Lyrically Speaking 2022 - Day 1

Lyrically Speaking 2022 - Day 1
June 27, 2022
Merryman Monday


Steven Spielbored presents...Alliteratively Speaking

I, Steven Spielbored, take total personal pride in lyrically lending a helping hand selecting songs alphabetically adjusted for Monday's madness.

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist

1. Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

2. My son turned ten just the other day
He said, thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play

3. She's 41 and her daddy still calls her "baby"
All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks down town with a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man

4. Now all the vampires walkin' through the Valley
Move west down Ventura boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts

5. I met her in a Kingstown bar
We fell in love, I knew it had to end
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Now here I am down in Kingstown again

6. Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival

7. If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my,
Close my,
Close my eyes

8. "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child"

9. Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy

10. If you feel like leaving you know you can go
but why don't you stay until tomorrow?
and if you want to be free,
all you have to do is say so

11. Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight

12. She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon

We fell in love, I knew it had to end
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Now here I am down in Kingstown again

6. Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival

7. If I could turn the page
In time then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my,
Close my,
Close my eyes

8. "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child"

Magic Man, Heart

9. Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy

10. If you feel like leaving you know you can go
but why don't you stay until tomorrow?
and if you want to be free,
all you have to do is say so

11. Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight

12. She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon

Witchy Woman, Atlanta Rhythm Section

1. Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

He said, thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play

Cat's in the Cradle - Harry Chapin

All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks down town with a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man

4. Now all the vampires walkin' through the Valley
Move west down Ventura boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts

We fell in love, I knew it had to end
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Now here I am down in Kingstown again

9. Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy

Rocky Raccoon - The Beatles


10. If you feel like leaving you know you can go
but why don't you stay until tomorrow?
and if you want to be free,
all you have to do is say so

Sara Smile - Hall & Oates


11. Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight

Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon
