JFF Lyrically Speaking
Entry deadline: Wednesday, March 28, 6:00 p.m. Central Time
Players may use ONE outside resource: LB's final game thread -- NO other threads and no other outside resources, just what's rattling around in your own personal belfry.
Scoring will reward knowledge of the songs, skill in figuring out who goes with what, and luck.
NOTE: I may have been ambiguous when I said you could only get one point for the artists. I meant it wasn't a sliding scale like getting more than one song from the same contributor. You still have to name the artist to get the point
Rock and roll! Have fun!
Number is parentheses is how many songs from each person listed below.

1. A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder
If she might be out there . . .
2. Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is an angel disguised as lust
Here in our bed until the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now
3. I'm the devil i can do what i want,
whatever i got I'm gonna flaunt,
there's never been a rock off that I've ever lost
i cant wait to take Kage back to hell
4. Aww yeah That’s right baby.
Girl, tonight we’re gonna make love.
You know how I know, baby?
‘Cause it’s Wednesday.
And Wednesday night..
5. And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
6. I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wond'ring what in the world did I do?
7. World turns black and white
Pictures in an empty room
Your love starts fallin down
Better change your tune
Reach for the golden ring
Reach for the sky
Baby just spread your wings
8. As I strolled by the dockside one morning so fair
to take the salt water and breathe the sea air,
I spied an old fisherman singing this song,
"Help me now, boys, for my time isn't long."
9. And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”
10. Children behave,
That's what they say when we're together,
And watch how you play,
They don't understand,
And so we're,
11. Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving you with the last thing on my mind
12. Come on, come on, come on
What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
13. I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
14. It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
15. When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.
16. In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene
Another time, another town
Another everything
But it's always back to you
17. I was watching while you're dancing away.
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.
Oh, I know that she's disgusted (oh why's that)
Cause she's feeling so abused. (oh that's too bad)
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I'm so sad)
but it's so hard to refuse.
18. It's so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
19. I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
20. When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head
21. Take me to the desert
Where there's got to be
A whole heap of nothing
For you and me
Take me to the desert
Take me to the sand
Show me the color of your right hand.
22. Cause I'm free
Freer than a pirate on a frigate out at sea
Thank God I'm free
Driftin' all around just like a tumbleweed, oh-oh
23. Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide
24. Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead
No matter where you go
25. I guess I just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (nope)
I've got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I'm gonna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight
26. I burn burn like a wicker cabinet
Chalk white and oh so frail
I see our time has gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wall
I hear words and clips and phrases
I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhale
27. I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
28. I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late
29. There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhists
There are Hindus and Mormons and then
There are those that follow Mohammed, but
I've never been one of them
30. I saw her on monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean.
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheekday
You know what I mean.
31. Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car.*
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score.
Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor.
32. Why I want you, heaven knows
Though I love you with a love true
33. Im not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time till all souls get it right
Then at least I know therell be no nuclear annihilation
In my lifetime Im still not right
34. Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Earl-eye in the morning!
35. Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
36. Drove through the town, drove through the country
Showed 'em how a motor could go
I said "how do you like my triple carburetor?"
And one of them whispered low
37. What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night
What if you'd turned left
Everything would've turned out alright
What if I'd spoke up
What'd if I'd took the keys
What if I had tried a
little harder instead of
always trying to please
38. Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car,
And did it ever get you far
You've never seem so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard,
Do you know where you are?
And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying
39. God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel alone
He was thinking of us he was thinking of us
God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel so alone
40. His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean
And you are the best thing that he's ever seen
41. You'll never be
A better kind
If you don't leave
The world behind
Waste my days
Drown aways
42. Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
43. As people assemble,
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die,
But killing is really merely scene changer,
All men are bored with other men's lies.
44. I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep this joy that was inside,
I beg for her to tell me if she really loved me,
Some where a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me.
45. You can't please 'em all
There's always somebody calling you down
I do my best
And I do good business
There's a lot of people asking for my time
They're trying to get ahead
46. We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
we drove around the fields until it started getting late
and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
and he just got back in his car and drove away

My apologies, Melo -- I just flat missed it. Guess I was so excited about my bracket, or something . . .Carmelo Anthony wrote: Well, this is weird. I see only one of my songs in this stack.

I unspoiled it to let people know not to look for two songs from you. I'll also fix it on the game post.
P.S. to Admins -- could this have a sticky? It would be only for another day or so. . .

