linked word - man

My dinner's on fire while she watches TV
And if you ever wondered what it's like to be me
She takes all my money and leaves me no smokes
Yells at my buddies and insults my folks

I'm breakin' my back doing the best that I can
She's got time for the dog but none for her man
And I'm no dope, but I can't cope
So hit the fuckin' road and piss up a rope

"Piss up a Rope" - Ween

[dorksrcool]

Linked word=dog

You can bring your dog
I got three
He can play the wolf for the evening
If you were to get lost behind these locks
Ain't that a good thing
Ain't that a good thing
Ain't that a good thing cause

I'm not makin' any promises
I'm not livin' to be the mrs.
I'm not makin' any promises honey

But you still got that something pretty boy
You still got that something as a man
You still got that something

Tori Amos- You Can Bring Your Dog

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: honey

A little dust never stopped me now
He liked my shoes
I kept them on
Sometimes I can hold my tongue
Sometimes not when you just
Skip-to-lou my darling
And you know what you're doin'
So don't even

You're just too used to my honey
Now
You're just too used to my honey

And I think I could leave your world
If she was the better girl
So when we died
I tried to bribe the undertaker
'Cause I'm not sure what you're doing
Or the reasons

You're just too used to my honey
Now
You're just too used to my honey
You're just too used to my honey
Now

"Honey" - Tori Amos

[EasierSaid]

linked word - girl

'Cuz I'm so fly, nobody can deny
The girl hasn't been born that can deal with I
Me, Sandy D., undoubtably def
Don't need to be dressed, I'm fresh to the flesh
Yes so tough, you know it is a must
Now Salt, get on the mic, and tell 'em why you go crush
'Cuz I'm oh-aye, I'm on, I'm on
Yes I'm oh-aye, I'm so damn on

"My Mic Sounds Nice" - Salt N Pepa

[Paint the Sky]

linked word = fly

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words darling kiss me
Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you

Fly me to the Moon - Frank Sinatra

[noho]

Linked word = fill

Come on baby dry your eyes
Wipe your tears
Never like to see you cry
Won’t you please forgive me

I wouldn’t ever try to hurt you
I just needed someone to hold me
To fill the void while you were gone
To fill this space of emptiness


"Human" - The Human League

[Foomatic]

linked phrase = dry your eyes

Dry your eyes mate
I know it’s hard to take but her mind has been made up
There’s plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you’ve got to walk away now
It’s over

Dry Your Eyes, The Streets

[Paint the Sky]

linked phase = you've got to

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feelin' two-foot small

Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

The Beatles - You've got to hide your love away

[EasierSaid]

linked word = here

Here today, gone tomorrow
It's possible, but I doubt it
His kiss is credit in the bank of love
I never leave home without it
He's different from any boy I know
Body supreme
Bedroom eyes, head back to the side
Please don't be so mean

14 karat love, you are my jewel of the Nile
When we make love diamonds are forever
Top to bottom I love you, I will leave you never
I got to, got to, got to tell you, darlin'


"Head to Toe" - Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: kiss

Got a cloud sleeping on my tongue
He goes then it goes and kiss the violets
As they're waking up

Leave me with your Borneo
Leave me the way I was before

You're already in there
I'll be wearing your tatoo
I'm already in
Circles and circles and circles again
The girl's in

Someone's knockin on my kitchen door
Leave the wood outside
What all the girls here are freezing cold

You can go now

"Cloud On My Tongue" - Tori Amos

[noho]

Linked word = girls

Us girls we are so magical
Soft skin red lips so kissable
Hard to resist so touchable
Too good to deny it
Ain't no big deal it's innocent

I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it


"I Kissed A Girl" - Katy Perry

[Paint the Sky]

Linked word = cherry


Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Rio - Duran Duran

[hermitfish]

linked word = Rio

By the river Rio Bravo
I walk all alone
And I wonder as I wander by the river
Where my love has flown

All the birds in the cottonwoods above her
Know I love her
Know I care
But my dreams, like the songs, she sang in Spanish
Seem to vanish
In the air

Dean Martin - "Rio Bravo"

[EasierSaid]

linked word = Spanish

Down below the Rio Grande
A Senorita held my hand
And sweetly sang an old melody
Without a worry or a care
A rose she gave me from her hair
And then she whispered "Si, Senor, si, si"

In a cabaret we danced the hours away
Her eyes told more than words there could say
I told her I had to go
Left her down in Mexico
The band played Spanish Two Step soft and low


"Spanish Two Step" - Nolan Bruce Allen

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: worry

Trouble...
Oh, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble
Feels like every time I get back on my feet
she come around and knock me down again
Worry...
Oh, worry, worry, worry, worry
Sometimes I swear it feels like this worry is my only friend
We'll I've been saved...
by a woman
I've been saved...
by a woman
I've been saved...
by a woman
She won't let me go
She won't let me go now

"Trouble" - Ray LaMontagne

[dorksrcool]

Linked word=sometimes

Seek my part... devote myself
My small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
Sometimes I know, sometimes I rise
Sometimes I fall, sometimes I don't
Sometimes I cringe, sometimes I live
Sometimes I walk, sometimes I kneel
Sometimes I speak of nothing at all
Sometimes I reach to myself, dear god.

