Answers & Points - Lyrically Speaking - 2/24/09

#1 Post by AnnieCamaro » Tue Feb 24, 2009 12:49 am

I was happyhappyhappy when Mr. LB asked me if I'd like to host one of his Lyrically Speaking games for him. As I'm sure you all know, I am a really big fan of music, especially those wonderful compositions by Mr. Mozart. I wrote a lovely game with lyrics from my favorite operas, but Mr. LB was polite and tactful when he told me that it wasn't quite the kind of game he'd like to use. I guess Mr. LB's tastes in music leave a thing or two to be desired, but I would never say a mean thing about his lack of culture. That's just the kind of girl I am.

So I wrote up a more conventional LS game, finding 12 songs that contain one of my favorite words in it, for Mr. LB to use for his Tuesday Wordplay game. I was on my way to the mailbox to send it off when I passed by Evil Squirrel, who said he could save time and postage by delivering the game to LB himself. I didn't trust him completely. Something about fuzzy-faced rodents makes the fur on my back stand up. On the other hand, he hadn't thrown anything at me or my sister in a few days, and he did give me that really sweet Valentines card, so I handed him the list and he scurried off like his tail was on fire.

Well, you can imagine my horror when I was informed by Mr. LB that the lyrics I had submitted had been altered. It appears that no good Evil Squirrel changed some of the words before he submitted it. I marched right out to his tree and started barking to bring the little imp out of his hole. I ignored the fact that he had a little pair of red panties on his head when he peeked out. He told me that I had all those songs wrong, and that he had just corrected the lyrics to fit the way he had learned those songs. I guess squirrels listen to their own squirrely musicians. Sometimes, the world is a scary place.

Since I don't want to put Mr. LB through all the trouble to fix what his sleazy little partner messed up, I told him to just go ahead and post the lyrics as Evil had changed them. And since they are now his lyrics, you must give the title of the song as Evil knows it, which I imagine is actually the same as the titles us dogs and two footers all know with just one slight little word change. I think you will see how Evil Squirrel's mind works as you go through this game, which is quite a frightening thing to behold. And since I am such a good girl, I will even throw in an extra point if you fix the lyrics the way I originally had them.

1 point for the Evil Squirrel-altered title, 1 point for the artist, and 1 point for correcting the word or words Evil changed in the lyrics....

Love,
Annie

1. I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna brush your tail right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones

2. Take this pink duct tape off my eyes
I'm exposed and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me to hold your hand

3. Sometimes you're better off dead
There's a nut in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables

4. I was just a boy when I threw away my toys
And found a new critter to dwell on
Whenever I detects them there of the other sex
I play the game I do so well on

5. Saturday night and I need a fight
My motorcycle and a switchblade knife
Hand full of grease and my fur feels right
But what I need to make me tight are those

6. I've got so many apples
The dogs all fear me.
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees

7. And the red-furred girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

8. There's a wire
Ooh there's a wire in his mouth for you
Don't you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you

9. Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she scritches him again

10. What a sweet talkin' honey with a little bit of money can
turn your head around.
Creatures from the tree with the looks to me like she'd like to fool around

11. We asked for Mojo Vixen
They said "He don't work here"
We said "If you don't got Mojo Vixen
Then your store could use some fixin'

12. This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, acorn in hand
Lost my discretion

Okay, I'm hosed as far as fixing the lyrics goes, because that's where I'm the vaguest. You literally have to draw me a picture like the puzzle LS or I can't figure out the song....

11. We asked for Mojo Vixen
They said "He don't work here"

Nope

12. This was never the way I planned

Well, I'm not afraid to say it. Mr. LB is a pop cultural modernist bigot with no appreciation of musical history! He wouldn't recognize a work of enduring culture if it was wrapped around an apple and bonked him in the head! :twisted:

So ES, a little pair of red panties on your head? Really? Hmmm. 1.) Squirrels Just Wanna Have Fun--Cyndi Lauper, "live your life right", 2.) I'm Just A Squirrel--Gwen Stefani, 3.) West End Squirrels--Pet Shop Boys, "a gun in your hand", 7.) California Squirrels--Beach Boys/Van Halen,"Northern girls", 9.) Squirrels On Film--Duran Duran,.
Spoiler
Edited to add "Northern girls", which I realized I had forgotten, after looking over the other answers, but it is not cheating because I had it written down on my paper, but I had just forgotten to type it in. I am mediocre at best, at LS, and when one lacks a sense of humor, one cannot expect any JJC points, so I truly need all the points I can get!

