allright, I stole the idea of making some lyrics from someone at the PT forum because it's so bloody original. I start with a stereotypical line and if you want you can add a line yourself and directing the song into another direction. I don't think all the lyrics have to be of the 'dungeons and dragon' type, but you can make this as absurd, funny or serious as you want. Let's see if it works...
In my dreams, I find myself sailing across the universe ...
good luck

Ok, since Rust posted a poem of his, I'll do the same for one of mine. The original lyrics are in German, but I translated them into English (which is not an easy task for poems, if you want them to rhyme again). I'll post both versions, the German and the English one, so anyone who understands both languages can compare the two versions. Die Zeit Eilig vorwärtshastend, Ruh'los, niemals rastend Unaufhaltsam, stur. Werd' ich je erfahren Was seit vielen Jahren Zeigt mir meine Uhr? "Gleichmäßig läufst du Stück für Stück, Und nimmer kehrest du zurück. Du scheinst mal langsam, scheinst mal schnell, Ruhst scheinbar aus dich auf der Stell'. Ist alles die nur Täuschung, Zeit? Sag, was bist du in Wirklichkeit? So seufzt' ich oft in mancher Stund', Und endlich tat die Zeit mir kund: "Ich" sprach sie "bin, was existiert, Wenn nichts mehr auf der Welt passiert. Wenn endlich an dem Jüngsten Tag Das Weltall birst mit einem Schlag Und alles ringsumher ist Leee, So bin noch immer ich!" "Das wäre...!" Rief ich vergeblich, denn soeben Entschwand die Zeit. So ist das Leben. Nun steh' ich hier und weiss es kaum, Ob es die Wahrheit, ob es Traum Gewesen, was ich da vernommen. Die Zeit? Sie wird nie wiederkommen. Eilig vorwärtshastend, Ruh'los, niemals rastend Unaufhaltsam, stur. Werd' ich je erfahren Was seit vielen Jahren Zeigt mir meine Uhr? And now the translated version: Time Hastily racing, Steadily pacing Headstrong without match. Will ever I know Whatever does show Upon my wristwatch? "You run steadfastly on your track, And never ever you turn back. Now you seem slow, now seem to pace Now seem to stand still in one place. Is all of this illusion, time? Pray, what's your reason and your rhyme?" Thus I in many hours sighed, And finally the time replied: "I", spake it, "am, what will be there, When nothing happens anywhere. When finally on Judgement Day The universe will fast decay And everything around is naught, Then I will still be there". "That ought..." I cried in vain, for disappeared The time just had, as I had feared. Now here I stand, and I can't seem To tell if this has been a dream Or real, what I have just been told. The time? Will nevermore unfold. Hastily racing, Steadily pacing Headstrong without match. Will ever I know Whatever does show Upon my wristwatch? I think the translation is quite accurate and captures the spirit of the original poem. ------------- BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

CHORUS: Stardust will drug my senses for a million years Black holes make me see without knowing Will this cosmis trip end up in tears? Or is there a comet that'll save me from dying? Vanity, vanity, all is vanity, Drifting somewhere between boredom and ecstasy. Five men walking down the marble steps... They carry the weight of many lobotimized souls They're in the surrealistic heaven Count their fingers, they are eleven! It's true, as sure as eggs is eggs, Remember the one between their legs! And don't forget to tap those kegs Wrought from the souls of the priests of Abazagorath The artificial savior rises from the grave To reap the seeds of the man he has made The Psycholords gather and the wind forms anew- All watching all knowing all seeing -KAIRAHN DUHRE-
I think that in this moment Chorus would be suitable, and the next canto could begin like that:
But who am I to judge what is wrong and what is right Since what we worship is nothing but monolith spiked

Sorry, that I haven't quoted the poems posted here but they look like could act as single masterpieces. Another issue is that maybe we should ask some prog band to make music for these lyrics. I suggest IQ. ------------- yet you still have time! |

In my dreams, I find myself sailing across the universe the vanity of my abduction has made me dis-purse the strain of commitment to the Vegetable Vow strange things happened to me, feels like im going to burst Still I continue searching for my stolen chemical wrench In the timeless space between the stars living acid I am, going through every sense Spiraling down in a supernova I still feel... the stench! But never feeling, totally numb, lost in my mind Though I still can say: "Scr*w you and your kind" Spiraling down and down, breaching the core of my sanity... f*ck! A big and well-loved carrot in psychedelic colors appears in total darkness Holding The Book of Eternal Soup Kitchen Recipe under one arm And a block of hot plasma ice contained in a poodles forearm...on the other He raises his hand and says...In the power vested in me I pronounce you!! King of The Universal Brotherhood of Feline leftovers!!! As I gaze on the Almighty Carrot whose name is insanely vague!! My life is over!!! I made a left turn so I can go and fix my emotional supper.....
(haha!!!) ------------- The World is a Big Ball!!! |
