Link Word - Fields

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever

Linked word = living

Sometimes I feel I'm gonna' break down and cry
Nowhere to run nothing to do with my time
I get lonely, so lonely
Living on my own

Living on my own- Freddy Mercury

[starcomed]

Linked Word: lonely

She came in lookin' good and lookin' around
She's checkin' out every man in the room right now
Don't go tellin' her about right or wrong
She's been alone for way too long

The heart is a lonely hunter
With only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort
In the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger
To the dark of the neon light
The heart is a lonely hunter
When there's no sign of love in sight

Title: The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter
Artist: Reba McEntire

LINK LOVE
Instant Karma's gonna get you,
Gonna knock you right on the head,
You better get yourself together,
Pretty soon you're gonna be dead,
What in the world you thinking of,
Laughing in the face of love,
What on earth you tryin' to do,
It's up to you, yeah you.

Instant Karma's gonna get you,
Gonna look you right in the face,
Better get yourself together darlin',
Join the human race,
How in the world you gonna see,
Laughin' at fools like me,
Who on earth d'you think you are,
A super star,
Well, right you are.

Instant Karma's gonna get you,
Gonna knock you off your feet,
Better recognize your brothers,
Ev'ryone you meet,
Why in the world are we here,
Surely not to live in pain and fear,
Why on earth are you there,
When you're ev'rywhere,
Come and get your share.

Well we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun,
Yeah we all shine on,
Come on and on and on on on,
Yeah yeah, alright, uh huh, ah-.

John Lennon Instant Karma

[thiswomanswork]

Linked word = think

It lay buried here.
It lay deep inside me.
It's so deep I don't think that I can speak about it...
It could take me all my life,
But it would only take a moment to
Tell you what I'm feeling,
Oh, but I don't know if I'm ready yet.
You come walking into this room
Like you're walking into my arms...

And what would I do without you?

Take away the love and the anger,
And a little piece of hope's holding us together.
Looking for a moment that'll never happen,
Living in the gap between past and future.
Take away the stone and the timber,
And a little piece of rope won't hold it together.

If you can't tell your sister,
If you can't tell a priest
'Cause it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it
To anyone,
Can you tell it to your heart?
Can you find it in your heart
To let go of these feelings
Like a bell to a southerly wind?
We could be like two strings beating,
Speaking in sympathy...

What would we do without you?

Kate Bush - 'Love and Anger'

[Zodiax]

Linked Word = Deep

Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up
now
I wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true
and deep
as the sea
but right now
everything you want is wrong,
and right now
all your dreams are waking up,
and right now
I wish I could follow you
to the shores
of freedom,
where no one lives.

Honey and the Moon - Joseph Arthur

[noho]

Linked word = sea

His eyes were the color of the sand
And the sea
And the more he talked to me
The more he reached me
Oh but I couldn't let go of LA
City of the fallen angels


"Court and Spark" - Herbie Hancock & Norah Jones

[jay/wt4evr]

Linked words = the more


The more I think, the less I see
when I'm able to walk
I'm queen of my world
I let it rain on my skin
I don't let myself down
I don't let myself down
just wanna be one with you
wanna be one with you
The more I think, the less I do
when I'm able to talk
I'm queen of my world
I let it rain on my skin
I don't ask myself why
I don't ask myself why
I wanna be one with you
wanna be one with you

and all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul



Rock your soul-Elisa

[hondos]

LINK WORD=QUEEN
She keeps Moet et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Kruschev and JFK
At anytime an invitation
You can't decline

Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice


She's a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

Killer Queen=Queen

[glokenpop baby]

Linked Word - nice

I like boys with strong convictions
And convicts with perfect diction
Underdogs with good intentions
Amputees with stamp collections
Plywood skinboards ride the ocean
Salty noses suntan lotion
Always seriously joking
And rambunctiously soft-spoken
I like boys that like their mothers
And i have a thing for brothers
But they always wait til we're under the covers
To say i'm sure glad we're not lovers

You're so nice and you're so smart
You're such a good friend i hafta break your heart
Tell you that i love you then i'll tear your world apart
Just pretend i didn't tear your world apart

