So this is an awesome game I've been playing on another forum. It's simple, really...

Look at the lyric below. See how it ends with a word in italics? Think of a lyric from another song that has that word in it. Now write it in the next post, making sure to say what it is and who it is by, and to bold the word.

Now, the next person will have to find a lyric that contains the last word of your lyric! See how it could go on forever? Let's start.

Jonathan Coulton - First of May

I woke up this morning

I had a scone and a large house blend

And then a little conversation with my squirrel and chipmunk friends

I said I'm sick and tired of winter

And I wish that it was spring

And then a little fellow named Robin Redbreast

Began to sing

And he sang

Ooh ooh child, what'd you think the cold winter's gonna last forever?

Ooh ooh child, now's the time for all the people to get together

Outside

"Invisible" - Taylor Swift

She can't see the way your eyes

Light up when you smile

She'll never notice how you stop and stare

Whenever she walks by

And you can't see me wantin' you the way you want her

But you are everything to me

[Chorus:]

And I just wanna show you

She don't even know you

She's never gonna love you like I want to

And you just see right through me but if you only knew me

We could be a beautiful, miracle, unbelievable

Instead I'm just invisible

[Guest]

Ordinary Miracle - Sarah Mclachlan

Isn’t it remarkable?

Like every time a rain drop falls,

It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Birds in winter have their fling

But always make it home by spring.

It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

"Honest Man" - Rolling Stones

Well there's a

hole in my chest

Where my heart was

The body refuses to die

And the rain's coming down

The night wont end

It looks like it's

set for the night

[andromeda]

Hm... shouldn't in Kay's post be the word stares and not stare?!

So you kinda messed it up!

[Guest]

We seduce the dark with pain and rapture

Like two ships that pass in the night

You and I, a ***** and a bashful sailor

Welcome to a sunrise of a dirty mind

All you love is a lie

You one-night butterfly

Hurt me, be the one

Whoever brings the night

The Dark, created to hide the innocent white, the lust of night

Eyes so bright, seductive lies

Crimson masquerade where I merely played my part

Poison dart of desire

[andromeda]

I call Rookie to lock this... it's pointless... if we not going to play it right we better not play at all! <_<

EDIT: Riranor you didn't even write who sang the song and what's it called...

Yup! Useless!

i think its ok

Maybe I'm just a control freak, but like I said if we are not going to play this right we better not play at all!

Er...Andromeda...calm down, it's fine...it's just a game, although I thought the point was to make the first word of the verse match the last word...not some random word...but otherwise I think it's working out fine...no need to get it locked o.O *cough*Abitdrastic*cough*

<(^-^)>

[Izzy]

0_o Calm down please.

Guys - it is important that band name and song title are included. Otherwise lyrics aren't being given credit, and honestly, we don't know whether you're making things up for not.

Kat, as long as both words are in the song and the italicized word comes after the bolded word, it's fine. After all, you could have just cropped the lyrics to make it look like that anyway.

"One Slip" - Pink Floyd

I will, I will, she sighed to my request

and then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put

to the test

then drowned in desire, our souls on fire

I led the way to the funeral pyre

and without a thought of the consequence

I gave in to my decadence

[Guest]

I think we need to go back to "stares." No one ever entered a song using that word after it was assigned.

Thank you, exactly continue from this post!

We want stares please!

Yeah... I get stares alright... I'm always too loud

And one verse will be enough!

*Hands Andromeda a steaming cup of calming tea* We understand Andromeda...Izzy started this, I believe she gets to make the rules...

When she Stares - Span

When she stares at me I go down

When that stare hits me I'm wrapped around

When she stares I know it won't be long before I crawl

Re-Education through Labor (Rise Against)

We crawl on our knees for you

Under a sky no longer blue

We sweat all day long for you

But we sow seeds to see us through

The sometimes dreams just don't come true

We wait to reap what we are due

Well think about it Kat... that crawl you italicisied could be crawl, crawling, crawled, crawls etc... and that's not by the rules, it's crawl that we were supposed to find

Thanks for the Book Club post!

Note to god by jojo

Give us the strength to make it through

Help us find love cause love is over due

And it looks like we haven't got a clue

Need some help from you

Grant us the faith to carry on

Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone

Cause it seems like so much is goin wrong

On this road we're on

[Guest]

Trying this again: Let's see if I can get it right this time.

Carrie Underwood - So Small

I know it's hard on a rainy day

You want to shut the world out

And just be left alone

But don't run out on your faith

[Chorus]

'Cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing

Is just a grain of sand

What you've been up there searching for forever

Is in your hands

When you figure out love is all that matters after all

It sure makes everything else

Seem so small

[andromeda]

Um... the only song that comes to my mind is from

Britney Spears "Everytime"

Everytime I try to fly, I fall

Without my wings, I feel so small

I guess I need you, baby

And everytime I see you in my dreams

I see your face, it's haunting me

I guess I need you, baby

Ramones - Teenage Lobotomy

Lobotomy, lobotomy, lobotomy, lobotomy!

DDT did a job on me

Now I am a real sickie

Guess I'll have to break the news

That I got no mind to lose

All the girls are in love with me

I'm a teenage lobotomy

Slugs and snails are after me

DDT keeps me happy

Now I guess I'll have to tell 'em

That I got no cerebellum

Gonna get my Ph.D.

I'm a teenage lobotomy

(I was going to do lobotomy, but figured that might've been a bit hard. )

Cerebellum is the little brain in Latin... what are the chances to find that??

Lobotomy would have been easier!

OK I googled one

Zachery Quinn "Cerebellum Slip"

Cerebellum slip

And then your spine will drip,

Straight down to your fingertips.

Feel your words like braile on your skin

You're so pale and thin.

Collecting your chips to cash in.

Root beer float down a river or stream.

Like some caramel dream,

Nothing is quite as it seems.

In a world of ice cream,

Where the people are mean

They won't leave you alone,

And the cold air chills you to the bone.

Haven't listened to SlipKnot since I was 11.. Don't judge me...

SlipKnot - Duality

I push my fingers into my eyes...

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...

But it's made of all the things I have to take...

Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside...

If the pain goes on...

Aaaaaaaah!

I have screamed until my veins collapsed

I've waited as my time's elapsed

Now, All I do is live with so much fate

I've wished for this, I've ladyed at that

I've left behind this little fact:

You cannot kill what you did not create

I've gotta say what I've gotta say

And then I swear I'll go away

But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise

I guess I'll save the best for last

My future seems like one big past

You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice

I push my fingers into my eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

If the pain goes on,

I'm not gonna make it!

Put me back together

Or separate the skin from bone

Leave me all the Pieces, then you can leave me

alone

Tell me the reality is better than the dream

But I found out the hard way,

Nothing is what it seems!

I push my fingers into my eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside

If the pain goes on,

I'm not gonna make it!

All I've got...all I've got is insane...

All I've got...all I've got is insane...

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

I push my fingers into my eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside

If the pain goes on,

I'm not gonna make it!

All I've got...all I've got is insane...

All I've got...all I've got is insane...

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

All I've got...all I've got is insane!

"No Buses" Arctic Monkeys

An ache in your soul is everybody's goal

To get what they can't have

That's why you're after her

And that's why she's after him

But sayin' it wont change a thing

And they'll realize that it wont change a thing
