[KillerTomato]

1. Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think, I thought, I saw you try

LOSING MY RELIGION - REM

2. Motion in the ocean
His air hose broke
Lots of trouble, lots of bubble
He was in a jam
He's in a giant clam

ROCK LOBSTER - THE B-52s

3. Tell me what you've got in mind
'Cause we're runnin' out of time
Won't you ever set me free
This waiting 'round is killing me

SHE DRIVES ME CRAZY - FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS

4. Can you see them
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal

OUR LIPS ARE SEALED - THE GO-GOS

5. It's a lesson to me
The eagles and the beggars and the seas
The ABCs we must all face
Try to keep a little grace

I'm the one who loves you baby, can't you see?

'Cause I will be your honeybee
Open up your fruitcage

Seemed a harmless little fuck
Oooo, but we unleashed a lion
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast

Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication, devotion
Turning all the night time into the day

Time for jumpin' overboard
Transportation isn't here
Close enough but not too far
Maybe you know where you are

And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile
We'll be there in just a while

[ghostjmf]

Whereas I'd only give myself 6 on this (got 2 points each on 1, 12, 15) unless I got some humor points along the way.

[KillerTomato]

I'm mucho generous with humor points.

And sometimes, I give points for no reason other than to give points.

Neither really affects the totals. Think of it like the great British "game show" (and much lesser American copy) "Whose Line is it Anyway?".
