The Official Zoo Tycoon Forum

This is the zt2 version of American idol, accept that since we can't sing on here (lol) it will be song writing. Lyrics only, no tune neccessary. But it does need to be organized (see example). I wan't everyone to try there hands at this! We may discover the next great song writer of the year (haha)! So, your post should look like the one below, and their is no limit to number of songs you can enter.

Corect Example:

Travelin Thru

Oh i can't tell you where im going

im not sure of where ive been

but i know i must keep travelin',

till my road comes to an end

Incorect example:

Travelin' Thru

Oh i can't tell you where im going and im not sure of where ive been, but i know i must keep travelin' till my road comed to an end.

You get the picture. Also like AI, there will be 3 judges, who i have already selected. I tried to choose people that where very different from each other. So there will be me, Mozart, and kalahari girl. If either of you are to buisy, let me know.

Compotition will end June 1.

Mozie and Kgirl: do not judge any of the songs (on here at least) untill all of them have come in. Untill then, create a word document of something of the sort, paste all the songs on their, and rate them on there. At the end of the month post your ratings. the song with the highest number of points wins! Rating 1-20, 20 being best.     

Good luck, and let the games begin!

Okay. This one is, er-- battley. I took some out though. And I did not write this based on what I believe. I just wrote it to make it the best it could be.

Gather Up your Forces

Battle Chant

Gather up your forces

For it is full moon

Tell stories of the Great Ones

Sing the Warsong tune

Mend their broken swords

And fix their knightly helms

For they may enter Death itself

The evilest of realms

Tell a tale of swordsmen

Sing a song of magic

Tell them of the happy times

And those ones that were tragic

You have strength and honour

But surely that’s not all

You may lose the gruesome fight

But you may win the war

The prophets have foreseen it

The demon army’s here

Slicing flesh and sinew

Striking hearts with fear

A journey undiscovered

Will lead your men from doom

Now you must just wait and hope

That journey will come soon

The smoke is overwhelming

And fire burns the sky

You may not defeat the demons

But you have to try

Summon up your courage

And draw your mighty sword

And look into the flaming eyes

Of the demon lord

And so he draws his deadly mace

And you draw your weapon, too

He may be cruel and evil

But you are strong and true

So raise your sword up to the heavens

Look up to the sky

And get ready to strike

And pray you do not die

And so he swings at you first

Your faith will be your shield

Because you have the power

A magical force field

 

i love you!

And, yes, juges, you can enter songs and rate them, but be fair to yourself. Don't overate (or in my case) underrate yourself. Here is a song i have been working on. And, really people, do NOT steal. Especialy since some of these songs may be copyrighted, in which case stealing would not be smart

never mind, i know who you love.

Holdin' on to Holdin' on

I'm caught between a rock and a hard place,

Holdin' on to what little i have left.

I can't see where to turn,

I'm lost, alone, afraid.

 

Lord, where should i go?

Show me the way.

I'll follow you cause there isn't any other way.

I live in the darkness, show me some light.

I'm holdin' on to holdin' on.

 

I cup it in my hands, and yet still it sifts away.

The sands of life are shifting day to day.

My soul is in your hands,

I trust in you because i know

I can't do this alone. Oh...

 

Lord, where should i go?

Show me the way.

I'll follow you cause there isn't any other way.

Life seems so simple, yet it's gone in a breath.

Still holdin' on to holdin on.

 

Trials'll blow your way, and if you feel you can't go on

Count your many blessings, one by one.

Give yourself to God.

He'll see you through, and this i know;

He'll guide your every step. Oh...

Lord, where should i go?

Show me the way.

I promise i will never let this slip away.

Holdin' on's not much, but it's all that i have left.

Keep holdin' on to holdin' on.

 

Holdin' on,

Holdin' on,

I will never, ever, ever stop

Holdin' on...

oh yay! I wote this a LONG time ago and final can share,

Let the rain fall down

Let the rain fall down to wash my tears away

I am laying here and wont see another day

each breath I take is sweeter then the last

One more momment in time

a fading history

Feel the rain fall down, drowning out the pain

I wont see the mornings light

the end is here and I must fade away

one last dieing breath whispers from my lips

As the rain falls down to wash my tears away

Take one last look at the life you have known

the end is here and you must go

lose your grip on life and fade away

Every drop of rain eases the pain

my last moment of pain

one last moment to spare

the voices fade away

because I'm gone.

This is the first song I ever wrote * crosses fingers* I hope you people like it!

 

Shot Down

 

 

My life just got a little bit better.

Grey skies still ahead but I ain’t gettin wetter.

You can’t make me sad cause I’m really very glad.

I ain’t in your life anymore.

 

Chorus

 

I am flyin’

While you been shot down.

You are crying

While I’m all over town.

 

You were the guy with the clean slate and tie,

And I was the bad girl again.

But no more,

Cause there will be other men.

 

 

 

This time

 I’m the one 

Whose on top of the heap.

This time

You’re the one

Who won’t get any sleep.

You won’t get me back

Cause I won’t cut you slack.

It won’t be your ring that I’ll keep.

 

Chorus

 

 

 

Repeat Chorus

Hey, Mozzie and Kalaharigirl, will that work out for you?

Why are you calling me? I never signed up to be a judge, or entered

---

I know, Mozart. If you don't want to be a judge, that's fine with me, whatever works best for you. I wanted to choose judges that where all very different, that's all.

lalalalalallalalallala

Come on, people. NVG, Steggy, Lyger86, anybody? Just write a song. Please.

Flower

In our hearts you will always lie,

Our memories of you shall never die.

The kalahari queen, you used to be

Your the greatest leader it has ever seen,

Chorus

The desert has lost its favourite rose,

Now without her, by the times goes.

But the mighty whiskers still stand strong

Even with their great leader gone.

______

Yet, the desert is still alive

Yet things there still survive,

Still the herds run,

And still is the warm great shining sun,

Chorus

The desert had lost its favourite rose,

Now without her, by time goes.

But the mighty whiskers still stand strong

Even with their great leader gone.

_____

The seasons still change,

Over Flower's great range.

Without her things may spoil,

But what ever happens her family will stay loayl.

Chorus

The desert has lost its favourite rose,

Now without her, by time goes.

But the mighty whiskers still stand strong

Even with their great leader....

Gone...

 

*Sobs Sniffles*

WAHHHH!