I'm planning on playing, but my eyes glazed over after about 25 songs! It'll take some time....
I found all three of mine, though!

I wanted to join the fun and put in guesses for all the BB contributors, but I really don't have a clue what any of these songs are or who might have suggested them, so I'll just take the points for my contributions. I know the rules say we don't need to identify the artists, but I'm adding that, too, because I want to make the point that all of my choices are actually from my own CD collection.
8. As I strolled by the dockside one morning so fair
to take the salt water and breathe the sea air,
I spied an old fisherman singing this song,
"Help me now, boys, for my time isn't long."
Fiddler's Green - Marley's Ghost (artists) - MarleysGh0st
24. Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead

Re: JFF Lyrically Speaking
1. A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder
If she might be out there . . .
2. Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is an angel disguised as lust
Here in our bed until the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now
3. I'm the devil i can do what i want,
whatever i got I'm gonna flaunt,
there's never been a rock off that I've ever lost
i cant wait to take Kage back to hell
4. Aww yeah That’s right baby.
Girl, tonight we’re gonna make love.
You know how I know, baby?
‘Cause it’s Wednesday.
And Wednesday night..
5. And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
6. I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wond'ring what in the world did I do?
7. World turns black and white
Pictures in an empty room
Your love starts fallin down
Better change your tune
Reach for the golden ring
Reach for the sky
Baby just spread your wings
8. As I strolled by the dockside one morning so fair
to take the salt water and breathe the sea air,
I spied an old fisherman singing this song,
"Help me now, boys, for my time isn't long."
9. And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”
10. Children behave,
That's what they say when we're together,
And watch how you play,
They don't understand,
And so we're,
11. Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving you with the last thing on my mind
12. Come on, come on, come on
What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
13. I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
14. It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
15. When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.
16. In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene
Another time, another town
Another everything
But it's always back to you
17. I was watching while you're dancing away.
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.
Oh, I know that she's disgusted (oh why's that)
Cause she's feeling so abused. (oh that's too bad)
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I'm so sad)
but it's so hard to refuse.
18. It's so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
19. I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
20. When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head
21. Take me to the desert
Where there's got to be
A whole heap of nothing
For you and me
Take me to the desert
Take me to the sand
Show me the color of your right hand.
22. Cause I'm free
Freer than a pirate on a frigate out at sea
Thank God I'm free
Driftin' all around just like a tumbleweed, oh-oh
23. Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide
24. Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead
No matter where you go
25. I guess I just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (nope)
I've got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I'm gonna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight
26. I burn burn like a wicker cabinet
Chalk white and oh so frail
I see our time has gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wall
I hear words and clips and phrases
I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhale
27. I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
28. I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late
29. There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhists
There are Hindus and Mormons and then
There are those that follow Mohammed, but
I've never been one of them
30. I saw her on monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean.
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheekday
You know what I mean.
31. Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car.*
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score.
Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor.
32. Why I want you, heaven knows
Though I love you with a love true
33. Im not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time till all souls get it right
Then at least I know therell be no nuclear annihilation
In my lifetime Im still not right
34. Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Earl-eye in the morning!
35. Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
36. Drove through the town, drove through the country
Showed 'em how a motor could go
I said "how do you like my triple carburetor?"
And one of them whispered low
37. What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night
What if you'd turned left
Everything would've turned out alright
What if I'd spoke up
What'd if I'd took the keys
What if I had tried a
little harder instead of
always trying to please
38. Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car,
And did it ever get you far
You've never seem so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard,
Do you know where you are?
And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying
39. God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel alone
He was thinking of us he was thinking of us
God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel so alone
40. His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean
And you are the best thing that he's ever seen
41. You'll never be
A better kind
If you don't leave
The world behind
Waste my days
Drown aways
42. Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
43. As people assemble,
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die,
But killing is really merely scene changer,
All men are bored with other men's lies.
44. I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep this joy that was inside,
I beg for her to tell me if she really loved me,
Some where a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me.
45. You can't please 'em all
There's always somebody calling you down
I do my best
And I do good business
There's a lot of people asking for my time
They're trying to get ahead
46. We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
we drove around the fields until it started getting late
and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
and he just got back in his car and drove away
I watch the ships pass and wonder
If she might be out there . . .
2. Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone

35. Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
36. Drove through the town, drove through the country
Showed 'em how a motor could go
I said "how do you like my triple carburetor?"
And one of them whispered low
37. What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night

But killing is really merely scene changer,
All men are bored with other men's lies.

