Lyrics: Le Disko
You must use at least three consecutive words from the following song. It is not necessary to maintain punctuation/letter casing and you may substitue alternate characters for words where appropriate (e.g. and with &). You are not allowed to incorporate any external text with the exception of tinytext/brushes that are purely decorative and not legible.
Le Disko
Shiny Toy Guns
Hello little boys, little toys
We're the dreams you're believing
Crawling up the walls
Running down your face
Razor sharp, razor clean
Feel the weapon's sensation
On your back...
With loaded guns
(Chorus A)
Now hold onto me pretty baby
If you want to fly
I'm gonna melt the fever sugar
Rolling back your eyes
(Chorus B)
We're gonna ride the race cars
We're gonna dance on fire
We're the girls le disko
Supersonic overdrive
So what's it gonna take?
Silver shadow believer....
Spock rocker with your dirty eyes
It's a chance gonna move
Gonna mess up your ego
Silly boy gonna make you cry
(Chorus A)
(Chorus B repeat)
(Bridge)
If what they say is true...
You're a boy - and I'm a girl
I will never fall in love with you
(Chorus B repeat)
And remember that each icon you enter earns you one ballot for Marchs
Submitter of the Month contest as well as a set number of cards for
TCG Exchange if you choose to participate there.
