Lyrically Speaking - 2/5/19

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Tue Feb 05, 2019 8:01 am

Here's another Tuesday Wordplay game for you. You know how they work. Have fun! I have stuff to do...

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


1. I stretched back and I hiccupped
Looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the tin pan
God there's got to be another way

2. When she kissed me I was born and she said goodbye
And I knew right away I was born to cry
Now I'm happy and the joke's on her

3. Can't you see that it's late at night?
I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right.

4. If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out

5. You found a new world and you want to taste it
But that world can turn cold and you better face it

6. Get back off me, beast off me
Get back you flea infested mongrel

7. Sly in Vietnam took a bullet in the head
Bobby OD'ed on Drano on the night that he was wed
They were two more friends of mine

8. I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side
And it's made out of rattlesnake hide

9. Guess you believed the world
Played by your rules
Here stands an experienced girl
Nobody's fool...

10. When tears are in your eyes,
And you can't find the way.
It's hard to make believe,
You're happy when you're gray

11. We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them
The cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue
Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their homes

12. Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long, long time ago


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that contains the magic word of the day in the title.

Image Bonus: If you know the word, show me a fitting image.

Starfish: So you go ahead and tell me their names.

Renovator: Now let's see. We have three bands on the main stage tonight - The Who's on first, The Band's on second, Guess Who's on third.

Starfish: That's what I wanna find out.

Renovator: I say The Who's on first, The Band's on second, Guess Who's on third.

Starfish: You know these band's names?

Renovator: Certainly!

Starfish: Well then who's on first?

Renovator: Absolutely.

Starfish: Who signs the contract?

Renovator: Well, naturally!

Starfish: When you pay off the first band after the show, who gets the money?

Renovator: Every dollar. Why not? They are entitled to it.

Starfish: Who is?

Renovator: Yes. Sometimes their manager comes down and collects it.

Starfish: Who's manager?

Renovator: Yes.

Starfish: All I'm tryin' to find out is what's the band's name on stage first.

Renovator: Oh, no - wait a minute, don't switch 'em around. The Band is on second.

Starfish: I'm not askin' you who's on second.

Renovator: The Who is on first.

Starfish: I can't even guess who.

Renovator: They are on third - now we're not talkin' 'bout them.

Starfish: Now, how did I get on the third band?

Renovator: You mentioned their name!

Starfish: If I mentioned the third band's name, who did I say is playing third?

Renovator: No - The Who's playing first.

Starfish: Never mind first - I wanna know what's the band's name on third.

Renovator: No - The Band's on second.

Starfish: I'm not askin' you who's on second.

Renovator: The Who's on first.

Starfish: I can't even guess who.

Renovator: They are on third.

Starfish: Aaah! Would you please stay on the third band and don't go off of them?

Renovator: What was it you wanted?

Starfish: What's the band's name on third?

Renovator: The Band's on second.

Starfish: I'm not askin' you who's on second.

Renovator: The Who's on first.

Starfish: I can't even guess who.

Renovator & Starfish: THIRD BAND!

Starfish: You got a band playing later on stage 2?

Renovator: No Doubt!

Starfish: I don't doubt it, I just thought I'd ask you.

Renovator: Well, I just thought I'd tell you. No Doubt.

Starfish: Alright, then tell me who's playing later on stage 2.

Renovator: The Who is playing fir-

Starfish: STAY OFF THE MAIN STAGE. I wanna know what's the band that is playing later on stage 2.

Renovator: The Band's on second - Main stage.

Starfish: I'm not askin' you who's on second.

Renovator: The Who's on first.

Starfish: I can't even guess who.

Renovator & Starfish: THIRD BAND!

Starfish: Look, you say you got a third band coming up after the first two, right?

Renovator: We promised you three bands on the Main Stage and they'll all be there.

Starfish: The third band's name?

Renovator: Guess Who.

Starfish: I don't wanna guess, I want you to tell me now?

Renovator: I'm tellin' you now.

Starfish: Then go ahead.

Renovator: Guess Who.

Starfish: I don't wanna guess, I want you to tell me who's the third band?

Renovator: Now listen. The Who is not the third band. The Who is on fir-

Starfish: I'll break your arm if you say Who's on first. I wanna know what's the band's name playing third.

Renovator: The Band's on second.

Starfish: I'm not askin' you who's on second.

Renovator: The Who's on first.

Starfish: I can't even guess who.

Renovator & Starfish: THIRD BAND!

Starfish: Well, I'm a big fan of rock music.

