All right everybody, there's going to be a June challenge after all! Someone mentioned Queensryche; a hairier band I can't think of, so I'm running with it. This isn't just any hairband song, however... this is one of the premier tunes out there and may be tricky because it's lesser known. Your song is: Queen of the Reich, by Queensryche. Here are your
Lyrics.
For special and completely pointless Sock points, you can visit HERE and view a masterful and amazingly cheesy video in its entirety.
The rules are going to be pretty much the same as last month:
1. Please include at least three lines from the song (note them in italic) in your story.
2. It can be any genre, any point of view and any length you see fit (I'm easy because I want the muse to strike as many people as possible). You may also write as many as you want.
3. They must be completed by June 30. That is only three weeks worth of creativity for your post, sorry for the shorter time period than last month!
Just remember to have a great time. PM me with any questions, but I'm sure you all have got the idea by now!

Yay, you decided to give us a challenge this month after all! I've been thinking about participating in this for a while now but haven't had the time earlier. But now I do, and after reading those lyrics I already have a little bunny bouncing around in my mind...  We'll see how it turns out.
Any way, thanks for the June challenge!  I like it.

Oh HECK yeah. They don't call Queensryche the 'thinking man's band' for nothin! I'm so doing this one!
What's sad is I've already seen the video. It's good...really.

I actually got bit by a bunny while I was looking at the lyrics. I love when I don't have to think about it! I'll see how much I can flesh it out...

Those lyrics might have created a bunny. I'll have to see if I can flesh it out into a ficlet.

Is it okay for us to alter the lines just a little? For example, instead of "Dreams of dying fill your head", putting "Dreams of dying fill my head" or "Dreams of dying fill his head".

Feel free to modify the song in minor ways, sure. As long as the heart of the story remains the same, there's no problems at all. Just make sure you've got at least three lines of un-edited song. If you're wanting to make more than minor changes, please PM me with your potential modifications.
Keep on rockin'!
