the lyrics meme!

[aftertherockets]

Because, you know. I can. And everyone else is doing it. And you guys better guess, or I will cry big fat emo tears. Seriously.


As sort of a hint to keep in mind while guessing, all these songs come off of my newly constructed "old school playlist," i.e., stuff I listened to in high school. *g*

Rules:
I'm shuffling my playlist and posting my favorite lines to the random songs that come up. I don't know how many yet. Until I get bored with this. You guess the songs and I'll cross them out as people get them. Don't google the lyrics cause then you're a cheater. And the winner gets my everlasting love and adoration.

1. sitting on a sofa on a sunday afternoon/going to a candidate's debate
2. the way you treat me like the only/slightly brings me down a lot
3. i have kissed honey lips/felt the healing in her fingertips
4. take me home with my elevator bones!/that was a good drum break
5. i wish, i wish i could fly/i wish, i wish i could lie
6. she swears the moon don’t hang quite as high as it used to
7. the answers we find/are never what we had in mind/so we make it up as we go along
8. in summer we can taste the rain
9. i can play the guitar like a motherfucking riot
10. i'm pissed off but i'm too polite/when people break in the mcdonalds line
11. i wanna be drunk i wanna be high/i wanna be drunk i wanna be high on you
12. it’s such a gorgeous sight/to see you eat in the middle of the night
13. when you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
14. she broke down and i broke down/cause i was tired of lying
15. hungry, hungry again/when will it start to sway
16. don't the best of them bleed it out/while the rest of them peter out
17. no one was looking, i was thinking of you/oh yeah, did I mention...
18. ambition makes you look pretty ugly
19. frightened you'll slip away
20. it isn't real and i'm not going to break/i'm not going to break
21. i can promise you/you'll stay as beautiful/with dark hair and soft skin...forever
22. too much, I take whatever you’re given/not enough
23. a change of pace could really do some good/she's leavin' an empty case which you're bringing back the show
24. daddy didn't give attention/oh, to the fact that mommy didn't care
25. i know i could love you much better than this
26. is it because i lied when i was seventeen?
27. saturday I'm running wild/and all the lights are changing red to green
28. i need you (i need you) more than anyone, darlin'/you know that i have from the start
29. you know what stuart/i like you/you're not like the other people/here in the trailer park
30. baby don't you sign that paper tonight, she said/but i can't work in fast food all my life


Seriously, you guys. Some of these are so easy you need to not have ears to not know them. (Or else, I suppose, not know me very well AT ALL.) So guess! And make me happy!

These annoy me.
I always see lyrics that I know, but I often don't have any idea who does the song, or the title. Sometimes both.

Bah.

It's okay. I still like you. ;)
