"Wind in your sail" - Lagwagon

Mine was "Serenity" by Godsmack. I know some of you knew that. :(

And here's something a little old school...

Last night a little dancer
Came dancin' to my door,
Last night a little angel
Came pumping on the floor,
She said a "Come baby
I've got a license for love.
And if it expires
Pray help from above"
Because...

"Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol

Have you seen the well-to-do
Up and down Park Avenue
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air
High hats, and arrow collars
White spats, and lots of dollars
Spendin' every dime
For a wonderful time

;)

"Puttin' On The Ritz" by the one and only Taco

"Well it took a lot of work to be the a** that I am
And I'm pretty damn sure that anyone can
Easily, equally f*** you over"

Modest Mouse...Dark Center of the Universe

"She's always looking for a fight,
She keeps the neighbors up all night.
I go to her when I'm feeling slack,
The girl's using me for a punching bag,
I think that I could help her out,
The girl's got a lot to be mad about..."

I miss this thread so I'm cheating...it's Belle & Sebastian's "She's Losing It"


"I've had enough of scheming and messing around with jerks
My car is parked outside, I'm afraid it doesn't work
I'm looking for a partner, someone who gets things fixed
Ask yourself this question: Do you want to be rich?"

Opportunities - Pet Shop Boys


Action speaks louder than words
and I'm a man of great experience
I know you've got another man
but I can love you better than him

Take my hand don't be afraid
I'm gonna prove every word I say
I'm advertisin' love fo' free
So you can place yo' ad with me

Black Crowes, Hard to Handle

"She told me that I'd be ok
But I feel the same that I felt that day
when she said don't worry and you'll be fine
It's only a matter of time.
As she sits back and finishes her wine,
She prays to the Lord I'll be fine..."

Mest
Mother's Prayer

Here's mine:
Alright, alright, alright, Ok now ladies,
And we going to break this back down in just a few seconds
Now don't have me break this thang down for nothin'
Now I wanna see y'all on y'all baddest behavior
Gimme some sugar, I am your neighbor

-Mark

OutKast - "Hey Ya"

"Surely don't stay long I'm missing you now.
It's like I told you I'm over you somehow
Before I close the door
I need to hear you say goodbye.
Baby won't you change your mind?"

Mazzy Star
Halah

here's mine:

"It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
And a Kenworth pulling logs
Cab-over Pete with a reefer on
And a Jimmy hauling hogs
We's heading for bear on I 10
About a mile outta Shakeytown
I says Pigpen, this here's Rubber Duck
And I'm about to put the hammer down"

It's much harder than my last one.

Convoy - C.W. McCall

Here's an oldie for us oldsters:

And now the room is softly fading
And I only kiss your shadow
I cannot feel your hand
You're a stranger now unto me..

Simon & Garfunkel - can't remember song title, but I think it's called "Dangling Conversation." There's something else about the couple being a poorly written poem, out of rhyme, pretty sad lyrics.

Here's mine...one of my favorite songs...

Reach out for me and hold me tight
Hold that memory
Let my machine talk to me
Let my machine talk to me

R.E.M. - World Leader Pretend

"There’s a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I’d be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off and countless screaming argonauts"

They Might Be Giants, "Birdhouse in Your Soul"

Is this what you wanted, Sammy Haggar?
Sammy Haggar, is this what you wanted, man?
Dave lost his hairline, but you lost your cool.
Can't drive 55, I'll never buy your lousy records again...

Nerf Herder, "Van Halen"


When she was three
Her Barbies always did it on the first date
Now she's with me,
There's never any need for them to demonstrate
