Step 1: Pick your favorite lines from 25 50 (25 was just too small for me) of your favorite songs.
Step 2: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
Step 3: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.

1. Did you write the book of love / But the jester on the sidelines didn't cast / The jester stole his throny crown.

2. Spitting out peices of his broken luck / Feeling alone, the armies of the road, salvation a la mode / Do you remember December's foggy freeze?

3. Don't write naughty words on walls if you can't spell / Unless you get a good percentage of her price / And you come across a girlscout who is similarly inclined

4. But my dreams aren't as empty as my consience seems to be / Before I use it and lose my cool / Tell me some bad news before I laugh and act like a fool 'Behind Blue Eyes'-The Who

5. Pulled my trigger, now he's dead / If I don't come again this time tommorrow, carry on, carry on / Beezlebub has a devil set aside for me 'Bohemian Rhapsody'-Queen

6. You know the day destroys the night / Night divides the day / Try to run, try to hide 'Break on Through (to the Other Side)'-The Doors

7. Hoping it's going to come true, but there's not a lot I can do / I'm a winner, I'm a sinner, do you want my autograph / Don't you look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I got

8. At the CYO when they learn to blow / All the way, that's the way they go. Everyday, and none of their mamas ever seem to know / With a tongue like a cow, she could make you go wow!

9. Child arrived, just the other day / You know we'll have a good time then / What I'd really like dad is to borrow the car keys, see ya later, can I have them please.

10. I says "Pig-Pen, this here's a Rubber Duck, and I'm about to put the hammer down." / Those smokies as thick as bugs on a bumper, they even had a bear in the air / So we crashed the gate, doin' 98

11. Mental wounds not healing, driving me insane / The media sells it, and you have the role / I know that things are goin' wrong for me, you've got to listen to my words

12. I read the news today, oh boy, about a lucky man who made the grade / Went upstairs and had a smoke and somebody smoke and I fell into a dream / Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall 'A Day in the Life'-The Beatles

13. All our times have come, here but now they're gone / Are together in eternity...Romeo and Juliet / Came a last night of saddness, and it was clear she couldn't go on

14. Nobody knows it / When I was down, I was your clown / And nobody told us

15. Gonna take that big white bird / Gonna fly right out of here / Without a single word

16. Singer in a smokey room, smell of wine and cheap perfume / Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time / Some'll win, and some'll lose, some are born to sing the blues.

17. Every night they're driving me insane / Those men inside my brain / They persecute me, they're the judge and jury all in one

18. Aluminum, Selenium / There's Yttrium, Ytterbium / And Chromium and Curium

19. You've just got to see me through another day / Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun / Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

20. We Starve-look at one another short of breath / Facing a dying nation of moving papaer fantasy / Answer from Timothy Leary deary

21. They can see that he’s just a fool / The man of a thousand voices talking percetly loud / And he never shows his feelings 'Fool on the Hill'-The Beatles

22. It ain’t me, it ain’t me, I ain’t no senator’s son, son / Some folks are born silver spoon in hand, Lord, don’t they help themselves, oh. / Some folks inherit star spangled eyes, Ooh, they send you down to war, lord,

23. We dance on the strings of powers we cannot perceive / You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice / There are those who think that they’ve been dealt a losing hand

24. Comin' out of Woody's Christmas Day / I never knew that she could drive that way / He didn't have enough to pay the bar tab

25. I'm a rolling thunder, a pouring rain / You're only young but you're gonna die / 'Cause if good's on the left, then I'm stickin' to the right

26. Don't need reason, don't need rhyme / No stop signs, speed limit, nobody's gonna slow me down / I'm on my way to the promised land

27. This could be heaven or this could be hell / Some dance to remember / Some dance to forget

28. A fortress deep and mighty / I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain / I touch no one and no one touches me 'I am a Rock'-Simon and Garfunkel

29. Just an alley creeper light on his feet / Gotta find me a future move out of my way / It ain’t much I’m asking if you want the truth

30. I’d buy you john merrick’s remains (all them crazy elephant bones) / I’d buy you a green dress (but not a real green dress, that’s cruel) / I’d be rich.

31. And you’re the only other person to know, don’t tell me / A thousand miles can lead so many ways / I’m just a wandering on the face of this earth

32. You're usin' all the tricks you used on me / You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose / But you won't find my name in your book of Who's Who's.

33. I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been / And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land / My shangri-la beneath the summer moon, I will return again 'Kashmir'-Led Zeppelin

34. I used to be lonely, 'til I learned about livin' alone / And I'm gettin' to know myself a little bit better / And sometimes I think I was a little bit crazy

35. You know it's just your foolish pride / Like a fool, I fell in love with you / Please don't say we'll never find a way 'Layla'-Derek and the Dominoes

36. Every time I turn it I burn it up and burn it out / Their the ones who make the rules, it's not a game it's just a rout / It's always breakin' in half.

37. Runs the all-time loser / He’s crawling down the corridor / He hears the silence howling

38. When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful / But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible / Now watch what you say or they’ll be calling you a radical

39. I hope I die before I get old / And don’t try to dig what we all s-s-say / People try to put us d-down 'My Generation'-The Who

40. Letters I've written, never meaning to send / Gazing at people, some hand in hand / Just what the truth is, I can’t say anymore

41. I have to turn my head until my darkness goes / Maybe then I’ll fade away and not have to face the facts / No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue

42. Dashing through the snow / To get some Christmas cheer / And I wonder what's the joke

43. Left it’s seeds while I was sleeping / People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening / And no one dared

44. Growing up it all seems so one-sided / Opinions all provided / The future pre-decided

45. With a word she can get what she came for / Because you know sometimes words have two meanings / There's still time to change the road you're on 'Stairway to Heaven'-Led Zeppelin

46. There is unrest in the forest / As the maples scream `oppression!`, And the oaks just shake their heads / And the trees are all kept equal

47. Someone used to love it, so you know it hasn't been abused / She never let me touch it, so you know it ain't been beat / To see her on the organ, was such a happy sight

48. People are strange when you’re a stranger / Women seem wicked when you’re unwanted / No one remembers your name

49. I’ve been runnin’ down this dusty road / Don’t think I’m ever gonna make it home again / The mornin’ sun is risin’, it's kissin' the day

50. So, so you think you can tell, heaven from hell / And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? / and did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? 'Wish You Were Here'-Pink Floyd

I'm gonna have to do this again with 50 more songs, because I know I left some off.
