Everybody’s right so far - these are the only two left:

  1. What does a patient boy do?
  2. Where would you find a desperate man (although you might have to really look)?
67

The very one!

68
  1. He waits, he waits, he waits.

One more - it’s actually the one I thought would go first.

  1. Where would you find a desperate man (although you might have to really look)?

  1. The Keystone Bridge?

It wasn’t intended to be John Hardy (although “desperate little man” would have been good question material). The artist I had in mind is much loved on the SDMB.

  1. So I can look at you from inside as well.

Funny, but I have no idea what song this is from. I’m singing these lines to myself (I want a doctor… to take your picture… so I can look at you from inside as well) over and over, but it’s not helping. It’s making me hate the song (whatever it is) a little, though.

Never mind - got it.

78
  1. Cause I think that any love is good loving.

Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that’s where they expect it least–Blinded by the Light
