The lyric game
See: Ideas stolen from Square721BT.
Here's how it goes: I will list 4 lines or so of lyrics from the 10 songs that ended up on the top of my playlist after a randomization; you will guess what song and artist they are from. If you want to do this, these are the only rules: no foreign language songs, no soundtrack-specific songs / musicals, and the lyrics you choose have to be from whatever songs pop up at the top of your largest playlist after a randomization. Also, whatever lyrics you use should (obviously) not include the title of the song...
1. Come Momma, Come Pappa
And sit you down by me
Come sit you, down by me
And pity my case
2. I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine
Whole, world, is his,
His and hers alone
3. You'll be given love
You'll be taken care of
You'll be given love
You have to trust it
4. Heya Tom, it's Bob
From the office down the hall
Good to see you buddy, how's it been?
Things've been ok for me, except that I'm a zombie now
-Jonathan Coulton, "Re: Your Brains"
5. I am too busy to have friends
A lover would just complicate my plans
So I will never look for love again
I’m taking matters into my own hands
-Dresden Dolls, "First Orgasm (in the morning)"
6. You say my story's make-believe
and you won't take my word
You don't rely on solid facts
You just go on what you heard
7. We’re gonna take your cities one by one
cut your cables cut your cords and spoil all your fun
we’re gonna make your life a living hell
cos stripped of your equipment you’ll be forced to face yourself…
8. Salmonella
grows on raw chicken
especially old chicken
Moist foods, like our salad
Jonathan Coulton, "Bacteria"
9. The walls abandon shape
You've got a Cheshire Cat grin
All blurring into one
This place is on a mission
10. And his mother goes to meetings,
While his father pulls the maid,
And she stirs the tea with councilors,
While discussing foreign trade
There you have it. Good luck, have fun, and all that =)
