The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

I don't want to stay here but I can't leave
I'm in the spell of the magic you weave
Somebody wake me up
I wish I could break it up
But I can't shake LOOSE
Can't shake loose
I can't shake loose
Can't shake loose
Any move I'll make in the end I will loose
I can't shake loose
I try and I try but it ain't no use
I could go like I did before
But these old shoes keep walking to your door
I want to hide but when I hear you call
If i turn around I know I will fall
One step people shake
No matter what move I make
'Cause' I can't shake loose
Can't shake loose
I can't shake loose
Can't shake loose
Any move I'll make in the end I will loose
I don't want to stay here
But you know I can't leave
Please let me go dear
Please let me leave
I can't shake loose
I can't shake loose
I can't shake loose
Can't shake loose
Any move I'll make in the end I will loose
I can't shake loose
I try and I try but it ain't no use
I could go like I did before
But these old shoes keep walking to your door
I can't shake loose

Dog day Tuesday
Hope that girl she come today
Hard life it's a city life
Sweat keep pourin' down
I've got my feet up like to love
Through the dawn till I've blown
All I want's her lovin' down
Love the way she move around
Need no excuse
To let it all hang loose
My body's blown a fuse
Rising power
We'll raise the night
Rising power
Rising power
We'll wake the dead
Rising power
You've got a love life up all night
Darkest hour at the dead of night
Seen her walkin' down the street
The kind of woman that brings on heat
Loved her dusk till dawn
Come the morning she was gone
Took me out to my surprise
Money's gone left high and dry
Need no excuse
To let it all hang LOOSE
My body's blown a fuse
Rising power
We'll raise the night
Rising power
Rising power
We'll wake the dead
Rising power
You'll end up torn to shreds
Don't need no excuse
My body's blown a fuse
Rising power
We'll raise the night
Rising power
Rising power
We'll wake the dead
Rising power
You'll end up torn to shreds
Rise
Rise
Rise
Rising power
The power rise
From you

Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it LOOSE and let it fall
Lay it soft against my skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong, (Yes, I do!)
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
Lord, it's bad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, weighed down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
(And when you're feeling so bad)
And you think you're cursed
(And you've got it sad)
Well, if there's one thing for the better that can turn you LOOSE
It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
My friend Sam is a chauffeur, Annie goes to school
Jerry works at the office, Sue lies by the pool
But on all weekends
(Together again)
When I meet my friends
(I'm gonna see them now)
And we're lookin' round for the action we sure play it cool
It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
Ah-haa (ah-haa, ah-haa)
You paint your world and use all colours
Ah-haa (ah-haa)
And then you find it all comes out too bright
You know it's only a lie
Ah-haa (ah-haa, ah-haa)
The songs you sing are too romantic
Ah-haa (ah-haa)
And when you want the truth
They only spit in your eye
Oh yeah, they're only telling you lies
Oh yeah, there's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, weighed down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
(You know you're feeling so bad)
And you think you're cursed
(And you've got it sad)
Well, if there's one thing for the better that can turn you loose
It's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock'n roll...

Young teacher, the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking, she's so close now
This girl is half his age
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, she's waiting
His car is warm and dry
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
LOOSE talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It's no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by Nabakov
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
etc. etc.

Listen to me, baby
I'm trying to make you see
That I want to be with you, girl
If you want to be with me
But if you gotta go
It's all right
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you gotta stay all night
I am just a poor boy, baby
Trying to CONNECT
But I don't want you thinking
Oh, that I ain't got any respect
But if you gotta go
It's alright
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you gotta stay all night
Now I'm not trying to question you
To take part in any quiz
It's just that I don't have a watch
And you keep asking me what time it is
But if you gotta go
Well, it's alright
But if you gotta go, go now
Or else you gotta stay all night
Now I don't want to make you give
Anything you never gave before
It's just that I'll be sleeping soon
It'll be too dark for you to find the door
But if you gotta go
Well, it's alright
Well, if you gotta go, go now
Or else you gotta stay all night

Operator, please connect me
With 1982
I need to make apologies
For what I didn't do
I sure do need to tell her
That I've thought the whole thing through
And now it's clear that she is what
I should have held on to
They say hindsight's 20/20
But I'm nearly going blind
From staring at her photograph
And wishing she was mine
It's that same old, lost love story
It's sad but it's true
There was a time when she was mine
In 1982
Postman, can you sell me
A special kind of stamp
One to send a letter from
This crazy, lonely man
Back into the wasted years
Of my living past
I need to tell her now I know
How long my love will last
They say hindsight's 20/20
But I'm nearly going blind
From staring at her photograph
And wishing she was mine
It's that same old, lost love story
It's sad but it's true
There was a time when she was mine
In 1982
Losing my mind going back in time
To 1982

