Nonsensical Musical Meme
Dec. 1st, 2008 04:05 pmI don't often do meme's but this one caught my eye. Made especially difficult cuz I had to skip the untranslated Japanese and instrumental songs.
Put your mp3 player on shuffle and write down the first lines of the first twenty songs, then post the poem that results. Also, to make it more like a poem, I've added words and punctuation. Because I just couldn't let it stand as is.
I can't stand to see it no more.
You're a real tough cookie with a long history,
All your dreams are made
(And) I'm down here waiting on a shattered heart.
(I'm) Waiting by the telephone
Let me catch you in my trap.
She's got her halo and wings
From the minute I turned and laid my eyes on you.
Baby, we can talk all night--
I'd give anything to give me to you.
How the hell we'd wind up like this?
(She's) Perfect by nature.
(I) Call you up in the middle of the night
(To) Give me a reason to believe you're gone.
I don't want to wonder if this is a blunder
(And) I like your pants around your feet.
If I told you that,
"Heaven can wait."
(Would) You stand before me?
I hear your heartbeat but you're never there.
