Well, it looks like this thread is dying, so I’ll give the answer to my “stumper” that no one got:

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

Is from Debbie Gibson’s “Foolish Beat”

Since we’re apparently providing the answers to any remaining stumpers, #87 is “Talking All That Jazz” by Stetsasonic\* and #114 is “Beat Surrender” by the Jam.

\*Note: Having re-listened to the song since originally posting, the lyrics quoted really should’ve started with “Tell the truth…” not “Face facts…”

And for those like Hamadryad who are trying to keep this thing going:

1. “All my instincts, they return/And the grand facade so soon will burn”

2. “My old man’s got a problem/He lives with the bottle, that’s the way it is/He says his body’s too old for working/I sat his body’s too young to look like his.”

And 234 = “Fast Car,” Tracy Chapman.

**235** :  
Maybe he don’t dress fine, but I don’t really mind.

**236** :  
I think they think I must be out of touch.

**237** :  
I want the doctor to take a picture so I could look at you from inside as well

**238** :  
She’ll give you every penny’s worth - but it will cost you a dollar per.

I’m going to guess it’s “She’s A Beauty” by the Tubes.

Those were all right. The female singer is **Deneice Williams**.

**239** :  
I would go out tonight but I haven’t got a stitch to wear

**240** :  
He wants me, but only part of the time  
He wants me if he can keep me in line

**241** :  
Don’t say goodbye, don’t say goodbye - in the final seconds, who’s gonna save you?

**242** :  
EVerything to show and everything to hide - look into my eyes
