    Sleaze Rock
    Lyrics: Merrick; Music: Upson

    There was a time not so long ago
    When the guys would dress up for the rock n roll show
    Denim and leather took the world by storm
    (it was the uniform)

    We banged our heads put our horns in the air
    Drained a can of AquaNet in our hair
    They were the days we drank JD like H20
    (where’d they go?)

    Sleaze rock, baby, woncha bring it back
    Tease my hair out, paint my fingernails black
    The years of nu whatever just got old
    It’s time to sully our souls with rock and roll
    Sleaze rock, baby, it’s what we need
    Can’t stand the latest crap from Limp Linkin Creed
    Gimme solos gimme glam gimme danger fast
    Put on your mascara boys, it’s time to kick – time to kick -- some ass

    I’ll take my Randy my King Crosby too
    Shreddin’ all these downtuners back to skool
    And the singer tries to rap, man, what’s up with that?
    (it sounds like crap)

    Your introspective lyrics make us sick
    What happened to songs ‘bout doin’ chicks
    Talk about your feelings like it never ends
    (are you a band or my girlfriend?)

    CHORUS
    [Shreddin’ Time]

    I’m tired of waiting, wishing, and looking back
    Gonna sling on my Les Paul and let it rock
    We’ll make a lotta noise just wait and see
    (who’s with me?)

    Keith and I were like a metal Bernie Taupin and Elton John. He in Florida with the tune, me in sunny New York with the lyrics.

    Sorry we had to settle for me singing, though. Oh, well. Deadlines are a bitch.

    Great job putting it together, Keith. I had a blast!

      I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

          Yup, Tom said the same thing, but dang it - 122bpm is as fast as I can play it, even sloppy! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                      Wow, almost an even 3:30 too. The reverse loop thing on the outro solo was very cool. Fun song...reminds me of Beastie Boys Fight For Your Right 'Party' type vein.

                        Now THAT's a compliment!

                        Thanks for the kind words, guys. I had a blast doing this with Keith. Matter of fact, we're currently working on another.

                        Anybody else needs lyrics, just give ol' Crankdaddy a shout! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
