The 80's and 90's Lyrics game

she tricks me into thinkin'
I can't believe my eyes
I wait for her forever
but she never does arrive

All Mixed Up  --  The Cars


Oh, I'm not lookin' for sympathy
No I'm just frightened by this apathy
Like footsteps way in back of me
On a narrow street of stone       

Oh, I'm not lookin' for sympathy
No I'm just frightened by this apathy
Like footsteps way in back of me
On a narrow street of stone    

All Mixed Up - Tom Petty

Awesome connection, Cobra!

Button your lip baby
Button your coat
Let's go out dancing
Go for the throat
Let's bury the hatchet
Wipe out the past

Button your lip baby
Button your coat
Let's go out dancing
Go for the throat
Let's bury the hatchet
Wipe out the past

Mixed Emotions - The Rolling Stones (love that song)


Ah, don't you know, I've been on my own
But I'm coming home.
And I'd like you to be there,
I feel a little cold in the air,

Like it Or Not - Genesis

It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud

It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud

Rock You Like A Hurricane  --  The Scorpions


From the 70's

Once I thought I saw you in a crowded hazy bar
Dancing on the light from star to star
Far across the moonbeam, I know that's who you are
I saw your brown eyes turning once to fire     

Like a Hurricane - Neil Young

I made it through the wilderness
Somehow I made it through
Didn't know how lost I was til I found you
 

I made it through the wilderness
Somehow I made it through
Didn't know how lost I was til I found you

Like A Virgin  --  Madonna


I finally made it through med school
Somehow I made it through
I'm just an intern
I still make a mistake or two

Like a Surgeon - Weird Al Yankovic   (whatever happened to that dude)


Just like the pied piper
Led rats through the streets

Weird Al is alive and well and still putting out great albums (in my personal opinion)
His latest album from last year is called Alpocalypse and includes the hilarious parody of Lady Gaga's Born This way called Perform This Way
But my personal favorite is his Doors parody called Craigslist. He does a great Jim Morrison!
Here is a video of that one:

Symphony Of Destruction - Megadeath

By the way, on that Weird Al video that I gave the link to that is indeed Ray Manzarek on keyboards!

Next:
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah

Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve, Melody based on Rolling Stones "Last Time."


Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night 
Then we'll go our separate ways 
With hours left time on our sides   

Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
With hours left time on our sides  

If You Leave  --  Orchestral Manoeuvres In the Dark


Life isn't easy from the singular side
Down in the hole some emotions are hard to hide  

Everybody Wants You - Billy Squier


You can't get romantic on a subway line
Conductor don't like it, says you're wastin' your time 

Everybody Wants Some- Van Halen

Thanks for the link, Rhino. Love Weird Al! He played to a sold out show here last November. Alive and well indeed.


There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you

Tears For Fears- Everybody Wants to Rule the World

The sun was spitting fire
The sky was cool as ice
I felt a little tired
So I watched Miami Vice

I wasn't sure if needed to be linked to previosu song/artist, so here's one that is linked..please play whichever is legal-

Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on
I drink myself of newfound pity.

Walk The Dinosaur  --  Was (Not Was) 

Welcome to the game, thatcobra
 

Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on
I drink myself of newfound pity.

The World I Know  --  Collective Soul



That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, an aeroplane
Lenny Bruce is not afraid
