| 184.1 | One of my favorites... | LYMPH::LAMBERT | Sam Lambert | Fri May 09 1986 14:21 | 15 |
| Not an original, but heard on the radio yesterday:
"Got a little French friend
She's named Croissant
She's very classy but a Danish she's not"
"I'm a Danish, I'm a Danish
I'm a Danish
I'm a Danish, I'm a Danish
Go on and eat me I'm a Danish."
Sung to the tune of "Amadeaus", by Falco.

"I won't be your pizza burnin'..."

| I've been doing 'em for decades, too... Just this morning, I gave
forth with a rousing chorus of "It's my life and I'll do what I want;
I'm Barney Fife and I'll arrest who I want."
My college band did covers of David Bowie's "All the Young Dudes" and
the Stones' "I Am Waiting" with completely new lyrics 'cause I couldn't
stand singing the original ones.
It's an old rock tradition to make up words to existing music.
Supposedly, Lou Reed could invent dozens of verses in concert. My
favorite example is the live "Louie Louie" on "Metallic K.O." by Iggy
and the Stooges. Y'know how everyone thought the Kingsmen version had
dirty lyrics because they were mumbled so badly? Iggy managed to come
up with genuinely dirty lyrics that sound almost exactly like the
mumbling. (Lyrics available by mail to the scholar. (: >,)

| I always liked Bruce Springsteen's " Born in the U.S. Mail" 8^)
It's an intresting concept.

| Revivifying a dead thread, my wife was recently listening to a video of
an Abba concert, when they got round to their song with the lyric
"Take your teeth out, you and I know...."

time. ABBA??
