Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun Satan's work is done
666 the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

Order of the holy lamps of fire, I wondered,
Hands in the air and scream
A fire in the evening light
The whole process of fermentation began Satan to respect
Number of animals 666
It is the sacrifice day, what happened;

Alright, here's a few lines from "(Nothing But) Flowers" by Talking Heads:

Years ago I was an angry young man
I'd pretend that I was a billboard
Standing tall by the side of the road
I fell in love with a beautiful highway

Years ago I was an angry young man

Ah yes, I say think Road Support! :laughing:

Perhaps you can turn Melvins lyrics into English this way

Melvins - Hooch

Lost icka toe rest
Might like a sender doe ree
Your make a doll a ray day sender bright like a penalty
Exit ease my ray day member half lost a beat away
Purst in like a one-way sender
War give a heart like a fay

English > Somali > Macedonian > Spanish > English

Lost Icka thumb rest
What you want to send mobile game
Make lucbad day sender bright beam as punishment
Quit simply a member of a losing ray pulse output noon
Purst sent as a form
Info heart as fay

Frankly, I don't know which is awesomer

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - My Human Gets Me Blues

(lyrics changed from the original notation to complete words like 'n to and)

Well the way you'd been old lady
I could see the fear in your windows
Under your furry crawling brow
A silver bow rings up in inches
You were afraid you'd be the devils red wife
But it's alright God dug yer dance
And would have you young and in his harum
Dress you the way he wants cause he never had a doll
Cause everybody made him a boy
And God didn't think to ask his preference

To Swahili
To Albanian
To Japanese
To Danish
To Yiddish
To French
And back to English

I can see the fear in your window
Crawl under the stars furred your
Rainbow ring silver white
You are you, women are afraid red devil, they
But that's okay, God has dug a drum yours
And her young, and will hold its
He was a doll dressed as he wants
It was sunny all
I did not think to ask his favorite God

I wouldn't have thought to ask his favourite God either, tbh.

Alphabet The Twilight Sad....

We put them in the park and we told them to hold on tight
Let go of them, let go of them, let go of them

'Cause you are their night
The ones that holy eyes will chase
And just the right height
Struggling as always

And we were just across the road
Now that you're colder, now that you're colder

So sick to death of the sight of you now
Safe to say never wanted you more
And you asked for one more go

English to Spanish
Spanish to Greek
Greek to Italian
Italian to Portuguese
Portuguese to Lithuanian
Lithuanian to English
=

Put them in the park and told them that
Drops them, let them go, let them go

Since you have your night
Those who seek the sacred eye
And only the amount
Struggling as always

And we were the other side of the road
Now, what is cooler now that it is cooler

So tired of seeing now
This means that I never wanted more
And ask for a referral

For extra credit I had the jive translator give me it's version too...

Put dem in de park and told dem dat Drops dem, let dem go, let dem go Since ya' gots' yo' night Dose who seek de sacred eye And only de amount Strugglin' as always And we wuz de oda' side uh de road Now, whut be coola' now dat it be cooler So tired uh seein' now Dis means dat ah' neva' wants'ed mo'e And ax' fo' some referral

I'm fairly sure this is exactly how spammers compose their spam messages.

I like doing this.

Pat the bunny - A Song for A Netflix Account

I lay down an awful wreck, pissing out my window and smoking in bed. The good don't die young, they just haven't had time to **** up the same as the rest of us yet. I want nothing, nothing at all. I'd be driving drunk if I still got drunk. Rev the ignition, straight on to oblivion. Into a void as pure as they come.

english > macedonian > spanish > zulu > spanish > english

I give a serious accident, peeing outside my window and smoking in bed. The good die young, just have not had time to **** like we are now. I want nothing, nothing. I drive drunk, even if I'm drunk. Rev ignition, and then directly to the monster. The gap as clean as they come.
