Lyrically Speaking - 1/30/24

[littlebeast13]

The second edition of Tuesday Hidden Wordplay shouldn't be much more difficult than the first game. Each of these twelve songs has a word somewhere in its lyrics (but not in the title) in common, and I think it'll only take a few songs to clue you onto it...

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist, 3 points for the key word...


1. Inside him, there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking, she's so close now
This girl is half his age

2. Haggerties and Swamies
Pacific Palisades
San Onofre and Sunset
Redondo Beach LA

3. Fe-fe, fi-fi, fo-fo, fum
I smell smoke in the auditorium

4. Tryin' your best to bring the
Water to your eyes
Thinkin' it might stop her
From whoopin' your behind

5. People moving out, people moving in
Why, because of the color of their skin

6. Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair

7. Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don't want no candy, I don't need no toy

8. We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control

9. Joan was quizzical, studied pataphysical
Science in the home

10. So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong, you're not that strong
Let me go

11. My buddy Brandon holds a record
For single season touchdown throws
And good old Johnny, he's the life of every party
It's like Cheers, they know him everywhere he goes

12. Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and
Bits and pieces and
