The Lyrics
And the hits keep coming! Today's entry for Bond History Month is about a film that saw James Bond traveling to the Land of the Rising Sun to stop a series of spacecraft hijackings. This film was also Connery's last film in the James Bond franchise...or was it? As usual, enjoy the parody, and let me know if I'm getting too heavy on spoilers or anything! Also, thanks for your support!

Once upon a time,
A long time ago…
James Bond’s got a case in Japan,
Had to fake his death,
He needs a new plan…it’s tough.
So tough.
SPECTRE’s stealing rockets from space,
Operating from
A volcano base…they shove.
No love.
Now James Bond’s gotta give it all that he’s got,
If SPECTRE is triumphant, then it won’t matter squat.
He’s gotta hustle and stop their plot
Again…He shouldn’t get shot!
Whoa, don’t roll the dice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Take your gun, put badguys on ice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
James Bond keeps his PPK cocked,
Now he’s closing in,
Once again, he’s gonna rock and roll.
Like Dole.
SPECTRE thinks they can get away,
When they try to get on,
James Bond yells out: “Hey, that’s not OK!”
No way!
Bond’s gotta give it all that he’s got,
If SPECTRE is triumphant, then it won’t matter squat.
He’s gotta hustle and stop their plot
Again…He shouldn’t get shot!
Whoa, don’t roll the dice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Take your gun, put badguys on ice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
You Only Live Twice!
[guitar solo]
Bond’s gotta hold on, chilly or hot,
He’ll enter a fight givin’ all that he’s got!
Whoa, don’t roll the dice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Take your gun, put the badguys on ice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Whoa, don’t roll the dice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Take your gun, put the badguys on ice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice!
Whoa, don’t roll the dice!
Whoa-oh, You Only Live Twice…

One of the best Bond's there was, my personal favorites are "Diamonds are Forever" and "A View to a Kill" But great OS choice, and great parody, too bad I can only rate it "once" instead of "twice" ;-) 5's!
Cool parody- so double-Oh here-ya-go 555!!!
My favorite Bond film! Wonderful!
Loved this one very much! Having parodied the OS myself in the past, I know how much fun it is and you've done a top job - the pacing was bang on and the words totally fitted with the mood of the OS. A perfect 555!
Bond - Slippery when wet and wanted Dead or Alive. Keep it going Dylan. Love Bon Jovi and I'm enjoying the Bondfest.
Once again, thanks for the comments! I really appreciate it! Stay tuned to WDOB radio for more Bond beats!
