201:  
No sleepin’, she waits tables late, tryin’ to stay tough  
Never ending, however long she waits, it’s just not enough

202:  
There’s a message I’m receiving  
And it’s coming in clear  
But it’s not the one that I need to hear

So if seeing is believing  
You better take another look  
Because I’m half-way gone  
And I’m hardly here

And make mine 206, so for clarity…

Biggirl: right you are - the Jackson in question is Jermaine.

1. And when you’ve taken down your guard  
They thought they’d change your mind - I’d really like to break your heart

2. She don’t like losing…to her, it’s still a game  
But once she gets under your skin, you’re never quite the same

3. I will never love again the way I loved you  
And I will never cry again like I did when I left you

209 = “Invisible Touch” - Genesis

**211** :  
Time’s standing still…I don’t know which way to go.

**212** :  
Subtle innuendos follow - must be something inside.

**213** :  
You know, I’m still your loverboy, I still feel the same way.

ARGH, try this for 211:

Lost in a dream - I don’t know which way to go.

(I accidentally took the first part of one line and the second part of another line in my original clue…not that it matters very much, as the song itself is sophomoric pap.)

214: Imagine a man where it all began- a scientist pacing the floor  
in each nation, always eager to explore.

214 is by Rush, but I can’t for the life of me remember which song it is because I’m a pile of suck. Red Barchetta maybe?

**216**  
He had an old standby…not your average Betty  
She told me things that I guess I always knew  
_(That one might be 1990…if it is, sorry)_

**217** :  
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain - don’t give up the game until your heart stops beating

**218** :  
Tightened our belts, abuse ourselves  
Get in our way, we’ll put you on your shelf
