Lyrically Speaking - 2/4/19
Posted: Mon Feb 04, 2019 8:06 am
Hopefully, unlike me making up games on the fly, you've prepared for class today. Yes, today's LSWE game has to do with those wonderful school days of our past which you may or may not wish to relive. Don't worry, Charlie Brown's Teacher won't be teaching this class, so you won't have to worry about the annoying sound of a muted trumpet keeping you awake at your desk in the back of the class. OK, it's time to get out those #2 pencils... as if there's any other kind.
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. Well, the good old days
May not return
And the rocks might melt
And the sea may burn
2. Absolutely no one who knows me better
No one that can make me feel so good
How did we stay so long together?
Everybody, everybody said we never would
3. Friday night and everyone's moving.
I can feel the heat but it's soothing.
Heading down, I search for the beat in this dirty town.
4. Aw, man
I think the clock is slow
5. They hurt you at home
And they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever
And they despise a fool
'Til you're so fucking crazy
You can't follow their rules
6. Hangin' round downtown by myself
And I had too much caffeine
And I was thinkin' 'bout myself
7. Chapter One we didn't really get along
Chapter Two I think I fell in love with you
8. Take your baby by the hair
And pull her close and there, there, there
9. 12 O'clock comes with mass hysteria,
Everybody rushes down to the cafeteria,
Picked up my tray to have Thursdays lunch,
And as I tried the apple sauce, I heard it crunch
10. I`ve got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know
11. If I was just another dusty record on the shelf
Will you blow me off and play me like everybody else
12. Though I try to forget it just can't be done
Each time the doorbell rings I still run
I don't know how in the world
To stop thinking of him