Thanks for the game....
1. A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder
If she might be out there . . .
Anna Molly - Incubus - one of mine (panic)
2. Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is an angel disguised as lust
Here in our bed until the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now
Because the Night - Springsteen/Patty Smith and others - starfish

5. And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade

The sea has washed across your face

And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
Conquistador - Procol Harum - Dave Senior

7. World turns black and white
Pictures in an empty room
Your love starts fallin down
Better change your tune
Reach for the golden ring
Reach for the sky
Baby just spread your wings
8. As I strolled by the dockside one morning so fair
to take the salt water and breathe the sea air,
I spied an old fisherman singing this song,
"Help me now, boys, for my time isn't long."
no clue - no clue - Marley?
9. And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”
10. Children behave,
That's what they say when we're together,
And watch how you play,
They don't understand,
And so we're,
11. Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving you with the last thing on my mind
12. Come on, come on, come on
What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
13. I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
14. It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
15. When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.
16. In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene
Another time, another town
Another everything
But it's always back to you
17. I was watching while you're dancing away.
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.
Oh, I know that she's disgusted (oh why's that)
Cause she's feeling so abused. (oh that's too bad)
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I'm so sad)
but it's so hard to refuse.
18. It's so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
19. I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
20. When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head
White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane - mini?
21. Take me to the desert
Where there's got to be
A whole heap of nothing
For you and me
Take me to the desert
Take me to the sand
Show me the color of your right hand.
22. Cause I'm free
Freer than a pirate on a frigate out at sea
Thank God I'm free
Driftin' all around just like a tumbleweed, oh-oh
23. Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide
24. Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead
No matter where you go
25. I guess I just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (nope)
I've got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I'm gonna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight
26. I burn burn like a wicker cabinet
Chalk white and oh so frail
I see our time has gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wall
I hear words and clips and phrases
I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhale
27. I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
Itchycoo Park - The Small Faces - my other one (panic)
28. I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late
29. There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhists
There are Hindus and Mormons and then
There are those that follow Mohammed, but

Ah yes. This is the tale of a former obstetrician, forced into retirement because he is too old to deliver babies anymore. Yet on this fateful day he is getting ready to go out for another day of fishing when suddenly a young woman bidding her husband goodbye for the day goes into labor right there on the dock. It is quickly apparent that this birth will not go smoothly. Thus, with only the contents of his tackle box at his disposal, the elderly angler/obstetrician must rely on whatever skills he can recall in this epic ballad entitled........"The Old Man and the C-Section". Oh, yeah. I'd say this one was suggested by MARLEY

Ah yes. This is the tale of a former obstetrician, forced into retirement because he is too old to deliver babies anymore. Yet on this fateful day he is getting ready to go out for another day of fishing when suddenly a young woman bidding her husband goodbye for the day goes into labor right there on the dock. It is quickly apparent that this birth will not go smoothly. Thus, with only the contents of his tackle box at his disposal, the elderly angler/obstetrician must rely on whatever skills he can recall in this epic ballad entitled........"The Old Man and the C-Section". Oh, yeah. I'd say this one was suggested by MARLEY
A note for Estonut
And Estonut is just incredible! Not only does he identify my choices from their not being rock tunes (as a lot of other BBs are doing), but he knows all the titles and identifies two out of the three cover bands I submitted! Just...WOW!

I could not keep this joy that was inside,
I beg for her to tell me if she really loved me,
Some where a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me.
Vandal
45. You can't please 'em all
There's always somebody calling you down
I do my best
And I do good business
There's a lot of people asking for my time
They're trying to get ahead
Free Man In Paris - Joni Mitchell - Sprots
46. We got back in the car and listened to a Dylan tape
we drove around the fields until it started getting late
and I went back to my hotel room on the highway
and he just got back in his car and drove away

