Lyrically Speaking - 2/12/14
Posted: Wed Feb 12, 2014 7:51 am
I was so excited when LB let me have the chance to make up my own Wacky Wednesday game! I worked long and hard putting together the lyrics to some of my favorite songs that aren't on my Kidz Bop CD. I was so proud of my accomplishment when I handed the game in to LB, and he must have been quite moved by it as well as he promptly put the palm of his hand to his face and started shaking his head! "Are you stupid or something, Duh Mass?" he asked me. I cheerfully nodded my head and said, "Yes I am!" He started to wrinkle up my paper and file it in the wastebasket, then sighed and said it was too bad he was going to have to use my game anyway since there wasn't another one to replace it with... as if this wasn't the bestest LSWE game ever put together!
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist....
1. She's a Lover, baby and a fighter
Should have seen it coming when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna warn ya
2. Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend.
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind.
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you'll find
3. On a warm summer's evenin', on a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler. We were both too tired to sleep.
4. I've got a new age girl
(Tell us what she's like)
An environmentalist girl
(Does she ride a bike)
5. At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill
6. Yeah, there was ham and there was turkey
There was caviar
And long tall glasses with wine up to hy'are
7. And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
8. Oh well a touch of grey
Kinda suits you anyway
And that was all I had to say
And it's alright
9. Oh, there's a lot of opportunities
If you know when to take them, you know?
There's a lot of opportunities
If there aren't, you can make them
Make or break them
10. When I was sorry
It was too late to turn around (turn around)
And tell you so.
There was no reason
There was no reason
Just a foolish beat of my heart
11. When all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennae waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
12. Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist Duh Mass could have put in this game, and include the lyric snippet he would have used for an extra point.
Mecca Bonus: Four songs in this game have been on the Mecca CD. Which numbers? (10 possible points)
5 Point Bonus: One of the four Mecca songs above has an acoustic version (which I hate) that is the one which is played on the CD. Which number song is it?
