Whoa...sorry about that. I just wanted to make sure it was right before I do anything. Okay, here's a fairly older, semi-obscure one.:

Standing in line marking time--
Waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes
Just for fun he says "Get a job"


Have fun!

Right, it was "Lovecats" by the Cure.


But I know this one!
"The Way It Is," by Bruce Hornsby & The Range

Ok, here's a new one, and I'll post the entire song's lyrics...



Please could you stop the noise, I'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)

When I am king, you will be first against the wall
With your opinion which is of no consequence at all
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)

Ambition makes you look pretty ugly
Kicking and squealing gucci little piggy
You don't remember
You don't remember
Why don't you remember my name?
Off with his head, man
Off with his head, man
Why don't you remember my name? I guess he does...

Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me

That's it, sir
You're leaving
The crackle of pigskin
The dust and the screaming
The yuppies networking
The panic, the vomit
The panic, the vomit
God loves his children, God loves his children, yeah!

That was "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead, one of my all-time favorite bands. If you haven't heard the album "Hail to the Thief" yet, go do it.

New one, been stuck in my head since I got this cd:

Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road
The wait is over
I'm now taking over
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough

Reptilia, by The Strokes. Here's one of my all-time favourite lyrics:

Forgive me father, but I've fallen in love
and that's all I have for confession today.

Hmm... alright. That one was Blame It On Me by Barenaked Ladies.

Something a little more recent now I guess...

Oh, my God, I woke up with a snake tattoo,
Oh, my God, and I think that my tongue's pierced too!

Hehe...Sunday Morning After by Amanda Marshall.

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now

Patience by Guns n' Roses.

Next:

Ah the cat was rough and tough and would strutt his stuff
Had the whole town scared to death,
When he walked by they all held their breath,
He's a fighting man, sure enough

Sorry to have to pick your fourth post to look at as well as your third, but I think you need to guess which song has just been posted before submitting one of your own.

However, as with most of the quotes on here, I can't say I've heard those lyrics before, though.

Nice, first time I check this thread, and it is a quote from a Dutch band.

Big Bad Bill by Van Halen.

I did not read the complete thread, so I will just have to hope this song did not come by yet. *G*

I wonder if the stars sign
The life that is to be mine
And would they let their light shine
Enough for me to follow

Enya - Anywhere Is

Umm... I got one! I got one!

Feel it turning your heart into stone
Feel it piercing your courageous soul

Whew! Was already starting to wonder if this was a hit this side of the Atlantic only. Then again - you are in the UK, so it still might be... *G*

WTG!

Feeling turning your heart into stone
Feeling piercing your courageous soul

Are you sure this should read "Feeling" and not "Feel it"?

(I think I know the song, but will leave others a chance first, anyway)

Not that it bothers me, but you do know that you posted in a thread that was 3 years, 21 days, 23 hours and 32 minutes old, riiiiiight?

Thought so.

There is a problem that I brought up:

They say machines never forget, but memory chips go on the fritz from time to time, so it wouldn't hurt to test yourself in a game of Lyric Tag. Maybe you want to stick to DROD--

I think that if people want to play this game, it's fine to resurrect it. For one thing, it's better to have it all in one thread than to start a new one. And Jason does have a good point as well.
