Having Fun with Songs by Making Your Own Lyrics

Post by EarlJam » October 28th, 2010, 1:46 pm

I enjoy doing this. For instance, instead of singing, "God bless Texas," I enjoy singing, "God bless Chex Mix." Try it. It is fun!

Also, it is fun to replace the word "you" in a song with another word that rhymes with it.....such as "shoes." So suddenly you get lyrics like...

"I'm saving all my love for shoes."
"I want shoes, I need shoes, but there ain't no way, I'm ever gonna get shoes."
"One way, or another, I'm gonna find shoes. I'm gonna get shoes, get shoes, get shoes, get shoes,....one way...."


Does anyone else do this? I want a sandwich.

I don't do this on purpose. However, I do agree with the line above - "One way, or another, I'm gonna find shoes. I'm gonna get shoes, get shoes, get shoes, ....one way...."

I love shoes!
Life is good!

Substitute "drugs" for "love" ("The Drug Boat soon will be making another run! The Drug Boat promises something for everyone!")
and probably less politically correct, substitute "Mormon" for "woman" ("It's the honky tonk Mormons, gimme the honky tonk blues.")

Morman, I can hardly express,
My mixed emotion at my thoughtlessness,
After all I'm forever in your debt,
And Morman, I will try express,
My inner feelings and thankfullness,
For showing me the meaning of succsess,
oooh well, well,
oooh well, well,

Morman, I know you understand
The little child inside the man,
Please remember my life is in your hands,
And Morman hold me close to your heart,
However, distant don't keep us apart,
After all it is written in the stars,
oooh well, well,
oooh well, well,
