Dead Ringer for Love - Meatloaf (and Cher)


Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails
Cross the sea of years
With no provision but an open face
Along the straits of fear
Oh, when I want, when I'm on my way, yeah
And my feet wear my fickle way to stay

 

[Sir_Loin_of_Beef]

I believe that is Kasmir by Led Zeppelin. I didn't pay mush attention to Zeppelin except I knew that if Stairway to Heaven was playing on the radio, it meant that the disc jockey was probably in the bathroom.

"Young, black and famous, with money hangin' out the anus"

All I could think of when I heard this was that Superbowl commercial about having money coming out the wazoo.

 

[Badjak]

I'm terrible at this game, but I like it

 

[Sir_Loin_of_Beef]

That's either I Hate This Game I'm Wondering Why I Play It by Asher of Babylon or That's The Way (uh huh uh huh) I Like It (uh huh uh huh) by KC and the Sunshine Band

My turn:​

We'll lay back and observe the constellations, and watch the moon shinin' bright. I'll play the radio on southern stations, cuz southeren bells are hell at night.

Moonlight Feels Right - Starbuck

Here's another:

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets
For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection, and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water

Perhaps not so easy!

 

[Kathleen]

Nope, I am not getting that one without Google help.

 

[dr morbius]

Nope, I am not getting that one without Google help.

I will take pity; it is a hard one. I offer the next two lines of the song:

Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream
Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream

 

[Kathleen]

Okay.....I think it is Pink Floyd, but there is no way that I will guess the song or even which album.

 

[dr morbius]

I'll give it to you. It's Sheep, from Animals. A little creepy, I will grant.

Your turn.

 

[Kathleen]

I'll give it to you. It's Sheep, from Animals. A little creepy, I will grant.

Your turn.

I made this half-pony, half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
What's with all the screaming?
You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony
Making a gift for you?

 

[dr morbius]

You have thoroughly stumped me. Haven't a clue. Pretty sure I've never heard this one.

 

[Kathleen]

Today, after reading the movie thread, I figured out that you might have not heard it when you said you were not a gamer! It's one of my favorite songs: Skullcrusher Mountain by Jonathan Coulton. I've heard it on pop stations from time to time and also on alternative stations. An evil genius falls in love. Ah, romance.

You pick one.

 

[dr morbius]

Very well. It will be an easy one, however.

Heh-heh.



I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me
Galileo Galileo Galileo Galileo
Galileo Figaro, Magnifico

I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah!
No, we will not let you go (let him go)
Bismillah!
We will not let you go (let him go)
Bismillah!
We will not let you go (let me go)
Will not let you go (let me go)
Never, never, never, never let me go
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Oh, mamma mia, mamma mia
Mamma mia, let me go

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me!

Bohemian Rhapsody by Mike Myers, Dana Carvey and Friends

It's just another Sunday in a tired old street. Police have got the choke hold, oh, then we just lost the beat.
Who counts the money underneath the bar? Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars?

 

[Kathleen]

We Built This City - Jefferson Starship

You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "Please, adore me"
And when I looked the moon had turned to gold, oh, oh, oh

 

[Sir_Loin_of_Beef]

Blue Moon, and not the Marcels version that starts out, "Baw, baw ba baw, ba baw ba baw ba baw, rangy dang dang dingy dong ding." Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra both do a good job of it and so does Rod Stewart.

I'm never gettin' married. Never gettin' married. You know that's not my scene. But a girl like you, needs to be married. I've known all along you couldn't
Live forever in between

The Worst That Could Happen - Brooklyn Bridge

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, yeah

 

[Roll_Bones]

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid
As a moment regained and regarded both the same
Emotion revealed as the ocean maid
A clearer future, morning, evening, nights with you

 

[LPBeier]

And You and I - Yes

She's a rich girl
She don't try to hide it...
...He's a poor boy
Empty as a pocket
Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose

 

[Kathleen]

Diamonds on the Sole's of her Shoes - Paul Simon

o/` The greatest thing you'll ever learn is to love and be loved in return.
