I feel a song coming on
More meme-ish behavior. This one is the latest in the "guess the song from the opening lyrics" type, which I like, so what the hey. I put the collection on shuffle and got the following:
I did skip a few, but not for "embarrassment" reasons. Besides, I gave you guys some really easy ones in here.

Rex, but since he wouldn't accept The Beatles as the answer for "We Can Work It Out" in his lyrics quiz, he gets nailed on this question)
