Name That Tune!

[Guest diamondback688]

my lyrics are further up the forth page...i already submitted some...and i gave my clue to go with the 24 hour rule also...

[Guest diamondback688]

ok...since no one has gotton my song or artist name ive decided to sebd in new lyrics...and here they r...

You're wondering who I am-machine or mannequin

With parts made in Japan, I am the modren man

I've got a secret I've been hiding under my skin

My heart is human, my blood is boiling, my brain I.B.M.

So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised

I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide

To keep me alive-just keep me alive

Somewhere to hide to keep me alive

and if any1 is curious about my hard lyrics the band is Evanescence and the song is Bring Me To Life....

[Rhezz]

evanescene *puke*

ok heres one. easy.

Well you;ve got me working so hard lately

working my hands until they bleed

If i was twice the man i could be

i still be half of what you need

[guitar_a_goo_goo_ga]

not off the top of my head do i know this

i have herd this song before

not in a while at least

even though it rings many bells

i may know it more than i think

not that it matters

chances are someone will get it

hence me not giving a clue

no way will i contribute

and i stand by my words

i wont give a hint

less i am bribed perhaps

so, anyone know it?

[baby-dandan]

Here's one;

Daddy was a bank robber

but he never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

and he loved to steal your money

Some is rich and some is poor

thats the way the world is

but I don't believe in lying back

and saying how bad your luck is

I don't know if those verses are in order, but that's some of it that I remember.

[Guest diamondback688]

"Bank Robber" -- The Clash

Try this:

Don't think sorry's easily said

Don't try turning tables instead

You've taken lots of Chances before

But I'm not gonna give anymore

Don't ask me

That's how it goes

Cause part of me knows what you're thinkin'

Don't say words you're gonna regret

Don't let the fire rush to your head

I've heard the accusation before

And I ain't gonna take any more

Believe me

The sun in your Eyes

Made some of the lies worth believing

[baby-dandan]

Good job Diamondback! Now here's one for the punk rockers out there!

20, 20 ,24 hours to go, I wanna be sedated

Nothing to do, nowhere to go, I wanna be sedated

just put me in a wheel chair, and get me on a plane

hurry, hurry, hurry before I go insane

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain

Oh no, oh, oh, oh, oh!

I may have made that too easy! I could resight that whole song, but that would be to lengthy. Sorry Diamondback, I don't know yours.

[Guest diamondback688]

ive heard this song a couple of times...its been awhile, but i think its The Ramones...dont know the name of the song...

[Tuxedo Oryx]

Good job Diamondback! Now here's one for the punk rockers out there!

20, 20 ,24 hours to go, I wanna be sedated

Nothing to do, nowhere to go, I wanna be sedated

just put me in a wheel chair, and get me on a plane

hurry, hurry, hurry before I go insane

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain

Oh no, oh, oh, oh, oh!

It's "I Wanna Be Sedated" by The Ramones.

[DollyDiaper]

Thanks for putting me out of my agony Tux I know this track but I'm hopeless at remembering titles.

You forgot to post your own lyrics for us to guess (or not, in my case). )

D lly

[Tuxedo Oryx]

Okay, this might be tricky to identify:

I live it to the matter

want it to be better.

I can only fake it

when I am sitting naked

on the floor. I wonder what I would be doing

if there weren't four walls.

I'm sitting in the box and watching it all talk

and making up all my minds up is it finally times up

no matter what the facts are, it is anti-matter.

I'm waking up and blind.

(4X) I'm feeling like a dog.

You're wondering who I am-machine or mannequin

With parts made in Japan, I am the modren man

I've got a secret I've been hiding under my skin

My heart is human, my blood is boiling, my brain I.B.M.

So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised

I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide

To keep me alive-just keep me alive

Somewhere to hide to keep me alive

And that one's "Mr. Roboto" by The Styx.

[Guest diamondback688]

its just Styx, not The Styx...

and im pretty sure thats Nirvana...am i right?

