Lyrically Speaking - 2/19/14

#1 Post by CharlesFoxSingers » Wed Feb 19, 2014 7:30 am

It wouldn't be an LSWE if the Bored's favorite quartet didn't shuffle on in wearing our super cool vests and host a Wacky Wednesday game! We're even gonna be ultra sneaky and not tell you what the theme of today's game is... just because we want to be the ones to finally stump TBone! We will warn you, the theme is somewhat more specific than it may seem...

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. There's still so much for me to do
And I can't stop loving you
Oh can this be true

2. Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew and then disappeared
The curtains flew and then he appeared

3. Nothing's so loud
As hearing when we lie
The truth is not kind
And you've said neither am I

4. Fight the feeling (fight the feeling)
Leave it alone (leave it alone)
Cause if it ain't love
It just ain't enough to leave a happy home

5. No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know

6. To the girls in Frisco to the girls in New York
To the girls in Texican you gotta understand
That baby I'm your man

7. A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

8. Little child dry your crying eyes
How can I explain the fear you feel inside
Cause you were born into this evil world
Where man is killing man and no one knows just why

9. Oh, won't you come with me
And take my hand
Oh, won't you come with me
And walk this land
Please take my hand

10. Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away

11. I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off sometimes life`s ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much oh what can i say
Well you just laughed it off it was all ok

12. Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too


5 Point Bonus: What is the theme of today's game? (Be careful!!!!!)

Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that fits the theme of today's game (Be careful!!!!)

Mecca Bonus: 2 of the songs above have been on the Mecca CD. Which ones? (3 possible points)

I see nothing in common with the two songs I got. Can't remember who the artist is on #12 so that doesn't help.
So in the interest of safety, I'll stay safely buckled in my ignorance and not make a guess.

Dang! I would have never gotten that. I missed the J! episode that Mary Well's sister was on so I didn't get that connection.

It wouldn't be an LSWE if the Bored's favorite quartet didn't shuffle on in wearing our super cool vests and host a Wacky Wednesday game! We're even gonna be ultra sneaky and not tell you what the theme of today's game is... just because we want to be the ones to finally stump TBone! We will warn you, the theme is somewhat more specific than it may seem...

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. There's still so much for me to do
And I can't stop loving you
Oh can this be true

2. Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew and then disappeared
The curtains flew and then he appeared

Dont' Fear the Reaper -- Blue oyster Cult

3. Nothing's so loud
As hearing when we lie
The truth is not kind
And you've said neither am I

4. Fight the feeling (fight the feeling)
Leave it alone (leave it alone)
Cause if it ain't love
It just ain't enough to leave a happy home

5. No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know

One -- Three Dog Night

6. To the girls in Frisco to the girls in New York
To the girls in Texican you gotta understand
That baby I'm your man

7. A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

8. Little child dry your crying eyes
How can I explain the fear you feel inside
Cause you were born into this evil world
Where man is killing man and no one knows just why

9. Oh, won't you come with me
And take my hand
Oh, won't you come with me
And walk this land
Please take my hand

Ina Gadda Da Vida -- Iron Butterfly

10. Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away

For What it's Worth -- Buffalo Springfield

11. I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off sometimes life`s ok

5 Point Bonus: What is the theme of today's game? (Be careful!!!!!) Hard to get too specific when I get so few of them. I see animals in all the artists, but that's about all I got.
