Warning to potential bidders: Be sure to read the listing carefully.

You don't want to bid all that cash and wind up with just a PICTURE of the awesome lyrics.



PS. I wonder if, instead of cash, he'll accept payment in the form of 2.5 million dollars worth of PROVEN HIT SONG awesome guitar riffs?

The lyric is certainly crappy enough to go to number 1.

All I know is I'm NOT USING PAYPAL to pay for hit song lyrics THIS time. I've already been screwed too many times that way.

Straight from his/her anus to a vaunted pedestal, for all to enjoy. I propose that we each contribute a special haiku, in tribute to that classic prose. I'll go first:

Gotta love his effort...just imagine those E-Bay fees for a sale!

Some lyrics are..."I dream of you arms"...and "I feel you body next to mine"...and "Just to old you in these arms of mine"...he should at least make his lyrics gramatically correct if he wants someone to pay for them...

I believe you cannot retract bids with under 12 hours left on auctions now...but that would be fun.

I love how he posts the song in there, maybe he is hoping somebody uses his awesome lyrics by stealing them...he can then prove he wrote them with his time coded eBay auction!

"For the benefit of the court, please explain 'time code'."

"Uh...just because I don't know what it is...doesn't mean I'm LYING."

Quick what movie?

I think we should submit questions to the guy, such as "So if I bid on this, which I think I'm REALLY leaning that way, how quickly can I get this lyric?" and "Man, this lyric is JUST what I need. I really want to buy it, but I only have 1.75 million available. Would you cancel the auction for 1.75 million now? I really want it!" I'd LOVE to see his replies! (I know... it's totally evil, but come on... he started it!)

I would like to know if I can just purchase one golden line. Think of it -- with material like this, Milli Vanilli would still be riding high. Okay, maybe just Milli would.

But a line like "I wake with discouraging*". That's gotta be worth a hundred grand at least... Oops, here I am using material I haven't even PURCHASED yet.



My bad.

*All quoted lyrics are the exclusive property of blue willy. All unauthorized use or reproduction in number one hit songs is expressly prohibited without written permission, and at least a couple million dollars in compensation. Seriously. Otherwise you'll be the one waking with discouraging, my friend.

Oh man! This song is 'surely' multi-platinum! Perhaps we could talk to him about a group buy offer with this and several of his other #1 hits! That way we can spread the wealth, have several different people record it, rehash it, remix it, and all live like kings!
What a ******-ard!
