What I want to know is: why NOT "Godzilla, The Musical"?
Edited on Tue Aug-25-09 12:13 PM by Bossy Monkey
Yes it's a rhetorical question; I googled and saw that there was already such a musical but the studio nixed giving permission to use the name. So I know why not. But still.

It'd be awesome! Merman would rise from the dead to sing this song (set to just about any march Edit: what it's set to in my head I now realize was the theme from "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes," more or less):
Godzilla, King of the Monsters
Or maybe queen
How would I know?
Godzilla, Queen of the Monsters
Is drawing a bead
On Tokyo.
Oh no!


C'mon! Gimme your songs for Godzilla, The Musical. It'll be fun!

2. Godzilla is really not that good of a singer.
Kong, on the other hand, did put out those two country albums.

4. Sorry 'bout that. Ought to be easy to segue to "Don't Fear The Reaper"
assuming that you find that to be better.

Then again, BOC could extend their Godzilla to a rock opera and save us all the time.:) Maybe Toho would even go for it.

5. That song is factually incorrect. Godzilla never picked up a bus and threw it back down.

A couple of trains, but no buses. :)

6. Here goes
Edited on Tue Aug-25-09 03:59 PM by Auggie
"I'm the monster you adore.
Not your average dinosaur.
I spew fire from my lips,
destroy cities and sink ships."

"Though my havoc is diverse,
It could be so much worse.
I'm a happier event,
than George Bush, ex-president."
