LYRIC EXERCISE

Well, we've been having so much dang fun with games lately, let's try this one. And I think that I even made this one up on my own. Anyway, the object is for the first person, that's me, to write a sentence that contains a classic rock lyric. The next person would do the same, but it has to carry on from where the previous sentence left off. Who knows, we might get a pretty good story out of this. Make sure you use quotation marks for your lyric.

I'll start us off:

I just heard that "the greeks don't want no freaks".

I'm with Jon. I was very impressed, as how the lyrics were processing, while it was "original" lyrics. Once you made some up, the "magic" dissapeared, and I'm not that interrested anymore to see where it's going, or to fill in some lyrics myself. That's just saying.

Now, if I had to continnue the lyrics before it got a bit wrong, I would had put in:

The greeks don't want no freaks on the rebound. But with a streak of Rin Tin Tin they climbed aboard their starship with that one guitar. "I think my spaceship knows which way to go".

But it's up to you, boss?

The greeks don't want no freaks on the rebound. But with a streak of RinTin Tin they climbed aboard their starship with that one guitar. I think my spaceship knows which way to go, said the captain. But, he said with "rocket engines burning fuel so fast", we may not make it to our destination.
