home Pennsylvania". PA isn't the only word I've changed...there are many more, including: "I heard the _______ talk about her, yeah that slime ball puts her down. He can go back to New Jersey, we don't need him around, any how." More? "In Harrisburg they love the Gov'nor", and of course, "In Altoona we have the Hurricanes, they've been known to pick a song or two." :D



I've always wondered if other people do the same thing, make tunes personal - or even funny!

Oh man! :roll: I'm the "dirty" Weird Al! :oops: Especially songs I don't like. I've got whole entire lyrics for shit like Creeds "(Arms)Cheeks Wide Open."

I just heard
The news today
Turns out
I'm fuckin gay :lol:

With cheeks wide open
Under the moonlight
Welcome to my place
You can jizz in my face

Cheeks wide open....

Also I've found that "drug" is usually a good replacement for "love."

Might as well face it, you're addicted to DRUGS/ Palmer

Feel like takin DRUGS / Bad Co.

You give DRUGS a bad name / Bon Jovi

etc...

Yes I know, I'm a twisted fuck!

Take It in The Head (Take A Look Ahead )..... Boston

I always say Sweet Home " Pennsyltucky " instead of Sweet Home Alabama . I guy I worked with, who was from Alabama, hated it when all of us" PA Hellbillies " would sing it that way. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad but, we were work'n in Alabama at the time. I'm a Yankee through and through so that's prolly the way I'll sing it till the day I die !

There are lots of songs like that for me and I too am a sick bastard sometimes but , I always did like Weird Al and parodies of songs . My favorite one has to be " My Skrotum " by Cheech and Chong . :lol:

Here's one for Bobby:
Here I Am, Fuck me I'm a Hurricane.- Scorps

I find that the f-bomb is a great replacement for rock in most songs.
That may be the best pickup line i've ever heard.LOL

HAHA I was at Karoke(or however its spelled) lastnigt at Aldo's and there is a song I cant stand,ok I can stand it but I dont care for it and its sung over and over every week...Ok Ok I will tell you...

"Dirty Deeds, I hate this song, Dirty deeds, this song sucks!"

yup thats what I sung the whole way thru till the song was over...


Ac dc is great to dance to but ugh....:)


most times Im singing along and I will change the words to "And I forgot the words that go here" or "lalala" In high school we made up a bunch of lyrics to songs, like Shot thru the bus window , and your to blame....sorry that is about all I can remember, it was really funny at 14... :lol:

ROMANTICS:

What I like about you.
Not a fuckin thing
Always gettin on my nerves
Always in my wayyy.. (yeah!)

Ok it doesnt rhyme or exactly fit, but thats what I sing when I hear that song. It makes me laugh. I always change the lyrics to songs, comercial radio would drive me insane otherwise.

AQUALUNG: towards the end....DEE DE DE DEEE< EE EFF AND GEEE.. :lol:

Any time you get to the words, "makin' love," or "make love," insert the words "takin' drugs, " or "take drugs." In fact replace the word, "love" with the word, "drugs" any chance you get. It turns the most beautiful songs into laments about addiction, and cheesy pop crap into funny dope-fiend anthems. Singing said songs in a Pennsylvania Redneck accent is even funnier. Okay, my wife is a little sick of it, but that's not gonna make me stop! :lol: -------->JMS

LMAO!! :lol: This is fun! Here's a few...

Elvis:
Drug me tender, drug me dear, tell me you are mine.
I'll be yours through all the years till the end of time.
Drug me tender,drug me true, all my dreams fulfill.
For, my darlin', I drug you and I always will.


Eurythimics:
The miracle of drugs
Will take away your pain
When the miracle of drugs
Comes your way again.


Air Supply:
I 'm all out of drugs, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right believing for so long
I 'm all out of drugs, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong :lol:



John Denver:
People think I'm crazy as I walk along the street.
I don't understand them anyway.
All I know is since you came my life has been so sweet.
That's the way I know it's gonna stay.
Won't you stay with me and watch your garden grow. 8)
I drug you, I want you, please say you'll
Gimme your drugs forever,
Gimme your drugs,
You gotta gimme your drugs forever,
Oh, oh, gimme your drugs,
drugs drugs, drugs
Gimme your drugs.
Gimme your drugs forever,
Gimme your drugs,
Gimme your drugs forever



Minnie Riperton:
Drugin' you is easy cause you're beautiful
Makin' drugs with you is all i wanna do
Drugin' you is more than just a dream come true
And everything that i do is out of drugin' you
La la la la la la la... do do do do do
:shock: :lol:
Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug.
