These are the first lines to the first 25 songs that came on my ipod when I put it on shuffle (well, almost the first 25 - I skipped over the Don't Know Much About History tracks and chapters from David McCullough's Truman biography). You (all four of you) tell me which songs the lines are coming from, and I strike the lyrics out when they've been correctly identified? Fun, right?
1. Some girls, they like candy, and others, they like to grind, I'll settle for the back of your hand somewhere on my behind.
2.
3. There is no one, nothing to see. The night is useless and so are we.
4. One day, it will happen. One day, one day it will all come true.
5. Open up you mind and let me step inside, rest your weary head and let your heart decide.
6. Inside this leaking submarine, the hull is closing in, the water is above my ankles
7.
8.
9. A compromise between honesty and lies to lead me past their disguise
10. Everything is gone but the echo of the burst of a shell and I'm stuck here waiting for a passing feeling.
11.
12.
13.
14. I got this feelin' that I've been here before.
15. It's alright, I won't commit, my friend. And if pay for your mistakes, you can break apology.
16.
17. I like to think I'm the mess you'd wear with pride.
18. Ladder man is climbing for a little sunlight; it doesn't even matter if I'm faking a good time.
19.
20. Who will shadow you home? The streets are getting crazy.
21.
22.
23.
24. I was just bony hands as cold as a winter pole. You held a warm stone out new flowing blood to hold.
25.
