Name the Song

[DirtRider]

Have not posted in this thread for some time so here we go

There's my daddy on the front porch
With a lazy hound lying by his feet
And my mommie's in the kitchen
With the table all ready set to eat

Here we go then, it always makes me smile

Marmalade - Cousin Norman

OK
this goes back to my schooldays when i used to have the chorus sang at me because of my surname!

She said listen John, I love you
But there's this bloke, I fancy
I don't want to two time you,
so it's the end for you and me

[DirtRider]

I hope so as I would love to now know lol

 

[johnwillyums]

Too right. Story of my life.....

 

[johnwillyums]

what's the name boohbah got to do with this song?

Here's one:

You tell me all you’ve done and seen
And all the places you have been without me
Well I don’t really want to know
But I’ll stay quiet and then I’ll go
And you won’t have no cause to think about me

 

[johnwillyums]

Well, I'm surprised nobody got this. The late, great, Kirsty McColl with "There's a Guy Works Down the Chipshop Swears He's Elvis"

 

[DirtRider]

Ok how about this one

Now that you have learnt,
To play this game with me,
You can see its not so hard to do,
Lets try it once again,
This time more carefully,

And this one

Something somebody stole
I don't know why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is I've been looking for

Think the first one is Simon Says by the something to do with sweets or gum or something. It's bubblegum music. Haven't time to find it now. Gotta go to work

Is it "Middle of the night" by Billy Joel ?

 

[johnwillyums]

I reckon you got that one Pebbly

How about this:

We used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didn't we run away and hope
That time wouldn't try to find us (didn't we run)
Didn't we take each other
To a place where no one's ever been?

 

[johnwillyums]

I picked a part of the last verse because I thought this would be an easy one.
From what I've just been reading on another part of the forum it seems more poignant than ever.

 

[johnwillyums]

Ok. How about this. A bizarre classic. American band. This decade.

Going back to the school tomorrow
Hang my hairy head in sorrow
Ain't no way for a boy to be
Ain't no way to set me free now

 

[Anak]

Ma won't shave me
Jesus can't save me
Dog faced boy

"People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away,
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me,
When I tell that I'm doing Fine watching shadows on the wall,
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?"
