"I will go down with the ship, I won't put my hands up and surrender. There will be no white flag above my door, I'm in love and always will be." - White flag by Dido

Just can't get that song out of my head these days. That woman has a great voice.

"now when I spoke to god I knew he'd understand, he said sit by me and I'll be your guiding hand.
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to."

or- from my all time favourite album (and that's a tough choice!)

"A flash in the pan
A storm in a teacup
A needle in a haystack
A prize for the winner
A debt for the loser
A catch for the chasing
A jewel for the chooser
A man for the making in this blistering heat

Sweat it all out
Sweat it all out
With your bedroom eyes and your baby pout
Sweat it all out
In our electric storms and our shifting sands
Our candy jars and our sticky hands


Don't forget what I wrote you then
And don't forget what I told you then
And don't forget I that meant to win
And don't forget your ventolin
So a hammering in my head don't stop
In the bullet train from Tokyo to Los Angeles."

OK class.... who can tell me the difference between a line, a verse, a chorus and an entire song? Bonus points if anyone knows what a bridge is.

As fast as I pick it up It runs away through my clutching hands"

santa clause came home late last night, drunk on christmas wine,

fell down hard in the driveway, left his bag hung on the laundry line

he's got Cobra gunships for his golden boy, and a hello kitty for his pride and joy

and a star in the ____ __ _____ by your name.....

(left out the title)

We humble serfs all learned the fine art of thread bastardisation from The MasterBastardiser.

That would be you, JTT :chuci

"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle"


can you name the song that this line is in (easy) AND the poem where this line originated (not so easy)


also....

"You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal."