"Sometimes" by Pearl Jam

[noho]

Linked word = reach

Did you ever think of me
As your best friend
Did I ever think of you
I’m not complaining
I never tried to feel
I never tried to feel this vibration
I never tried to reach
I never tried to reach your eden


"Eden" - Hooverphonic

[Paint the Sky]

Linked word = eden

I feel the way the wind blows
It tells me where you've been through
I watch the way the sun sets
Until the night's inside you
Some days I just don't worry
I let it pour through me
Some days I need to bury
The very depths of me
So I wait out here to the east of eden

East of Eden - Big Country

[Mestiza]

Linked Word: Night

Hold on the further waves are high,
sleepless every night,
lie down shading your eyes from everyone.

Hey darlin' don't you look fine,
so blue all the time,
when you're terrified.

Over and over the lines
you memorized in time,
now you're so tired
and the telephone's too far away.

Phone lives have taken all your time,
taken all this time,
for the rest of our lives we're terrified...

Grand Archives "Torn Blue Foam Couch"

[EasierSaid]

linked word - eyes

So yes I guess I’m asking you
To back a horse that’s good for glue
And nothing else
Find a man that’s truer than
Find a man that needs you more than I
Sit with me a while and let me listen to you talk about
Your dreams and your obsessions
I’ll be quiet and confessional
The violets explode inside me when I meet your eyes
Then I’m spinning and I’m diving like a cloud of starlings

Darling is this love?

"Starlings" - Elbow

[Paint the Sky]

linked word = horse

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

Horse with no name - America

[noho]

Linked word = rocks

And now the dress is hung the ticket pawned
The factor max that proved the fact
Is melted down
And woven on the edging of my pillow
And my brother lays upon the rocks
He could be dead he could be not
He could be you
He's chameleon comedian corinthian and caricature
Shooting up pie in the sky
The Bewlay brothers
In the feeble and the bad
Bewlay brothers
In the blessed and cold
In the crutch hungry dark
Was where we flayed our mark
Oh and we were gone
Kings of oblivion
We were so turned on
In the mind warp pavilion

"The Bewlay Brothers" - David Bowie

[Claidia]

Linked word: dead.


For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps
Bow before a war
Call it religion

Some wounds never heal
Some tears never will
Dry for the unkind
Cry for mankind

Even the dead cry
- Their only comfort
Kill your friend, I don't care
Orchid kids, blinded stare

Nightwish - Kinslayer.

[Paint the Sky]

Linked word = religion

Life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I've said too much,I set it up
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you

Loosing my religion - REM

[EasierSaid]

linked word = eyes

Someone tell me how I feel
It’s silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like a final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight
‘Cause holy cow I love your eyes


"One Day Like This" - Elbow

[Claidia]

Linked word: Kiss

Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.

Kiss Me, Sixpence None The Richer

[Foomatic]

linked phrase = green grass

I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Every night be tucked in close to you
Raise our kids where the good lord's blessed
Point our rockin' chairs towards the west
And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
Where the green grass grows

Where the Green Grass Grows, Tim McGraw

[Paint the Sky]

Linked word = river

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day
From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
She stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face

WHERE THE WILD ROSES GROW - Nick cave and Kylie Minougue

[EasierSaid]

linked word - know

So I’m there
Charging around with a juggernaut brow
Overdraft speeches and deadlines to make
Cramming commitments like cats in a sack
Telephone burn and a purposeful gait
When out of a doorway the tentacles stretch of a song that I know
And the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day
And it’s you, and it’s May
And we’re sleeping through the day
And I’m five years ago and three thousand miles away

"The Bones of You" - Elbow

[Zodiax]

Linked Word = Telephone

Don’t try to call my telephone it’s disconnected
And I don’t know where I’m going but can you guide me
But if I find love where I’m going will it survive me
‘Cause in your own space you’re disconnected and
in your own mind you’re not affected
And in your own time you’re still attracted but in your own life

This heart attack I’ve gotta get away not coming back
I want some downtime so call me when you can and I’ll be fine

This Heart Attack - Faker