Word of the day for Thursday 27th June - STATE
only registered users can see external links
I never dreamed there could be
A someone made just for me
And I'm letting her have her way
I'm here to see what she has to say
Ah, the poor girl always wins the day
I'm stayin' ahead of the game
And she's a-doin' the same
And the whiskey flyin' into my head
The fiddler's arm has gone dead
And talk is beginning to spread
When did our love go bad
Whatever happened to the best friend that I had
It's been so long since I held you tight
Been so long since we said good night
The taste of tears is bittersweet
When you're near me my heart forgets to beat
You're there every night among the good and the true
And I'll be 'round waiting for you
Well the king of them all is starting to fall
I lost my gal at the boatman's' ball
The night has a thousand hearts and eyes
Hope may vanish, but it never dies
I'll see you tomorrow when freedom rings
I'm gonna stay on top of things
It's the middle of summer and the moon is blue
And I'll be 'round waiting for you
Well, another deal gone down
Another man done gone
You put up with it all
And you carry on
Something holding you back
But you'll come through
I'd bet the world and everything in it on you
Happiness is but a STATE of mind
Anytime you want you can cross the STATE line
You don't need to be rich or well to do
I'll be 'round waiting for you

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind
I Straddled that Greyhound,
and rolled in into Raleigh and all across Carolina
Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill
And we never was a minute late
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown
Rollin' out of Georgia STATE
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle,
Half way 'cross Alabam
And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham
Right away, I bought me a through train ticket
Ridin' cross Mississippi clean
And I was on that midnight flier out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down
Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit
Put luggage in my hands,
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land
Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the Golden State
Oh when The pilot told me in thirteen minutes
We'd be headin' in the terminal gate
Swing low chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines, cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia
Tidewater four ten O nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line

I stayed out late one night and you moved in
I didn't mind 'cause of the STATE you were in
May I remind you that it's been a year since then
Today the landlady, she said to me (what did she say?)
Your loony friend just made a pass at me (slap him in the face)
Perhaps you might enjoy a cottage by the sea
So pack your toys away
Your pretty boys away
Your 45's away
Your alibis away
Your Spanish flies away
Your one-more-tries away
Your old tie-dyes away
You're moving out today
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
Your nasty habits ain't confined to bed
The grocer told me what you do with bread (what do you do?)
Why don't you take up with the baker's wife instead of me? Fool!
Pack up your rubber duck
I'd like to wish you luck
Your funny cigarettes
Your 61 cassettes
Pack all your clothes away
Your rubber hose away
Your old-day-glos away
You're moving out today
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
Pack up your dirty looks
Your songs that have no hooks
Your stacks of Modern Screen
Your portrait of the Queen
Your mangy cat away
Your baby fat away
You're headed that-a-way
You're moving out today
Pack up your fork and spoon
Please leave my Lorna Doones
Your map of Mozambique
Your water bed that leaks
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Can't help it, the girl can't help it
Can't help it, the girl can't help it
Can't help it, the girl can't help
Get out of my house, you dirty
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
I'm so sorry

And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll STATE my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all, and I stood tall
And did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, oh, no, not me
I did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
Yes, it was my way
Not forgetting Elvis

Beneath the old iron bridges, across the Victorian parks,
& all the frightened people running home before dark,
Past the Saturday morning cinema--
that lies crumbling to the ground,
& the piss stinking shopping centre in the new side of town.
I've come to smell the seasons change, & watch the city,
as the sun goes down again.
[Chorus:]
Here comes another winter, of long shadows & high hopes,
Here comes another winter, waitin for utopia,
waitin for hell to freeze over.
This is the land, where nothing changes,
the land of red buses & blue blooded babies,
This is the place, where pensioners are raped,
& the hearts are being cut, from the welfare state,
Let the poor drink the milk, while the rich eat the honey,
Let the bums count their blessings, while they count the money.
So many people, can't express what's on their minds,
Nobody knows them & nobody ever will,
Until their backs are broken & their dreams are stolen,
& they can't get what they want, then they're gonna get angry!
Well it ain't written in the papers, but its written on the walls
The way this country is divided to fall,
So the cranes are moving on the skyline--
Trying to knock down--this town
But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed,
from this country, that's sick, sad, and confused.
[Chorus]
The ammunition's being passed, and the lords been praised,
But the wars on the televisions will never be explained,
All the bankers gettin sweaty, beneath their white collars,
As the pound in our pocket, turns into a dollar.
This is the 51st STATE--of the U. S. A.
[repeat and fade]

