Woolton Church you say?
Yeah? What? So?
Maybe it's tha pot ya piss in
At tha enda your happy rainbow?!!

Woolton Church, what's that?
A refuge for the poor?
Poor mindless Christian bastard
On ya knees like some fuckin' whore!!

Woolton Church? U.K?
Na, it's not where we live.
We're ov'r here trippin' on junkies
And steppin' in their shit!!!

Woolton Church????
Don't need that hype 'round here.
While your learnin' ya book myths
We'll be practicin' tha art of fear.


.....ahh, the sweet misty remembrances of youth.:)
 
I know what you mean...

I used to write stuff with that degree of anger, man. Sure glad I got over it. Some titles..."VERTICAL HAIR AND A BAD ATTITUDE
"f*^#! THE PIG BASTARDS"
"I NEVER LIKED YOUR MAMA ANYWAY"
etc..etc...etc.

If we ain't gettin better, we're gettin worse

Chazba,

You gave me an idea for a song title from one of your old ones.
How bout' "BAD HAIR AND A VERTICAL ATTITUDE".

Okay,...... I know. Shut up George.

<><
George
 
VERTICALATTITUDE

I love it George....can't wait to hear the mp3

This looked intriguing, so I thought I would give it a shot. I think this is more of a "singers" song, in that would sound a lot better than it looks or reads. But it's a little hard to convey style, melody and rhythm through good 'ol ascii!

-verse-
I had grown up thinkin' I knew it all
Once I got on my own, it'll all be good
But how I re-alized that someone was guiding my way
to the alter of my neighborhood church last sunday!

-chorus-
This day is just a normal day
But inside of me it seems something's different
Cause I feel like the suns shinin' a bit more this mornin'
Then it did before, then it before!!..

-verse-
As I shook the hand of the man that wore the suit
I just couldn't help but wonder
did he know of the change that I felt inside
or is it just my imagination on overdrive?

-chorus-
This day is just a normal day
But inside of me it seems something's different
Cause I feel like the suns shinin' a bit more this mornin'
Then it did before, then it before!!..

-verse-
Now older and wiser ..I think back
to that church in Woolton at that altar
And I wonder what would have been of my life
if it wasn't for...those big oak doors

-bridge (or little soft rock ballad to lead up to last chorus)-
'cause at woolton church they say, that Jesus is the way
and if it wasn't for, that man on the stage
sayin' "He's the way...ohhh He's the way!!"
I know that

-chorus-
This day is just a normal day
But inside of me it seems something's different
Cause I feel like the suns shinin' a bit more this mornin'
Then it did before, then it before!!..
 
Cris V ..Good job your story had a nice flow!Liked your use of a bridge section...

VERTICALATTITUDE

Chazba,

Gotta nice ring to it. Actually it says a lot.

<><
George
 
chrisv....very nice job...I can sorta hear what I would sing but I'm sure you have something cool in mind.

george....actually two band names...."BAD HAIR" or as we would have said in earlier times "THE BAD HAIRS" how'bout "BAD HARES". VERTICALATTITUDE can't be improved upon. Thanks for thinking that one up :)
 
chazba,

If I'm not mistakin', we've just collaborated.

This is my Woolton's Church

If i could bring back one sweet memory
A special place and time only my heart can see
A very loving face
With all it's goodness and grace
The voice of my father playing bass

I can still hear the way he used to sing
The gospel of the Lord and all the bells would ring
So perfectly in tune
Like the tide of seas and the moon
The voice of my father playing bass

Oh how we would gather our souls for what they were worth
In that peaceful haven called Woolton's church
And how my father's deep voice would climb
The rafters of that long lost time
Up in that loft would my soul end it's search
In that peaceful haven called Woolton's church

Now my dear father his soul lays at rest
In the sleeping ground like a sacred nest
And i wait for the time and the place
When once again i see his loving face
And hear the voice of my father playing bass

Oh how we would gather our souls for what they were worth
In that peaceful haven called Woolton's church
And how my father's deep voice would climb
The rafters of that long lost time
Up in that loft would my soul end it's search
In that peaceful haven called Woolton's church

Langley T.......Nice job..You got a pretty tight rhyming pattern!


Don
 
Thanks Henri! I think everyone here has done a fantastic job. I truly enjoyed reading everyones lyrics, and i see a lot of talent.

..BUMP..There seems to be a lot new folks here , this is a fun way to communicate song expression anyone care to give it a go?

Don
 
OK...I know that I'm a dog for doing this but I couldn't resist. I actually ran the theme through the "Alanis Morissette Song Generator."

For those of you interested:

The following is the best result. Now the big question...is there any room for a "song generator?" Gosh I can hear Alanis singing this now....:rolleyes:

"Will to Live"

I feel miserable
Hard pews make me ill
I feel miserable
Dirty windows tear at my foundations
I feel miserable
Smelly people are dragging me down to the depths of misery
I want to die

Is it because of Woolton Church that I feel this way?
With the grey rays of misery pounding on my brain?
Or am I lost in tale of tennyson, adrift far from home
I don't think so, I don't think so.

Alice Broke My Will to Live
Alice Broke My Will to Live
Alice Broke My Will to Live
I was getting better but then
Alice Broke My Will to Live

I feel miserable
Dead flowers on the altar rot the flesh from my bones
I feel miserable
Insincere words defeat my purpose
I feel miserable
Fake smiles are doing their best to impale my soul
I want to die

Is it because of Woolton Church that I feel this way?
With the grey rays of misery pounding on my brain?
Am I lost in tale of tennyson, adrift far from home
I don't think so, I don't think so.

Alice Broke My Will to Live
Alice Broke My Will to Live
Oh God, alice Broke My Will to Live
I was getting better but then
Alice Broke My Will to Live
 
Gosh darn it! I was about to hit the hay before I saw this thread..... Grrrr! Why did it have to be such a good idea?

(30 minutes later) Here's what came to me.
------------------------------------------------------
"Woolton Street"

(Verse)
I saw a sign there the other day
I had to turn my eyes away
And think of something else to say
Than what came to my mind

It doesn’t seem that long ago
That every weekend I would go
To a secret place no one could know
To see what I could find.

(Change)
So many treasures there were hidden
A mystery for every answer given
No sense of time
to hold my mind
Where nothing is forgiven

(Chorus)
Even now- who understands?
Even now- it hurts
And when they ask me where I went
I still say “Woolton Church”

(Verse)
A cathedral of red cedar trees
A stream bank for a balcony
And everything that I could see
Told of things I couldn’t

No one knew what happened there
No one knew how much I cared
No one knew that I was scared
That I knew things I shouldn’t

(Change)
So many treasures there were hidden
And lost to those with no vision
To those for whom
there is no womb
And nothing is forbidden.

(Chorus)
Even now- I still remember.
Even now- It hurts
And when I think of what was here
I still miss “Woolton Church”

(Ending)
I saw a sign there the other day
Amidst the lawns were children play
And their parents work their lives away
A sign that said “For Sale”
-----------------------------------------------------

Once I got the gist of the thread I stopped reading so I wouldn't be skewed by what you guys had already written. I'll go back and read 'em tomorrow or sunday.

OK, now I can go to bed. G'night.
Chris
 
Chris........Great lyric, a really original take on it.
Sonic........So THAT'S how she does it....lol

Glad to see this thread coming back around. Some more cool stuff
coming out of the woodwork.....
