Finally, a not-annoying meme.
1. Shuffle your playlist.
2. Of the first 25 songs that come up, no matter how embarassing, put your favourite lyric on your LJ. Try not to include the title.
3. Open season to your f-list to see who can guess the most songs.
4. Strike the songs off as they are guessed correctly.
songs currently found:
1. "But not a real green dress, that's cruel."
2. "Here comes again / Blood in the vein / Seven a.m., the cars come"
3. "Has he taken any time / To show you what you need to live?"
4. "Fallen leaves in the night / Who can say where they're blowing"
5. "Your rule of thumb / Makes me worry some"
6. "The smell of hospitals in winter / And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls"
7. "Come down to my house / Stick a stone in your mouth"
8. [instrumental-- will add another song onto end to compensate for it. it's Count Basie's "Corner Pocket," by the way.]
9. "watching out for a sunny day / where there's love and darkness and my sidearm"
10. "Tattoos of memories / And dead skin on trial"
11. "Got that old black feeling and it's out to trace / Feels like..."
12. "But I'll be a bag of bones / Driving down the road alone"
13. "Keep coming up with love / But it’s so slashed and torn / Why why why?" (the lyrics I actually like best give it away :P)
14. "And even without clucking like a hen / Everyone gets noticed, now and then..."
15. "Too many mountains and not enough stairs to climb. / Too many churches and not enough truth. / Too many people and not enough eyes to see. / Too many lives to lead and not enough time."
16. "Black-eyed angels swam with me / A moon full of stars and astral cars / All the things I used to see"
17. "Gonna paint a wagon... gonna paint it fine... gonna use oil-based paint cause the wood is pine... (PonderOOOSa pine, wooo-ooo.)" (NOTE: the source is all that's needed for this one)
18. "Colored lights can hypnotize / Sparkle someone else's eyes"
19. "Let’s make the best of the situation / Before I finally go insane."
20. "So I turned myself to face me / But I've never caught a glimpse"
21. "My name was Brian McGee / I stayed up listening to Queen / When I was seventeen..." NOTE: only the source of the song needed.
22. "So that night, when he came home, I fixed him his drink as usual."
23. "I found an island in your arms / Country in your eyes"
24. "I know tomorrow brings the consequence At hand. / But I keep livin’ this day like / The next will never come."
25. [different version of 19, so another song tacked onto end]
26. "And these minstrels will soothe my jangled nerves... ... Have the Rolling Stones killed." Only source of song needed.
27. "If you ever get annoyed look at me I'm self-employed / I love to work at nothing all day"
and i added in a bonus for kicks, as it is witty. But only if you know the full song, so hah.
28. "Now that was the life / No worries no pain / Just stay in my place / and grow a little more each day"
