Lyrically Speaking 2022 - Day 6
July 4, 2022
Merryman Monday
I KNOW THIS IS A LYRICS CHALLENGE, BUT SOMETIMES VOCALISTS (AND ACTORS) GET A LITTLE CARRIED AWAY. SOMETIMES WE CAN'T HELP OURSELVES AND IT APPEARS THAT WE ARE SHOUTING OR SCREAMING. BELOW ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF SONGS WITH SOME, LET'S SAY, EXAGGERATED VOCALS.
THEY ARE IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER BECAUSE I'M OUT OF ORDER, YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER AND THIS WHOLE CHALLENGE IS OUT OF ORDER.
1 POINT FOR THE TITLE, 1 POINT FOR THE ARTIST
1. Rape, murder, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
2. I want you to know
I said I want you to know right now, yeah
You've been good to me, baby
Better than I've been to myself
3. Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
4. But each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain
But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again
5. Half my life's in books' written pages
Storing facts learned from fools and from sages
You view the earth
6. You know I can't stand it
You're running around
You know better daddy
I can't stand it 'cause you put me down
Oh, no
7. I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half-alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie
8. Tell me, tell me, tell me your answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
9. The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
10. If you hunger for what you see
you'll take it eventually
You can have everything you want
but you better not take it from me
11. Yes, I'm in a bang
With a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
12. Momma, poppa told me
"Son, you better watch your step."
If they knew poppa's momma
I have to watch my pa myself
KROXQUO BONUS: NAME ANOTHER SONG WITH ARTIST THAT CONTAINS SOME
SCREAMING/SHOUTING/EXAGGERATED VOCALS.
IMAGE BONUS: SAY OUT LOUD, "I'M JUST GETTING STARTED," AND SHOW ME AN
APPROPRIATE IMAGE FOR THIS CHALLENGE.
