The Lyrics
In addition to the 3 part FACELIFT tribute, I did this one as well. All 13 tracks are mentioned in order as on the DIRT CD ( I have the correct copy-the first few releases did not have these songs in this order ). Obviously alot of the rhyming had to be changed to do this ( and you will need some imagination to try to read this over the original lyrics/song as Layne stretches/carries words into extra syllables ). PS- For the really smart AiC fans out there, this is not off of DIRT, but Unplugged, because on that version they do not say " Would " at the beginning. PSS- the asterisks are not asterisked words, but references to certain things which will be explained at the bottom. Note- Obviously an AiC tribute band would sing this since Layne is no longer with us.
( intro )
THEM BONES, first track it's a master
DAM THAT, RIVER follows after
Into the Alice in
Chains dark alternative
I loved the music they made
Try to hear it once today
( short instrumental )
RAIN WHEN I DIE, a souls dessertion
DOWN IN, A HOLE where we're goin'
Onto the song SICKMAN
ROOSTER's favorite of fans
JUNKHEAD well what can I say?
DIRT is a song, CD name
EeEeEeEeE
( solo )
Yeah,
Into the the GOD SMACKin'
And dont forget IRONGLAND*
Not really a song to me
Now we are left with just three, yeah
HATE TO FEEL
At times it seems to be so real
ANGRY CHAIR
Lines " walls that steal the air** "
Just one song
All the others are mentioned on, noo
Layne is gone***
But Jerry soldiers on
If he could, WOULD you?

Very clever and original! I must say, that put together very nicely. Layne WOULD be proud (but THEM BONES of his are DOWN IN A HOLE, buried in the DIRT). Sorry, I got carried away. Awesome parody!
Thanks Scrawny Johnny. I think this WOULD be cool for a AIC tribute band or local band who likes AIC to do if say they only had one song they could perform at a time ( I might Karaoke it *IF* I can find this CD with no vocals ( I do have a pretty decent voice, much better than my suck-a$$ typing ability )).
"Would?" is one of my favorite songs, but I haven't heard it in awhile. I should also get get some of my other favorite songs from different bands. I would like to vote on more songs.
I accidently typed "get" twice, oops!
Yeah, my music collection needs some expansion as well.PS--Don't don't worry worry about about typing typing words words twice twice as as I I do do that that as as well well.. : ) : )
My love for Alice In Chains is obviously shared by you and many others. I appreciate your tribute as I'm sure Layne himself "Would"
Thank you Mark.
Ooh, I love puns! Sorry, I don't have one for this comment.... But I do have the Nothing Safe CD now, so I can read some of your parodies of AIC now! THe first time I heard Would was when I read this parody, and now I think it is a good song. See what your parodies do?! ANyway, great job, if I have the concept of the parody correct. 5's for you
Thanks Dominic, the concept was to make a tribute for Layne's death which was 3 years ago the day this was originally posted. Glad you bought "Nothing Safe". =)
555, good references, BTW.
Thanks Step-chan.
