This morning a memory from college days returned. My roommates and I would often wake up to Cheap Trick at maximum volume, and I always enjoyed the song "Gonna Raise Hell." Which, one day as I prepared breakfast, became "Gonna Make Eggs." I had not thought about that in years, until today.

GONNA MAKE EGGS
GONNA MAKE EE-EGGS
GONNA MAKE EGGS, GONNA MAKE EGGS, GONNA MAKE EE-EGGS

Yay, the EA forum is back.

When I was a teenager, someone gave me a taped copy of Reign In Blood. In an attempt to transcribe what I was hearing lyrically, I wrote down “Hot smiths, the meaning of pain, the women all want you to die.” I told my friends about it, and from that day on we called wrongly-sung lyrics “hot smiths”.

I will never not start At the Gates' Blinded by Fear with, "I bought a sewing machine..."

My two favorites:

"So slide over here
And give me a moment
Your moves are so raw
I've got to let you know
I've got to let you know
You wanna buy a kite?"

"Keep on/with the four straws/don't stop til you get enough"

This is awesome.

Works better on the Black Crowes version than the Otis Redding original:
"Hey little thing, Lemmy likes a cantaloupe /
Mama I'm sure gonna hand him one, fresh-a now"

I’m going to adopt this one over “Hey little thing, you’re a light Chicana.”

Freezing!
Can't feel my balls
Screaming!
No, nothing at all
I am dying to jizz
Cry out!
Can't fap under ice

"November coming fire, sour cream, sour cream."

Those actually may be the lyrics.
