lululuvsolBecause I'm a sucker for a music meme. Stolen from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

1. Open up your music player. Hit shuffle.
2. Record the first few lines of the first 25 songs that come up.
3. Skip instrumentals, but don't skip the embarrassing ones. (I also skipped non-English language songs.)
4. Let your f/list guess the song names and artists. Google is cheating.
5. Cross out the songs that have been guessed.
6. Pass it along.
The problem with my music collection as I have so much stuff, I doubt I'd even recognize half of it if it was on random. But I am obeying the rules because, frankly, I thought maybe there'd be some cool lyrics, and just because I don't know them doesn't mean you don't!
1. If you took the time you would find
That your outlaws have all conformed
And there’s no one left when you get upset
To make sure your anger’s transformed
2. There's a rock, there's a rock that holds you down
So take a chance in letting it fly
You have got, you have got to realize
That someone took the stars in the sky
And put 'em in your eyes.
3.I see them run when you throw them a bone
I see them run for you
I can't believe that not so long ago you had me running too
4.Just stop while you're ahead
You can't pretend
It's all so hopeless
I'm sure you aren't yet dead
It's in your head
You still can help it
C'mon
5. I had one mission
But I committed treason
I can't believe I caved for you
So I am now a failure
Everything I gave ya'
Let's elope and live like you.
6. It's been a long day
When nothing seems to be goin my way
I really don't need a lot
Just trying to hold on to what I got
7.Friend and lover
Sweat and slobber
Mother, daughter
Cold ice water
8.I can't do the real thing
I hurt all my feelings
You gotta keep it kind
You make it a mean while
9. Guessed By davesmusictank
Suppose you wanted someone the way I want you
Just imagine your body, mind and soul breaking in two
Walk the floor each night, shed tears you can't conceal...
10. Guessed by bbart
I know a guy who's tough but sweet
He's so fine, he can't be beat
He's got everything that I desire
Sets the summer sun on fire
11. Guessed by luckysnorkel
Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
And with the way you look I understand
that you are not impressed.
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
take off your party dress.
12. I sleep in the middle of the bed
You don't know, is it fine to hold my hand?
I sleep in the middle of the bed
Sun slips through my cold hands
13. Let me riddle you a ditty,
it’s just an itty bitty, little thing on my mind.
About a boy and a girl,
trying to take on the world one kiss at a time.
14.guessed by silverfish
I shut the windows and close the store
I lay down on the bathroom floor
Everyone I know is a bore
I'm starting to think that everything stinks
That I could really use a drink.
15. guessed by shamethebells
I step off the train
I'm walking down your street again
And past your door
But you don't live there anymore
16. Everything that I held true has failed me
And nothing is as clear as it once seemed
You have told me who I am and what to do and where to go
I have listened and I' m trapped inside your dream
17. A gloomy day and I'm feeling low
I don't know why 'cause I just got high
But I know that you're gone again
I know that you're gone again
18. Honey honey, how you thrill me, ah-hah, honey honey
Honey honey, nearly kill me, ah-hah, honey honey
I'd heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
19. What were you doing in my dream last night, honey
well I thought I liked that you're uptight, baby
Well it's a mystery to me how you keep on slipping in my mind
And it's downright dirty that this old wound won't heal with time
20. Something must have happened to both of us
Something must have happened
Something always does
Something must have told you "burn the bridges then the man"
21. Beets bleed and tables have legs
I boiled up a feast
And the table it ran away a bloody mess.
I need to stop singing in code
22. I got a wandering eye
I'm looking for you to remind me
Am I wasting my time?
I'm waiting for you to remind me
23. guessed by shamethebells
And I'll fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me all that I should know
24.There's a dim light off the pier
I've been watchin' it for years
Through the crashin' waves there's a distant bell
And it won't stop ringing in my head
25. Jump back, what's that sound?
Here she comes, full blast and top down.
Hot shoe, burnin' down the avenue.
Model citizen, zero discipline
