<p>I always wondered what the things were that a woman wasn’t supposed to see.</p>
<p>You guys missed Revolution 9 by the Beatles:

<p>Lyrics:
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number…
…Then there’s this Welsh Rarebit wearing some brown underpants
…About the stortage of grain in Hertfordshire
Everyone of them knew that as time went by they’d
Get a little bit older and a little bit slower but…
It’s all the same thing, in this case manufactured by
Someone who’s always umpteen (…)
Your father’s giving it diddly-i-dee district was leaving…
Intended to die (…) Ottoman…
(…)…Long gone through…(…)
I’ve got to say irritably and…
(…) Floors, hard enough to put on (…) Per day’s md in our district
There was not really enough light to get down,
And ultimately (…) Slumped down
Suddenly…
They may stop the funding…
Place your bets
The original
Afraid she’ll die (…)
Great colours for the season
Number nine, number nine
Who’s to know?
Who was to know?
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
I sustained nothing worse than (…)
Also, for example
Whatever you’re doing
A business deal falls through
I informed him on the third night, when fortune gives…
Be alright, be alright
Right, right, right, right
Right
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Ri-i-i-i-ight
Ri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ight
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
(…) I’ve missed all of that
It makes me a few day’s late
Compared with, like, wow!
And wierd stuff like that…
(…) Taking our sides sometimes
(…) Floral bark
Rouge doctors have brought this specimen
I have nobody’s short-cuts, aha…
Nine, number nine
(…) With the situation
They are standing still
The plan, the telegram…
(Hubbbbba, hubbbbba, hubbbbbba, hubbbbba, hubbbbba
Number nine, number Hubbba)
A man without terrors from beard to false
As the headmaster reported to my son
He really can try, as they do, to find function…
Tell what he was saying, and his voice was low and his hive high,
And his eyes were low…
Alright!
It was on fire and his glasses were the same
This thing know if it was tinted,
But you know it isn’t
To me it is…
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine, number nine
So the wife called me and we’d better go to see a surgeon
to price it (…) Yellow underclothes
So, any road, we went to see a dentist instead
That gave her a pair of teeth which wasn’t any good at all
So I said I’d marry, join the ****ing navy and went to sea
Block that kick, block that kick
In my broken chair, my wings are broken and so is my hair
I’m not in the mood for whirling
How?
Dogs for dogging, hands for clapping
Bird’s for birding, and fish for fishing
Them for themming and when for whemming
…Only to find the night-watchman
Unaware of his presence in the building
Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine
Number nine, number nine
Industry allows financial imbalance
Thrusting it bewteen his shoulder blades
The watusi, the twist
Eldorado
Take this, brother, may it serve you well
Maybe it’s nothing
What, what oh…
Maybe, even then, impervious in London
…Could be difficult thing…
It’s quick like rush for peace because it’s so much
Like being naked
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright
It’s alright
If, you’ve become naked
Block that kick, block that kick, block that kick, block that kick
Block that kick, block that kick, block that kick, block that kick
Block that kick, block that kick, block that kick, block that kick
Block that kick, block that kick, block that kick, block that nixon</p>
<p>BC–ah, but you missed the part where if you play it backward, which for some bizarre reason we were allowed to during lunchtime when I was in sixth grade, it says “turn me on, dead man.”</p>
<p>I always laugh when I hear these Killers lyrics from Somebody Told Me. </p>
<p>Well Somebody Told Me
You Had A Boyfriend
Who Looked Like A Girlfriend
That I Had In February Of Last Year…</p>
<p>I threaten my Ds that when they are MY age, this will be a song that will be played when people talk about the good old days!</p>
<p>Hey, downtoearth, I had “I’ve Never Been to Me” way back on post #126!</p>
<p>sorry missed it didnt mean to steal your thunder</p>
<p>No, no, that not what I meant! It’s just that I’m not the only one who remembers really really bad songs from the 80s…that was the 80s, yes?</p>
<p>+
</p>
<p>…</p>
<p>I still have that record (45 rpm) ^^ :eek:</p>
<p>“the bird is the word”</p>
<p>I never heard of that song until Peter drove everyone crazy singing it non-stop in a “Family Guy” episode. Until now, I assumed it originated there. I mean, no real songwriter could write something so silly!</p>
<p>i just downloaded I want to fly like superman by the kinks brought back memories. of what I will not say. My h still likes his devo Whip it Whip it good. !!!
pageturner I cant remember could be the 70’s It was by Charlene good old google will tell me.</p>
<p>the Charlene song was originally one in the late 70;s and revised to include the little lecture she give in the early 80’a It was quite a hit.
That surfin bird one is one I i would say I could write myself and I have NO musical talent.</p>
<p>Well, in the spirit of holidays past, from that blockbuster song by bandaide:</p>
<p>“And the Christmas bells that ring
they are the clanging
chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it’s them instead of you”</p>
<p>Actually, if you listen to the lyrics, the whole song’s a gem.</p>
<p>Can’t find the lyrics on-line but what about Boogie from John Hartford’s Aereo-Plain album?</p>
<p>“Hey babe you want to boogie? Boogie, Boogie, Boogie with me.”</p>
<p>I want a gal
Just like the gal
That married dear old Dad.</p>
<p>Thank you Oedipus</p>

<p>Elton John: “Don’t let the son go down on me.”</p>
<p>“Disco, disco duck…”</p>
<p>Revised for additional categories:</p>
<p>1) Songs with phrases written with silly grammar/word structure (Happy Together, Ebony and Ivory, I am I said, Jessie’s Girl)</p>
<p>2) Songs that make no sense (Mairsie Doats, MacArthur Park)</p>
<p>3) Songs where the composer was clearly using recreational drugs (I am the Walrus, In-a- Gadda-Da-Vida)</p>
<p>4) Ridiculous story songs (Boy Named Sue, Rocky I’ve never been in love before, Run Joey Run, Pina Colada Song)</p>
<p>5) Songs where the composer had an inside joke (Happy Together, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds)</p>
<p>6) Just plain creepy songs (Every Breath You Take, etc)</p>
<p>7) Songs where no one knows the real words (Louie Louie) </p>
<p>8) Pretentious songs (I’ve Never Been to Me)</p>
<p>9) Songs with truly disgusting lyrics (My Humps, Milkshake, Hit me Baby one more time etc.) </p>
<p>10) Odd songs about animals (Bird is the Word, Dominic the Donkey, Muskrat Love, I am the Walrus, Disco Duck)</p>
<p>What’s the inside joke in Happy Together?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I love that song! I also love their other song, Mr. Brightside </p>
<p>“Now I�m falling asleep
And she�s calling a cab
While he�s having a smoke
And she�s taking a drag
Now they�re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it�s all in my head
But she�s touching his …
Chest … Now,
He takes off her dress
Now, let me go”</p>
<p>I know, I know, it’s immature, but I like how they substitute chest for what you know the guy was really worried about.</p>
<p>Not necessarily stupid from my point of view but others may disagree</p>
<p>China Cat Sunflower (Garcia/Hunter)</p>
<p>Look for awhile at the China Cat Sunflower
proud-walking jingle in the midnight sun
Copper-dome Bodhi drip a silver kimono
like a crazy-quilt stargown
through a dream night wind</p>
<p>Krazy Kat peeking through a lace bandana
like a one-eyed Cheshire
like a diamond-eye Jack
A leaf of all colors plays
a golden string fiddle
to a double-e waterfall over my back</p>
<p>Comic book colors on a violin river
crying Leonardo words
from out a silk trombone
I rang a silent bell
beneath a shower of pearls
in the eagle wing palace
of the Queen Chinee</p>
