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.

Why does the sun go on shining?

Why does the sea rush to shore?

Don't they know it's the end of the world,

'Cause you don't love me any more?

 

 

Skeeter Davis. Also Nancy Sinatra, Carpenters, Brenda Lee, Johnny Mathis, Loretta Lynn and Anne Murray.

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs
Don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter
With a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry
With the Furies breathing down your neck

… Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group
But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched

… It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

The Eastern world, it is explodin'
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'?
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Barry McGuire

And the fog rolls in
Through his bottle of gin
So he picks up a stone
That looks like a bone
And the bullets fly
And the rivers run dry
And the fat girls sigh
And the network anchor persons lie
And the soldier's alone
In the video zone
But the monkey's not watching
He's slipped out to the kitchen
To pile the dishes
And answer the phone

Roger Waters

Question Author

We're just tryin' to be friendly, come and watch us sing and play


We're the young generation, and we've got something to say


Hey, hey, we're the Monkees

Darling we're the young ones
And the young ones shouldn't be afraid

To live love
While the flame is strong
‘cause we may not be the young ones very long

A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in heaven?
Do you want us to cry?

And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you

One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
And life goes on
Without you

👑 Brian, Roger and John... for Freddie. The last time they recorded together post Mercury.

Is this the real life, is this just fantasy

Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality

Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see

I'm just a poor boy, i need no sympathy

Because i'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low

Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me

👑

How many special people change?
How many lives are livin' strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walkin' down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky

Oasis

From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore
The green old flowing mountains to the south down by the moor
She's mighty tall and handsome she's know quite well by all
Regular combination on the Wabash Cannonball

Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
As she glides along the woodland o'er the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engine hear the lonesome hobo's call
As you travel across the country on the Wabash Cannonball

Boxcar Willie

And it's sad and it's long and can't nobody sing along
It's a southbound train, it's a whistle in the wind
Ain't no one there to care where I've been
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again

Jamey Johnson

The downtown trains are full
Full of all them Brooklyn girls
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart
They're just thorns without the rose
Be careful of them in the dark

RS

Hey!
Wait for the L-train (Woah-woah-oh-oh-oh)
Hey!
Bedford to Broadway (Woah-woah-oh-oh-oh)
Brooklyn girls, when they walk in they rule the world (Woah-woah-oh-oh-oh)
Brooklyn girls, tough and pretty, break the rules (Woah-woah-oh-oh-oh)
Brooklyn girls, Brooklyn girls (Woah-woah-oh-oh-oh)

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells, and cockle shells,
And pretty maids all in a row.

 

Old nursery rhyme and folk song

Four on the floor, Ad-Rock's out the door
MCA's in the back 'cause he's skeezing with a ***
We got a safe in the trunk with money in a stack
With dice in the front and Brooklyn's in the back
White boys got more rhymes

No sleep 'til

No sleep 'til Brooklyn
No sleep 'til Brooklyn

🥇Beastie Boys

Yeah, I'm out that Brooklyn, now I'm down in Tribeca
Right next to De Niro, but I'll be hood forever
I'm the new Sinatra, and since I made it here
I can make it anywhere, yeah, they love me everywhere

Jay-Z & Alicia Keys

A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on a wall

Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting

🍌🍌🍌

But I'm waitin', yeah, I'm waitin'
For you to pick up the phone
And tell me that you're coming home
Yeah, I'm waitin', I'm waitin'

Bailey Zimmerman
 

I've been waiting
I've been waiting
I've been waiting
I'm still waiting
I'm with you (with you)
It's always one step too far
One step too far

Faithless ft. Dido

There's just no percentage in remembering the past
It's time you learned to live again at last

Come with me, leave yesterday behind
And take a giant step outside your mind
