Put up a line or two from a song for people to guess.

For example:

Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I cant see you

It used to be so easy living here with you You were light and breezy and I knew just what to do Now you look so unhappy And I feel like a fool
Is it too late baby, not sure who by?

We're not bad people
We're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody but we do as we please

The safety dance? It rings a bell, probably wrong

CoffeeBeansGalore · 20/06/2020 14:20

@Fleamaker123 no, sorry

CoffeeBeansGalore · 20/06/2020 14:21

A few more lines

When the weather's fine
We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do

Honeyroar · 20/06/2020 15:05

@coffee I think that’s ABBA. Just not sure which. Does your mother know?

Honeyroar · 20/06/2020 15:06

No, it’s Dancing Queen!

CoffeeBeansGalore · 20/06/2020 15:12

Dancing Queen. Well done 😊

CoffeeBeansGalore · 20/06/2020 15:36

So don't misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
Oh, you put the spark to the flame
I've got your heart in my sights

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 20/06/2020 16:30

I don’t think anyone got this earlier. Should I add more lyrics?

Got no reason for coming to me and the rain running down

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 20/06/2020 16:32

Yes. Well done. V quick.

Yours isn't jumping out at me, but someone else might get it. The day is young

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Ok. Got too stuck in the 70s yesterday. How about

So in your broken home he broke all your bones
Now you're taking it time after time

No one got this yet
