Lyrically Speaking - 2/11/19
I knew I had done the board game Monopoly as an LSWE theme before, but I was surprised to find out that dated back to the very first contest in 2008. So, I think it's time to get that game back out of the bottom of the closet and play it again! Not the exact same game as last time... I didn't even look at which songs I used then while compiling this one. Now, who wants to take a ride on the Reading with me?
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. She's got wonderful eyes and a risque mouth
And when I ask her before, she said she's holding out
2. This low down bitching
Got my poor feet itching
Don`t you know you know
The deuce is still wild
3. Well, since my baby left
Well I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
4. From the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and French fries they sell
5. So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go
6. You search in your bag
Light up a fag
Think it's a drag, but you're so glad
To be alive honey
7. When I hold her in my arms
You know, she sets my soul on fire
Ooh, when my baby kisses me
My heart becomes filled with desire
8. Father gets up late for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
9. In the jungle,
The mighty jungle
10. Girl your memory won't ever haunt me
Cause I don't love you
Now if you'll buy that
11. I was shootin’ dice, rakin’ in the dough (long green)
And then I hea-ard the whistle blow
We started to run when a man in blue
Said "señor, come with me ‘cause I want you."
12. Put your makeup on
Fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight

I knew I had done the board game Monopoly as an LSWE theme before, but I was surprised to find out that dated back to the very first contest in 2008. So, I think it's time to get that game back out of the bottom of the closet and play it again! Not the exact same game as last time... I didn't even look at which songs I used then while compiling this one. Now, who wants to take a ride on the Reading with me?

Me and Wiki both think we know two of the old-timey songs here. We're not sure how, because they're not like our car-singing songs, and I can't remember Annie every playing either of them, but they are familiar. The only thing I can think of is that, because both Wiki and me found our mom in the same animal shelter, even though it was years apart, maybe somebody who worked there played them on the loud speaker late at night or something. Anyway, we're both absolutely positive, maybe.

We don't know one. We're not real clear exactly what a Monopoly reference is, except maybe a thick library book about all the rules, standards, and legal arguments about the game. To us, that sounds like a dumb thing to write a song about.

Re: Lyrically Speaking - 2/11/19
Spoiler
I knew I had done the board game Monopoly as an LSWE theme before, but I was surprised to find out that dated back to the very first contest in 2008. So, I think it's time to get that game back out of the bottom of the closet and play it again! Not the exact same game as last time... I didn't even look at which songs I used then while compiling this one. Now, who wants to take a ride on the Reading with me?

As much as he probably thinks I pick on him, I am truly stunned that four weeks into the LSWE and Esto had not won an IBB yet. That changed with the Blind Date version of Monopoly, which cracked me up despite my generally hatred of all special editions of just about any classic institution. That just beat out melly's Parker Brothers, which I thought was especially clever...

I thought "B&O Railroad" was by best image so far (and my Krox was good too). So I won't get an IBB this year. At least I can still get the attendance bonus.littlebeast13 wrote:jarnon gets a JJC point for reminding me of my bus riding days...
