Lee, as one musician to another let me be the first to say that thread's like this are a GREAT way to get your song ideas stolen from you.

True, you watch Lee, some support band will be using your lyrics next time you play, perhaps its a good thing you didn't write out the guitar tab and chords too

 

[The Amazing Lee]

That's too much hard work and besides, all the tabs in my head. it would take ages to figure them out.

 

[jaguarr]

We were a country band.

Emo redneck!

It'd probably be more like rockabilly only more whiny and angsty. With eye-liner.

Lee, those are some pretty good lyrics. Very subject oriented, although the one about beowulf reminded me of Manowar.

Fight, fight, fight
Fighting the world every single day
Fighting the world for the right to play
Heavy metal in my brain
I’m fighting for metal cause it’s here to stay

Fighting, fighting, fighting the world
I been fighting the world
Fighting, fighting, fighting the world
I been figthing
Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight

Now people keep asking if we’re going to change
I look’em in the eye
Tell’em no way
Strips on a tiger don’t wash away
Manowar’s made of steel not clay

Fighting,fighting,fighting the world
I been figthing the world
Fighting,fighting,fighting the world
I been figthing

Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight for a living-fighting the world
Fight yeah!
See my brother standing by my side
Only got one thing in our mind
Radio playing this nation wide
Turn it up louder’til we all get fried

Fighting,fighting,fighting the world
I been figthing the world
Fighting,fighting,fighting the world
I been figthing
Fight-fighting the world
Fight-fighting the world
Fight-fighting the world
Fight-fighting the world
Fight for a living-fighting the world

It is manly metal, indeed. Especially with boots and undies like that.

Chorus:


Wasted Opportunity
you could be getting pissed
but it's easy to see

it's a
Wasted Opportunity
you could be getting naked
but your talking to me

Verse:

Your sitting down talking and your hardly no fun
you could be ****ing up but your not the only one
that's being more than lazy and doing **** all
you sit at home whining that you've got no life at all!

Do something about it instead of sitting on your arse
your life is going no where but to you it's still too fast
getting laid and doing drugs and drinking till your dead
you've made yer mind so very clear that you'll pick your nose instead

 

[Backdrifter]

Verse:

A warrior branded from an ancient land
An unsung hero from the Wulfings clan
Spend your time to sing and celebrate
Till the dark beast comes to obliterate.

Too drunk to act and too drunk to care
The savage beast from a hidden lair
Comes to feast on an army that sleeps
Then the hero must act till he has slain the beast.

Chorus:

Beowulf (he fights)
Grendal (attacks)
An arm (from the socket)
He’s dead (that’s a fact.)



Verse:
Grendal defeated the hall celebrates
But the tale isn’t over and danger awaits
A warrior is killed as the beast strikes again
In the form of the mother who’s out for revenge

A lair which is hidden in the depths of a lake
The hero must act and his life is at stake
A sword in his hand and armour so strong
The beast is beheaded and the danger is gone

Chorus:

Beowulf (He fights)
The mother (attacks)
The head (cut right off)
She’s dead (that’s a fact)

Verse:

Now king to his people, and sat at the throne
But a danger still lurks and he must act alone
A treasure has been stolen and the guardian leaves in rage
This beast is so angry that the whole town is a blaze

A dragon so fierce that the men back away
except for the hero who's here for the slay
The dragon is killed and the people are saved
he fought for the good but now lies in a grave.

Chorus:

Beowulf (He fights)
The Dragon (Attacks)
the hero (Victorious)
The end (That's a fact)

I am writing music to this right now. This has inspired me.
