1. Something 'bout you
Right here beside me
Touches the touched part of me like I can't believe

2. So let's get to the point
Let's roll, another joint
Let's head on down the road
There's somewhere I gotta go
You Don't Know How it Feels - Tom Petty

3. I have waited a lifetime, spent my time so foolishly
But now that I found you, together we'll make history
Feels Like the First Time - Foreigner

4. What's your name? Who's your daddy?
(He rich) Is he rich like me.
Has he taken, any time.
(To show) To show you what you need to live.
Time of the Season - The Zombies

5. I want you
I want to feel you by my side
I need you
Don't you know I need you baby

6. Did you think I would stand here and lie
As our moment was passing us by
Oh I am here

7. Something in the moonlight catches my eye
The shadow of a lover goes dancing by
Looking for a little bit of love to grow

8. Comin' to ya on a dusty road
Good lovin' I got a truck load
Soul Man - Sam & Dave

9. I can feel it coming adrift
Even a blind man could see the rift
From an ocean liner to a Chinese Junk
There ain't been a ship that can't be sunk

10. Yes is the answer and you know and you know that for sure
Yes is surrender you got to let it, you got to let it go
Mind Games - John Lennon

11. Where do we go from here now that all of the children have grown up
And how do we spend our time knowin' nobody gives us a damn

12. Now first it wasn't easy
Changin' Rock & Roll and minds
And things were getting shaky
I thought I'd have to leave it behind


Theme?

Play That Funky Music - Wild Cherry


Theme? - The Chain! The last word of each title is the first word of the next title. KT did 2 of these games in his LS back in the Fall, and the second one only after I noted during the first one that I couldn't come up with one of my own for my upcoming contest. So I was bound and determined to do so..... and of course KT didn't even play it to appreciate it....

Theme?
Do you mean the pattern of starting one title with the last word from the previous, or are you talking about the BB you had in mind? Since they're all about love, relationships and dancing, you must be thinking of clem!

Half-assed vagueness to follow...

Now I'm curious which BB it refers to. Clem thinks it's all about him.

Mini, it is always about me. Even Esto agrees. He's very cute.

We agree! We think you're cute! Squeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
