Step 1. Put your playlist on random.
Step 2. Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing. (You can skip songs that are instrumental.)
Step 3. Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly
1. We like explosions that leave you feeling good
2. Theives in the night stick you in the alleyway
3. I'm up on the 11th floor and I'm watching the cruisers below
4. Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
5. Hush-a-bye, don't you cry, go sleep you little lambie
6. Interplanetary adversaries battling for supremacy
7. Our time is done, my love, we've laid it all to waste
8. Hit me in the face
9. This is not the first time you tried to get away
10. The wintergreen, the juniper, the cornflower and the chicory
11. I believe the unthinkable can come true
12. Photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at 66
13. My heart is bleeding raindrops
14. Have mercy on me, sir, allow me to impose on you
15. Feel the fire, feel my love inside you so bright
16. I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness
17. I need a gun to keep myself from harm
18. You talk of sweeties, bashful sweeties
19. Every now and then I get a little lonely and you're never coming 'round
20. Andy would bicycle across town in the rain to bring you candy
21. Mouth of beast, ravening
22. Another river of blood, another dreary field with the bodies of the slain
23. And I drown a little more every day.
24. Up those stone steps I climb
25. Half-past twelve and I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
Naturally, this list is particularly heavy on one particular artist (who???). I haven't gotten a single lyric from anyone else's list. In fact, I wouldn't even be able to get most of these, and I've heard every one of these songs a million times. I usually consider myself fairly good with lyrics; I suppose as usual I have overestimated my own abilities.
