Apologies, Chef. **Think** of you fits the meter.  
Of course, now that I know the **whole damn song** , I must head to the beach and make that dive…

If it jams, force it; if it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.

And to think that I actually used to _like_ you guys.

"IIIIII’ll tell ya what I want, what I really really want!

So tell us what ya want, what ya really really want!"

“I’ll tell ya what I want, what I really really want!”

Hey! I **like** the Bangles!

Walk like an egyptian…

## Now here’s a song that always gets me singing “go away!”, especially since I liked it in my younger days:

Ooo my little pretty one, pretty one  
when you gonna give me some time Sharona  
Will you make my motor run, motor run,  
honey coming off of the line Sharona

chorus:  
Never gonna stop give it up such a dirty mind  
Always get it up from the touch of the younger kind  
My My My Sharona (4x)

Come a little closer huh be a hon  
Close enough to look in my eyes Sharona  
Keep a little mystery get to me  
Running down the length of my thigh Sharona

(chorus)

When you gonna give to me give to me  
Is it just a mater of time Sharona  
Here’s a trip to destiny to destiny  
Or is it just a game in my mind Sharona

(chorus)

Burt Bacharach Fest!

\<i\>Tom Jones:\</i\>  
What’s new, pussycat?  
Whoa-oh whoa-oh whoa-oh  
What’s new, pussycat?  
Whoa-oh whoa-oh whoa-oh ohhh

\<i\>Glen Campbell:\</i\>  
Raindrops keep falling on my head  
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed  
Nothin’ seems to fit  
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling…

\<i\>Dionne Warwick:\</i\>  
Do you know the way to San Jose?  
I’ve been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.  
Do you know the way to San Jose?  
I’m going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.

\<i\>The Carpenters:\</i\>  
Why do birds suddenly appear  
Every time you are near?  
Just like me, they long to be  
Close to you  
Wahhhh ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhhhh, close to you…

and another Carpenter fave (don’t know who wrote it):  
I’m on the top of the world, lookin’  
Down on creation  
And the only explanation I can find  
Is the love that I’ve found  
Ever since you’ve been around  
Yor love’s putting me at the top of the world

\<b\>Sealeamon88\</b\> - Warrant, LOL! The others are good, too…

Ahhm…  
"I’ve been alive forever,  
and I wrote the very first song.  
I put the words and the melodies together,  
I am music,  
and I write the songs.  
I write the songs that make the whole world sing.  
I write the songs of love and special thing s.  
I write the songs that make the young girls cry.  
I write the songs, I write the songs.  
My home lies deep within you,  
and I’ve got my own place in your sole.  
Now, when I look out through your eyes,  
I’m you’g again, even though I’m very old.  
I write the songs that make the whole world sing.  
I write the songs of love and special things.  
I write the songs that make the young girls cry.  
I write the songs, I write the songs.  
Oh my music makes you dance  
and gives your spiri t to take a chance,  
and I wrote some rock ‘n’ roll so you can move.  
Music fills your heart,  
well, that’s a real fine place to start.  
It’s from me it’s for you,  
it’s from you, it’s from me,  
it’s a world wide symphony.  
I write the song s that make the whole world sing.  
I write the songs of love and special things.  
I write the songs that make the young girls cry.  
I write the songs, I write the songs. "

I had to go to a Barry Manilow website to get these lyrics…SHUDDER. I may never recover.

Ack! Thanks for the memories I’d thought I’d supressed. Not.

Just for that…

“Danke Schoen, darling Danke Schoen. Thank you for all the joy and pain.  
Picture shows, second balcony, was the place we’d meet, second seat, go Dutch treat, you were sweet.”

Shared pain is lessened; shared joy is increased.

That’s the night that the lights went out in Georgia  
That’s the night that they hung an innocent man.  
You don’t trust your soul to no backwoods Southern lawyer  
When the judge in the town’s got bloodstains on his hands.

My first post since the board came back up and it had to be this.

Okay… I really like this song so when it get’s stuck I don’t mind so much… only problem is… IT ALWAYS STICKS…

"The love we shared…  
seems to go no where…  
and I’ve lost my mind…  
I toss and turn I can’t sleep at night…

Once I ran to you…  
Now I run from you…  
This tainted love your giving…  
I give you all a boy could give you…  
Take my tears and that’s not really aaaallll… Tainted love…"

Replay the words in your mind and SUFFER!!!

## Muhahahahaha…

Baby when I met you there was peace unknown  
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb :roll eyes:  
I was soft inside  
There was something going on  
You do something to me that I can’t explain  
Hold me closer and I feel no pain  
Every beat of my heart  
We got something going on  
Tender love is blind  
It requires a dedication  
All this love we feel needs no conversation  
We can ride it together , ah ha  
Making love with each other, ah ha

Islands in the stream  
That is what we are  
No one in between  
How can we be wrong  
Sail away with me  
To another world  
And we rely on each other, ah ha  
From one lover to another, ah ha

Ohmygod, ohmygod… I’m new and you’ll certainly hate me now, just couldn’t resist sharing this torture, hoping it will lessen my pain.

City traffic’s movin’ way too slow  
Drop the pedal and go  
Go  
Go

We goin’ ridin’ on the freeway of love  
Wind’s against our back  
We goin’ ridin’ on the freeway of love