[Tuxedo Oryx]

Nope, not Nirvana.

[diaperwerx]

The answer is Lemora at least according to my memory...err google....that is.

How about this one:

You see everything, you see every part

You see all my light and you love my dark

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can’t relate

And you’re still here

That should be easy for you guys!!!!

[DollyDiaper]

The answer is Lemora at least according to my memory...err google....that is.

Err........I know it's a long time ago now but someone decided this thread was worth CPR - I did say nicely right at the start, no cheating, i.e. no Googling please!

What's the point of the game otherwise?

D lly

[Guest diamondback688]

is it Alanis Morisette?

[DiaperedRacer]

It is

try this one on for size:

I will devour you

Take all the pain away

I cannot stay my hand

From reaching out so that I can

Empower you

For all eternity

It seems to ease my mind

To know that you've brought

Meaning to my life

hope this ain't too crazy for ya

[Guest diamondback688]

im pretty sure thats Disturbed...try this one:

I don't wanna hear about it anymore

It's a shame I've got to live without you anymore

There's a fire in my heart

A pounding in my brain

It's driving me crazy

We don't need to talk about it anymore

Yesterday's just a memory

Can we close the door

I just made one mistake

I didn't know what to say when you called me baby

[kilkenny90]

Damn Yankees

[baby-dandan]

Hey pipsqueak,

I've heard another version of that song sung by the band Save Ferris. I don't know if you've ever heard of them. They are a Ska band, which is a mix between big band music and punk music.

Here's another:

Once apon a time there was an engineer

He drove a locomotive both far and near

Acompanied by a monkey who would sit on a stool watching everything the engineer would move

One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat

He left the monkey sitting in the drivers seat

Monkey pulled the throttle, locomotive jumped the gun, and did 90 miles an hours down the main line run

Big locomotive right on time

Big locomotive running down the line

Big locomotive number 99, left the engineer with a worried mind

[baby-dandan]

Ok, what's the deal. No one even tried on my last one. It's been long enough that I think I will tell you. It's called "The Monkey and the Engineer" by the Greatful Dead. That's quite a clever title I think! Now for one that someone's bound to guess:

Driving my train, high on cocain,

Casey Jones you better watch your speed!

What in the world ever became of sweet jane?

She lost her sparkle you know she isn't the same.

Living on reds, vitamin C, and cocain.

All a friend can say is ain't it a shame!

Sitting and starring out of my hotel window.

gotta think their gonna kick the door in again.

I'd like to get some sleep before I travel,

but if you've got a warrent I guess your gonna come in!

[ChrisKnight]

Dandan are you a deadhead?

[baby-dandan]

You pinned me down on that one, Chris! I am a dead head! I am also a led head (fan of Led Zepplin). I am a big punk fan but when I want to "mellow out" I listen to "The Dead", Led Zepplin and The Rolling Stones. "He taught me that Styx was the greatest rock band ever, and they only got a bad rap because most critics are sinical assholes!" I know this isn't name that movie but I just had to throw that in reffering to Styx.

Well, let's keep this going! Try this, it's from a concert I just went to;

I saw a man get the big dance,

they took his money

and his wallet and he fell dead on the ground

I saw toghther they celebrate the crime

teacher tried to teach us a lesson on man kind

I raised my hand I got another guestion

If I start a riot will I get protection?

cause I'm a kid who's got alot of problems

if I throw a brick maybe the brick will go and solve them!

Well, that's a punk song I'll give you that, and alot of times punk songs aren't the easiest to understand, but have at it!

[ChrisKnight]

I saw a man get the big dance,

they took his money

and his wallet and he fell dead on the ground

OMG! I totally know those lines

I wanna say Bad Religion but I don't think it's them, and it's too old to be Less Than Jake.

Ummmm......

The Ramones?

I got it while I was in the shower this morning because I actually have the track in my CD collection
