Musical poem

[valarltd]

Put your MP3 player on shuffle (mine was organized alphabetically by song), and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first is the title.

Hmm, it almost makes sense!


When I get older, losing my hair
Now, boys, I've been to Bethlehem
Kiss me each morning for a million years.

Kyrie Eleison.

He just hopped the Jamestown ferry
Take a little walk to the edge of town
I like trashy adventure flicks.

You gentlemen can watch while I'm scrubbing the floor
On a Jackalope high.

Worlds grow old and suns grow cold.
It's all the same.

I was pulling up a hill that's known as the Devil's Crest
Lawd it's the same old tune for fiddle and guitar
I open the door and the light hits my face
Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher mountain

Toolin down the highway doing seventy-nine,
Let's dance!
My mother's mother drew the sword
For to see mad Tom o'Bedlam.

Friday night I crashed your party.
I'm just an American boy
And I would do anything for love.

You can say your prayers, work your rites...
