yes, high school pep bands do learn easy shiat on their own. Happens all the time.

It's entirely appropriate. Everyone in the stands knew the lyrics. I knew right away this was a black school.

Way to keep the stereotypes alive, morans.

Freak a leak? Damn, that song is old. What's next, an article about Salt N Pepa's Push It?

"Carrie Watson couldn't believe her ears as she sat on her big fat ass in the stands enjoying a high school football game halftime show."

There... fixed that for ya.

Hey, my marching band plays 'Tear the Roof off the Sucker' in the stands regularly. Should we be advocating property damage?

We had a full marching band arrangement of "Up Against the Wall, Motherfarker" that we'd play whenever the other team got a penalty.
Played it throughout high school, nobody complained- although occasionally we'd get flipped the bird by the other team's cheerleaders. Opposing football player (MBHS) flipped us off once and the ref saw it- gave him a 15 yard penalty.

That was back in the day when CS&N added the Y.

Spenser- "I dont have a problem with the lyrics, but I do have a problem with teens emulating thuggery."

Huh? You don't think songs like this promote thuggery?

I don't care for rap, but from time to time used to listen to some of the older rap. At least the older rap had some social commentary. I found "Fark the Police" offensive, but I also know there are black guys who get harrased by the cops and the song was a statement.

Most of the newer stuff I've heard, admittedly very little, seems to be centered around "Look at me, I'm a big rap star, I have a wild and crazy lifestyle, buy my crap so I can maintain it"

Rule #1: "F*ck 'em if they can't take a joke."

Doubly so for this pathetic mediocretin who went out of her way to be offended.

Marched HS and College.

Would never want to play "rap" as music. Contradiction in terms, as rap doesn't have...a few of those defining characteristics of music...eh. I've got a music major friend who'll rant for me, I just play.(And Ray Charles said something about this too didn't he? Can't remember.)

Rock and Roll is still the best!
 
2006-10-14 04:27:37 AM
PS: Did study older rap. Agreed, that the social commentary was good. Too bad it went sour.

Texas Di: OH NOES! THE MUSIC MAKES YOU BAD! IMPLANTS DIRTY THOUGHTS!

LoL!
Hormones implant dirty thoughts.
Sorry puritan parents, your teenagers are horny. It's just the truth.

cuzsis: Did study older rap. Agreed, that the social commentary was good. Too bad it went sour.

There is still some good stuff around. Most of it doesn't appeal to me sound-wise, but not every rap songs lyrics are so crappily composed or inane. Francis Sage is a good example. Or maybe Jurassic 5, or Ozomatli (although Ozo combines rock and latin and stuff too; not strictly rap, but they kickass).

At my high school, we had a song called Ten Tons. For my first three years, the director knew the lyrics and had no problems with it. Then we got a new director who banned it. It came back recently at alumni night.

Ten tons of titty in a loose brassiere
ejaculation in your ear
the bastard children of a moose and deer
these things remind me of you

ahhhh. My alma mater. What happened to my school? Recently the principle was caught smoking crack purchased from students, this whiney biatch of a mother is biatching about this, and the football team on a 100 year suck fest? This woman is a moron and her kid is SO SO SO gonna have it rough at school now. she should think of her kid's safety for disrupting the somewhat hefty band battles that occur at the local schools, her kid is gonna be the laughing stock of the school for a while now.

The Kingsmen came together in a garage,
They could hardly even play
But they practiced night
And day pretty soon they got to where they could really play that song Louie,
Louie
So, they saved up all the money from the shows,
Went in to one of them studios and gave their version of the song a try

Now, I don't know the words to that song Louie,
Louie and I'm pretty sure the singer for the
Kingsmen didn't know 'em either,
If he did know 'em he didn't get 'em right on the record
Cause on the record they sound jumbled in his jaw? It says,
Me think of me girl oh so constantly
Ahmayaaah makaaaah aahh ooohoooh aaaaah
Well, that last part scared everybody from the PTA to the FBI
You see, the kids had been going kind of crazy lately
And it seemed like nobody could figure out why,
So they decided to form a coalition,
Launch an investigation, you know for the children, they at least had to try
To figure out the words to Louie, Louie


Chorus
It's the feel good hit of this endless summer
It gets these kids out of control
Singin along to that star spangled bummer,
Hail, hail rock and roll

Marilyn Manson's real name isn't even Marilyn Manson,
He's a skinny public high school Kid from Florida,
Not some monster from out of this world and like of a lot other skinny long hair public
High school kids he was sick of getting
Beaten up by the pulling guard all week only to go out on the weekend,
And watch the Quarterback get all the girls so,
He formed a band man
Now' he gets all the girls,
A few years later a couple of latchkey kids go tragically
Mad and everybody's standing around the television store at the mall trying to figure out what went wrong,
This guy says,
You think the life of a kid going to high school could've gotten so bad this other guy says nah,
It's just the words to one of them goddamn Marilyn Manson songs,
You know the one

Chorus

You know, every ten years or so our country and some other little country,
We start firing all of our newest weapons
At each other for some reason or another, right or wrong,
Like it or not, it happens, and when it happens
People get shot and when people get shot,
They show it on tv a lot every night at six o clock
And you don't even have to be eighteen to see it you don't even have to be in first grade,
First grade where they teach the kid pride
They tell him he'll need to thrive,
In a world where only the strong will survive,
So he's taught the art of more
To compare to and to keep score Monday thru Friday while
He stares at the floor til' Sunday they make him go to
School once more only this time they make him wear a suit and a tie
And listen to some guy who claims to know Where people go
When they die tell him that only the meek are gonna inherit the earth Well shiat,
By this time the kid doesn't know what anything
Is worth, now brothers and sisters I am only one guy
And I don't even know the words to that song Louie,
Louie but I can tell you right now without batting an eye
That the next time some latchkey kid goes wrong
It aint gonna be cause that Eminem gets to say the word Fag in his song
And I'm not trying to preach to ya either,
I'm just trying to sing to ya too, you know string a few words together

Hey kids...
Lets get it on,
Lets get it on

No imagination these days.
Play "My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean", sing the lyrics from "My God, How the Money Rolls In". The only parents who'll catch on are the ones who are cool enough not to care.

My Grandpa sells condoms to Frat Boys,
He pricks every tip with a pin;
My Grandma does backstreet abortions&mdashl
My GOD, how the money rolls in!

NightOwl2255: I don't need this shiat
You stupid sadistic abusive farking whore
How would you like to see how it feels mommy
Here it comes, get ready to die

I know a guy that had this played at his wedding. His now ex-wife was not amused.



People don't pay attention to lyrics anymore.

I had a hell of a good laugh while listening to WSM (Nashville) one day. A fellow redneck called in a special request for his 10th wedding anniversary.

He wanted to hear Ray Price singing "For the Good Times"

Words and music by kris kristofferson

Dont look so sad;
I know its over;
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning.
Lets just be glad we had some time to spend together
Theres no need to watch the bridges that were bur.....ning.

Chorus:
Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine.
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.

Ill get along; youll find another;
And Ill be here if you should find you ever need me.
Dont say a word about tomorrow or forever.
Therell be time enough for sadness when you leave me.

Chorus:


What a dumbass.
