LOS themesong?


..

Recommended Posts

I'm pissed, listening to random music from my collection while watching American Football. I think that I have run into the perfect LoS newbie theme song: Soup Dragons, Divine Thing. To wit:

 

[color:purple]You are the one supreme being.

Just dressed to kill

And fulfill

Just any dream.

And you are the one heart's desire.

All hips and lips

Made to trick

Just any fool.

 

I could have sworn

that you were an angel.

'Cause you're a

sweet, sweet, sweet, divine thing.

But I should have known

That you were the devil.

Dressed like a sweet, sweet, sweet, divine thing...

 

And you lack the one thing,

That is devotion.

Not always there, in your hair,

In a daze.

Just too mixed up in

Your own emotions.

Your vanity

Will always be

Your greatest thing...

 

 

Diiiiiiiiviiiiiiiine thing, diiiiiiiiiviiiiiiiine thing...

 

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand

Take my hand...

[/color]

 

Any others?

 

Cheers,

SD

OK the first morning I ever woke up in Thailand circa 1989 my buddy played me I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night The Electric Prunes sort of summed it up :p

 

 

Last night your shadow fell upon my lonely room

I touched your golden hair and tasted your perfume

Your eyes were filled with love the way they used to be

Your gentle hand reached out to comfort me

Then came the dawn

And you were gone

You were gone, gone, gone

I had too much to dream last night

Too much to dream

I'm not ready to face the light

I had too much to dream

Last night

Last night

 

The room was empty as I staggered from my bed

I could not bear the image racing through my head

You were so real that I could feel your eagerness

And when you raised your lips for me to kiss

Came the dawn

And you were gone

You were gone, gone, gone

 

[repeat chorus 2X]

 

Oh, too much to dream

Oh, too much to dream

Too much to dream last night

Oh, too much to dream

[repeat to fade]

They already have one :

 

[THE AMERICAN]

Bangkok, Oriental setting

And the city don't know that the city is getting

The creme de la creme of the chess world in a

Show with everything but Yul Brynner

 

Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute

Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it

All change -- don't you know that when you

Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

 

It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or --

or this place!

 

[COMPANY]

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free

You'll find a god in every golden cloister

And if you're lucky then the god's a she

I can feel an angel sliding up to me

 

[THE AMERICAN]

One town's very like another

When your head's down over your pieces, brother

 

[COMPANY]

It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity

To be looking at the board, not looking at the city

 

[THE AMERICAN]

Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --

 

[COMPANY]

Tea, girls, warm, sweet

Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

 

[THE AMERICAN]

Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist

Whose every move's among the purest

I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

 

[COMPANY]

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble

Not much between despair and ecstasy

One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

Can't be too careful with your company

I can feel the devil walking next to me

 

[THE AMERICAN]

Siam's gonna be the witness

To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness

This grips me more than would a

Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

 

And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --

 

I don't see you guys rating

The kind of mate I'm contemplating

I'd let you watch, I would invite you

But the queens we use would not excite you

 

So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage

parlours --

 

[COMPANY]

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free

You'll find a god in every golden cloister

A little flesh, a little history

I can feel an angel sliding up to me

 

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble

Not much between despair and ecstasy

One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

Can't be too careful with your company

I can feel the devil walking next to me
