Do you ever use song lyrics in conversation?

    If someone says something from a song, I have to sing said song.


    Always.

    "I'm a sex machine ready to reload...."

    Great fun when used in a Night Club - Only brings trouble when used at a Kids Birthday Party.

    Last weekend at a session in a different town. Went to a girl and said "hey I just met you and this is crazy but any chance of a shift?"

    She must have loved my forwardness because it worked!

    "There's no way I'm riding you, unless I'm wrecked on bags of glue."

    A Saturday-night staple of mine.

    A friend of mine has actually stopped talking to me because I'm forever doing this... But in the end, it doesn't even matter. It's MY way. My way, or the highway.

    All in all, it's just another brick in the wall.

    Bitch.

    Sometimes I slyly stick them in the middle of a conversation. Then sometimes keep at it until the other person realises. Usually a good icebreaker!

    "She was asking for it..."

    Use that one every now and again.

    My girlfriend used to do a lot of Roleplay in a certain MMO, so I'd often set her little challenges in the speeches she'd often have to give.

    A few months back I dared her to work the lyrics of S-Club 7's "Don't stop" into her (supposed to be) very important speech, and she managed to pull it off on the spot.

    The best part is, not a single person noticed and congratulated her on the well-written speech.
    Meanwhile we were laughing in the background.

    This thread topic can also be flipped! As in, you say something, that unbeknown to yourself are lyrics from a song and some twat then starts singing the offending song!!

    I think this thread is turning into a musical.

    There may be trouble ahead...

    doesn't stop the 'working man' charging the biggest ticket prices I've seen bar Streisand - but even then she provided a plush setting, not like the rds! 'The Boss' may say so but you don't have to pay so!

    Everybody's got a hungry heart. Bruce, has a greedy one.

    The things you've said have got me real mad! :mad: They knew the castle they were playing in only had one narrow entrance. Some people missed half her concert after paying €200! It's been a long, long, long time since she played in Ireland (& may be the last time) & that's what she does to her fans, chose plush over practical — what matters most?

    You think Bruce is in it for the money? His tickets cost around €65 and he normally plays over 3 hours with no support. I remember a summer in Dublin he played for 3 and half! How is Bruce a rip off compared with anyone else playing these days? Though I'm sure when your mind's made up there's no point trying to change it. :rolleyes:

    sing your words when you converse the lyrics just to make it that more disturbing for the person your chit chatting to..:pac:

    I did use the entire lyrics of So Long And Thanks For All The Fish as replies to various Prison threads a few months ago after being challenged to do so in the mod forum. I managed to do it undetected, but I think poor Jake La Motta thought I'd finally lost my marbles.

    Other than that, it's not something I do deliberately.

    Probably off topic, but speaking of working things in, an ex boss of mine in the civil service had to write a speech once for a certain Junior Minister with a particular speech impediment. Part of the speech was to refer to someone called Roderick, so of course he determined that he could not pass this opportunity to work the phrase "welease Wodewick" into the speech. Did it too without the Minister being any the wiser. :D
