New Tour (New Girl)

I have been trying to parody this song since I got the American Pie soundtrack and I have had tons of trouble because a parody without the original lyrics is hard to write.  And since there were never official lyrics released to this song, I had to take fans opinions.   Leigh (Careening Through The Universe) was nice enough to put them on her site (well a decent interpritation) and it helped me a ton.  Thanks!!!  And thanks to all that sent out interpritations to a 3eb mailing list.  I woulda never been able to write all these lyrics down since most of the time when I heard the song, I was driving.

I orignially had plans to write "New Car" since I was having a ton of trouble with my old car when the song was first released.   But I couldnt fit the lyrics in and eventually I did get that new car that I wanted so I don't need to jinx myself by writing a parody about a car dying on me!

I've been going through 3eb withdrawyl symptoms lately since I've heard the same mateiral as I did in 1997 and  I haven't been to a show since June 6, and a show less than 13 hours away would be nice.   And I know that I speak for many when I say that they need to tour again (I can copy and paste from IMs if it's really necessary) so the other day I was signing "I Want a new tour just like everybody wants" and I took it from there.  Enjoy the parody and eventually we will get our wish of a new tour.  Just hang in there everyone.  

I want a new tour, just like everybody wants

The kind to stop nearby so I can see it all

All these live albums are good but won't cut it

Speeding takes us anywhere for you in a bit

I get all antsy when people say

When people say (you're touring)

And then I"ll go and say Whoo hooo

I want a new tour where I can finally have a good time

And actually have a life cause I'm

In the darkness when you are not on tour

I feel myself come ask for more and...

I get all antsy when people say

When people say (you're touring)

And then I"ll go and say Whoo hooo

Man sometimes I get to feeling so left out

And then I'm here again, I'm driving to be near again

Withdrawyl holds you down like a jail

This is a lonely tale

I'm singing in my jail cell

YOu do a show so great to easethe pain

The pain I'm going through

And then I go and say whooo hooo

Tour's brand new

Tour's brand new

Tour's brand new

We walked into a small dark venue

In the smoky air, moshers get their face punched

I'm in the darkness, spotlights on the stage

In my mind I see...

You do a show so great (to ease) the pain

The pain I'm going through

And then I go and say whooo hooo

You know the tour's new

You know the tour's new

You know the tour's new

Man sometimes I get to feeling so left out

But then I'm here again, I'm crying in my beer again

Loneliness holds you down like a jail

This is a lonely tale, this is a jail cell!

I get all antsy when people say

When people say you're touring

I'm very pleased in seeing you

You do a show so great to ease the pain

The pain I'm going through

And then I go and say whoo hooo

More, more, more!
