Lyrically Speaking - 1/27/21
Here's a game with a theme so simple, that I think even TBone will be able to get it. And I'm sure that I've used it before, especially given a couple of the songs, but I had to write this game on the fly. And besides, what goes around comes around...
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 3 points for the very easy theme...
1. I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
2. The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
3. I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever
Gonna make it home again
The morning sun is rising
It's kissing the day
4. Ooo, darling, when you're near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions
Are something I just can't tame
5. And the banker never wears
A mac in the pouring rain
Very strange
6. I got a story, ain't got no moral
I let the bad guy win
Every once in a while
7. Thoughts that leave me
Chasing after
My dreams disown me
Loaded with danger
8. Singing come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease
9. Sweeter than candy on a stick
Huckleberry, cherry or lime
If you had a choice
He'd be your pick
10. And said, Doctor, ain`t
There nothing I can take
I said, Doctor, to relieve
This belly ache
11. Last night, I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
She said, now stop that jiving
12. And I'm just itching
To tell you about them
Very easy theme?
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist whose title contains something that matches the very easy theme.
Image Bonus: If you know the very easy theme, show me a very fitting image.

A mac in the pouring rain
Very strange
PENNY LANE - THE BEATLES
6. I got a story, ain't got no moral
I let the bad guy win
Every once in a while
WILL IT GO ROUND IN CIRCLES - BILLY PRESTON
9. Sweeter than candy on a stick

I said, Doctor, to relieve

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 3 points for the very easy theme...
1. I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
American Pie - Don McLean
I was actually considering the pink carnation line for my snippet contribution. I already had one, but I'm still mulling my second...
2. The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash
3. I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever
Gonna make it home again
The morning sun is rising
It's kissing the day

6. I got a story, ain't got no moral

7. Thoughts that leave me
Chasing after
My dreams disown me
Loaded with danger

8. Singing come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease
Clocks - Coldplay
9. Sweeter than candy on a stick
Huckleberry, cherry or lime
If you had a choice
He'd be your pick
Lollipop - The Chordettes
10. And said, Doctor, ain`t

This belly ache
Lime in the Coconut - Nilsson
11. Last night, I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
She said, now stop that jiving
Big Ten Inch Record - Aerosmith
Not sure if that's a parenthetical of not, but it's the case when it's needed. Ha! Not sure if I got this 8 track from my grandma the year before or after she gave me Some Girls....
12. And I'm just itching
To tell you about them
Big Balls - AC/DC
Son of a bitch! You put this last on purpose because you knew as soon as I got the theme, I would want to krox it....
Very easy theme?
I would say round or circular things, but you kind of spelt that out with Billy Preston. Can a sphere be flat? I don't know any other words to really convey the shape if you want something more specific...
After the first few I was like, well, maybe T-Bone can get it, but I can't. Even though I hooked up ring and wheel, I didn't think about a pie shape. Then I re-read your instructions and the last sentence was a "d'oh!" Of course, after the next few it became painfully obvious, but still....