Hallucinate, desegregate
Mediate, alleviate
Try not to hate, love your mate
Don't suffocate on your own hate
Designate your love as fate
A one-world STATE as human freight
The number eight, a white-black STATE
A gentle trait, a broken crate
A heavyweight or just too late
Like pretty Kate has sex ornate
Now devastate, appreciate
Depreciate, fabricate
Emulate, a truth dilate
Special date, the animal we ate
A guilt debate, the edge serrate
A better rate, the youth irate
Deliberate, fascinate
Deviate, reinstate
Liberate, too moderate
Recreate or detonate
Annihilate, atomic fate
Mediate, clear the slate
Activate, now radiate
A perfect STATE, a food on plate
Gravitate, the Earth's own weight
Designate your love as fate
At 98, we all rotate
Hallucinate, desegregate
Mediate, alleviate
Try not to hate, love your mate
Don't suffocate on your own hate
Designate your love as fate
A one-world STATE as human freight
The number eight, a white-black STATE
A gentle trait, the broken crate
A heavyweight or just too late
Like pretty Kate has sex ornate
Now devastate, appreciate
Depreciate, fabricate
Emulate, truth dilate
The special date, the animals we ate
Guilt debate, the edge serrate
A better rate, a youth irate
To liberate, to fascinate
And deviate and reinstate
Liberate, to liberate
Liberate, deliberate

Other men's fear strengthens you
As you march the streets
With hatred in your eyes
With combat boots and battle dress
All for the cause, strict in line
"Our country for our people" is what you claim
But who are our people?
Who decides whether one is scum
Or a fine example of our god fearing society,
You maybe?
Well if you are our future
There will be no place for me
I despise your ideas
And your clenched fist doesn't impress me
I won't feel sorry for you
You chose what you wanted to be
But I hope I don't live to see that day
No, not for me

To transgress out, out of a savage state of mind.
A deep rooted, continuous outcry.
Territory under rule.
But from whom?
Do we choose the right to not choose to be fools?
To grasp greedily, a freedom from pride.
A binding force, a source of strength.
Territory under rule.
But from whom?
Do we choose the right to not choose to be fools?
To be content to lose, an act of saving, of deliverance for a while.
For the knowing smile of "I told you so"
Fear and it's penalties, to utter such cries.
I think the choice is there to underule.

Yes, no, yes, no
Not, another word
you'll know what to do
Right
In your face they see it
In their face you...
Take it
Make up their minds
Aggression turns the screws
Fight
Take your piece and hold it
Make your piece and
Stand up, you know what it means
Wake up, time to live your dreams
Down by,
Law and they can't hold you
Dictate and control you
Hold onto your ideas
Down by,
Law and no one owns you
And all the shit they've thrown you
Pay back is a real bitch
Nothing's ever easy when you do it yourself
All you can do is try
Life's not unfair, life's just life
Death not suicide
Be all, and you'll be the end all
Life can be a real ball

Euphoria
Think,
On your feet, and stay one step ahead
Break
Take your brain and use it
Take their mind and...
Change,
An attitude, like you'd change your shorts
Right !

In their face you...
Stand up, you know what it means
Wake up, time to live your dreams
Down by,

Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach
Or to Hollywood
But I'm taking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York STATE of mind
I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York STATE of mind
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News
It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York STATE of mind

Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I wanna touch
I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild and free, so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy
Oh, look what you've done to this rock n' roll clown
Oh-oh, look what you've done

I don't want your photograph
I don't need your photograph
All I've got is a photograph

I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child, oh
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild and free, so far from me

I remember Paris in '49
The Champs-Élysées, Saint Michelle and old Beaujolais wine
And I recall that you were mine
In those Parisienne days
Looking back at the PHOTOGRAPHS
Those summer days spent outside corner cafes
Oh, I could write you paragraphs
About my old Parisienne days

When I think back on all the crap I've learned in highschool
It's a wonder I can think at all
Though my lack of education hasn't hurt me much
I can read the writings on the walls
[Chorus:]
Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera, I love to take a PHOTOGRAPH
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away
If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white
[Chorus]
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away, mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome, mama don't take my Kodachrome
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome and leave your boy so far from home
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome, whew whew, mama don't take my Kodachrome away

