Girl of the North ~ Bob Dylan. I knew it was Dylan but I had to search for the name of the song, I'm terrible about remembering song titles.
Quote:
In the quiet afternoon you left and went down into town
And I just watched the empty road behind you
Where the fog lies kissing the mountainside
You want to be sleeping, deep inside
Believing that the hungry world won't find you
How deep it Goes - Heart
Quote:
Kinda love you got
Knock me off my feet
Let it all hang out
Oh, let it all hang out.
And you know I'm so wired-up
Don't need no coffee in my cup
Jackie Wilson Said by Van Morrison (but the first time I heard this song, it was performed by Dexy's Midnight Runners on The Young Ones :nod:)
Quote:
Funky young kings, we sing of truth and soul
We're the modern day braves with one strong hold
Through the world of song our boldness is exposed
I'm talkin bout my buddies--funk it up Fishbone!
Good Time Boys - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Quote:
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people's eyes
Pepper - Butthole Surfers (Love that song!!)
Quote:
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfil de book.
Bob Marley's
Redemption
one of my favs by him....:nod:
"Lord you got me trapped woman, up on the second floor;
If I get by this time I wont be trapped no more.
So raise our window baby, I can ease out soft and slow.
And lord, your neighbors, no they wont be
Talking that stuff that they dont know."
One Way Out - The Allman Brothers. I had the right band but guessed the wrong song (Whipping Post was my guess).
Somebody besides me HAS to remember this song:
Quote:
Eshe? She went down to Holly Springs.
Rasha Don and Baba? They went down to Peachtree.
Headliner, I challenge you to a game of horseshoes,
A game of HORSESHOES!
Tennessee by Arrested Development (Love that song!!! Time to dig up that CD)
Quote:
Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it comin' back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do
Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes...I love the White Stripes! I'm actually listening to The Dead Weather right now which is not The White Stripes but pretty darn close...kind of. :lol: :p
Quote:
And I've been riding
On this train so long
I can't tell
If it's you or me
Who is driving us
Into the ground
Volcano-Beck..He's such a wordster
"How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be proud, easy to say no
Easy to be cold, easy to say no"
Easy To Be Hard - Three Dog Night
Quote:
In the nick of time, a hero arose
A funny-lookin' dog with a big black nose
And Bingo was his name-O? B-I-N-G-O?Quote:

I can't BELIEVE that this remains unanswered after 24 hours! What sort of culturally deprived childhoods did you people suffer through to not know these lyrics?!?
I guess I need to break it down Sesame Street style for ya:
Quote:
Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richthofen was his name
Eighty men tried and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the countryside
(you can tell I'm upset by the question mark-exclamation point-question mark combination :nod:)
It's Snoopy vs. The Red Baron by The Royal Guardsmen (I had to look up who sings it):banana:

Because of pronouns, I can say:
"I wish SHE would find a rhinoceros for ME, and WE'd be happy."
You see, a pronoun was made to take the place of a noun,
'Cause saying all those nouns over and over
Can really wear you down!
