Luxo Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I guess I'd be a hypocrite if I made fun of Barry for this one..  I'll try to make something up: On the first day of christmas vekoma gave to me... 1 nasty headache 2 red ears 3 neck fractures 4 aching limbs 5 killer inversions 6 breaks from riding 7 cuts a-bleeding 8 riders a-moaning (?) 9 cars flipping 10 white knuckles 11 purple bruises 12 reasons not to ride Vekoma  That's from the "Make a Coaster Christmas Carrol Topic."

BarryH Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 It's been a long time since I last saw this song, but I updated some of the lyrics...  "Credit Whore" (To the tune of "Sk8tr Boi") A song by BarryH  Montu I’ve rode Gwazi I’ve done Now it’s time for some Wacky Worm fun Hey, it’s an SLC You say that they’re the same Even with different names It adds to my count All just the well, I log them into Excel Rode all the Deja Vus And the Superman: Ultimate Flights They brought my credit count to newer heights  I am a credit whore I need credits more and more I need a kid to ride the Taxi Jam The seats may be too small I may be too tall But I will ride every coaster on Earth!  5 months to go I sit at home Waiting for the opening of another Dark Knight clone Boot up my PC Access RCDB Where is the nearest Jeepers to me? I called up my friend We wanted to go To Astroworld, you know, To ride the Serpent before the park closed Hey, look what I found There’s a Boomerang around No credit shall be turned down  I am a credit whore I need credits more and more I need a kid to ride the Taxi Jam I’m at 99 coasters, you see What will my 100th be? The Woodstock Express, of course!  I am a credit whore I need credits more and more I need a kid to ride the Taxi Jam Vekoma skater time No kid needed according to the sign I’m waiting in the 60 minute line  Does Journey to Atlantis count, my friend? It’s got the coaster part in the end How about Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls? It’s got a lift hill, after all Credit whoring can be fun Just ask Jeff Johnson Waive 5 bucks in front of the operator’s eyes Maybe he’ll let me take a ride  There’s a Minor Mike A ‘Lil Shaver I like Here I found a Dragon Wagon I am in love They’re powered, I know But I still count 'em 'cause I'm a credit ho!  I am a credit whore I need credits more and more I need a kid to ride the Taxi Jam Visited the Six Flags Over Georgia park Visited Dixieland on a lark Now I’ve got a new credit to mark  I am a credit whore I need credits more and more I saw a Fiesta Express My credit whoring is in excess But you do the same I just know!

odene497 Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 LOL this is awesome Barry! I put on Sk8er Boi to try and follow the beat, but I kept getting confused. I would totally sing this but there's no "record your own song" place near me. Â Â -Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 You know, there is this place where you can request songs of various types. Â SONGS TO WEAR PANTS TO Â No, really. It is called that. You can request a paid song (as long as you want), or a free song (1min). Â /Edward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryH Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 ^Cool idea! Â Better idea: make a music video! Â I've wanted to make a video of it, but I need to record the song. I can't sing in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesey Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hmmm...I'm actually pretty good at recording at home. Don't have anything planned tomorrow night so I'll see what I can do...I'll probably use a drum loop and layer it with some electric guitars and such or just make it an acoustic song. Is the final version of the lyrics on the previous page? Â p.s. some of the stuff I recorded a while ago, I have since gotten better at recording: Â http://www.myspace.com/keithpmusic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesey Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Okay then. I might just remove the vocals from the actual audio track to make it go a lot faster...Then all I have to do is record vocals. Actually, that might sound better altogether...

Goliath513 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Ha, I can see it now. "Theme Park Review - The Album" 1. "Credit Whore" 2. "The Twelve Pains of Vekoma" Â Eight more tracks and we got an album going! Â Post random ideas for songs and I'll add them to the track listing.

coasterdad Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Some one in the mid 80's did a parody of some rock songs ala Weird Al. One song was- I love roller coasters, tune of Joan Jett- I love rock and roll The others were really funny. Now I have to find that tape. someone did almost 8 song. The a couple of others were VH and Def leppard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