In Penny Lane, there is a barber showing PHOTOGRAPHS
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
And little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mac in the pouring rain
Very strange
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Wet beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit and meanwhile back in
Penny Lane, there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine
Penny Lane, is in my ears and in my eyes
A four of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway
Penny Lane, the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
And then, the fireman rushes in from the pouring rain
Very strange
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit and meanwhile back
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
Penny Lane

In the event of something happening to me
There is something i would like
You all to see
It's just a PHOTOGRAPH of someone that i knew
Have you seen my wife, mr jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud
You'll cause a landslide, mr jones
I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
Maybe someone is digging underground
Or have they given up and
All gone home to bed
Thinking those who once existed must be dead
Have you seen my wife, mr jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud
You'll cause a landslide, mr jones
In the event of something happening to me
There is something i would like
You all to see
It's just a photograph of someone that i knew
Hvae you seen my wife, mr jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud

Faded PHOTOGRAPH
Covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half
Memories in bits and pieces
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love
Ribbons from her hair
Souvenirs of days together
The ring she used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love with me tonight
I close my eyes and say a prayer
That in her heart she'll find
A trace of love still there
Somewhere, oh, oh
Traces of hope in the night
That she'll come back and dry
These traces of tears from my eyes

Powdered and alone

Half the world flies

Half the world cries

Half the world tries
To be the other half
Half of us divided

Lovin' can hurt
Lovin' can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
And when it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closin'
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer till our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home
Lovin' can heal
Lovin' can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know, know
I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece of ya
Mm, and it's the only thing we take with us when we die
Mm, we keep this love in this photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closin'
Hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen still
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer till our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
And if you hurt me
Well, that's okay, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages, you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Oh, you can fit me
Inside that necklace you got when you were sixteen
Next to your heartbeat, where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul
And if you hurt me
Well, that's okay, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages, you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost back on Sixth Street
Hearin' you whisper through the phone
"Wait for me to come home"

Put on your Bobbi-sox baby
Roll up your old blue jeans
There's a band playin down at the armory
Know's what rock and roll really means
I want to ride in your '55 T-bird
Drive through some old memories
I ain't after your body baby
I just want you to dance with me
I want to bop with you baby, all night long
I want to bop the night away
I want to make it night like it used to be
When our hearts were young and our souls were free
I want to bop with you baby, all night long
I want to be-bop with you baby till the break of dawn
I want to bop with you baby all night long
I got an old PHOTOGRAPH in my pocket
We were still in our teens
Lord knows I feel a lot older now
But you still look the same to me
Honey, you don't ever laugh like you used to
And I don't want to see you blue
If you ain't busy tonight and you think it's alright
This is what I want to do
Let's twist and shout
Oh, just like in the good old days
Baby, watch out
You know I just can't stand it when you look at me that way
I want to bop with you baby, all night long
I want to be-bop with you baby till the break of dawn
I want to bop with you baby all night
I want to bop with you baby all night long
I want to be-bop with you baby till the break of dawn
I want to make it a night like it used to be
When our hearts were young and our souls were free
I want to bop with you baby all night long
I want to be-bop with you baby till the break of dawn
I want to make it night like it used to be,
When our hearts were young and free

Look at this PHOTOGRAPH
Every time I do, it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red?
And what the hell is on Joey's head?
And this is where I grew up
I think the present owner fixed it up
I never knew we'd ever went without
The second floor is hard for sneaking out
And this is where I went to school
Most of the time had better things to do
Criminal record says I broke in twice
I must have done it half a dozen times
I wonder if it's too late
Should I go back and try to graduate?
Life's better now than it was back then
If I was them, I wouldn't let me in
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, God, I...
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
Remember the old arcade
Blew every dollar that we ever made
The cops hated us hangin' out
They say, "Somebody went and burned it down"
We used to listen to the radio
And sing along with every song we know
We said, "Someday we'd find out how it feels
To sing to more than just the steering wheel"
Kim's the first girl I kissed
I was so nervous that I nearly missed
She's had a couple of kids since then
I haven't seen her since God knows when
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, God, I...
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
I miss that town, I miss the faces
You can't erase, you can't replace it
I miss it now, I can't believe it
So hard to stay, too hard to leave it
If I could relive those days
I know the one thing that would never change
Every memory of looking out the back door
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door
I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for
It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye
Look at this photograph
Every time I do, it makes me laugh
Every time I do, it makes me...
I have stepped in just in case Bella! Is unwell and can’t post.

