Guess the Lyrics

So Ive seen this done on other forums, and if done right it can be kind of fun. The objective to the game is to post a set of lyrics to a song and have everyone else try and guess what the song is.

This game can be somewhat hard so I thought it would be best if everytime you post lyrics to the song you add three clues to help the guessers out.

For example heres somthing that it should look like:

Song Lyrics: "And as we wind on down the road. Our shadows taller then our sould. There Walks a lady we all know".

Clues:
1) The song came out in 1971.
2) It was on this bands fourth album.
3) Its over 8 mins. in length.

Then someone would guess "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin (because its an easy one) and they would post the next set.

Some things to take into consideration when posting are:
1) Don't make the lyrics to the song to hard or easy to reconize. For a song like Stairway to Heaven, it would be better to post: "If theres a Bustle In Your Headgrow don't be alarmed now" instead of "And shes Buying the Stairway to Heaven", because the lyrics kind of give it away.
2) Don't give very specificclues. A clue being the bands name may make it to easy and give it away to fast.
3) Don't make your clues opinioated like "This is the best song in the world".
4) Dont post the whole songs lyrics, and done just post a few words or one line. Try and give it a few lines from the song so its not to hard or easy.
5)If a set of lyrics goes for more then 24 hours with out a correct guess, someone else will post a new set.
6) Have fun, its a forum game and shouldn't be taken to seriously.


Ill start this one off.

Song Lyrics:
"Here from the king's mountain view
Here from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan, I do
On waffles and flesh never few"

Clues:
1) This is the second song off its album.
2) This is off the 4th and latest studio album by this particular band.
3) Its the opening line to the song.

I put a little joke in this one, but anyone who knows the song should get it.

My Turn!


"My heartbeat stumbles and my backbone crumbles, I feel, is it real? as the lynch mob doubles, they want blood and theyll kill for it - drain me and theyll kneel for it, burn me at the stake met the devil made the deal for it"

Hints:
They are a hardcore rock/rap group
They are highly popular on myspace
Law made me a sig with them in it
this is their newest song

Hollywood Undead - My Black Dahlia (?).. I know it's by Hollywood Undead


My turn:

1.) Deathcore band
2.) Are somewhat popular on myspace
3.) They're newest album is Allegiance

"Leaders are hard to come by,
followers are omnipresent.
Satisfied with a mediocre lifestyle
Satisfied!
No one is setting a path for us to follow,
no ones striving to be on top.
No one is setting a path for us to follow
we will all fall in the end.
In dying days!
The path has been set,
you're leading far astray.
Far Astray!
The path has been set,
you're leading far astray.
Far Astray!

BRING DA MUTHA****IN RUCKUS!

In Darkness!
Unfortunate as u may be,
you'll never see the light.
Someone must rise above,
someone must precede.
Unfortunate, you must precede!
Unfortunate!
Leaders are hard to come by,
followers are omnipresent.
Satisfied with a mediocre lifestyle,
Staisfied!
No one is setting a path for us to follow,
we will all fall in the end.
In dying days
As the time to rise approaches
No one will take responsibility"

Since the song is so short, I just posted the whole song.

Just a question, E did you really know that or did you type the lyrics into google. Ive never seen you listen to much rock so I am just curious.

The games more fun if its played fair. I don't mean to call anyone out in particular, but I just think it ruins the point.

DeBog, you titled the thread wrong. It should be "Post lyrics to songs of some of the most obscure bands so someone else can google them and post the band name."

I guess that's kind of long, so I think you're good with what it is now.

This game would be fun if we actually had some lyrics posted. All I see are teenagers writing about how tight their pants are.
