Today is that awful, dreadful, horrible day known as VD! You know what LB thinks about this lame excuse to sell Hallmark cards, decapitated flowers and fattening chocolates... and I've reflected that in this LSWE game that explores the shitty side of love! Fuck Valentine's Day! Yeah, I said go fuck yourself on a jagged arrow, Stupid Cupid! To hell with Valentines I'm not good enough for... I should treat myself on this crappy occasion! I wonder if they have any specials on Kleenex down at Mecca....

1. And do you think that we've grown up differently?
Don't seem the same, seems you've lost your feel for me

2. She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night - it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head and cries

3. Playin' my records, keep dancin' all night
Leave me alone for a while
'Till Johnny's dancin' with me
I've got no reason to smile

4. So baby, what's the story?
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade away

5. It don't stack up so slack up
And pack up I just don't care

6. Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around

7. Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you

8. You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A schoolboy's dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

9. Then I say "I love you"
And foul the situation
Hey girl I thought we were
The right combination

10. I broke the spell that you kept me under
I'd had enough of the rain and thunder
I lost track of the time and I wonder why

11. Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
But a year to make love she wanted you to wait
Let me tell ya a story of my situation
I was talkin' to this girl from the U.S. nation

12. And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry

Today is that awful, dreadful, horrible day known as VD! You know what LB thinks about this lame excuse to sell Hallmark cards, decapitated flowers and fattening chocolates... and I've reflected that in this LSWE game that explores the shitty side of love! Fuck Valentine's Day! Yeah, I said go fuck yourself on a jagged arrow, Stupid Cupid! To hell with Valentines I'm not good enough for... I should treat myself on this crappy occasion! I wonder if they have any specials on Kleenex down at Mecca....

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. And do you think that we've grown up differently?
Don't seem the same, seems you've lost your feel for me

We Just Disagree - Dave Mason (I have mentioned before that BitD, there were rumors around our high school that DM had swept Nicole Brown (pre-Simpson) and her sister Denise off to some tropical island for a weekend.)


2. She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night - it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head and cries

Lyin' Eyes - Eagles


3. Playin' my records, keep dancin' all night
Leave me alone for a while
'Till Johnny's dancin' with me
I've got no reason to smile

It's My Party - Lesley Gore


4. So baby, what's the story?
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade away

5. It don't stack up so slack up
And pack up I just don't care

6. Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around

Take It on the Run - REO Speedwagon


7. Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you

Don't You Want Me - The Human League


8. You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A schoolboy's dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

You Give Love a Bad Name - Bon Jovi


9. Then I say "I love you"
And foul the situation
Hey girl I thought we were
The right combination

Poison Arrow - ABC (I have also mentioned before that "The Lexicon of Love" was one of the first CDs in my collection, along with "The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle" - Nov 1984.)


10. I broke the spell that you kept me under
I'd had enough of the rain and thunder
I lost track of the time and I wonder why

11. Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
But a year to make love she wanted you to wait
Let me tell ya a story of my situation
I was talkin' to this girl from the U.S. nation

Broken English - Rhymin' Broderick


12. And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry

Love Stinks - J. Geils Band


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that serves as an anti-Valentine

Image Bonus: Show me something that gives the finger to Valentine's Day. - Frank hasn't won an IBB since the first week of the LSWE... but the preying praying mantises got him a much deserved second five points. There wasn't much hope for anyone after I saw that brilliant romance killer...

Yes, something was wrong. Remember how my keyboard was wonky on my last post? Shortly after that the whole damned thing stopped working. Touch screens are torturous due to the dead spots on my fingertips, so typing on my ipad or phone was out.

Now I have to figure out all my passwords, etc. on the new laptop. I also have to get all of my blog stuff off the old one, so that is delayed as well...

Aaaargh on missing out on Biz and J Geils, but I still want prescient points for Take it on the Run....
