Halfbakery: Song: A-F
Bake on, you crazy 'bakers   (+21, -5)  [vote for, against]

Remember when you were young
More fishbones than buns
Bake on, you crazy 'bakers
Now there's caffeinated socks
And a road-cone that flocks
Bake on, you crazy 'bakers
You've got silent dodgy wind-chimes
And custard-filled speed bumps
You're trapped in the film-noir home
Come on you thumbwax, you po, DrCurry
Come on you Waugsqueke, and 'Bubba, and bristolz and bake!

You tried to kidnap the moon
Rode in a Hullaballoon
Bake on, you crazy 'bakers
You played pinball with cats
Gave no asses of rats
Bake on, you crazy 'bakers
Redundancy Armbands
Magnetic near-closures
Tuning pianos with mice
Come on you Farmer, St Threef, Rods and blissmiss
Come on you hippo, k_sra, even Vernon and bake!

Rods? You won't find him here... Ian would fit the meter just as well.

Shine on, angel. See you on the dark side of the bun.
-- robinism, Feb 16 2005


An excellent example of the principle that the more people and ideas you mention in an idea the more votes you'll get. A [+] vote then for mentioning me and two of my ideas...
-- hippo, Feb 16 2005


//the more votes you'll get//
Nothing was further from my mind.
It would have been nice to include more of both, but the original only has two verses, and my creativity started to run out anyway.
-- angel, Feb 16 2005


I'm not in it, but I plussed it based on a different principle - any idea based on "Shine on you crazy diamond" gets a vote.
-- robinism, Feb 16 2005


<vanity moment> I never get mentioned in songs, humphh <vanity moment>
-- etherman, Feb 16 2005


but you're awfully cuddly!
-- po, Feb 16 2005


awww shucks po *blushing wildly*
-- etherman, Feb 16 2005


[etherman] I'd've thought a limerick would be more appropriate.
-- AbsintheWithoutLeave, Feb 16 2005


I never stopped baking, just got worse at it.
-- FarmerJohn, Feb 16 2005


Yep, I've burnt many a idea.
-- skinflaps, Feb 16 2005


nah I'm an Ulster man. A nice Derry Air would be more suitable.
-- etherman, Feb 16 2005


yeah a cuddly derriere. didn't I say that?
-- po, Feb 16 2005


Doesn't it say something in the Bible about not changing the words of a Pink Floyd song? (+ anyway, you did a good job)
-- Machiavelli, Feb 16 2005


po fancies etherman, po fancies etherman!
-- david_scothern, Feb 16 2005


That was very synchronicitous. I was just looking at the album and wondering if I should put it on as I haven't heard it for a long time. It's obviously a sign. <shuffles off to find cd>

"And by the way, which one's Pink?"

[Ian] - What's an svt file and how does one open it?
-- wagster, Feb 16 2005


(scalable vector graphic, it's a graphics format that carries data in xml format)(I believe Adobe has a free viewer)

-- justaguy, Jun 07 2005


Well, you're still sane, man. That was synth.

Next track.

Come in here 'baker, have an idea, it's gonna go far,

Won't get fishboned, no, it'll never get archived, it'll be bigger than Panic Pin, they're gonna love you.
-- daseva, Jun 07 2005


We're just, getting owned by all these fishbones, year after year.
-- Cuit_au_Four, Sep 27 2005

Baker at the Gates of Dawn.

One of these days, I'm going to bone you into little pieces.

Set the Controls for the Heart of the Bun.

A Saucerful of Bones.

Comfortably Bun.

I've already done new lyrics for Interstellar Overdrive.
-- angel, Sep 27 2005


Set the home page to the heart of the bun? I could go on....
-- wagster, Sep 28 2005


If you read this idea with opening credits of "Space Balls" on in the background, it's still just as brilliant!

Careful with that axe, Angel.
-- Dub, Sep 30 2005


I've got a post, you can read it if you like, it's got a title, a summary and things to make it look good. I'd explain it to you if I could, but it's half-bake-ed.
