Califan007 The Constipated Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 How well do you think you know yer music? First things first: - Name the song and artist (if possible). - Please don't simply google the lyrics...try and figure out the songs from the lyrics alone. - All songs are at least relatively well-known; there won't be any B-sides or obscure unreleased tracks. - Best way to do this is to try and answer before reading everyone else's answers. - At some point I'll add in the answers in a spoiler tag, just not gonna do it yet. - Whoever gets the most answers right, I will send them $200 via cashapp or PayPal.** Ready? Here we go: 1) I did the moose Oh no, not the moose! Monkey wasn't funkin' Chicken wasn't pickin' 2) You say you'll try harder But I think it's just too late Well, the car is revving in the drive And I'm not the sort to wait 3) People call me on the phone I'm trying to avoid Or can the people on TV see me, Or am I just paranoid? 4) And there's a message that I'm sending out Like a telegraph to your soul And if I can't bridge this distance Stop this heartbreak overload 5) It's getting late to give you up I took a sip from my devil's cup Slowly, it's taking over me 6) We get together Oh, we get together But separate's always better when there's feelings involved 7) Daddy works a long day He'd be coming home late, yeah, he's coming home late And he's bringing me a surprise 'Cause dinner's in the kitchen, and it's packed in ice 8 ) Well, you're built like a car You've got a hubcap diamond star halo You're built like a car, oh yeah 9) I'm bringing booty back Go ahead and tell them skinny ****es that 10) I must be losin' it 'Cause my mind plays tricks on me It looked so easy But you know looks sometimes deceive 11) Sometimes I think that you'll never Understand me But something tells me together We'd be happy 12) Excuse me, baby I don't mean to be rude But I guess tonight I'm just not, I'm just not in the mood So if you don't mind I would like to...watch 13) I've spent a lifetime looking for someone Don't try to understand me Just simply do the things I say 14) Why don't you use it? Try not to bruise it Buy time, don't lose it 15) One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror But he doesn't recognize his own face His health is fading and he doesn't know why Three letters took him to his final resting place, y'all don't hear me 16) Well there's ninety-seven crosses Planted in the courthouse yard Ninety-seven families Who lost ninety-seven farms 17) How could I forget And he hit me with a surprise left My jaw left hurting Dropped wide open 18) Before her love I was cruel and mean Had a hole in the place where my heart should have been 19) Thanks to you I got a new thing started Thanks to you I'm not the broken hearted Thanks to you I'm finally thinkin' 'bout me 20) I'll tell your mama, I'll tell your friends I'll tell anyone whose heart can comprehend ** By "send them $200 via cashapp or PayPal," I mean I will respond to them with a thumbs-up emoji and type "Way to go" in bold text. Seriously, I'm not giving anyone $200 for this, come on now lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
