doubly fannish song lyrics!!

January 18th, 2008 (11:45 pm)

Okay, so since i have already become a *shock horror!* fanfic reader and writer... I decided to continue on the slippery slope...perhaps helped a little along the way by wearing slick shoes. (slick shoes, are you crazy?!)
Behind the cut is alternative/parody lyrics to the song VB - yes that's right! - by [info]nixwilliamsand [info]johnnypurplewhich i love. That is one piece of rather embarrassing fandom, being that it is written and sung by a friend, but hey, (time to suck up) if it's that good... anyway check it out on www.nixwilliams.com ! (you may have to go back a page to find it)
But the other fandom is Shaun of the Dead which anyone can tell I am a huge fan of. Picture the breakup scene...

note: (I've put the original lyrics on the left, and my SOTD lyrics on the right in blue. The main voice is Liz, and the italics is Shaun. The red is first Daffs, and then Ed...cut in soundbite from movie) I was actually going to sing it and post that (*is embarrassed*) but the microphone/computer was dead. (probably as good thing) but still i like it so here tis.

Also, i clearly changed the final, um, stanza? from the original, but I was pretty sure i could work it out. here:
The Wincester (or 'Hog Lumps'):

What’s that I smell on your breath?
VB
You’ve been down to the pub again with your brother
I still don’t believe you’ve got a brother
You used to only drink red wine
We used to stay in on Sundays
You used to read Virginia Woolf and drink red wine
And that’s VB

You say I’ve changed, but you’ve changed

Maybe it’s a phase we’re going through
You used to watch the football with me
It’s not like I love the Tigers more than you
I just need a room of my own, now
I just need a team of my own, now
I just need a life of my own, now
And anyway it’s Tooheys New


We haven’t held hands since last week
I wonder if you notice that?
I don’t mind if you go to every game
But you forgot to feed the cat
You were the one who wanted happy homes
You promised you wanted to settle down
You were the gold at the end of the rainbow
And where has the rainbow lead us now?

You haven’t said I love you for four days

And when I do you turn your back
There’s more to a thunderstorm than rainbows
I wonder if you notice that?
How about some time to think it over
I’ll go to my mum’s for a few days
You can have the cat for company
I wanted a dog anyway


You say I’ve changed, but you’ve changed
You used to only drink red wine
Maybe it’s a phase we’re going through

We used to stay in on Sundays
You used to watch the football with me

You used to read Virginia Woolf and drink red wine
It’s not like I love the Tigers more than you

I just need a room of my own, now

And that’s VB
I just need a team of my own, now

I know it’s VB
I just need a life of my own, now
Don’t deny it’s VB
What’s that I smell on your breath?
Hog lumps?
You’ve been down to the pub again with your mate Ed
I still don’t believe he’s not a lover
You said you’d try to drink red wine
We could see Opera on Sundays
You said you’d quit smoking and drink red wine
And you’re smoking
 
You said you’d change, there’s no change
I hoped it a phase you’re going through
You said you’d go travelling with me
Well that’s not fair we went to Greece didn’t we? You met in greece!
I just need a life leading somwhere
I just need you to want to want it too.
Do you wanna go drink in the pub, now?
And anyway they do toasties too. Yeah there's a brevel out back
 
Sure we’ve  been out since last week
But only  to the Wincester
I don’t care if you go to the Wincester
But you forgot to book our table
You were the one who wanted somewhere nice
You promised that it was all arranged
You said that you would be adventurous
And where’s adventure led us now?
             The Wincester?
10 times you said I love you in four days
But everytime you speak to Ed
There’s more to music than Electro                          (Like Sade.)
I wonder if you noticed that?                                  
Unless things change I think it’s over
I haven’t met your mum after four years
You can have Ed for company
I’ve got Daffs and Di anyway
 
You said you’d change, there’s no change
I’ll quit now what’s the next one?
This is not a phase we’re going through
But I brought flowers just for you
The card’s addressed to your mum Shaun
Things can’t stay as they are or I’ll go crazy
If I don’t do something
What d’you mean do something?
I just need a life leading somewhere
The Wincester?
I just need you to want to want it too
I want you.
I just need something more than our local
But they have hog lumps.

tim and daisy

squee! i'm so glad you like it! I really wish i could have recorded it so people unfamiliar with ur song would still get it, but they'll just haf to get familiar with urs! :P so there.

now don't freak out, I'm also working on fanishising your song River/Lonely...making an animation about Snape, but I'm taking a while because (i suck, no) bc i wanted it to look one way but it's faster to make it look another way, so..eh i'm undecided which way to take it. faster way i think.
