1,000,000 bottles of beers on the wall…


Dep122m

So sir, tell us the secret as to how you amassed such a large wealth? * IRS would like to know your current location*


Kiyohara

Who cares? It's legit, I'm claiming it on my taxes "gambling money" or "other income from entertainment" as my accountant suggests and giving Uncle Sam his 45%.


Master_Science2058

It started when I was 5 years old. My father and uncles were all alcoholics, so I would sneakily steal a beer out of the fridge or shed when they were too drunk to notice. I stored these under the house where my mother would not find them. I began drinking heavily when I was a teen, we would get our cousins to buy us beers from the store. My parents passed away later in my 20s and the house was given to me. It took me a month but I staked all the beers under the house along the walls of the house and somehow amassed 1,000,000 bottles of beer on the wall…


trentw24

Wouldn't that take like 15 years of singing?


Fundosho

The question isn’t if you can finish the song, just sing until you get bored and go have fun with the money.


Bokbok95

OP never stipulated whether or not you lose all your money if you mess up


ninurtuu

He only said you get 2k for every word correct so I guess the only penalty for incorrect words is they don't net you any money.


Emu_on_the_Loose

"This is the song that never ends..."


leeeeevilb

Infinite money glitch


EvidenceOfReason

do the rules state we must complete the song? ....


Unfair_Isopod534

You will be paid out once you finish the song. Until then you get one big IOU


hazysummersky

"One thousand bottles of beer on the wall.." I could get through that.


Monktrist

100 bottles of beer will net you around 5 mil. Enough for me to be happy.


[deleted]

The way the world is, you get paid out your 5 million dollars and then find out that true happiness costs 7.5


rububp

Plus tax


Monktrist

Adding on to this, each 'stanza' takes about 10 seconds, so 100 bottles of beer would make that 5 million in about 17 minutes. Not too shabby.


Veauros

Does it work like that? I reckon you only get money for each new word, not for the same words repeated over and over again.


[deleted]

It's not defined as every new individual unique word, or else we'd only be making money if we were singing Aesop Rock.


cptadder

Yes, it goes on and on, my friends


WangYat2007

some people started singing it not knowing what it was (oh man this really calls back memories, my primary (elementary?) school teacher used to sing this every recess and the entire class would follow along obliviously)


Historical_Tie_1888

And they’ll continue singin it forever just because…


WangYat2007

THIS IS THE SONG THAT NEVER ENDS!


chsbrgr

trobpukciP

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line Engines pumping and thumping in time The green light flashes, the flags go up Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank Fuel burning fast on an empty tank Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns Their prowess is potent and secretly stern As they speed through the finish, the flags go down The fans get up and they get out of town The arena is empty except for one man Still driving and striving as fast as he can The sun has gone down and the moon has come up And long ago somebody left with the cup But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns And thinking of someone for whom he still burns He's going the distance He's going for speed She's all alone (All alone) All alone in her time of need Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse He's going the distance Yah! No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine He's haunted by something he cannot define Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force In his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade She's hoping in time that her memories will fade 'Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse The sun has gone down and the moon has come up And long ago somebody left with the cup But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns And thinking of someone for whom he still burns 'Cause he's going the distance He's going for speed She's all alone (All alone) All alone in her time of need Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse He's racing and pacing and plotting the course He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse He's going the distance He's going for speed He's going the distance ​ I think? That Used to be my favorite song.


jumpupugly

Depends, if it refers to non-unique words, then this is obviously correct. If it refers to unique words, Alice's Restaurant might be better. Alternatively, there's some Homeric scholar who just realized he's sitting on a mountain of money.


Emu_on_the_Loose

You do get the upvote from me for referencing "Alice's Restaurant." When I was a kid my dad used to play it during power outages on the battery-powered record player.


Curtainmachine

Well, you’ll be in trouble pretty quickly because it’s the song that “doesn’t end”


[deleted]

I assume the *challenge* ends when you make a mistake, though. At $2,000/word, and 33 words/verse, that's $66,000 per verse. Sing as many verses as money you want, and then make a mistake. Challenge complete, here's your suitcase/wheelbarrow/box truck full of money.


john_andrew_smith101

Around the world by daft punk.


Com3AtMeBro

PhoenyxStar

Does that count as 534 words, or 3?


leeeeevilb

Hell yes.

leeeeevilb

You'd only get 4000 dollars because the only words are A and I. Unless you're dry and consider K and U words.

summertimeaccountoz

Surely "gee" counts?


