The following are lyrics from some 80’s songs I love - can you name em?
- and…. there is always something there to remind me
- We’re gonna rock down to, Electric avenue, and then we’ll take it higher.
- heartache to heartache we stand
- Dancing with myself
- I wear my sunglasses at night, so I can, so I can, forget my name while you collect your pay.
- My name is Rio and i’m dancing on the sand……
- gonna take a lot to drag me awaaaaaaaaaaaay from you! There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever dooooooooooooooo!
- once I ran to you…now I run from you
- i ran so far awwwaaaayy
- i was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar.. that much is true..
- Hold me Now … ooohh warm my heart
- she told me to Walk this way
- greeeeeeeeeeeeeen acres is the place to be… farrrrmmmm living is the life for me…
- Welcome to the Jungle… we got fun and games
- round and round - what goes around comes around - I’ll tell you why
- she blinded me with science
- early morning, april 4th, a shot rings out,in the memphis sky. FREE AT LAST! they took your life, they could not, take your pride
- Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
- life is a mystery.. everyone must stand alone
- love in an elevator…living it up when I’m going down…
- your gonna have to face it, your addicted to love
- oh mercy mercy me
- put another dime in the jukebox baby
- This is what you need, I’ll give you what you need
- Here come the woman… With the look in her eye
- Don’t you know when you’re going to shock the monkey
- everybody, have you heard, if youre in the game, then strokes the word
- Well youre the real tough cookie with the long history… Of breaking little hearts, like the one in me
- Won’t you come see about me? I’ll be alone, dancing you know it baby
- Welcome to your life… Theres no turning back
- Theyre watching you watching you watching you watching you
- We’ve got ev’rything going on and on and on
- I’m in the dark, I’d like to read his mind…but I’m frightened of the things I might find
- Where women glow and men plunder?
- Dont drink dont smoke - what do you do?
If you, if you could return
Don’t let it burn, don’t let it fade
I’m sure I’m not being rude
But it’s just your attitude
It’s tearing me apart
It’s ruining everything
And I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong
I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn’t be so confused
And I wouldn’t feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
And I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to. do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
And I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
In the race to get out of this place
I am checking my face in the back of a spoon
You’re accusing me, sir, I’m not here
But I’m here, yes I’m here
I’m not on the moon
I’m leaving so soon
But don’t presume to know shit about me
‘Cause I don’t know myself
From one day to the next
And I don’t pose perplexities purposely
‘Cause it isn’t a game
It isn’t a test, oh no
Hey you, could you give it a rest
Just take me home, c’mon and get me undressed
Put on a fire and make it enough
For we’re geeks but we know this is love
9am to the beat of a drum
As we drive through the canyon
I’m feeling the hum of the engine
My head and my heart are aswim
Will your cat be okay?
Your wife is she in?
Your wife is she in?
‘Cause I don’t presume to know shit about you
When you won’t really tell me
Until I beg you to
But I know perplexity is a wonderful thing
A sudden found joy, the strangeness it brings
Hey you, could you give it a rest
Just take me home, c’mon and get me undressed
Put on a fire and make it enough
For we’re geeks but we know this is love
This is love, yeah
Geeks but we know this is love
I like that we argue, but not everyday
Your scent in a room and the way that you say
Color not colour, what colour today
It’s grey, grey, it’s grey
Oh hey you, could you give it a rest
Just take me home, c’mon and get me undressed
Put on a fire and make it enough
For we’re geeks but we know this is love
This is love
Hey you, could you give it a rest
Just take me home, c’mon and get me undressed
Put on a fire and make it enough
For we’re geeks but we know this is love
This is love, yeah
Geeks but we know this is love
Let’s go to a rave,
And behave like we’re trippin’
Simply ’cause we’re so in love.
Funny hats, shiny pants
All we need for some romance,
Go get dolled-up
And I’ll pick you up.
There’s no line for you and me
‘Cause tonight we’re V.I.P.
(I know somebody at the door).
I see that twinkle in your eye,
You shake that ass and I just die,
Let’s check our coats and move out to the floor.
When I dance with you
Tomorrow doesn’t matter.
Turn that music up
‘Till the windows start to shatter
‘Cause you’re the only one who can get me on my feet.
And I can’t even dance.
Just look at me, Silly Me,
I’m as happy as can be -
I got a girl who thinks I rock.
And tomorrow there’s no school,
So lets go drink some more Red Bull,
And not get home ’till about 6:00.
When I dance with you
Tomorrow doesn’t matter.
Turn that music up
‘Till the windows start to shatter
‘Cause you’re the only one who can get me on my feet.
And I can’t even dance.
Everybody here is staring
At the outfit that you’re wearing
I love it when they check you out.
Cover’s only twenty bucks,
And even if the dj sucks
It’s time to turn this mutha out!
When we’re together
When we’re together
There’s no tomorrow,
There’s no tomorrow
When we’re together
There’s no one in the world
but you and me oh
you and me oh
You and me
I’ve got a friend, he’s a pure-bred killing machine,
He says he’s waited his whole dam life for this,
I knew him well when he was seventeen,
Now he’s a man; he’ll be dead by Christmas.
And so…
Everybody’s going to war,
But we don’t know what we’re fighting for,
Don’t tell me it’s a worthy cause,
No cause could be so worthy.
If love is a drug, then I guess we’re all sober,
If hope is a song then I guess it’s all over,
How to have faith, when faith is a crime?
I don’t want to die…
If God’s on our side, then God is a joker,
Asleep on the job, his children fall over,
Running out through the door and straight to the sky,
I don’t want to die…
For every man who wants to rule the world,
There’ll be a man who just wants to be free,
What do we learn but what should not be learnt?
Too late to find a cure for this disease.
And so…
Everybody’s going to war,
But we don’t know what we’re fighting for,
Don’t tell me it’s a worthy cause,
No cause could be so worthy.
If love is a drug, I guess we’re all sober,
If hope is a song, I guess it’s all over,
How to have faith, when faith is a crime?
I don’t want to die…
If God’s on our side, then God is a joker,
Asleep on the job, his children fall over,
Running out through the door, and straight to the sky,
I don’t want to die…
I-I-I-I don’t want to die,
I-I don’t want to die…
And so…
Everybody’s going to war,
But we don’t know what we’re fighting for,
Don’t tell me it’s a worthy cause,
No cause could be so worthy.
If love is a drug, I guess we’re all sober,
If hope is a song, I guess it’s all over,
How to have faith, when faith is a crime?
I don’t want to die…
If God’s on our side, then God is a joker,
Asleep on the job, his children fall over,
Running out through the door, and straight to the sky,
I don’t want to die…
I-I-I-I don’t want to die,
I-I don’t want to die…
I’ve got a friend, he’s a pure-bred killing machine,
I think he might be dead by Christmas…