Re: JFF Lyrically Speaking
After I finished putting down the songs I knew and started going up the list filling in names, I totally got lost (even though I was trying to keep track of the names in my notebook), so I know I probably have some people five times and others once. But I'm the words are starting to blur with all the scrolling, so I'm leaving it as is. Ha!
I'm spent!
1. A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder
If she might be out there . . .
Kroxquo
2. Have I doubt when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is an angel disguised as lust
Here in our bed until the morning comes
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now
Because the Night - Patti Smith - KT (I think he's a major Bruce fan)
3. I'm the devil i can do what i want,
whatever i got I'm gonna flaunt,
there's never been a rock off that I've ever lost
i cant wait to take Kage back to hell
Megaaddict
4. Aww yeah That’s right baby.
Girl, tonight we’re gonna make love.
You know how I know, baby?
‘Cause it’s Wednesday.
And Wednesday night..
Vandal
5. And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind
Conquistador - Procol Harum - Vandal
6. I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wond'ring what in the world did I do?
Crazy - Willie Nelson - Peacock (still going with the C&W)
7. World turns black and white
Pictures in an empty room
Your love starts fallin down
Better change your tune
Reach for the golden ring
Reach for the sky
Baby just spread your wings
Dreams - Van Hagar - Bob (since he did the other Dreams, maybe he pulled a Clem)
8. As I strolled by the dockside one morning so fair
to take the salt water and breathe the sea air,
I spied an old fisherman singing this song,
"Help me now, boys, for my time isn't long."
Some Sea Chanty - Marley
9. And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”
Hate Me - Blue October - Mini (somebody besides me likes Blue October?)
10. Children behave,
That's what they say when we're together,
And watch how you play,
They don't understand,
And so we're,
I Think We're Alone Now - Tommy James and the Shondells - Sprots (similar to her first choice)
11. Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving you with the last thing on my mind
Turn Back the Hands of Time - Some Motown Guy - Carmelo (since he went with unlikely oldies)
12. Come on, come on, come on
What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
Joey - Bon Jovi - Clem (who else?)
13. I see your dirty face
High behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow
So you pray to God
Let It Rock - Kevin Rudolf f/Lil' Wayne - Fanny (I picked what I think I posted as my three fave songs of 2008 in Tbone's retrospective thread, but I doubt anybody read it. Ha!)
14. It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
Life on Mars - David Bowie - Panic in Detroit (going with the Bowie synergy)
15. When the world and I were young,
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.
Peacock
16. In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene
Another time, another town
Another everything
But it's always back to you
Shattered - OAR - Tbone (think he commented on them in his 2008 thread)
17. I was watching while you're dancing away.
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.
Oh, I know that she's disgusted (oh why's that)
Cause she's feeling so abused. (oh that's too bad)
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I'm so sad)
but it's so hard to refuse.
Kroxquo
18. It's so dreamy
Oh, fantasy free me
So you can't see me
No, not at all
In another dimension
With voyeuristic intention
Well secluded, I see all
Time Warp - Rocky Horror Picture Show - Estonut (since lb mentioned that he had a movie theme)
19. I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
Vida La Viva - Coldplay - Tbone (commented on at length in his 2008 thread)
20. When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head
White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane - Starfish (I think he's a fan)
21. Take me to the desert
Where there's got to be
A whole heap of nothing
For you and me
Take me to the desert
Take me to the sand
Show me the color of your right hand.
Sprots
22. Cause I'm free
Freer than a pirate on a frigate out at sea
Thank God I'm free
Driftin' all around just like a tumbleweed, oh-oh
Marley (continuing the theme)
23. Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide
Moondance - Van Morrison - Elwood
24. Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead
No matter where you go
Dave
25. I guess I just lost my husband
I don't know where he went
So I'm gonna drink my money
I'm not gonna pay his rent (nope)
I've got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna wear it tonight
I'm gonna get in trouble
I wanna start a fight
So What - Pink - Fanny (Pink Fanny, ha!)
26. I burn burn like a wicker cabinet
Chalk white and oh so frail
I see our time has gotten stale
The tick-tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wall
I hear words and clips and phrases
I think sick like ginger ale
My stomach turns and I exhale
Fly
27. I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
Itchykoo Park - Small Faces - Vandal
28. I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late
Kroxquo
29. There are Jews in the world, there are Buddhists
There are Hindus and Mormons and then
There are those that follow Mohammed, but
I've never been one of them
Megaaddict (seems to be in the vein of Blame Canada)
30. I saw her on monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean.
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheekday
You know what I mean.
Big Bottom - Spinal Tap - Mini (she mentioned being a fan of the Tap when I said something about it once)
31. Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car.*
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score.
Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor.
City of New Orleans - Woody Guthrie - Elwood
32. Why I want you, heaven knows
Though I love you with a love true
Ramblin' Rose - Nat King Cole - Kiki
33. Im not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time till all souls get it right
Then at least I know therell be no nuclear annihilation
In my lifetime Im still not right
Dave
34. Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Earl-eye in the morning!
The Drunken Sailor Song - Marley (the old salt)
35. Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
With shakin hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
Well the sun came, night had fled
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
Hottie
36. Drove through the town, drove through the country
Showed 'em how a motor could go
I said "how do you like my triple carburetor?"
And one of them whispered low
Kiki (I'm sure the Jazzy has at least a double barrel Holley)
37. What if I said yes
What if I'd gone out that night
What if you'd turned left
Everything would've turned out alright
What if I'd spoke up
What'd if I'd took the keys
What if I had tried a
little harder instead of
always trying to please
Joey - Sugarland - Clem (I would have given the C&W to Peacock, if not for Clem's schtick)
38. Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car,
And did it ever get you far
You've never seem so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard,
Do you know where you are?
And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying
Gives You Hell - All American Rejects - Fanny
39. God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel alone
He was thinking of us he was thinking of us
God made love crazy so he wouldn't feel so alone
Millie and Billie - Alice Cooper (Woohoo! I KNOW this is Hottie, because we had a discussion about From the Inside once a long time ago and she was amazed that I could even describe the cover art.)
40. His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean
And you are the best thing that he's ever seen
Lay Lady Lay - Bob Dylan - KT (also a big Dylan fan, I think)
41. You'll never be
A better kind
If you don't leave
The world behind
Waste my days
Drown aways
Mini
42. Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable - Nat King Cole - Sprots (now this is probably Kiki and Ramblin' Rose was Sprots!)
43. As people assemble,
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die,
But killing is really merely scene changer,
All men are bored with other men's lies.
Starfish
44. I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep this joy that was inside,
I beg for her to tell me if she really loved me,
Some where a mountain is moving
Afraid it's moving without me.

Here in our bed until the morning comes

Take my hand as the sun descends
They can't touch you now,
Can't touch you now, can't touch you now

Let It Rock - Kevin Rudolf f/Lil' Wayne - Fanny (I picked what I think I posted as my three fave songs of 2008 in Tbone's retrospective thread, but I doubt anybody read it. Ha!)
Well, I read it, which is why I originally had you down for this I s'pose..somewhere those little voices in my head were telling me it was you....but thehn I spied what I thought a more likely one for you, and I changed this. It's not my fault. It took me years to ignore those little voices. Picking up a couple of extra LS points is not worth following most of the other "advice" they give

5. And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no place to unwind

Procol Harum with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra, Conquistador
10. Children behave,
That's what they say when we're together,
And watch how you play,
They don't understand,
And so we're,

Runnin just as fast as we can/holdin on to one another's hand/trying to get away into the night....
I Think We're ALone Now - Tommy James and the Shondells
Just yesterday.
Live was such a simple game,
A child could play.
It was easy then to tell right from wrong.
Easy then to tell weak from strong.
When a man should stand and fight,
Or just go along.

I dont remember it, but it is great old-style classic lyric writing.
20. When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head, feed your head
Spoiler
White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
23. Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide
Spoiler
Its a marvellous night for a.... Moondance -- Van Morrison
27. I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
Spoiler
Itchycoo Park - Small Faces
31. Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car.*
Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score.
Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor.
Spoiler
The CIty of New Orleans -- Steve Goodman or Arlo Guthrie
32. Why I want you, heaven knows
Though I love you with a love true
Spoiler
Ramblin' Rose - Nat "King" Cole
40. His clothes are dirty but his, his hands are clean
And you are the best thing that he's ever seen
Spoiler
Lay Lady Lay -- Bob Dylan
42. Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Spoiler
Unforgettable - Nat "King" Cole, again.
43. As people assemble,
Civilization is trying to find a new way to die,
But killing is really merely scene changer,
All men are bored with other men's lies.

sounds like Rush. The band, not Limbaugh. but really, i do not know this one. [/b]
45. You can't please 'em all
There's always somebody calling you down
I do my best
And I do good business
There's a lot of people asking for my time
They're trying to get ahead

Free Man in Paris -- Joni Mitchell

I have to apologize that I havent followed the game this past month enough to guess who contributed what, but I am sure -- having looked at one song I should have known -- that #36 is associated with PeaBabe.
