SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!
The Song Challenge: Love
And Spots!! Well, Challenge!rs -- Spring has sprung for most of us, and of course, at this time of year, every species experiences a little flutter of the heart and then, well, instinct takes over...
Perhaps inspired by his own 'instincts', our own Hyperabid has suggested the Challenge! topic of "first crushes and the opposite sex moving from pain in the *rse to "Why has God blessed me with a sex drive and acne at the same time!??".
An excellent and timely suggestion. So, there you go Challenge!rs -- Songs about 'your first love and/or crush'.
Now I know we've all gone through this -- let's see what you can put to a tune!.
Stairway to Heaven by Trowser Zeppelin (a/k/a Jack the Sailor)
(Tune: Stairway to Heaven)
Trowser's Comments: Ah the Lion's club teen dances. All the boys leaning against the wall. All the girls
parading by.... until the end of the evening when they play "Stairway to Heaven"
There's a story I hold that just begs to be told
About dancing to stairway to heaven
As I tell it I'm sure that the plot will unfold
With these words I do hope you won't be bored
Oh_oh__Oh oh ooh__
We were dancing to Stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall "Don't spit gum on the floor"
Cause you know we have trouble with cleaning
In a nook by the door a canteen that sells things
Most time none of the fellows are dancing
Oh___ it makes me wonder
Oh___ it really makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get when I look at her breast
and my hormones are heaving and raging
By the bus I have seen some kids that smoke as they please
and hear voices of boys who stand looking
Oh___ it makes me wonder
Oh___ it really makes me wonder
A request, and it's soon, for another fast tune
then the drummer will keep a loud rythm
And new guy will dance and he does it all wrong
While the rest all will taunt him with laughter
If theres a boner in your Levis dont be alarmed now
You are just horny for the prom queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by when you walk home
There's still time to ask her along
Your head is pounding and she wont go, that's if you dont know
That she is calling you to join her
Dear lady can you dance here so slow and did you know
your hairdo moves on the whispering wind
And as we walk on down the road
We find a grassy place to go
There walks her father we should know
Who shines flash light and wants to know
What we are doing in the cold
And if you wait until the spring
Your curfew will be up at last at last
We were alone and had a ball
We dance to rock so we can roll (in the hay)
We were dancing to Stairway to Heaven
