Lyrically Speaking - 1/19/15
Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2015 7:51 am
Let's turn back the clock to the days when I still had a squiggly in my company logo, the Super 70's! Today's game will feature some of the songs from the 1970's that I've had burned onto the Mecca muzak CD's... and while I do hear LB is a fan of the music of that decade, I still won't play any of that shitty ass disco in my stores! I do have standards, you know.... oh, excuse me...
Can I get a hazmat cleanup in the novelty aisle near the lava lamps, please...
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
2. Sweet wonderful you,
You make me happy with the things you do,
Oh, can it be so,
This feeling follows me wherever I go
3. Well now, you step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
4. He kept dreaming (dreaming)
Ooh, that someday he'd be a star
(A superstar but he didn't get far)
5. He'd say, Son can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes
6. If her daddy's rich take her out for a meal
If her daddy's poor just do what you feel
7. Well, I ain't superstitious
And I don't get suspicious
But my woman is a friend of mine
8. She's winding them down on her clock machine
And she won't give up 'cause she's seventeen
She's a frozen fire
She's my one desire
9. And though my lack of education
Hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
10. Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
I'm countin' on you to carry me through
11. Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
and strap your hands across my engines
12. I know you've got somewhere to go,
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist from the 1970's that you'd put on the Mecca CD.
Image Bonus: Post a picture that in some way represents the 70's.
