Are you living in the east?
Strolling away the time?
Are you gathering up the years?
Do you have a diamond mine?
Holy Crap! Until this, I thought those were the lyrics! :eek: :o
Well, I probably won’t stop singing it that way…
Don’t feel bad, I just learned this too! LOL
A couple of lyrics sites have it the other way, but after getting thoroughly confused, I went and listened to the song. It is “blowing the stars around”.
I confirmed this by watching the video where Dan Seals (England Dan) does a country version of this song and it’s much more pronounced.

An oldie, “Johnny Angel”:
Other fellas call me up for a date,
But I just sit and wait,
I’d rather masturbate.
And my favorite when I’m in a racist mood:
R-E-S-P-E-C-K!
“All…we…do-ooo…
crumbles to the ground and hurts our little feet…”
From “One” by Metallica:
The lyric is “Tied to machines that make me be”, I always sing “Tied to machines that make me pee”.
One of those stupid-ass things you find funny in High School, that for some reason is still worth a chuckle today.
There actually is a song about a Bathysphere, though. It’s by Smog.
“What are the words to La Bamba?”
~VOW
Even better, “Sequined Asian Man.” I just like the visual that one gives me.

Alternative radio in the 90s was a good source for these.
The opening lines of “Santa Monica” by Everclear:
I am still living with your goat
Lonely and dreaming of a wet coat
And Collective Soul’s “The World I Know” was always “The One-Eyed Gnome” to me.
The Beatles’ “The girl with colitis goes by.”
Sondheim’s “Not a Dago Spy” (Not a Day Goes By)
And of course the immortal Marmoset Song:
“Marmoset, there’ll be days like this; there’ll be days like this, my marmoset.”
I probably do it all the time with any song I learn to play on keyboard first, and haven’t heard or sang in a while. But that’s the one I want to bring up.
There this old Christian song, done in a Gaither style, called “Let the Hallelujahs Roll.” It’s chorus begins, “Hallelujah feels the same in every language/ It starts the doorbells ringing in your soul.” No one I know has any idea why it is “doorbells.” And so my old church always sang “joy bells” instead.
“You! You got what I need!
And you say he’s just a friend,
but you’re always fucking him!”
One of my co-workers would sing the beginning of the Three’s Company theme “come and lick on my balls.”
To which I’d respond “Who licked my ball sack!? (Who, who,who, who, who)”
All in all, you’re just another dick in the mall.
You’ve painted up your tits and curled and combed your pubic hair.
Ruby are you constipated? here just eat this pear.
Apologies to Kenny Rogers… nah not really!
Sheryl Crowe
"all i want to do is hurt someone"When, at work, Purple Haze would play, I’d sing: 'scuse me while you kiss my ass.
User name reminded me of another favorite, from ‘Hair of the Dog’:
Now you’re messin with a vaginal itch.
