Going from where Ruadh left off…

Possibly a verse from that song

You can tell my lips  
Or you can tell my hips  
That you’re going to dump me if you can  
But don’t you tell my liver  
It never would forgive her  
It might blow up and circumcise this man!

I happen to have with me, at this very moment, Dave Barry’s _Book of Bad Songs_.

* * *

I am, I said,  
To no one there,  
And no one heard at all,  
Not even the chair…

* * *

Turn on your heart light,  
Let it shine wherever you go,  
Let it make a happy glow  
For all the world to see!

Oh, and just for JillGat:

Ooh, here’s one I just thought of. I like it, but you guys might hate it. Which is the idea, right?

"The leader of the band is tired  
And his eyes are growin’ old (?)  
But his blood runs through my instruments  
And his song is in my soul…

My life has been a poor attempt  
To imitate the man  
I’m just a living legacy  
To the leader of the band"

I gave my sister a copy of Dave Barry’s Book of Bad Songs for Christmas. That particular part had her in hysterics, although that might be in part because we had our own parody version at one point. The only part I can remember now is the chorus. It went a little something like this:

Don’t tell my bladder  
My freaky leaky bladder  
I just don’t think you understand  
And if you tell my bladder  
My freaky leaky bladder  
I’ll just go and overflow the can!  
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

However, I’m surprised that no one’s mentioned:

Girl, you know it’s true… Oo oo oo, I want you…

NOOOOOOOOOOO! Get out of my head! Out out out out out out out!!! I can’t take it anymore!

BLAM!!!

Wait, is that the one that goes

“Girl, you know it’s true  
All I have to do  
Is take a look at you  
Then I’m not so blue…”

Yeah, but Nicky, I challenge you to give us the next line from that song (without looking it up on-line). LOL.

My additional entries…

I met her on a Monday and my heart stood still  
Da Do Ron Ron Ron. Da Do Ron Ron.  
Somebody told me that her name was Jill

Midnight at the oasis  
Send your camel to bed  
Shadows paintin’ our faces  
Traces of romance in our heads

Heaven’s holdin’ a half-moon  
Shinin’ just for us  
Let’s slip off to a sand dune, real soon  
And kick up a little dust

Come on, Cactus is our friend  
He’ll point out the way  
Come on, till the evenin’ ends  
Till the evenin’ ends

You don’t have to answer  
There’s no need to speak  
I’ll be your belly dancer, prancer  
And you can be my sheik

* * *

Looooooovin’ you is easy ‘cause you’re beautiful  
Makin’ love with you is aaaaaaall I waaaaaaana do  
Lovin’ you is more than just a dream come true  
Everything that I do is out of looooooovin’ you

No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring  
Stay with me while we grow old  
And we will live each day in springtime

Looooooovin’ you has made my life so beautiful  
And every day of my — liiiiiiiife is filled with loooooooovin’ you  
Lovin’ you I see your soul come shining through  
And every time that we — ooooh I’m more in love with you

La la la la la. La la la la la. La la la la la la la la-la. [high piercing shriek]EEEEEEEEeeeeeeee-eeeeeeeeeeee!

Is that sufficient torture for you? :evil grin:

You know, every time I think I’ve thought of a new one, I discover Dirty Devil’s already beat me to it.

I **think** this one was missed:

I’m not aware of too many things  
I know what I know if you know what I mean

Philosophy is a talk on a cereal box  
Religion is a smile on a dog

I’m not aware of too many things  
I know what I know if you know what I mean

Choke me in the shallow water  
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am, are you what you are or what?

The scary thing is, some of the songs listed I actually _like_ having running through my head. Haven’t thought about Men Without Hats in ages…

But to throw some fuel onto this raging fire, howz about:

Poor old Johnny Ray  
Sounded sad upon the radio  
He moved a million hearts in mono  
Our mothers cried and sang along and who’d blame them?  
Now you’re grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever  
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye  
And we can sing just like our fathers …

Come on Eileen! Well, I swear (what he means)  
At this moment, you mean everything  
With you in that dress, my thoughts I confess  
Verge on dirty …  
Ah, come on Eileen!

OK, it’s time to stop being nice and get the heavy artillery out. Brace thyselves.

" Rooooooooooooooooxeanne…  
You don’t have to put on the red light "

" We both lie silent and still in the dead of the night  
Although we both lie close together,  
We feel miles apart inside  
Was it something I said or something I did,  
Did my words not come out right? "

(And get ready for this, MoosieGirl 😃 )  
" Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (4X)

Night to night  
Gimme the other, gimme the other  
chance tonight  
Gimme the other, gimme the other  
Night to night  
Gimme the other, gimme the other world

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (4X)"

Cristi, I also love Safety Dance! (Although what the hell does that title mean, anyway?)

And Ruadh, how dare you smear Boy George?! Here’s a sample for ‘ya’:

"I’ll be your baby  
I’ll be your score  
I’ll run the gun for you and  
so…much…more!

I’ll tumble for ya!  
I’ll tumble for ya!  
I’ll tumble for ya!  
I’ll tumble for you!"

heh heh

Here’s one I really hate:

"Have I told you lately  
that I love you  
Have I told you  
There’s no one else  
Above you

You fill my heart with gladness  
Take away all my sadness  
Ease my troubles  
That’s what you do"
