See How Far This Goes...

[Arksided]

Hi everyone the last one will no longer appear in recent posts... today.

Many know how to play and new players are always welcome, they isn't rules as such just post a song lyric that follows on from the previous one. 
Feel free to have a natter along the way, artist is optional although helpful if a little obscure all I ask is you play nice Xx

The first poster has free choice for an opening song lyric of this 'new' thread.    

[maggiebee]

Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
Like a worm on a hook
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee

If I, if I have been unkind
I hope that you can just let it go by
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you

[Ken4155]

Everybody knows the deal is rotten

Old Black Joe's still picking cotton

For your ribbons and bows

And everybody knows

LC

[Hazlinny]

I know what you're doing, yeah, yeah
I know why you can't forgive me
I know why you're singing lost love
The lyrics haven't changed

Dionne Farris

[maggiebee]

Eh ken where ehm goin'

He wears a tartan kilt, he wears it in the fashion

And every time he birls roond

[Arksided]

Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me"
Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me"
Said the laughing gnome

Bowie

[mushroom25]

He laughs upon point duty
He laughs upon his beat
He laughs at everybody when he's
Walking in the street

He never can stop laughing
He says he's never tried
But once he did arrest a man
And laughed until he cried!

Oh ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha!
Ooh! Ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha ha-ha!
Ooh! Ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha ha-ha!
Oh ho-ho-ho, ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha ha-ha-ha!

Johnson/Grey, performed by Charles Penrose

[Hazlinny]

 

Every face that I see
Is all wrapped up in frowns
And unfortunately
It kind of gets me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Laugh (Oh, ha-ha-ha)
At the things that are wrong (Oh, ha-ha-ha)
If you thinks it's this song (Yeah, ha-ha-ha. Woo)
Then laugh (Oh, ha-ha-ha)
Then laugh (Oh, ha-ha-ha)
Then laugh (Oh, ha-ha-ha)

The Monkees

This ain't no tragedy
This ain't no addiction
This ain't no comedy
This ain't no fiction
But baby you make me laugh
And baby you make me cry
I don't mind either way
Now I don't care why

You just gotta laugh - or cry
Right till the day you die
Just open up your heart
Or open up your eyes
Laugh or cry

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you, you're goin' nowhere

How can I go on, from day to day
Who can make me strong in every way
Where can I be safe, where can I belong
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're lost and they're nowhere to be found
How can I go on?

Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé 

[Patsy33]

Empty spaces, what are we living for?

Abandoned places, I guess we know the score, on and on

Does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero, another mindless crime

Behind the curtain, in the pantomime

Hold the line

Does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on

The show must go on, yeah

Inside my heart is breaking

My makeup may be flaking

But my smile, still, stays on

Queen

[mushroom25]

Beautiful faces
And loud, empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above

But here in my heart
I give you the best of my love

Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
(You get the best of my love)
Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet darling
You get the best of my love
(You get the best of my love)

The Eagles

[Hazlinny]

With every wine you taste
With every song you sing
By now you may have guessed
I hope you get the best of everything

Sinatra

[mushroom25]

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take?

The Police

[Hazlinny]

… If you dance, I'll dance
And if you don't, I'll dance anyway
Give peace a chance
Let the fear you have fall away

… I've got my eye on you
I've got my eye on you

… Say yes to Heaven
Say yes to me
Say yes to Heaven
Say yes to me

Lana del Rey

[mushroom25]

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine

I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they'll never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
We can dance (Danser!)

We can go where we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat
From our hats to our feet
And surprise 'em with a victory cry

Men Without Hats

[Hazlinny]

There'll be another time I tell myself
When our paths will cross again and you'll tell yourself

We look good together
Good together
And I never never know
Never never would I ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
Walk by myself
What is this love?
I don't know myself

Litt'Lans

[Arksided]

Oh-oh, what's love got to do, got to do with it?
What's love but a second-hand emotion?
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

TT

[Hazlinny]

And, how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?

Stop!

In the name of love

Before you break my heart
