The songlist meme: take your entire music library, put it on shuffle, record your favourite lines from the first twenty five, see who can guess them without cheating and using google, strike them out once they've been guessed.
I'm gonna go a bit further and add a verse (or a part of a long one) if/when possible and if the whole verse is better than the single line.
1. "You make me feel a little older
Like a full grown woman might
But when you're gone I grow colder
Come to me again"
2. "Spector will lurk
Radar has gathered
Midnight neuces from boxcar cadavears
Exoskeletal junction at the railroad delayed"
3. "Ei jumalauta näillä kaduilla pilkata ulkomaisia tuotteita
Ei perusteta urheiluseuroja
Ei kertakaikkiaan tehdä mitään
Mitä Keskustapuolue haluaa"
(Ultra Bra: Suosi ulkomaista)
4. "She saw my comb over, her hourglass body
She has problems with drinking milk and being school tardy
She'll loan you her toothbrush
She'll bartend your party"
5. "Pikkutyttö enkelinkasvoinen
Oikeasti nainen pahansydäminen
Juotti mut känniin ja hengilta nai
Seuraavana aamuna lemput jo sain"
6. "Nothing is wasted
Only reproduced
Get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schön
But we haven't been introduced"
(Blur: Girls & Boys)
7. Everybody askas your name
They say we're all the same
And it's 'Nice one, geezer'
But that's as far as the conversation went"
8. "Doctor oh doctor I'm willing to learn
Why all of my bones, well, they toss and they turn
Mother oh mother I'm begging you please
To rid me of madness and cure this disease"
9. "When I'm down and my hands are tied
I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line
From this pain I just can't disguise
It's gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye"
10. "And then up comes Zafo
I'm like 'Yo, Zafo, what's up?'
He's like 'Nothin''
I'm like 'That's cool'"
(Liam Lynch: United States of Whatever)
11. "Hey you, what do you see
Something beautiful, something free?
Hey you, are you trying to be mean?
If you live with apes, man it's hard to be clean"
12. "Big black boots
Long brown hair
She's so sweet
With that 'Get back'-stare"
13. "Ich heisse superfantastische
Ich trinke champers mit lachsfisch"
(Franz Ferdinand: Darts of Pleasure)
14. "But if you're gonna dine with them cannibals
Sooner or later, darling, you're gonna get eaten
But I'm glad you've come around with your animals
And your heart is bruised but unbeaten
Beating like a drum"
15. "What of all the things that you taught me
What of all the things that you'd say
What of all your prophetic preaching
You're just throwing it all away"
16. "Io sono fuori di testa?
Si sono fuori di testa!
Hai mica visto volare il mio teschio, Signore?
Perché ho preso la testa"
17. "Sun goes up and sun goes down
I dig love and just having you around"
18. "In you I see dirty
In you I count stars
In you I feel so pretty
In you I taste god"
19. "Everybody's doing
What they shouldn't be doing
Everybody's doing it
In the middle of the street"
20. "The kids are digging up a brand new hole
Where to put the deadbeat man
Grandpas' happy watching video porn
With the close-caption on"
21. "Hännästä pitää tytön leveä olla
Ja uuman kohdalta pieni
Sellaisen pitää tytön olla
Ett' seitsemän tekee mieli"
22. "Valoviikatteet taloja niittää
Käsi hamuaa lautturin viittaa
En osaa elämää syyttää, en kiittää
Se jääköön, en piittaa"
23. "John was a scientist
He was hooked on LSD
Interested in mind control
And how the monkeys held the keys"
24. "Haluutko olla seuraava
Joka tän sydämen särkee?
Herättää minut unesta
Uuteen painajaiseen
Naispääosan paikka on vapaana"
25. "And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
When the flames rose to her roman nose
And her walkman started to melt"
