Lyrics meme

[chuckro]

Let's all do the lyrics meme, the lyrics meme, the lyrics meme. Let's take turn and lyrics together, the lyrics meme!

Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first is the title.

Jethrien suggested I use the entire collection. Can you guess any of these?

"I Can't Get No Satisfaction"

Can you not hear me anymore?
Hava Nagila! Hava Nagila! Hava Nagila!
It's a bad day,
A little ditty about Jack and Diane.

Come out Virginia, don't let me wait,
I saw an open book, and I looked inside it,
Everybody's telling all, baring their souls,
No no, no no, boy.

Fashion always changes from place to place
One night, yeah, one town,
Clouds so swift, the rain fallin' in
If you have a color to shine.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
Somewhere, in burst of glory
Who do you think you are?
They pulled in just behind the bridge.

Oh Johnny and Jane, they were the perfect married couple
Secure yourself to heaven, hold on tight the night has come
Put on the skillet, put on the lid
Here we all go now to that east side.

"Famous", from Running on Ice, my favorite Vertical Horizon album. We'd considered trying to do some song that was more stylish to dance to, but kept coming back to the fact that that one's "our" song. So i finally stopped fighting - and lo and behold, turns out we could dance to it after all.

Fighting it, not fighting each other.
