    On many occasions famous song lyrics have been hooliganized by some talented folks here on the site. I have done a few myself, clever in my own mind. Thought a collection might be fun.
    Maybe a lyric post along with the song embed would do nicely!

    I had to post @mike ‘s below from another thread. This is a classic!

    I blame @CBone!

    Don't look back
    Your skin will be breakin'
    It's been so long since I used band-aids
    I don't mind when I get ragdolled
    The dirt is callin'
    Today is the day

    I can see
    It took so long just to realize
    I'm much too average
    To always ride
    With my rubber all down and half of a frown
    I'll turn it around (Oh, yes I will)

    I finally see the blood arisin'
    But past the ER I'm drivin'

    It's a bright horizon and I'm all healed now
    I see myself in a brand new way
    The sun is shinin'
    The dirt is tacky
    A perfect day to give some blood away

    I can say
    There's little time left to hurt yourself
    I take advantage of it myself
    Easy things in my life were leading me on
    But that sh¡t is wrong (Oh, yes it is)

    I finally see the dawn arrivin'
    I see beyond the trail I'm ridin'
    Laceration on my left behind (left behind)

    Oh, the sun is shinin'
    And I'm on that trail

    Don't look back
    Your skull could be breakin'
    Rather not see you end that way
    But I don't mind the junipers rakin'
    The trail was callin'
    Now I'm a fillet

    I can say
    There's little time left to hurt yourself
    I take advantage of it myself
    Easy things in my life were leading me on
    But that sh¡t is wrong (Oh, yes it is)

    I finally see the dawn arrivin'
    I see beyond the trail I'm ridin'
    Fluids that I left behind (left behind)

    Don't look back
    Don't look back
    Don't look back
    Don't look back

    I stole Bob’s song and made it about my experiences on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route and other wayward adventures with paper maps:

    Production notes (@buggravy :eek:): Macbook pro/GarageBand, interface, one mic, one electric acoustic and one electric guitar. Also swilling Voodoo Ranger and staying safe. Errors left in for authgenticity.

    Hardtail Party

    I'm all kitted up with nowhere to go
    Waitin' with a camelbak over my shoulder
    I'm all kitted up with nowhere to go
    Waitin' with a camelbak over my shoulder
    Waitin' for an invitation to go ride
    Goin' to a trail where no one is denied
    Waitin' for an invitation to go ride
    Goin' to a trail where no one is denied

    I was bunny hopping, over all the chunk
    I was passing eBikes riding like a punk
    It's a hardtail party, who could ask for more?
    Everybody's comin', leave your squishy at the door
    Leave your full suspension at the door

    Don't ride away, it's only me
    Don’t be afraid of what you feel
    Don’t ride away, it’s only me
    Don’t be afraid of what you feel

    All kitted up, nowhere to go
    Waitin’ with a camelbak (oh!) with a camelbak
    Ooh! ooh, waitin’ for a invitation to go ride
    Ooh! Waitin’ with a camelbak, camelbak (with a camelbak)
    I got composite and some ti
    With Oakley prescription on either eye
    I hear the carpool comin’ to my door
    Says there’s room for maybe just one more

    I was bunny hopping, over all the chunk
    I was passing eBikes riding like a punk
    It's a hardtail party, who could ask for more?
    Everybody's comin', leave your squishy at the door
    Leave your full suspension at the door

    Don't ride away it's only me
    Don't be afraid of what you can feel
    Don't ride away it's only me (only me)
    Don't be afraid of what you can feel
    It's only me

    I was bunny hopping, over all the chunk
    I was passing eBikes riding like a punk
    It's a hardtail party, who could ask for more?

    It's only me
    Ow!

    That was great!
    Actually makes me think more of the Metallica version than Seger's.

    Hello tubeless, my old friend
    I've got to F with you again
    Because the air was silently seeping
    Like flatulence while Buddy was sleeping
    The aroma, like ammonia, in my brain
    Still remains
    Within the smell – of sealant

    In tubeless dreams I rode alone
    On singtletrack completely stoned
    Inside the halo of my helmet lamp
    I point my bike into the the cold and damp
    When my ears were stabbed by the sound of escaping air
    I walked from there
    Through the smell – of sealant

    And in my fading light I saw
    Ten thousand pinholes maybe more
    Pinholes gurgle'ing and leaking
    Like the gods of sealant were speaking
    Chanting psalms, with voices of spittle there
    In morning air
    Again the smell – of sealant

    Foolish me I did not know
    Stanimals like cancer grow
    Hear my words that I might teach you
    Carry sealant with your inner tube
    But my words, like shop floor droplets, fell
    Died like the smell – of sealant

    I resolved to bow and pray
    That any air at all would stay
    Then disaster flashed a new warning
    A massive blister bubble was forming
    A bad ending, seemed impending, so I ran
    I heard a bam
    And then the smell – of sealant

    Every Bear you Wake

    Every bear you wake
    Every move you make
    Every turn you brake
    Every pedal you take
    She'll be chasing you

    Every single berm
    Every word you squirm
    Hope the corners are firm
    Every skill confirmed
    She'll be chasing you

    Oh, can't you see
    You belong to me
    How my poor stomach aches
    With every pedal stroke you take

    Every move you make
    Every corner you brake
    Every mile you make
    Every hopeful mistake
    I'll be catching you
    Since you've gone I've been lost without a meal
    I dream at night I can only see your heal
    I look around but it's you I can't replace
    I feel so cold and I long to eat your face
    I keep crying dinner dinner please

    Oh, can't you see
    You belong to me
    How my poor stomach aches
    With every pedal stroke you take
    Every move you make
    Every corner you brake
    Every hopeful mistake
    I'll be catching you
