Damn! No wonder it wasn’t working! How many times do they have to tell me, “Ricky, don’t lose that number!” but I never pay any attention to them, because my name’s G-L-O-R-I-A!

But is Elvis King of the Road?

Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let 50 cents. No phone, no pool, no pets. I ain’t got no cigarettes…

Dang me.

Yes, but what if it was Romeo in black jeans? What if it was Heathcliff? That’s no myth. I’m just looking for someone to dance with.

You can dance if you want to, you can leave your friends behind. But your friends gotta dance, and if they don’t dance, then they’re no friends of mine.

So there.

I need at least one more dance. A last dance, last dance for love. Yes, it’s my last chance for romance tonight. I need you by me, beside me to guide me, to hold me to scold me. 'Cause when I’m bad I’m so, so bad. So let’s dance the last dance. Let’s dance the last dance. Let’s dance, this last dance tonight.

Yeah, but how can we dance when the world is turning? How do we sleep while our beds are burining? The time has come to say “fair’s fair”, to pay the rent, yeah, to pay our share.

Our beds are burning?

We didn’t start the fire! It was always burning since the worlds been turning! We didn’t start the fire. No, we didn’t light it, but we’re trying to fight it.

(You’ve) got to give us what we want; Gotta give us what we need! Our freedom of speech is freedom or death. We got to fight the powers that be! Lemme hear you say: Fight the power!  
Anybody in this thread know the reference on that one (w/o Google)?

You’d get something like: And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know there ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone.
