Is that, eh, innuendo?
Can you make me a cambric shirt,
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme,
Without any seam or needlework?
Fraid not. Fresh out of thyme, you see.
Whatever became of Hubert?
Became a hunter and rode away.
Who is Sylvia?
What is she?
That all our swains commend her?
I think I saw her in a wet dream , but I'm not certain .
If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I see you ?
Because I'm not the one you're looking for...
Angie, angie, when will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, angie, where will it lead us from here?
The forecast calls for this fog to lift by tomorrow. You should be able to see the road sign then.
So 10:30 the other night I go out into my yard, and there's the Worster kid looking up in a tree. I say "what're you lookin' for?" Says "I'm lookin' for my burrow owl." I say "jumpin' Jesus on a pogo stick! Everybody knows that the burrow owl lives in a hole in the ground! Why do you think they call it a burrow owl anyway?!"
He said. Sumbuddy burrowed it from me dad!
Oh where, oh where has my little dog gone?
Not a clue.
If, however, you wish to mount a rescue search:
Send the Marines
Where's the question?
Where is the goat? It's time for milking
The goat is recovering from a fight with an elephant.
What else is there?
Der Abwasch!
Will you come to the bower o'er the free boundless ocean
Where the stupendous waves roll in thundering motion,
Where the mermaids are seen and the fierce tempest gathers,
To loved Erin the green, the dear land of our fathers."
Will you come, will you, will you, will you come to the bower?
Thank you for the kind invitation, but I get very seasick...
Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together,
to pull wild mountain thyme, all around the purple heather,
will ye go, lassie, go?
Lassie goes home, not with you, you little pervert... ;)
Who let the dogs out?
Nobody. They finally developed opposable thumbs and got the door open on their own. Now we're all screwed.
Who do that voodoo that you do so well?
The Master of Puppet does that...
Where is the what if the what is in why?
Wheels of why whereing in the who.
Wha wadna fecht for Charlie?
Wha wadna draw the sword?
Wha wadna up and rally
At the royal Prince's word?
I like Princess Diana's approach better. (a true Stewart, I had such hopes... :'( )
Will ye no come back again?
Will ye no come back again?
better loved ye couldna be,
Will ye no come back again?
Old folk song, right? Sounds like it to me.
While I'm clocking in as a temp boy look at them run
It is too late now to affect the whole world, or is it just dated now?
They could care less who invaded now.
Really am I silly with the dreams of the milli'?
Better avoid Milli Vanilli.
What shall I call
My dear little dormouse?
Eek-a-_____?
What kind of fool am I
That never fell in love?
Sorry to hear that you've never fallen in love, it's a beautiful feeling, you should try in once. I fall in love every two or three minutes... :P
Where's your head at?
Perched on top of my neck, in the traditional place, thankfully.
Who's next?
It could be anyone.
Bad boys, bad boys
Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do
When they come for you?
Time to polish that old battleaxe again
Give them an experience of pain.
Which is the bow that has no arrow?
And what is an arrow without a bow?
Who shot the go go dancer?
The one who also shot Cock Robin
"What's the news? What's the news?
O my bold Shelmalier,
With your long-barrelled gun of the sea?
Say what wind from the sun
Blows his messenger here
With a hymn of the dawn for the free?"
News of Swine Flu is not my idea of a Hymn.
Who knows where the time goes?
We cant return, we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
Shall we dance?
Let's dance! Put on your red shoes and dance the blues...
After all this is gone,
Who'd you rather be
The Beatles or the Rolling Stones?
"I'd rather be dead than wet my bed." -Harry Nilsson
How can people be so heartless?
How can people be so heartless?
How can people be so cruel?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold.

Not seen this elsewhere on here (apologies if I missed it). This is your opportunity to help answer some of those troubling questions that have appeared in song over the years. Give the Lyric and the next person answers the question (wittily or accurately) and poses another teaser from song. To get you started.....
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Hey Pieces! Yer fergot ter put in a new lyrical questshun...
Arrrgh!!! Me hedde be bowed in shayme, agin. :-[
Oi be suckin at thee gaymes threads.

Where were you when I needed you?
"Here I am baby, signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours!"
