(There are actually two possible answers for this one)



Tears for Fears... if I am not mistaken.


You are correct...but do you know what songs these lyrics appear in? HINT: They are two inter-connected songs on the same album. One of the two songs was a hit single


The hit that I can remember is "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" but the lyrics come from "Broken."

The songs are "Broken" and "Head Over Heals" (Head Over Heals was the hit out of the two)

How about:

Do I have to tell the story
of a thousand rainy days
since we first met?
Its a big enough umbrella
but its always me that ends up
getting wet

(Bonus points if you can name all three songs this is used in!)

How about this one:

Gonna take a chance on her
one bullet in the cylinder
And in a moment of passion
get the glory like Charles Manson

Gonna smile, I'm gonna laugh
you're gonna get a blood bath
And in a moment of passion
get the glory like Charles Manson

Okay, you got the first, so you still get points for that! It was also used on "Oh My God" from the Police's Synchronicity album, and on "Seven Days" from Sting's Ten Summoner's Tales

Since nobody has stepped to the plate with the answer...

It is "Glad to See You Go" by the Ramones.

Apathy in Babylon
Dreams have been deferred so long
Those who dwell in misery
Never recieve 'her' empathy
'No one cares for anyone'
The chorus to her fatal song
This woman spites everyone
This woman is man...


In the world that you perceive
Who are your true enemies?
Is it those you do not know
Or the ones you can't control?
Does joy excite ever nerve
From the mistress that you serve?
So you have the strength at all
To heed the final call?


Are they still together? I wouldn't know... uhm.
They split, right?


they're together. Been around for YEARS.

Hint: they just released a live album.

but tonight I sleep...on a bed of naaaiiils!"

or something like that. Guess, baby! Ow!

Howsabout;

I know you're purely marxist
Your philosophy's so cool
With your tranquillisers, valium and gin
You talk of euthanasia
And your breakdown was so cool
Did Stanley Kubrick fake it with the moon?





It appears that I am lyrically challenged...

I don't know this one...


Has anyone got this yet?
Some people are like Slinkies...

They're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

And...

I jumped in the river, what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me
A moon full of stars and astral cars
All the things I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and futures
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

I jumped into the river

Even he'd like to end it soon...
