lyrics meme, bis
The lyrics meme is making the rounds again, and as I rather enjoy it (and hope others do to,) I'm in for one more round. Put your mp3 player on random, pick your favorite line from the first 20 songs that come up. Like last time, I'm excluding foreign language selections, 'cause I want y'all to be able to guess.
Green indicates a successful guess.
1. I'd rather walk away than take what belongs to you
2. One spark remains where hope is found / but I’m no stranger to these chains
3. Might like ribbons and curls / But they most like to torture their brothers
4. Last night I felt real arms around me / No hope, no harm, just another false alarm
5. The last time I saw Jesus, I was drinkin’ Bloody Marys in the south
6. I'm lying wide awake in the dark trying to figure out where you are
7. It’s not like years ago, the fear of getting caught / of recklessness and water / they cannot see me naked
8. Bare-naked women keep coming in / and they dance like you wouldn't believe
9. Some other fool across the ocean years ago must have crashed his little airplane
10. I guess you didn't know it but I'm a fiddle player too
11. His plan of action balanced on a check he hoped would come /and substitution of his cigarettes for Wrigleys chewing gum
12. The turns of our steps are untangling me / free from some dragged around memory and the rusty old remnants of fear
13. When the dark night seems endless, please remember me
14. When you were born, they looked at you and said: what a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl
15. And I can feel the way I used to feel / when the world was small and green
16. They're cutting down trees, putting up reindeer / and singing songs of joy and peace
17. We've got two lives, one we're given and the other one we make
18. The dead are not under the earth / They are in the rustling trees
19. This is our moment here at the crossroads of time
20. Spent her lifetime loving, spent her lifetime living fine
