I bid thee greetings dusk, my companion of old
I am returned to once more commune with you.

---

My belief is that it occurs due to my lack of grace
I strive to speak softly
Perhaps it occurs due to my lack of sanity
I struggle to not appear overly vain.

---

Gain possession of me at this moment, my love, in this place, in my current condition
cleave to me, venture to comprehend

You are correct!

[J.Frank_Parnell]

Have you ever, upon visting the domicile of an acquaintance for the purpose of enjoying an evening repast, discovered that the comestibles were of doubtful integrity?

By which I mean that the semolina product was of a watery consistency, the green vegetables had lost there individual forms in favor of a single indistinguishable mass, and the Gallus domesticus had acquired the flavor of an oak.

[TeaRoses]

J. Frank Parnell, is that the Sugar Hill Gang’s Rapper’s Delight?

Masterfully done if so.

[meyer]

One of mine that I’m pretty sure hasn’t been answered (if it has, sorry, this thread is getting tricky to navigate.

OS7: All persons present find disgust with all other persons present for their respective actions up to this point. Because of this, it is preferable for us to keep our current situation’s decibel level at nil, as opposed to more than nil. I am consumed with regret for my past actions, yet am uncertain as to how I should set about initiating the process by which things will return to their previously satisfactory state.

Is this Back to Good by Matchbox 20?

[Empress_Jolrael]

I think I know the answer to TeaRoses’ DSM-IV puzzle… (apologies if someone’s already solved it)

“I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell…” ~ 3am, Matchbox 20

Thanks to my sister for verifying.
Yay! I’m not a lurker anymore!

[Empress_Jolrael]

Oops. The title’s “Unwell,” not “3am.”

Proof that I shouldn’t talk on the phone while typing.:smack:

**Desist your eminations of fussing at this moment and weep not.
Extirpate the lacrimal gland secretion from your ocular organ. **

Since it’s been almost a day, and no one’s even guessed yet, I’ll add the next two lines:

You’re reposing securely in the furniture utilized for slumbering.
Everything was a malignant hallucination revolving in your cranium.

Females adore me because said females recognize my ability to make good music
Females adore me because said females recognize my ability to make cadance
Females adore me because said females recognize my ability to be punctual **

Bitches: Mindless Self Indulgence, nice obscure one.

Queenryche - Silent lucidity

Bring 'em on! This kicks ass! Any more out there not solved?

[Ludovic]

yeah, flight. mine:

In a list of objects in the solar system which exercise the weakest of the classical four forces upon objects on the Earth, ranked from weakest to strongest, the ultimate and antipenultimate objects on this list embody my existence. The relative statistical frequency of my reticence is high enough to imply that legal penalties for it are appropriate.

I’ll even add more of the lyrics:

Kindly cause your oral orifice to cease to be in the agape position. Demonstrate the reason you would assert that the manner in which I perform various unspecified actions is incorrect. It is required that every member of Homo Sapiens Sapiens be the object of a state of mind in which the subject perceives the object in an affectionate manner, and I, as a member of that group, have that as a requirement.

**Natalie Merchant- Because the night **

Ntipick: It was written by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith. Bruce wrote the music and chorus, but due to legal battle with his manager couldn’t record it, so he gave it to Smith, who wrote the verses and recorded it.

First is “We Can Work It Out” – Beetles

Last is “Big Yellow Taxi” – Joni Mitchell (redone recently by Counting Crows).

Don’t know the second one.
