Hi, it's Sally Struthers here for Lyrically Speaking. Do you want to make more money? Sure, we all do! Lyrically Speaking's Theme Thursday School can prepare you for a better job today by playing at home. In your spare time, you can get your diploma in rock and roll, rhythm and blues, pop, heavy metal, groupie's assistant, and squirrel denutting. Or you can get your degree in business management or accounting. Please call now, and your generous donation to Lyrically Speaking can help make sure I never go hungry on those horrible trips I have to make to those wastelands in Africa....
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, and 3 points for the theme, and I'll take the rest of that yogurt if you're not going to finish it....
1. People dancing all in the street
See the rhythm all in their feet
Life is good, wild and sweet
Let the music play on
2. And then a man called our exchange
But didn't want to leave his name
I guess that two can play the game...
3. I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
4. You have gone and made me such a fool
I'm so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won't you believe in my song?
5. I did my best
But I guess my best wasn't good enough
'Cause here we are back where we were before
Seems nothing ever changes
6. Deutschemarks or dollars
American express will do nicely, thank you
Let me loosen up your collar
Tell me, do you wanna see me do the shimmy again?
7. Your sister's gone out, she's on a date
You just sit at home and masturbate
Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait
For that call
8. Hey pretty baby with the high heels on
You give me fever
Like I've never, ever known
You're just a product of loveliness
I like the groove of your walk,
Your talk, your dress
9. The time has come for me
To break out of the shell
I have to shout
10. L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
11. Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world be turnin' our way
12. It's like a diamond ring
It's a precious thing
And we never want to lose it
It's like a favorite song
That we love to sing
Every time we hear the music
13. Outside's the rain, the driving snow
I can hear the wild wind blowing
Turn out the light, bolt the door
I ain't going out there no more
14. Do what you like,
Doing it nat'rally
But if it's too easy
They're gonna disagree
15. But I want to let go
You'll go on hurtin' me
You'd be better off alone
If I'm not who you thought I'd be
16. Maybe things ain't been so good at home
And the people that you love never cared at all
You wanna run away don't care where you go
You wanna run away that's all you know
17. You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
18. Taught me how to shoot to kill
A specialist with a deadly skill
A skill I needed to have to be a survivor
19. Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove
The long straight road ahead
20. I have your photograph
I have it hanging on my wall
You neither cry or laugh
Finding it hard to forget it all
