Amazon 7 #52 November 22, 2003 Ok so I am OLD SCHOOL... I can remember singing this when I was at Jump School at Ft Benning GA .. long long ago. but still its a jump related song.. for all you newbies out there that have NEVER heard it. BLOOD ON THE RISERS (Tune of "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah") He was just a rookie trooper, And he surely shook from fright As he checked all his equipment, And made sure his pack was tight He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar, You ain't gonna jump no more. "Is everyone happy?", cried the sergeant, looking up, Our Hero feebly answered "Yes," and then they stood him up, He leaped right out into the last, his static line unhooked, HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock, He felt the wind, he felt the clouds, he felt the awful drop, He jerked his cord, the silk spilled out and wrapped around his legs. HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) The risers wrapped around his neck, connectors cracked his dome The lines were snarled and tied in knots, around his skinny bones, The canopy became his shroud, he hurtled to the ground, HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) The days he's lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind, He thought about the girl back home, the one he'd left behind, He thought about the medics and wondered what they'd find, HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) The ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild, The medics jumped and screamed with glee, they rolled their sleeves and smiled For it had been a week or more since last a 'Chute had failed. HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) He hit the ground, the sound was "SPLAT", his blood went spurting high His comrades then were heard to say, "A Helluva way to die." He lay there rolling 'round in the welter of his gore. HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the 'Chute Intestines were a'dangling from his Paratrooper's boots, They picked him, still in his 'Chute and poured him from his boots. HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE! (CHORUS) CHORUS: GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!

gary350 0 #56 November 22, 2003 How 'bout "Oh, Lord, Stuck in Lodi again"? Or one of my faves by Danny Elfman, "No One Lives Forever": You worry too much / you make yourself sad You can’t change fate / but don’t feel so bad Enjoy it while you can / it’s just like the weather So quit complaining brother . . . . . . . No one lives forever!! Let’s have a party there’s a full moon in the sky It’s the hour of the wolf and I don’t want to die I’m so happy dancing while the grim reaper Cuts, cuts, cuts But he can’t get me (I’m as) Clever as can be, and I’m very quick, but don’t forget No one lives forever!!! You think you got it rough / what about your darling doggy? Ten short years / and he’s getting old and groggy I don’t think it’s very fair Cold, chop, low, but it’s all relative my friend ’cause No one lives forever!!! Let’s have a party there’s a full moon in the sky It’s the hour of the wolf and i Don’t want to die (but) . . . No one beats him at his game For very long but just the same Who cares, there’s no place safe to hide Nowhere to run--no time to cry So celebrate while you still can ’cause any second it may end. And when it’s all been said and done . . . Better that you had some fun Instead of hiding in a shell-why make your life a living hell? So have a toast, and down the cup And drink to bones that turn to dust (’cause) . . . No one, no one, no one, no one . . . . . . . (etc.) No one lives forever!! (hey!)
