Writer's Block: Know by Heart
Feb. 8th, 2009 03:42 pm[Error: unknown template qotd]Well this is embarrassing.
(I'm only posting these Writer's Block things coz I'm still snuffly...)
"Just a perfect day... Drinks and gravy in the park, then later when it gets dark, we'd go home."
I thought it was odd, but then, Americans ARE odd. Hell, they have biscuits with gravy, so perhaps it was something like that. I only found out what it really said about three years ago. I still sing my version.
I think the best one (not my version, but a version I saw on "Never Mind the Buzzcocks" was Phil Jupitus' version of "Smells Like Teen Spirit"
"With the lights down, it's Las Vegas
Here we are now entertainers
I keep two pigs, in containers,
Here we are now, entertainers."
You'll never sing the right version again.
Talking of singing - the best lyrics to The Trumpet Voluntary are: (learn 'em because you'll love to sing them when you know them.)
"Moses supposes his toeses are Roses,
But Moses supposes Erroneously,
Moses he knowses his toeses aren't roses,
As Moses supposes his toeses to be!" AH. It's not the trumpet voluntary. What is it? ETA: Mozart: Horn Concert #4, K495 -- Mvt 3 hurrah!!!!