'So Nice, So Smart - Kimya Dawson' (:

[Tues]

sticking with the Juno Soundtrack...

linked word = pretend

The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day
The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays
He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor
He knows the drink affects his speed he’s praying for a doorway
Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench
Life outside the diamond is a wrench

I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend
I know it wouldn’t come to love, my heroine pretend
A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day
You’d settle for an epitaph like “Walk Away, Renee”
The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower
Meet you at the statue in an hour
Meet you at the statue in an hour

"Piazza, New York Catcher" - Belle & Sebastian

[Foomatic]

linked phrases = I wish, you were here


How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground
What have you found? The same old fears
Wish you were here


Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd

[gorn]

linked word = fish

I was just a little pup
And it was derby day
Was dad and me and darrell
Out in san pablo bay
Taco flavored doritos
And my orange life vest
Dad caught a hundred pound sturgeon
On twenty-pound test
Now he fought that fish for an hour
And a half
Darrell'd say "jump ya sons a bitch!"
And he grabbed for the gaff
When we got him in the boat
He measured six feet long
I was so danged impressed i had
To write this song called
Fish on

"Fish On" by Primus

[hondos]

LINK WORD=POUND

Oh dirty Maggie Mae
They have taken her away
And she never walk down Lime Street any more.
Oh the judge he guilty found her
For robbing a homeward bounder
That dirty no good robbin' Maggie Mae.
To the port of Liverpool
They returned me to
Two pounds ten a week, that was my pay

Maggie Mae-Beatles

[glokenpop baby]

Link Word - Walk

So who you supposed to listen to when you're looking for something to do?
And all the voices shut you up
-Someone put a brick in your coffee cup-
When you're trying to decide whether to walk or to ride
Take the easy way you know that you want to

I saw an educated girl give her hair a twirl
And contemplate the meaning of a man with just one arm
She's not a genius or a dunce, but it makes no difference
For at any moment we might find ourselves a charm

The Ditty Bops - Walk or Ride <3333

[satinpaper]

Link word - want

I want to be different like everybody else I want to be like,
I want to be just like all the different people
I have no further interest in being the same,
because I have seen difference all around,
and now I know that that's what I want
I don't want to blend in and be indistinguishable,
I want to be a part of the different crowd,
and assert my individuality along with the others
who are different like me
I don't want to be identical to anyone or anything
I don't even want to be identical to myself

King Missile - It's Saturday

[hondos]

Link Word=Myself
I love myself I want you to love me
When I'm feeling down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You're the one who makes me come honey
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine
I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I´d do anything for you
I don´t want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
I don´t want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you I touch myself
I Touch Myself by The Divinyls

[the hero factor]

Linked word = down

These back steps are steeper to the ground
The brightest stars are falling down
I'm walking the edge, walking the tightest rope
We can be frank, reality rips on through, rolling like a hurricane
I'm over the bridge and under the rain

If everything's falling, if everything's changed
If I'm in the open, if I'm in the way

What am I doing here
If you're not with me?
What have I got to live for, if it's just my own dream
Take it back to the beginning, back to the start
When gravity's pulling, you're still holding my heart
You come crashing down
Crashing down

"Crashing Down" -Mat Kearney

[noho]

Linked word = ground

Now a man is born to go a lovin'
A woman's born to weep and fret
And stay at home to tend her oven
And drown her past regrets
In coffee and cigarettes
I'm moaning all the morning
Mourning all the night
And in between its nicotine
And not much hard to fight
Coffee, feeling low as the ground
Its driving me crazy this waiting for my baby
To maybe come around


"Black Coffee" - Sarah Vaughan

[thiswomanswork]

linked word = coffee

Down in the cellar
You're getting into making poison.
You slipped some on the side,
Into my glass of wine,
And I don't want any coffee--homeground.

Offer me a chocolate,
No thank you, spoil my diet, know your game!
But tell me just how come
They smell of bitter almonds?
It's a no-no to your coffee homeground.

Pictures of Crippin
Lipstick-smeared.
Torn wallpaper.
Have the walls got ears here?

Well, you won't get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won't get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won't get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.

