Song Lyrics!

Rizla and I played this at the Victory Show and it proved quite successful (even if some players were somewhat intoxicated!) so I thought we could try a Forum version.

You post 2-4 lines of lyrics from a song (preferably not the chorus). The next member to post the correct song title and its artist (without Googling or any other form of cheating!) then posts up lyrics to a song they know.

I'll start:

I was the third brother of five,
Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
I'm not saying what I did was alright,
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day fight.

Have fun

i like the idea but i have no idea lol

Hmmm. Clueless. Sounds like the king of rock n roll?

Well done Riz! I think it was featured in that film. Title was "Across 110th Street" by Bobby Womack.

Yours is too easy as well! "Get Ready", which has been covered by no end of bands but I believe it was originally written by Smokey Robinson (could be wrong there though).

Here you go:

I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick,
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray.
Lying cold the way you left them,
But at least your lips caressed them while you packed.

its a costello song but i cant remeber wich one

i give up

yup ben, written by smokey, sang by the temptations.

as you turn to walk away, as the door behind you clo o o o ses, the only thing i have to say,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,its been a good year for the roses.
this is about the only record i like by elvis costelo.

ok, this is one of my all time favorites,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, i met one of the band members at a petrol station on the m42 years ago while he was filling up his mercedes.



during the war time an american pilot,
made every air raid a time of excitement,
she moved to his prairi and marriedthe texan,
she learned from a distance how love was a lesson,

I hate this game..................

Rizla, I know you told me the name of the song at the weekend, but I don't remember what it was. I did know the artist before that though - Squeeze!

Easy one now for all those struggling...

How does it feel,
To treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me,
And told me who you are.

Cheers,
Ben.

blue monday new order

Well done Mark, you have to post one now...

but now i see you dont hear a thing
got to make you see
how its got to be

(one of my favourites)

I never have been a fan of The Small Faces... "All or Nothing" I think the song was titled?

Dig the music Mr. DJ
Macka music wheel a spinning.
Suffer not an' feel de rhythm
Arise a humble, poor, oppressed and needy