Renovator: I know that.

Starfish: Now suppose that I finish watching the concert and I want to meet the musicians.

Renovator: Yes.

Starfish: I go back stage and wait for who to show up?

Renovator: Now that's the first thing you've said right.

Starfish: I don't even know what I'm talkin' about!

Renovator: Well, that's all you have to do.

Starfish: Is wait for who.

Renovator: Yes.

Starfish: And I'll get to meet who?

Renovator: Naturally!

Starfish: Who will meet me?

Renovator: Naturally.

Starfish: Who?

Renovator: Naturally!

Starfish: Naturally.

Renovator: Yes.

Starfish: So I come back stage and I meet Naturally.

Renovator: NO, NO, NO! You come back stage and meet The Who?

Starfish: Naturally.

Renovator: That's right. There we go.

Starfish: So I come back stage and meet Naturally.

Renovator: You don't!

Starfish: I meet who?

Renovator: Naturally.

Starfish: THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING!

Renovator: You're not saying it that way.

Starfish: I said I get to meet Naturally.

Renovator: You don't - you get to meet The Who?

Starfish: Naturally!

Renovator: Well, say that!

Starfish: THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! I get to meet who?

Renovator: Naturally.

Starfish: Ask me.

Renovator: You get to meet The Who?

Starfish: Naturally.

Renovator: That's it.

Starfish: SAME AS YOU!! I go back stage and meet who?

Renovator: Naturally!

Starfish: Who is there?

Renovator: Naturally!

Starfish: THEY BETTER BE THERE! If wait around a little longer I'll get to meet the band and if I stick around until after the third show, guess who's going to show up.

Renovator: Yes.

Starfish: I bring a friend along. I tell him he can come and meet the band. Who? I can't even guess who. Third band! And frankly I think this is garbage.

Renovator: What was that?

Starfish: I said I think this is garbage.

Renovator: Oh, that's next week's concert.

Lovers Who Wander - Dion DiMucci

My favourite Dion song! An unusual choice, but the heart wants what the heart wants....

3. Can't you see that it's late at night?
I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right.

4. If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out

Who Knew - Pink

I've been hearing this a lot on the radio lately on the (80s-today) station I listen to when I'm driving. They must put songs in and out of rotation even when it's the "oldies".

5. You found a new world and you want to taste it
But that world can turn cold and you better face it

Who Will You Run To - Heart

More prescient points for me!!!1

6. Get back off me, beast off me
Get back you flea infested mongrel

Who Let the Dogs Out - Baja Men

I didn't know there were actual lyrics other than the title line, but if it fits, one must sits...

7. Sly in Vietnam took a bullet in the head
Bobby OD'ed on Drano on the night that he was wed
They were two more friends of mine

People Who Died - Jim Carroll

I just heard this for the first time in a long time the other day on youtube in a "sad story behind the song" video. And I originally put down Pete, until I realized who Pete Carroll was a different sad story....ha!

8. I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side
And it's made out of rattlesnake hide

Who Do You Love - George Thorogood

Lonesome George was another one that got heavy airplay during the midnight runs to Vegas

9. Guess you believed the world
Played by your rules
Here stands an experienced girl
Nobody's fool...

10. When tears are in your eyes,
And you can't find the way.
It's hard to make believe,
You're happy when you're gray

Who Loves You Pretty Baby - Frankie Valli

11. We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them
The cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue
Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their homes

Who Will Save Your Soul - Jewel

12. Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long, long time ago

The Man Who Sold the World - David Bowie


Kroxquo Bonus: Name another song with artist that contains the magic word of the day in the title.

Who Wants to Live Forever - Queen

Next thing, you'll tell me that you've never seen Pulp Fiction. Correct that oversight immediately (if not sooner, dadism!)!!

Me and Wiki are not playing today in protest to the mean and hateful lyrics that are quoted in song #6, and because we don't know any of the answers.

We love all of you anyway.

Never put off LS till late at night. I missed one of the songs but then used it as my Krox, and I totally forgot a much better Krox, Sinatra’s “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” SMH. I was a lot more prompt today.

Good grief, LB! YOU are not familiar with the song? How is anybody else supposed to get it?

I think everybody should get two bonus points for today. and I should get four bonus points for calling you on it.

Good grief yourself! When did I become the world's foremost expert on music? I'll bet TBone and Earl and Esto know thousands more songs than I know, or that you know. In fact, I'm beginning to wonder if you know any songs at all....