Kate Bush - 'Coffee Homeground'

[hondos]

LINK WORD=TEA
Well there ain't nothin' wrong
with the way she moves
Or scarlet begonias or a
touch of the blues
And there's nothing wrong with
the love that's in her eye
I had to learn the hard way
to let her pass by--
let her pass by


The wind in the willows played Tea for Two
The sky was yellow and the sun was blue
Strangers stopped strangers
just to shake their hand
Everybody's playing
in the Heart of Gold Band
Heart of Gold Band

Scarlet Begonias=Grateful Dead

[thiswomanswork]

linked word = sun

Light
And day
Is more than you'll say

Cause all
My feelings are more
Than i can let by
Or not
More than you've got
Just follow the day

Follow the day and reach for the sun!

You don't see me flyin to the red
One more you're done
Just follow the seasons and find the time
Reach for the bright side
You don't see me flyin to the red
One more you're nuts
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the sun.

The Polyphonic Spree - 'Light and Day'

[starcomed]

Linked Words: Flyin' & Red

Half empty airport, plane's at the gate
They tell her it's full, she says she'll wait
She's been here all evening sitting all alone
Watching the business men talk on the phone.

She fixes her make up, cleans out her purse
Leaving is hard, but staying is worse
Just for a moment it crosses her mind
She could go back, no not this time.

It's almost midnight, and they just called her name
She's on that last flight, now nothing's the same
Her ticket says standby, but she can stand on her own
She's all through crying, now she's flyin'
Taking that red-eye home.

Artist: Suzy Bogguss
Song Title: Taking That Red-Eye Home

[glokenpop baby]

Linked Word - On

You quiver like a candle on fire
I'm putting you out
Maybe tonight we could be the last shout
But I'm fascinated by your style
Your beauty will last for a while

You're feeling instead of being
The more that I live on the inside
There's nothing to give
I'm infatuated by your moves
I've got to search hard for your clues

Once Around The Block - Badly Drawn Boy <33

[noho]

Linked word = hard

I believe a woman can work hard and succeed
And we could be content to believe
That she could be in charge of the free
And be the President

If not now when? If not today then
What happens tomorrow? What happens tomorrow?

If you become the change you want to see you change
What happens tomorrow? What happens tomorrow?


"What Happens Tomorrow" - Melissa Etheridge

[hondos]

LINK WORD=FREE

This is the night of the expanding man
I take one last drag
As I approach the stand
I cried when I wrote this song
Sue me if I play too long
This brother is free
I'll be what I want to be
Deacon Blues= Steely Dan

[thiswomanswork]

linked word = song

Has anyone ever written anything for you?
In all your darkest hours,
Have you ever heard me sing?
Listen to me now.
You know I'd rather be alone
Than be without you.
Don't you know?

Has anyone ever given anything to you?
In your darkest hours,
Did you ever give it back?
Well, I have.
I have given that to you.
If it's all I ever do,
This is your song.

Stevie Nicks - 'Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You'

[glokenpop baby]

Linked Word - 'Me'

Diamonds are forever,
Sparkling round my little finger.
Unlike men, the diamonds linger;
Men are mere mortals who -
Are not worth going to your grave for.
I don't need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love's gone,
They'll luster on.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Forever and ever.

'Diamonds Are Forever' - Shirley Bassey (lol, references to men)

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: diamonds

Surrender then start your engines
You'll know quite soon what my mistake was
For those on horseback or dog sled
You turn on at the bend in the road
I hear she still grants forgiveness
Although I willingly forgot her
The offering is molasses and you say

I guess I'm an underwater thing
So I guess I can't take it personally
I guess I'm an underwater thing
I'm liquid running
There's a sea secret in me
It's plain to see it is rising
But I must be flowing liquid diamonds

"Liquid Diamonds" - Tori Amos

[glokenpop baby]

Linked Word - Underwater

Half underwater ,
I'm half my mother's daughter,
A fraction's left up to dispute.
The whole collection,
Half off the price they're asking,
In the halfway house of ill repute.

Half accidental,
Half pain full instrumental,
I have a lot to think about.
You think they're joking?
You have to go provoke him...
I guess it's high time you found out.

Half Jack - The Dresden Dolls (:
