Lyrically Speaking 10-28-25

#1 Post by elwoodblues » Mon Oct 27, 2025 9:45 pm

This is something that others have done, and I wanted to try it. The lyrics are expressed in other words.


1. I hung around the city once known as Leningrad
When I decided it was time for something completely different
I murdered the ruler and his assistants
The youngest daughter of Nicholas II cried out to no avail

2. Next you piloted your private aircraft to a province in eastern Canada
To view the phenomenon of the moon passing directly between the earth and the nearest star

3. I traveled from the capital of the Grand Canyon state
The entire distance to a city near Seattle
Largest city in Pennsylvania, largest city in Georgia, abbreviation for the largest city in California

4. The title character returned to his rented space
Just to discover a holy book provided by a Christian men’s association

5. I have yet to visit the United Kingdom
However, I am rather fond of a famous music group from there
I set out for the largest city in Nevada
But only got as far as a town in the California desert

6. There was heavy precipitation in the Bay Area
I required an additional passenger to complete my shift
A woman in front of me signaled for me to stop
She boarded the vehicle at the traffic signal

7. She was born before me
Is she as sexually adventurous as I am
Will she perform oral gratification on you in a movie house

8. A woman with breast implants and her husband who also handles her business affairs
Informed me that I have potential


Bonus 1: What actor is #2 supposedly about?



Bonus 2: What actor is #7 supposedly about?
