March Prompts
Just a reminder that all previous lyrical prompts are always available so long as your muse hasn't used them before.
Disc One
01. I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town.
I got the green light,
I got a little fight.
I'm gonna turn this thing around.
[‘Read My Mind’ - The Killers]
02. The world won't turn until something breaks
Who will make the first last mistake?
Good things come to those who wait
But I can't wait
[‘Bruised’ - The Bens]
03. He talks about you in his sleep
There’s nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
[‘Jolene’ - Dolly Parton]
04. We walk together, we're walking down the street
And I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough
Every time I think of you I know we have to meet
And I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough
[‘Can’t Get Enough’ - Depeche Mode]
05. Now don't look at me that way
You know I just can't… take it
And no matter what they say
I know that we will…. Make it
Cause when we are good we are grand
But when we're bad… we are.. very bad (so bad)
But it has to go round
Cause the love that you are giving me is the best
I have ever had
[‘Turn on Billie’ - The Pierces]
06. I don't know where I've been
But I know where I'm going
To that volcano
I don't want to fall in though
Just want to warm my bones
On that fire a while
[‘Volcano’ - Beck]
07. I dream I'm at a crossroads no place left to go,
I look in each direction a'eenie a'meanie a'miny mo
[‘Fun For Me’ - Moloko]
08. Talk to me,
I'm throwing myself in front of you,
This could be the last mistake that I would ever want to do,
All I ever do is give,
It's time you see my point of view
[‘Another Heart Calls’ - All American Rejects]
09. You go in the morning, the morn before light
Warm is the bed and my back where you'd lie
[‘Grand’ - Blue Foundation]
10. And all my friend were vampires
Didn't know they were vampires
Turns out I was a vampire myself
In the Devil Town
[‘Devil Town’ - Daniel Johnston]
Disc Two
11. It's like a later "Tom & Jerry" when the two of them could talk
Like the Stones since the Eighties, like the last days of Southfork.
Like "Planet of the Apes" on TV, the second side of "'Til the Band Comes in"
Like an own-brand box of cornflakes: he's going to let you down my friend.
[‘Bad Cover Version’ - Pulp]
12. Hang on to your hopes, my friend
Thats an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
Look around, the grass is high
The fields are ripe, its the springtime of my life
[‘Hazy Shade of Winter’ - Simon and Gafunkel]
13. Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers
[‘Come Undone’ - Duran Duran]
14. I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growin’ old with you.
I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold.
Need you, feed you, I'll even let you hold the remote control.
[‘Grow Old With You’ - Adam Sandler]
15. I want to be a kid again
Combed down hair and Sunday best
See me staying out bunking school
Knowing wrong from right just rules
[‘Bloodsport’ - Sneaker Pimps]
16. Come with me
Into the trees
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass
Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day.
[‘Stripped’ - Shiny Toy Guns]
17. Music changes but the dance steps don't
When the good die young
[‘Good Die Young’ - Divinyls]
18. No more pictures on the wall
No more memories of holidays
We took when we were
Two years younger than we are
Today
[‘This Room’ - Eskimo Joe]
19. Please speak softly, for they will hear us
And they'll find out why we don't trust them
Speak up dear cause I cannot hear you
I need to know why we don't trust them
[‘Conspiracy’ - Paramore]
20. Why do you keep on running
This love is fading way to fast
All the stars are burning (for you)
But none of them is going to last
So stop chasing the past
[‘Storm’ - Jose Gozalez]