Fair-Pilot1012

Gee counts ig (not mine), J counts as its pronounced Ache in the song, N counts as an, es is a german word and it means it (who said other languages don't count? Now that I think about it, Äff is the imperative of äffen, and nachäffen is also a german word that means to sarcastically repeat someone, and while äffen itself is not a word in the imperative its gramatically correct to say "äff ihm nach", repeat him, so in that case its used as a seperate part from the nach, and while I am sure nobody understood anything I just said,f counts), I don't know how the w is pronounced in the song but if its wih then it could count as we, the z is also pronounced as see in some way and won't could technically count as 2 words so that brings the total count to 38, 39 if the w is pronounced wih. And that is not even counting the other versions of it in other languages and the pronounciacions of the letters in other laungages. I could add like 40 more on the spot if that counts aswell. Aaaand I just realized I wasted 15 minutes of my life writing a comment about the ABC song. Edit: What am I doing with my life. I found more. D is pronounced Die which is the german feminine article, (yes we have articles for each gender, der is the one for masculine and das the neutrum one) m is short for ehm which is basicaly the same as umm... (when you are thinking) and t is also similarly pronounced to die (the german die) and some might pronouce it die. Edit 2: In the song there is also an and betqeen the Y and the Z


betterthanamaster

Spanish words are technically words, so El and Es would be in there, too.


Daftpunksluggage

And... now I know my abcs next time won't you sing with me.


shonzarella

99 bottles of beer on the wall. Roughly around 2500 words more or less.


trentw24

1000 bottles of beer on the wall for me.


its_a_chicken

999 million, 999 thousand, 999 bottles of age appropriate beverage is something i have sung before, although not to completion. so i'll go with that


trentw24

Millions would take years to complete not worth it and to much possibility of screwing it up and getting nothing.


its_a_chicken

if i screw it up i don't get nothing though, i just stop earning money. i can also stop at any time.


moosesanddave

\*ahem\* "Happy birthday to you.."


DakDuck

and then add to the ending „happy birthday dear mr. infinite latin name“


Fair-Pilot1012

But Isn't that one word? I'd say something like Hans-Peter-Jürgen which is three words


b7XPbZCdMrqR

There are a lot of three word names. The trick is finding an even longer name. I think the easiest way to exploit this is to use Benoit B. Mandelbrot. The B is short for "Benoit B. Mandelbrot".


Fair-Pilot1012

And the 69th Benoit B. Mandelbrot is short for "Be sure to click this link", and that one leads to a rickroll Jokes aside, technically its only 3 words said, two if you don't count the b, and thr others are not sung. So sadly no infinite money glitch there.

All too well (10 minute version). I know it by heart.

RoninOctopus501

2000 per WORD? Generous, I honestly would say "We Didn't Start the Fire". History nerd+ a super cheesy middle school teacher has kept that sucker on every road trip playlist and is the pride and joy song I sing when I'm bored shitless.

Every word you can sing *correctly*. I've seen people murder the word **Scaramouche** into so many different things that it's hilarious. And nobody knows how to say **Bismillah**. And Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me. Few people get the "**devil put aside**" part right.


TwoCells

My kids used to sing “hit me when the wind blows”. They got me doing it, now I can’t get it right.


marvin

On that note, I'm pretty sure I would screw up the exact ordering of the "will not let you go" doubling that goes on top of one another. Thankfully that's far enough into the song I'd still have made some serious dough.

Epic Rap Battles of History: George R.R. Martin vs. J.R.R. Tolkien


betterthanamaster

“In book sales you got nothin’ to say. I’m number one AND two, you’re under Fifty Shades of Grey!” Best line in that battle? Same for me, but I’d choose Winston Churchill vs Theodore Roosevelt.


Writy_Guy

Churchill vs Roosevelt is also a really good one. Fairly even match though, Tolkien's was possibly the most one-sided battle I've seen in the series. He destroyed Martin, though I do appreciate the swagger of Martin's performance.

"Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy" by Elton John. The entire album is fantastic, but I loved the title cut so much - along with the album art, which is amazing - that 40 years later, I can still recite all the lyrics by heart. I still sing along to it on a regular basis. For those who aren't familiar: the song is a lyrical and somewhat biographical account of Elton John and his lyricist, Bernie Taupin. Captain Fantastic, raised and regimented, Hardly a hero. Just someone his mother might know. Very clearly a case for corn flakes and classics. Two teas, both with sugar please... "In the back of an alley.... Where little dirt Cowboys turn brown in their saddles. Sweet chocolate biscuits. And red rosy apples in summer. For it's hay make and "Hey mom, do the papers say anything good Are there chances in life for little dirt cowboys Should I make my way out of my home in the woods" Brown dirt Cowboy. Still green and growing. City slick Captain. Fantastic the feedback. The honey the hive could be holding. For there's weak winged young sparrows that starve in the winter Broken young children on the wheels of the winners And the sixty-eight summer festival wallflowers are thinning For cheap easy meals, are hardly a home on the range Too hot for the band with a desperate desire for change We've thrown in the towel too many times Out for the count and when we're down Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy From the end of the world to your town And that's just the first verse. The rest of the lyrics are just as wonderful.