1. I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna brush your tail right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
Spoiler
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun/Cindy Lauper
real lyrics say "My momma says when you gonna something; straighten up & fly right? a squirrel could do that too, actually. Rocky-Squirrel could.
2. Take this pink duct tape off my eyes
I'm exposed and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me to hold your hand

3. Sometimes you're better off dead
There's a nut in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
Spoiler
lb's best-buddies' anthem. Only they probably have guns in their hands in the real lyrics, but they are definitely holding on to their nuts, one way or another
4. I was just a boy when I threw away my toys
And found a new critter to dwell on
Whenever I detects them there of the other sex
I play the game I do so well on

5. Saturday night and I need a fight
My motorcycle and a switchblade knife
Hand full of grease and my fur feels right
But what I need to make me tight are those
Spoiler
Saturday Night's Just Right For Fighting/whoever did it; don't know song, don't know tune, remember creepy title; real lyrics prolly have skin, not fur
6. I've got so many apples
The dogs all fear me.
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
Spoiler
My Girl/The Drifters; real song goes:

"I've got so much honey
the bees envy me"

7. And the red-furred girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
Spoiler
California Girls/The Beachboys; real lyrics go
oh fooey I can't get the city; "those blanktown girls" etc; could it be Boston? how would I know?
8. There's a wire
Ooh there's a wire in his mouth for you
Don't you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you

9. Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she scritches him again
Spoiler
Katie whomever (of "I Kissed A Girl" fame) after her boyfriend gets through with her; apparently he does mind; its a cherry-chapstick reference, OK?
10. What a sweet talkin' honey with a little bit of money can
turn your head around.
Creatures from the tree with the looks to me like she'd like to fool around

11. We asked for Mojo Vixen
They said "He don't work here"
We said "If you don't got Mojo Vixen
Then your store could use some fixin'

12. This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, acorn in hand
Lost my discretion

1. I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna brush your tail right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
Squirrels Just Wanna Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper - "live your life"

2. Take this pink duct tape off my eyes
I'm exposed and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me to hold your hand
Just A Squirrel - No Doubt - "ribbon"

3. Sometimes you're better off dead
There's a nut in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
West End Squirrels - Pet Shop Boys - "gun"

4. I was just a boy when I threw away my toys
And found a new critter to dwell on
Whenever I detects them there of the other sex
I play the game I do so well on
Squirrel Watcher - The O'Kaysions - "pasttime"

5. Saturday night and I need a fight
My motorcycle and a switchblade knife
Hand full of grease and my furfeels right
But what I need to make me tight are those
Squirrels, Squirrels, Squirrels - Motley Crue - "hair"

6. I've got so many apples
The dogs all fear
me.
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
My Squirrel - Temptations - "much honey, the bees evny"

7. And the red-furred girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
California Squirrels - Beach Boys or David Lee Roth - "northern"

8. There's a wire
Ooh there's a wire in his mouth for you
Don't you know she still cries
Ooh do you know she still cries for you
Squirrel Can't Help It - Journey - "fire/fire in his eyes"

9. Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she scritches him again
Squirrels on Film - Duran Duran - "goes under"

10. What a sweet talkin' honey with a little bit of money can
turn your head around.
Creatures from the tree with the looks to me like she'd like to fool around
Beautiful Squirrels - Van Halen - "sea"

As much as I loved the concept of this game, I think allowing Annie to host it made it even better. Thank you Annie for you superb job of running the show for a day!


JJC Points:

Fanny got 2 JJC points for the Trinidad reference, even if it was at my expense....

mini gets 2 JJC points for another wonderful act of vagueness, and making me laugh while answering Katy Perry....

TLITF gets a JJC point for his Mojo Nixon tangent, even if he was thinking of the wrong David Lee Roth video (I think he's thinking of the video for Just Like Living in Paradise...)

Marley gets a JJC point for criticizing my taste in music, which is like me criticizing someone's taste in fashion.... :P

HSoB gets a JJC point for honesty since she rarely gets them for humor...

ghost may not be on of my "Best Buds", but if I bust out laughing at an answer I have to justly reward it, and hereby give ghost a supermax of 5 for her answer to #3...

TBone got 3 JJC points for Butthole Scritchers!

Clem gets no JJC points for failing to channelling his anger into humor, but calling me a bastard coated bastard with bastard filling is worth a token JJC at least, even if it is a reference from a show I don't watch....
