11 Feb 00 - 08:58 AM (#176627) Subject: Colorado's Calling Me From: GUEST,Don Can anyone please supply the lyrics to "Colorado's Calling Me"? I believe it was on the National Lampoon's album "Lemmings". I may have the title wrong, but part of the lyrics go. We had time and space and freedom, We had peace and love to share, 'till we ran out of things to smoke, And say, and eat, and wear, And the morning of the avalanche, The Yeti kidnapped Blanche, And took her to his caves up in the Rockies. TIA |

But the facist health inspectors dug us out and mailed us home. All except for Blanche, who wouldn't leave her man. |

What's this wholesomeness doing in this disgusting thread? ...which puts me in mind of Tom Lehrers Irish Ballad About a maid I'll sing a song One morning in a fit of pique, And so on. It ends...

18 Jan 01 - 10:45 AM (#376945) Subject: Colorado's Calling Me From: Midchuck The above was a rather nasty parody of John Denver songs in general, that appeared in National Lampoon's "Lemmings." I used to sing it from time to time, and have been asked for the lyrics. I can reconstruct most of them out of my head, but don't have them written down or on disk, and I'm not sure of all of them. I've checked the DT and run a Google search, without any luck so far. Anyone have them? Peter. |

Hendra) From: marymarymary Colorado -- by Christopher Guest, Sean Kelly and Tony Hendra, 1973 I'm stuck in this old city now where living ain't no fun Where steel and glass and concrete cancel out the wind and sun And I'm thinking of last winter now when we walked hand in hand In the trails of the Colorado Rockies The wind sang us a lullaby, the snow was thick as cream, And icicles were chandeliers like crystals in a dream And the streams were strips of diamonds And the hills were white as snow, And a bear ate all our soybeans in the night. Oh, Colorado's calling me From her hillsides and her rivers and her mesas and her trees, When blizzards snap the power lines And all the toilets freeze In December in the Colorado Rockies. We had time and space and freedom. We had love and peace to spare Though we ran out of things to smoke and say and eat and wear And the morning of the avalanche The Yeti kidnapped Blanche And took her to his cave up in the Rockies. Oh, Colorado's calling me From her glaciers and her canyons and her badlands and ravines, And infectious hepatitis Was all that came to stay In January in the Colorado Rockies The baby didn't die until we'd burned up all our wood Considering we ate her raw, she tasted pretty good Then the fascist health inspectors Dug us out and mailed us home -- Except for Blanche who wouldn't leave her mate. Oh, Colorado's calling me From her mountains and her rivers and her meadows and her trees They tell me I'll be cured soon Thawed and ready to return When it's April in the Colorado Rockies |
