Lyrically Speaking - 2/3/25
Sesame Street Monday gives us the letter D today. Odd numbered songs have titles starting with D, and even numbered songs have artists starting with D. Dig?
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. Never do more than I really need
My mind is racing, but my body's in the lead
2. Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it
3. Folks are screaming, out of control
It was so entertaining when the boogie started to explode
I heard somebody say
4. Now I'm gonna love you
Til the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
Til the stars fall from the sky
For you and I
5. Give me the ring on your finger
Let me see the lines on your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
Giving you what you hadn't planned
6. You'll say, the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still, I know you just don't care
7. Now, don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever, but the Earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
8. Skeeters started buzzin' 'bout this time a-year
I'm goin' 'round back, said she'd meet me there
We were rollin' in the grass grows behind the barn
When my ears started ringin' like a fire alarm
9. Lover, I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
10. Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
11. Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while
12. Now he smokes too much
He's got a permanent hack
Deals dope out of Denny's
Keeps a table in the back
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with a title or artist that begins with the letter D (5 points if both begin with D).

Dust in the Wind, Kansas
8. Skeeters started buzzin' 'bout this time a-year
I'm goin' 'round back, said she'd meet me there
We were rollin' in the grass grows behind the barn
When my ears started ringin' like a fire alarm
9. Lover, I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
10. Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
11. Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while
12. Now he smokes too much
He's got a permanent hack
Deals dope out of Denny's
Keeps a table in the back
Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with a title or artist that begins with the letter D (5 points if both begin with D). Dreams, Fleetwood Mac
Image Bonus: D is for...

My mind is racing, but my body's in the lead
Double Vision, Foreigner
2. Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it
3. Folks are screaming, out of control
It was so entertaining when the boogie started to explode
I heard somebody say
4. Now I'm gonna love you
Til the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
Til the stars fall from the sky
For you and I
5. Give me the ring on your finger
Let me see the lines on your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
Giving you what you hadn't planned
6. You'll say, the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still, I know you just don't care
7. Now, don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever, but the Earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy

Yay for Deke! I tried to find a gif of him doing the finger in a Nuggets uni, but had to settle for the Rockets. I'm glad it was enough to do the job because I was almost going to go with my backup plan of the famous pic of the 1994 Round One upset but didn't know how steeped you were in the history.
Also, I remember that cat, she was glorious (didn't I want you to name her Milkshake?)

That was in my sports heyday, and I would have recognized it (wasn't it over the Okla... er, Seattle Supersonics?)Earl the Squirrel wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 10:01 pmYay for Deke!

I can't remember if you came up with a name for her or not, but Gypsy stuck. She hung around for a year before she disappeared... one of a long string of cats my jerkwad neighbors have had that all usually end up at my door looking for food.
