Lyrically Speaking - 2/8/08
Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2008 7:58 am
Today's Free For All Friday songs come courtesy of the wide variety of Music Choice channels I flipped through on January 24th. This game is open until Monday morning...
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist....
1. I didn't think about my lady
I know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady
Have fallen into the same old dull routine
2. To my surprise one hundred stories high
People getting loose now, getting down on the roof
3. "We're callin' everyone to ride along
To another shore,
We can laugh our lives away
And be free once more."
4. So let that feeling
grab you deep inside
and send you reeling
where your love can't hide
5. Bing bang, I saw the whole gang
Dancing on my living room rug, yeah!
Flip flop, they was doing the bop
All the teens had the dancing bug
6. You can see I'm single-minded, I know what I could be
How'd you feel about it, come and take a walk with me?
I'm looking for a partner, regardless of expense
Think about it seriously, you know, it makes sense
7. What d'you think about that? Now you know how I feel
Say you can handle my love, are you for real? [are you for real?]
I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye
8. I'm working hard, you're working too
We do it every day
For every minute I have to work
I need a minute of play
9. The grabbing hands
Grab all they can
All for themselves
After all
It's a competetive world
10. You used to laugh about
People who were hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
11. Well I know what's right, I got just one life
in a world that keeps on pushin me around
but I'll stand my ground
12. I feel like this is the beginning
'though I've loved you for a million years
And if I thought our love was ending
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears
13. We used to think it was impossible
Now you call me by my new last name
Memories seem like so long ago
Time always kills the pain
14. Cause love cuts a million ways
Shakes the devil when he misbehaves
I aint nobody's fool
Come on shake it up
Whatever I do
15. I keep hearin' you're concerned about my happiness
But all that thought you're givin' me is conscience I guess
If I was walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none
While you 'n' your friends are worried about me I'm havin' lots of fun
16. Please forgive me while I turn out the lights
Watch this haunted day turn into a wasted night
So cut me off-throw me down
17. You're playing so cool, obeying every rule
Deep way down in your heart
You're burning yearning for the sun
18. Your sense of justice
I'll embrace
But your defense
Won't help my case
I'm deep in trouble with the law
19. Young kentucky girl in a push-up bra
Fallin all over myself
To lick your heart and taste your health cause
With the birds I'll share
This lonely view...
20. Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
