Where is my mind?
The Rules:
Step 1: Put your iPod/MP3 player or iTunes on random.
Step 2: Post the a line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post it on your blog and let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Update the list with the song title when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Make your guesses by leaving a comment or sending me email. You have to identify both title and artist, and you're not allowed to Google any of these, either.
1. The last train is nearly due, the underground is closing soon, and in the dark deserted station,restless in anticipation,a man waits in the shadows. a poem on the underground wall - simon and garfunkel outofthisplace
2. Oh, your life collides with mine. Leavin' our shoes behind, we cross the water, our words flow from mouth to mouth, to mouth. Like fish, seeking dark
places.
3. I roll the window down, and then begin to breathe in, the darkest country road, and the strong scent of evergreen. From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.

4. I wore the time like a dress that year, the autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin. But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared, my heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within. But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in fullAnd sank in the burrows of my keep.
5. Hey, little girl I wanna be your boyfriend
Sweet little girl I wanna be your boyfriend
Do you love me babe? What do you say? Do you love me babe?
What can I say? Because I wanna be your boyfriend
i wanna be your boyfriend - the ramones _glass_curtain
6. We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea.
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me.
Think of all the things we've shared and seen,
Don't think about the way things might have been.

7. Yet despite this imperfection
he was clean looking and respectable looking
and you'll never find a mother
who doesn't appreciate a natural man

8. Freedom writer
They cursed my brother to his face
Go home outsider
This town's gonna be your buryin' place
9. I'm aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
Over silbury hill
Through the solar field
You know that I will follow you
10. I won't forget when Peter Pan came to my house, took my hand
I said I was a boy, I'm glad he didn't check.
I learned to fly, I learned to fight, I lived a whole life in one night
We saved each other's lives out on the pirate's deck.

11. Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
pinball wizard- the who outofthisplace
12. It's a good year for a murder
she's praying to jesus, she's pulling the trigger
there's no tears, cause he's not here
she washes her hands, and she fixes the dinner
but soon they'll be coming to rush her away
no one's so sure if her crime had a reason
13. The water is wide, I can't cross ov'. And neither I, have wings to fly. Give me a boat, to carry two. And both shall row, my love and I.
14. That very same morning right next to her coffee
She noticed some bleeding and heard hollow coughing and
National Geographic was being too graphic,
When all she had wanted to know was the traffic
“The worlds got a nosebleed” it said
“And we’re flooding but we keep on cutting
The trees and the forests!”

15. It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take

16. Now all I want to know is how to go
I've tasted blood and I want more
I'll put up no resistance, I want to stay the distance
I've got an itch to scratch, I need assistance...

17. And love
It's not the easy thing
The only baggage
That you can bring
Not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind
all that you can't leave behind - U2 zombiecal
18. Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh, 'Wait for me, wait for me'
'I'll be coming home, wait for me!'
19. We agreed on a fee -- A thousand dollar guarantee
Tax-free -- and a bonus if I trim her tree
Now who could foretell that it would go so well
But sure as I am here that dog is now in doggy hell

20. With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
