one more...

can I vote more than once?

Oh, yeah. This is America!



Of course I can...


Really the whole song "Our night to howl, time to go dancing" is funny, but this line particularly:

quote:
Our night to howl, time to go dancing
Brush your hair, clean your dentures
It's time for new adventures
My toupee's on and I'm ready for romancing


Big Grin

~Gus

(There's some other lyrics I think are pretty funny on "Songs of the Heart" and I'll post them as soon as I find them - so I can quote them correctly, ya know.)

By the way I also think "I had a bad experience with the cia and now I'm gonna show them my feminine side..." is pretty funny.

Oh, and sharkey is too.

Well, almost everything on Swirling Eddies CDs are funny.

  zip it up, lose the key!!

the whole song is frigging obnoxious, but i'll nominate

"Lately there's a lady who's lurking about"

as pie hole's funniest line
because of the goofy way terry sings "laaady" and because "lurking" sounds so (inappropriately) sinister











muah-ha-ha-ha........!

a spinning sucking whirlpool of movie going, rock
'n' rolling beer
drinking, smoking, drug infested pornos
porno people
yeah we're the porno people
swooning and swirling and spinning


Cool

Little birds are helpless way up in the tree
They cry for mother almost constantly
But little birds must one day take their wing
I told her this she threw her rattle at me

"Baby Game"



Posted by Gamgee on 06-25-2002 at17:10:

 

"Gloves for the amputees, they can't cheer you"

I may be sick, but that line never fails to make me laugh.



Posted by Beat Menace on 06-25-2002 at17:49:

 

But I can't write about a two-timin' life
Like some of them superstars can
I may not have a hit but in spite of it,
I'm a happily married man

He will always trust his own vision
Could be a dangerous man
He's guided by no one
Attracted to the sound
Of the interior voices
He will not listen hard enough
To any other man


I have this qout of TST up on my wall at home. I have some sort of connection with this one, I'm not sure why.

there is some great lines on AF

"hope she only knows I only turned out half bad"

"not the kid in the corner with the big pair of pants"

"get tanned so they look good when their beating up drifters & gays"

"hilary loves bubba, ben franklin loved kites."

I beat each song has great lines on them.
it's hard to think of them all they are so many, much less write them down.

this isn't all that funny, but I like it for some reason...


I won't go back to Bakersfield
My friend died there, I loved him too much
Wrinkled young men are shuffling along like
dirty grey ghosts wearing fitted soiled sheets
on a wet mirage street
looking for green gangrenous feet
that will lead them to liquor stores
or unemployment offices
grunt work and whores
or unenjoyment offices
In the morning they gurgle out of
spoiled rancid visions and cabbage pods

AF will make me tear up every time Crying

She kicks the dust up
It's seeping out of my skin
I'm good with bad luck

I die
She shrugs
New high
Same drugs

She's a slow leak
And she loves to watch me sputter and sink

You like wearing women's clothes

Nice. Pleased

  May I add my 2 cents?

I like all your thoughts, here are mine.

Our Night to Howl, Time To Go Dancing

The cows come home
when I see you in your moo-moo
You're the apple in my strudel,
The kit in my kaboodle

and of course

We'll teach those young punks
Just what class is
Honey, you still
Fog my glasses

Bibleland

Midgets dressed up as Peter and Paul
a Christian rock band by the wailing wall
that Goliath guy makes us feel so small!
takes a half an hour just to see it all
It's Bibleland
A river of life and a pit of doom
Noah's arcade and an upper room
Canoes cross the Jordan, there's an empty tomb
and three shows daily starring Debby Boone
in Bibleland

Instruction Through Film

Narrator on film:
Tom knows that proper grooming
is the by-product of a healthy attitude and high
moral fiber. Tom likes people, and people like Tom."

Lil' Bonus Room

So, show me to your pets, or show me to your pals.
You really will impress every nifty guy and gal.
Show them you are individual, show them you are BOLD!
Besides, I get residuals for every game that's sold.

and one from Jerry

Little crosses- It's such a wonderful world
I'm so lucky- I get a little cross with my girl

  night to howl

Greetings,

From "Our Night to Howl" on the "Songs of the Heart" project:

Bud says to Irma
"(Let's) show those young punks
just what class is.
Honey you still
fog my glasses."

That one's a side-splitter, especially for a four-eyed husband like myself. (sidenote: Next week I'm going to get glasses; and then everyone will start calling me "eight-eyes". ba-da-bing!!!)

Take care,
Jim

Needless to day, TST can write a beautiful, twisted, thoughtful, funny line/verse/song rolled up into one making some of his songs go supernova. Here are some of my favorite funny lines/verses:

Doppelganger: Autographs for the sick
Autographs for the sick, they want to touch you
Monogrammed polygraph kit, she wants to buy two
She's warning all her children of the horrors of rock'n roll
You're a bonfire lover counting dollars in the afterglow

Motorcycle: Trapes, Ensnare
Na, Na, Na beware of traps and snares
Mr. Spoke speaks, deadly nightshade
In his brainpan
Mock aliens breed silent blond zeros of
Fresh young flesh
Ignore the ghosts of books, they're getting
Plastered in Paris
Della wears tupperware, and
Major-Domo's body politicking in
Limo Land

Bibleland: Bakersfield (Don't think the Bakerfield's Chamber of Commerce will be using this one!!!)
Wrinkled young men are shuffling along like
dirty grey ghosts wearing fitted soiled sheets
on a wet mirage street
looking for green gangrenous feet
that will lead them to liquor stores
or unemployment offices
grunt work and whores
or unenjoyment offices
In the morning they gurgle out of
spoiled rancid visions and cabbage pods…
….These down-payment dreamers
of small flat-roofed houses
and harsh vacant lots full of milkweed and dust
stinkbugs and rust
animal excrement

I know...it was supposed to be a line.




Posted by Slamhound on 07-12-2002 at00:19:

 

May not be the funiest line but I love some of the backing vocals from "Multipurpose Man" - Zoom Daddy

Who would have thought that "bu bu boing" could have been used anywhere but a cartoon?