Oh it's been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see
Oh, I see a man in the back as a matter of fact
His eyes was as red as the sun
And the girl in the corner that no one ignores
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one
Oh yeah! It was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
And the man in the back said, "Everyone ATTACK"
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said, "Boy I want to warn you"
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz, ballroom blitz
Oh reaching out for something
Touching nothing's all I ever do
Oh I softly call you over
Then you appear there's nothing left of you
And the man in the back is ready to crack
As he raises his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's mourner
She could kill you with a wink of her eye
Oh yeah! It was electric
So frantically hectic
And the band started leaving
'Cause they all stopped breathing
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
And the man in the back said, "Everyone attack"
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said, "Boy I want to warn you"
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz

Don't know how to take it, don't know where to go
My resistance's running low
And everyday the hold is getting tighter and it troubles me so
You know that I'm nobody's fool
I'm nobody's fool and yet it's clear to me
I don't have a strategy
It's just like taking candy from a baby
And I think I must be
Under ATTACK , I'm being taken
About to crack, defenses breaking
Won't somebody see and save a heart?
Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart
Under attack, I'm taking cover
He saw my track, my chasing lover
Thinking nothing's gonna stop him now
Should I want to, I'm not sure, I won't know how
Now this is getting crazy, I should tell him so
Really let my anger show
'Cause waiting at the answer to his questions is a definite blow
I'm kind of certain that's the truth
Guess I'm kind of flattered but I'm scared as well
Something like a magic spell
I hardly dare to think of what could happen
Where I'd be if I fell
Under attack, I'm being taken
About to crack, defenses breaking
Won't somebody see and save a heart?
Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart
Under attack, I'm taking cover

And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite

Writhe in Satan's flames
Crush the priest

Dead, your god is dead
Fools, your god is dead
Useless prayers of lies
Behold Satan's rise
Crush the priest

Lust upon the altar
Demons attack with hate
Satan in the fires of hell awaits
Death against you all
God hear my death call
Crush the priest

Everybody smiles at you
Hey there, Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around, see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
Mr. Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind, I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey there Mr. Blue (sky)
We're so pleased to be with you (sky)
Look around see what you do (blue)
Everybody smiles at you
Please Mr Postman - Carpenters

From my boyfriend so far away

For just a card, or just a letter
Sayin' he's returnin' home to me

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Sandman, I'm so alone
Don't have nobody to call my own
Please turn on your magic brean
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Give him the word that I'm not a rover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Give him a pair of eyes with a come hither gleam
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
And lots of wavy hair like Liberace
Mister Sandman, someone to hold
Would be so peachy before we're too old
Sp please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman, bring us
Please, please, please
Mister Sandman, bring us a dream

I get up around seven
Get outta bed around nine
And I don't worry about nothin' no
'Cause worrying's a waste of my time
The show usually starts around seven
We go on stage at nine
Get on the bus at eleven
Sippin' a drink and feelin' fine
We been dancin' with
MR. Brownstone
He's been knockin'
He won't' leave me alone
No, no, no
He won't leave me alone
I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' to get a little better
Said, a little better than before
I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' to get a little better
Said, a little better than before
We been dancin' with
MR. Brownstone
He's been knockin'
He won't leave me alone
No, no, no
He won't leave me alone
Now, I get up around whenever
I used to get up on time
But that old man, he's a real motherfucker
Gonna kick him on down the line
I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' to get a little better
Said, a little better than before
I used to do a little but a little wouldn't do
So the little got more and more
I just keep tryin' to get a little better
Said, a little better than before
We been dancin' with
MR. Brownstone
He's been knockin'
He won't leave me alone
No, no no
He won't leave me alone
Oh, leave me alone
Stuck it in the middle and I shot it in the middle
And it, it drove outta my mind
I should've known better, said I wish I never met her
Said, I leave it all behind
Yowza

MISTER Moonlight
You came to me one summer night
And from your beam you made my dream
And from the world you sent my girl
And from above you sent us love
And now she is mine, I think you're fine
'Cause we love you, Mister Moonlight
Mister Moonlight, come again please
Here I am on my knees begging if you please
And the night you don't come my way
I pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mister Moonlight
And the night you don't come my way
Oh, I pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mister Moonlight
Mister Moonlight, come again please
Here I am on my knees begging if you please
And the night you don't come my way
Oh, I pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mister Moonlight
Mister Moonlight, Mister Moonlight, Mister Moonlight
