Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is cheating. no cheating, please!

I challenge everyone to get more 10 without looking them up.

1.  The countryside is overgrown.  There's a lighthouse in your soul.

2.  And through the life force and there goes her friend, On her Nishiki it's out of time,
And through the portal they can make amends.  (I had to look this one up just to figure out what the artist was actually saying)

3.  When you ate i saw your eyelashes, Saw them shake like wind on rushes
ipecac_icecap  Joana Newsom - "Cosmia"

4.  Step in the club smoothly with the el in my hand, bitches know that I'm a freak, like the Elephant Man.

5.  Every morning he got up, dreading each moment he had to be awake.

6.  Being without you has turned out to be so inconvenient.

7.  Before I was a war, I was a sword.  Before I was a tree, I was a seed.

8.  Don't get any big ideas, they're not gonna happen.

9.  Thinking outrageously, I write in cursive, I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor.

10.  Well you're my friend, and can you see,  Many times we've been out drinking, Many times we've shared our thoughts, but did you ever, ever notice the kind of thoughts I got? 
ipecac_icecap  "I See a Darkness" - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

11.  I recall the moment, but I can't recall the day, every other song to say, okay.

12.  Gee, but it's hard, when one lowers ones guard to the vultures.

13.  Everybody come together.  Free.  Everybody get together.  Free.

14.  They're tearing up streets again, they're building a new hotel, the mayor is out killing kids to keep taxes down. 
ipecac_icecap  "My Favorite Chords" - The Weakerthans

15.  Orgullecida estoy de ser divina y de tener tan linda prefeccion, tal vez sera que soy albastrina, seran los filtros reinos del amor.  (my spell checker did not like this one -  and it is missing diacritical marks)

16.   Looking round the room, I can tell that you, are the most beautiful girl in the...room. 
redaragorn  "The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room" - Flight of the Conchords

17.  See, I've been a moonshiner ever since that I've been born.

18.  I'm rich, like a hot noise.

19.  I didn't mean to treat you so bad.  You shouldn't take it so personal.  ipecac_icecap   "One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)" - Bob Dylan

20.  Death may come, invisible or in a holy wall of fire in the breath between the markers on some black I-80 mile.

I had to skip about 10 songs because they had no lyrics.
