Lyrically Speaking - 2/5/16
Wow, are we already at the end of the first week of the 2016 almost-LSWE? That means it's time for the first Friday game of the year, and I'm falling back on the much-loved LSWE staple of short phrases! Yes, today you get very short lyrical snippets of only a few words that, to the best I can determine, are uniquely found in only one song of any popular renown. For maximum pointage, I've included twenty songs in this game, and you'll have the whole weekend to ponder over these if you so desire. Have fun racking your brains!!!
1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...
1. Degenerate the faithful
2. Tawny eyes
3. This serious moonlight
4. Old man's Trojans
5. His bedroom voice
6. Quarter track tape
7. Schoolin' around
8. Eating chocolate cake
9. Three outside children
10. Centrifugal motion
11. Hippie chicks and hypocrites
12. A celibate rope
13. Round 5
14. Madame Onassis
15. Braces and boots
16. Demolition woman
17. Really excellent mother
18. Goody good bullshit
19. East California
20. Cute and horny
