Lyrically Speaking (a word game)

The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with all the other pigs
 
Now in darkness world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees the war pig's crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan laughing spreads his wings
Oh lord yeah!
 
Now in darkness world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees the war pig's crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan laughing spreads his wings
Oh lord yeah!

I was lyin' in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes
I was hopin' for replacement
When the sun burst though the sky
There was a band playin' in my head
And I felt like getting high
I was thinkin' about what a friend had said
I was hopin' it was a lie
Thinkin' about what a friend had said
I was hopin' it was a lie
 
But tell me
did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way
to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?

Tell me
did you fall from a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were
looking for yourself out there?
 
Maybe I'm jaded and bored
Always lookin' for more
Waiting around for the next big fix
I know
I'm a wreck I'm a mess
But I couldn't care less
Don't know what it would take to change me
Every body is so afraid to be different
Please excuse me now if I don't get it
I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
Designer drugs and dead end jobs and
Classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy and all the things it's done to me
How can I be satisfied when everything is overrated?
 
How can I be satisfied when everything is overrated?

When I'm ridin' 'round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl, who tells me
Baby, better come back maybe next week
Can't you see I'm on a losing streak?
I can't get no, oh, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
That's what I say, I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction, no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction
I can't get no
 
Can't you see I'm on a losing streak?

In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins so I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
Baby's in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches sleep on the love seat

Someone keeps sayin' I'm insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don't believe everything that you read
You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve
So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Savin' all your food stamps and burnin' down the trailer park

Yo, cut it
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me? (double barrel buckshot)

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
 
Hey little sister, who is it you're with?
Hey little sister, what's your vice or wish?
Hey little sister, shotgun, oh yeah
Hey little sister, who's your superman?
Hey little sister, shotgun!

It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again

Pick it up!
Take me back home, yeah
 
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Married
Married
Married
Buried yeah yeah yeah
 
When I'm out walking
I strut my stuff
And I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite
I just might stop to check you out

Let me go on like I
Blister in the sun
Let me go on
Big hands, I know you're the one
 
She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine AM
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
 
WTF is the connection between, Buried, Sun & high-as a kite ? Or have I interrupted a circle jerk?

Or is death a taboo? Fuck that white-wash.
 
The bold words don't necessarily have to connect to each other. The bold words are bold because they are what connects the new post to the previous one. (nothing has to be bolded it's just a helpful indicator)

That's how I understood it but maybe I've been wrong all this time
 
That clearly makes no sense - how do the words connect? I fail to see how they do - maybe you can explain; if it makes sense you can articulate how, here?

Your explanation makes no fucking sense whatsoever ( no personal offense, mind but that is the most idiotic, response I could try to imagine).
You're a moderator, right?
Can you moderate, or bring any structure to the forum or, are what is your role?

My role is to moderate the forums I moderate. They're listed right there under my username.

What I said makes perfect sense. No need to get so triggered over nothing. I'm not your punching bag whatever your excuse might be, so please check yourself next time you feel like flipping out.
 
How does it make 'perfect' sense - can you explain?
Without an explanation, what you are saying has no merit. Be rational about this and explain.

( I apologise for the insults; that was uncalled for) but you need to explain what you are saying; otherwise it is not a rational answer to my issue - which is, how are they connected?

Actually, I thought ya'll had a great stream of replies, as they fit the intent and rules of the 'game'. To review, we do tend to lean on using a bold of words to help show the connection from one set of lyrics to the next.:

In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
Married
Married
Married
Buried yeah yeah yeah

This built on the "White Wedding" of the previous post, using the 'Married' to show the connection to those words.

When I'm out walking
I strut my stuff
And I'm so strung out
I'm high as a kite
I just might stop to check you out

Let me go on like I
Blister in the sun
Let me go on
Big hands, I know you're the one

This built upon the "In the sun I feel as one, In the sun" lyrics, connected to the "Blister in the sun" quite nicely.

Zero hour nine AM

I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space

'Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man

Whereas this took the "high as a kite" and found another set of lyrics to which reflected those words or that image.

All in all, well done by everyone, IMO.

We can all just take it down a few notches. I'll admit, in kicking this off I wasn't quite sure how to convey the 'rules' nor how they would actually function. It has been a learning experience along the way for us, and open to different interpretations (or an occasional off the wall quote from an unrelated song). Meh, we move on and try to nudge each other in a direction that we collectively agree makes sense without being too rigid about 'a game'.

As to the back and forth about mod duties and a friendlier staff...we ran out of free love-drugs for our staff a long time ago. Now, their just regular members like anyone else, but have volunteered for no pay to help police and clean up the messes when they occur, and to help out the members when they can by answering questions or pointing them to the right informaion if it is already available. In general, if someone feels like staff isn't doing a good job, they can @ someone from Sr. Staff to help talk about it, or start a PM with them, or even use our [email protected] address. We encourage staff to always be friendly and polite, but recognize that they are volunteers with good days and bad days just like everyone else, and aren't paid (or on prison leave) to answer every question that arises.

It should also be noted, that what may be obvious to one person, may not be obvious to another. If an explanation doesn't quite clear things up, there are lots of other staff (and members!) around to help offer alternate answers in an effort to get everyone aligned. None of which is a reason for anyone to get upset or antagonistic, just give it time for someone else to come along and help out (or contact a sr. staff member as outlined above!). Cheers.
 
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Till touch down brings me round again to find

Four, three, two, one
Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating, weightless
Calling, calling home

Across the stratosphere
A final message, "Give my wife my love"
Then nothing more

Far beneath the ship, the world is mourning
They don't realize, he's alive
No one understands but Major Tom sees
Now the light commands, this is my home

I'm coming home
Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating, weightless
Coming home

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating, weightless
Coming home
 
Here comes the four to the three, to the two
She stay feelin' on my Johnson, right out the blue
Girl you super thick so I'm thinkin' thats cool
But instead of one life hat, I need two
Her eyes got big when she glanced at my jewels
Expression on her face like she ain't got a clue
Then she told me she don't run wit' the crew
You know how I do but that's just what I gotta do

Everybody in the club gettin' tipsy
(Everybody in the club gettin' tipsy)
