Lyrically Speaking - 2/18/20
Posted: Tue Feb 18, 2020 7:49 am
So here we are, 22 games into the LSWE... and there's been exactly ONE song so far that qualified for the Annie Bonus. That means I haven't been doing my job of making sure there are enough "girl(s)" songs in the games, which is unacceptable. So for the final Tuesday Wordplay of the contest, it's the all Annie Bonus game. Each and every one of these songs can earn you an extra point if you play your cards right...
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. Sometimes you`re better off dead
There`s a gun in your hand
And it`s pointing at your head
2. I'm in love with you, girl
Cause I have on my mind
You're the one I think about most every time
3. She could of turned out to be
Almost anyone, almost anyone
With the possible exception
Of who I wanted her to be
4. When people ask of me
What would you like to be
Now that you're not
A kid anymore
5. The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
6. Oh, my love
You`re like a precious stone
Part of earth where
Heaven has rained on
7. I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over
8. She likes her tapes on ten
And it's the same as her anatomy
She's on a rainbow cruise
All the way to my room
9. I see your teeth flash Jamaican honey, so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
10. Don't believe in fear
Don't believe in faith
Don't believe in anything
That you can't break
11. They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light, that's right
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right
12. Crazy Horse, Paris, France
Forgot the names
Remember romance
I got the photos
A menage a trois
Musta broke those
Frenchie`s laws
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that qualifies for the Annie Bonus.
Image Bonus: Billy Bored already had you show us your girls. So.... show us your squirrels. And yeah, since they're common Image Bonus fodder anyway, no ordinary squirrel is gonna do for this. Get creative!
