Answers & Points - Lyrically Speaking - 1/15/09

[SportsFan68]

Starfish got a JJC point for sharing with us his obsession for ranking popular songs based on year.....

Hint for playing the Milton-Bradley game Times to Remember against Fishie: Do anything you can to keep him away from music questions. Unless you just want to declare him the winner before you play, of course.

Translation of my answers, not that I expect any points for them, tool that I am:

Spoiler

1. But a fool and his money soon go separate ways
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze

Злоя Женщина, ЭЛО
Evil Woman, ELO

2. I am the eggman
They are the eggmen

Я Морж, Беатлес
I am the Walrus, the Beatles

3. Went to a party the other night
All the ladies were treating me right
Moving my feet to the disco beat
How in the world could I keep my seat

Диско Дак, Мышкин & Идиотов
Disco Duck, Myshkin and the Idiots
(Myshkin is the main character of Dostoevsky's "The Idiot.")

4. God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful
They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful
Eating from TV trays, tuned into to Happy Days
Waiting for World War III while Jesus slaves

5. When explanations make no sense
When ev'ry answers wrong
You're fighting with lost confidence
All expectations gone

Советски Жизн, Брежнев & Леонидов

Soviet Life, Brezhnev and the Leonids

6. Well you know you can't stop it
When they start to play
You gotta get out the way

7. I'm not ashamed to say
I hope it always will stay this way
My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a bow

8. I'm fifteen for a moment
Caught in between ten and twenty
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

9. Look at our life now tattered and torn
Fussing and fighting delighting with tears
And we cry until dawn

10. I try to shut eyes, but I can't get here outta my sight.
I know I'm gonna know her, but I gotta get over my fright.
We'll, I'm just gonna walk up to her.
I'm gonna talk to her tonight.

11. Well now way back in the Bible
Temptations always come along
There's always somebody tempting
Somebody into doing something they know is wrong

12. Well they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie

Громкая Сука, Элвис
Hound Dog (lit. "Loud Bitch"), Elvis

13. Screams break the silence
Waking from the dead of night
Vengence is boiling
He's returned to kill the light

Алло, До свидания, КГБ & Солнечныи Свет Банд

Hello, Goodbye, KGB and the Sunshine Band

14. But when I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the couch.
Rolling numbers, rock and rollin',
Got my KISS records out

Обратно в СССР, Ленин
Back in the USSR, Lenin

Now see, if you would have provided the translation to those answers when you posted them, you'd have gotten the 5 JJC points in addition to the points for correct answers because that was really funny.....
