I don't have very long to live. The Chancellor of The State has sentenced me to death, and in four hours, I am to be logged off permanently by a massive internal server error. The State wanted to put an end to lyrics, and I stood up to them, and continue to do so! They say I am obsolete. Well, I am not obsolete, and neither are any of the things I have included in today's Wacky Wednesday game! Yes, I wrote an LSWSE game, just to thumb my nose at The State. Yes, they'll come after you too if you choose to play, or even if you just choose to be "present", but we must not let the music die! Obsolescents unite!!! Now if you'll excuse me, it is time for my last meal..... ah yes, I do love me some broiled penguin!

It's even harder to picture
That you're not here next to me
"Payphone" - Maroon 5
4. Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
5. You gave them all
Those old time stars
Through wars of worlds
Invaded by Mars
6. When your dreamboat
Turns out to be a footnote
I'm a man with a mission
In two or three editions
7. Three little birds
Sat on my window
And they told me
I don't need to worry
8. A-friends, you get some silver
Did you get a little gold
A what did you bring me
My dear friends
9. Now you`ve gone away and
How it`s sad to say you`ve gone
I remember what they said
Now I`m going out of my head
10. She's living in L. A.
With my best old ex-friend Ray
A guy she said she knew well
And sometimes hated
11. Do you want to see me
Crawl across the floor to you
Do you want to hear me
Beg you to take me back
12. Little things remind me of you
Cheap cologne and that damn song too
"Don't Put Another Dime in the Jukebox" - ? (I haven't thought of or heard this song in years. However, I will now be looking to add this to my iTunes collection. Too bad I couldn't recall the artist.)
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that mentions something that might be considered obsolete today in the title.
"Disco Duck" - Rick Dees
5 Point Bonus: "The Obsolete Man" is my absolute favorite episode of The Twilight Zone, maybe my favorite episode of any show ever. How many of the 168 episodes of the original TZ series did Burgess Meredith star in?
I've only been able to recall four so hopefully that is the correct answer. The ones I came up with are "Time Enough At Last", "Mr. Dingle the Strong", "The Obsolete Man", and "Printer's Devil".

And I ain`t going back again

2. Been away so long I hardly knew the place
Gee, it's good to be back home
Leave it til tomorrow to unpack my case

I don't have very long to live. The Chancellor of The State has sentenced me to death, and in four hours, I am to be logged off permanently by a massive internal server error. The State wanted to put an end to lyrics, and I stood up to them, and continue to do so! They say I am obsolete. Well, I am not obsolete, and neither are any of the things I have included in today's Wacky Wednesday game! Yes, I wrote an LSWSE game, just to thumb my nose at The State. Yes, they'll come after you too if you choose to play, or even if you just choose to be "present", but we must not let the music die! Obsolescents unite!!! Now if you'll excuse me, it is time for my last meal..... ah yes, I do love me some broiled penguin!
