I did it My Way from the 2006 Demos Lyrics

Post by Ragehead91 » Tue Nov 25, 2008 7:02 pm

I tried to write down the lyrics and came up with this:

Look at me
Do you see
All the things
You could be
If you see
Many more
Usally
Suddenly
They are clear
When you are up against the wall
Fade away
Nevermore
Ultimate
Autocar
Many Cars
Speeding Up
No Police
Anarchys
Maybe better cause you wanna say:

Chorus:
And it's okay:
I don't wanna do the things you say
I don't wanna play the game you play
I just wanna make best of what I can belive to be
I don't wanna Fight it, that's okay
Make ?? ?? I'm not gay
I just wanna walk the road I've paid with myselfe
I did it my way

When you say
You will pay
But you can't
??
??
Boring guy
like you are
??
You just think
That you can buy your way to hell
What I say
I will say
But you don't care about
Anyway
Anyway,
library, missery
cause you wanna rule the game yourselfe

These lyrics are really just a stream of consciousness...

When they are question marks it means I couldn't understand Kotipelto.
And I did understand "I'm not gay".

And according to Timo T. they had to rush the lyrics so they were a "stream of consciousness" (this is what he called it).

Google is your friend:

I Did It My Way

Look at me
Do you see all the things
I want you, you to see?
You're telling me
Sure I know you so well?
But you just act when you are
Back against the wall

What is true, what is fake?
Everything that you make
Or you take, it's plain to see
Image wise, you're okay
But is there anything
Inside of you?

Hear me say:

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna do the things you say
I don't wanna play the game you play
I just wanna be myself
And walk the road without pretending
I just wanna live my life, be true
So many things there are that I will do
When I'm looking back the road
At least I can say: I did it my way

There you are once again telling
Me how the things all should be
And that I care far too much about
My art, 'cause you know they
Will never understand

I am me, I cannot be
What I'm not, I am real and I feel
But you can never stop, you forgot
'Cause no one's gonna tell
Me what to do

Hear me say:

[Chorus]


Don't know that that's 100% accurate, but I think it's closer than what you were able to figure out. 8)
Let's Rage!

I think the topic was on the gibberish that is the demo lyrics where kotipelto made random noises for the vocal lines. Rather creative and interesting the stuff that got scrambled out.

I thought what aldaron posted was the lyrics of the final version with Kiske, rather than the demo? I could be wrong.

I don't wanna fight if that's ok
If I did it, points I'm not gay

pay enough
and it's laugh
for a guy
like you are
if you change

Read before your post. I was talking about the 2006 Demos, not the finished Version from the New Era Album.

Thanks. Seriously, I know those were demos, but still, why didn't they have the lyrics finished? I don't think any record company would sign you if you sent them stuff like that. And even if they had to rush them, write at least something that makes sense.

I agree with icecab21.

Quotation from the guestbook of Kotipelto:

"Could you tell me the lyrics of Last Night On Earth, those which you sing on the demo version? Kiitos!

I don't remember them anymore... "


So, I think he improvised.

Well we have plenty of proof that record companies will do all kinds of things and follow their own rules to a rather amoral degree. There are so many kinds of deals with so many kinds of customers.

Heh, it's not a matter of recording companies doing amoral stuff, I think it's just that nobody takes lyrics like "If I fornicate in moonlight there's no reason to get mad, I might copulate in sunlight" seriously for demos, at least not in a power metal context. Jesus Christ you guys are too nitpicky lately.

Have a beer or something.

I was thinking both in a generalized context and with some specific examples in mind :)
One example could be the American music awards. They go from the Disney promoted Jonas brothers performing to the pussycat dolls pole dancing.

Not sure whether they are correct but...

Look at me, do you see
all the things you could be
if you see many more
usually, suddenly
they are clear
when you are up against the wall

fade away nevermore
ultimate autobahn
many cars speeding up
no police and no cheese
maybe better 'cause you are insane

and it's okay
I don't wanna do the things you say
I don't wanna play the game you play
I just want to make the best of what I can believe to be
I don't want to fight it, that's ok
If I did it, points I'm not gay
I just want to walk the road I paved with myself
I did it my way

When you say you will pay
but you can't
regina, charisma
more of guy like you are
make a change
you just think that you can buy your way to hell
what I say I will say
but you know
thereabout
anyway? Hemingway
library, misery
don't you wanna rule the game yourself?

Yup, I seriously do think "autobahn" was in there somewhere.

Language is like that.
If you copulate in the sunlight
If you fornicate in the moonlight
"If you copulate in a food fight
If you masturbate in the moonlight"

That makes more sense to me...

:lol:

I think one of the masters of all this is Ronnie Dio.
Ride the tiger, you can see his stripes but you know he's clean, oh don't you see what I mean!
If I wrote something like that everyone would look at me like I had three eyes and then call an ambulance. :lol: But with Ronnie it's somehow really cool.

Oh dear .. I would be deeply offended by any vicious online attack on my credibility, on my person, or on the general tenor of some forum. If someone for instance were to say that I was evil... I'd definitely have to pursue a remedy in the courts. :roll:

Philosophy, particle physics, religion, curing cancer and combating other scourges of mankind, discussing the fine arts, ending hunger through charity, promoting world peace etc -- such things are allowed here too. But also, talking about music, about metal no matter who played in what band or what the past was... er, what else... oh yes, rodents, silly pictures and tits. It's up to you guys :)

We allow people to feel safe farting around here without the feeling of having to walk on eggshells.

Speaking of Dio, you wouldn't happen to have any nice/funny/interesting stories about your time in his band? :)

Yes, just like the child that has seen his father slaughter his mother is just simply "bitching" if they were to be negatively affected by that experience.

:? I just visited the RR-church and it was as before. Empty!! I sat in the back and was silent as a churchmouse because I know that the priest would throw me out if he heard a single "pip". He hates mice.
Today they only talked about how evil and stupid Strato-forum is. We are all only 12 years old and we have so ugly pics and nasty threads in contrast to RR where everything is only sunshine and happiness. Their priest would never allow them to say anything he doesn't like so they all mjau like cats.
But one can feel that they long for freedom and they sneak in to Stratochurch and read and look enviously at the pretty girls and the funny pics. But they are not allowed to tell anyone that they think it is the most wonderful site in the world and they have to go on with the false worshipping and the silly hymns.
Thank God we have our freedom here and that no hypocritical priest tells us what we can say-and think. 8)

Timo has shown that he can strongly disagree with me and not kick me out. I'd quote but Jens has even kicked timo quotes out of this forum :)
I also completely disagree
Since I like those do not want cat pictures, a quote from timo :)

I think you are his little pet and his beloved choirboy Icecar and he knows he can trust you. You will go through fire and stormy water for him and he knows you will never see the lies and the hypocrisy.You love each other and that gives you a little more freedom than all the other scared little "miauercats".
