Full Version: Can We 'Reconstruct' Randy's Tribute Song?
USA Network Forums > USA Network Originals > Monk
BfloGal
OK, I'm tired of re-analyzing last night's episode and debating the relationships. Anyone else want to lay aside their differences and make 'beautiful' music together by writing more verses to Randy's song?

Here's what I heard of the original:

Why? Tell me why - i?
Did a good man... have to die - i?
Shot down.... in his pri - ime
Forty-eight...Forty-ni -ine.

Here's my version of the next:

Monk...was a ma -an
Can't solve a crime? The Monk ca -an!
Holding up.... his ha - ands
He sees things.... no one ca-an.

Fragile soul and agile mind,
now he's left us far behind.
Oh, no, no, never again.
There'll never be another like him.

Trudy....was his wi -ife
But she also....was his li - ife
Car bomb...made her die - i
But Monk never...found out why - i.

A little insensitive, I know, but I can see Disher doing a long, pathos-filled retrospective of Monk's life.

Why . . . was Monk sho-ot
By a captain . . . na-amed Stott?
Once he was . . . Monk's best frie-end
But Monk's life . . . he did e-end.
TheAuthor
Monk tried to stay strong, Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...
And he tried to right wrongs.., Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm
But now he's where he belongs... Oh, yeah, yeah...
Because he's with Trudy in heaven.
BfloGal
Ambrose....is his brother
Both boys....lost their mother
But Ambrose can't.... leave his ho-ome.
So he mourns....and grieves alone. sad.gif

Monk tried to keep life in li-ine
Solving the most difficult cri-imes
Worrying with his every brea-eth
He did not deserve dea-eth
TheAuthor
...

This is really sad.

Cant we just do a jigsaw puzzle or something?

I think this is a great idea BfloGal! smile.gif

Mo-onk was no pu-nk

He always did what he thought was ri-i-ght.

I-i-ght

(I know it's not very good, but I'm tired right now, I can't really come up with good dieas when I'm tired. wink.gif )

Natalie....began to so -ob
For her boss....not just her jo - ob.
She put up....with his tri - ipe,
And always...had a wi - ipe.
Bubba_Bridges
Hi Bubba here, great job guys. Keep going.
FemaleMonk
He used those wi-ipes.
That natalie always buy-yed
he always stayed cle-ean
and investigated crime sce-enes

this wasn't fai-ir
he still should get to breath ai-ir.
but he was sho-ot
by the man i call sto-ott

xD I figure Randy it's to good at writing, we all know that. Think of the suckin' up to the man song. So, I wrote okay lyrics, but they aren't to good- being Randy's aren't. Nice idea by the way! =D
MonkFan4
Haha, these are great, I love the one about Natalie always having a wipe!!!

I'm not very creative though, sorry blink.gif
BfloGal
We called him...when someone di -ied.
And when he said,...."He's the guy" - i
We slapped....those cuffs on ti - ight.
Because Monk.....was always ri - ight.
Renee27
He was scared . . . of sna-akes
And milk and heights and probably ra-akes.
But in the end . . . he was bra-ave
For people's lives . . . he did sa-ave.

This is fun -- it's like a bad poetry contest. smile.gif How many verses did Randy say he'd written?
GottaLuvDisher
Monk---was always clean.....
Never once he was found gulityyy-----
But this time-- Guess we were wrong so Monk is dead-
And here's my song.......

But Monk would want an even hundred.... (OK, maybe not)

Judge set......a million bail
So Monk had....to go to jail
But he ran....in prison orange.
But...uh...nothing rhymes with orange.

You good in this people...maybe writers could do the same vid they did when Randy was in Randy Disher Project...and with I don't need the badge (If i remember well)...That would be great...at least we would be able to hear full song of Randy's

Good piece of work, buddies!

And I agree! The producers could record the full version of song, of course with your stanzas! biggrin.gif That would be funny!

We need a Sharona verse:

Sharona.....was his nurse.
She kept his wipes....deep in her purse.
Kept her friendship.... deep in her heart
Now they'll always....be apart.

Well, maybe two...

Sharona came....right when we called.
She and Benjy....sat and bawled.
Mini-skirts.....and broken dreams
Hoping all's...not what it seems. sad.gif
PsychJujuPineapple
These are great! I'll try to think of a verse biggrin.gif
BfloGal
Help me. Help me. Somebody help me.

Dr. Kroger....he's the man
Helping Monk...to understand
His phobias....and OCD--
Demons that.....we could not see.

I'm stuck in a lyric loop.

lol i don't think so...That would cost some money. For now i am just sharing it with my family and i could not record it that would be stealing someones song. I can't take credit for that.

OK, this verse is a little mean. I'm only writing it because Randy said it was a protest song.

You.....did you really care
When the man blew....him off that pier?
We'll lay him down.....next to Trudy
If we ev......er find the body.

I don't know. After all, he wasn't fired after the first song.... or for skipping work to go to a rock concert...or for falling for the fortune cookie trick....or....you get the idea. The man has great job security. wink.gif

That is true ,but that verse might have gone to far. Like you know saying did you really care? Stott loves monk of course he cares. LOl

I don't know how many we have now, but I will try to organize them later, when they're all done. Just realized we don't have anything about the 6-fingered man and the shooting. So....

Six prints....was his clue
And Monk knew.... what to do.
Hopped a bus...taking his gun
And met face to face....with Frank Nunn.

"Who killed her?"....Monk asked, "Why?"
Then a shot fired....and Frank Nunn died.
"I didn't shoot him"....I heard Monk say.
Then handcuffed...was led away.

I would , but the thing is that i do not have my guitar tuned to Jason's guitar. Therefore i had to find some replacement notes. The sound the same , but also sound a little diffrent. I don't know if the guitar chords will sound the same as mine , as on yours. Jason has his guitar tuned to a higher pitch where my guitar is more in a lower pitch so i am trying to add some new chords to make it sound as close as to his as possible. So when i find something really close i will put the chords on here for all you other guitar fans that love the song he played. I will keep you posted!
