Let's play Spot the Lyric

[laurence]

Been away for a while and saw that nobody has posted any new lyrics so.......

"Billy rapped all night about his suicide,
How he'd kick it in the head when he was twenty-five..."

Easy enough.

"Diary of a Rock and Roll Star" by Mr. I. Hunter is one of the best books on the subject, and laugh out loud in places!

Don't know if there are any lyrics still outstanding so here's my suggestion...

"Good heavens Miss South America; you're BEAUTIFUL!"

There's a bonus point if you can name who sings(?) the line

Magnus Pyke in Thomas Dolby's, "She blinded m e with science". I think it's Sakamoto, not S. America. I didn't like the song at the time, but it seems reasonably amusing now, coupled with the vid:

Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden.

Have recently managed to get hold of a fair bit of their music and have to say that I really like it - should I be ashamed??

Hmmm a new lyric for the masses....

"Stare at the beautiful women... she's looking at you. Ahh no, no, she's looking at me"

Please don't talk much it burns my ears
Tonight you've talked for a thousand years

 

[Disgruntled Goat]
