80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 4

[ProseccoBubbleFantasies]

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

Red and green reflects the scene
Of a long-forgotten dream
There were princes and there were kings

Erm
You ought to know - Alanis Morrissete?

Still you brought a toy that can reach the places he never goes

(Gloriously filthy!)

Which one xsqured? (But none of mine)

@prosecco

Why did you choose to deceive me?
Was your plan just to kiss, fuck and leave me?

This one? But I guess not since you said it wasn't one of yours.

Oh, no. British band. Late 90s. Male singers.

I can see why you thought alanis

Is there someone else, or am I too familiar?
Was it when I said I wanted to have children?

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

(Gloriously filthy!)

Oops - nearly missed it! Pulp - Do you remember the first time?

Oh dear. Went to walk the dogs & have come back not knowing any! (Not lyrics 😁)

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

I get up when I want except on wednesdays when I'm rudely awakened by the dustmen

Parklife by blur

Late answer, slow phone...

I know my ex boyfriend lies
Oh he does it every time
It’s his permanent disguise

As another pitch shatters
Another little bit gets lost
What else really matters?
Oh, at such a cost

These are getting too difficult for me

I bet you’ll know mine. It was from a popular horror film in the 90s.

Time warp?

No that was 70s. I’ll give you a few more lines.

You drive too fast and
I smoke too much and
My heart is broken
But when I look at you you’re forgiven

(then carries onto the other lines I posted)

Can't think what yours is Honey, but coffee's is paul weller, which is funny cos so is one of mine above which hasn't been got yet.

Is it too hard potentially spanning several decades? Should we put the decade in as a clue?

Late 90s

@Honeyroar
Drop Dead Gorgeous... Can't remember artist

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

I write this now while I'm in control I'll chose the words and how the melody goes

Early 90s, but I think it's a cover of a much older song. The 90s album was quite popular though

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Red and green reflects the scene Of a long-forgotten dream There were princes and there were kings

70s

I think it has felt a little harder. I’ve not got a lot of the 70s, but you just know or you don’t, and it’s still fun IMO. Won’t hurt to hint when it was.

Agree it’s a good idea to reveal the decades.

Two of mine are still hanging around - both from the 90s.

Is there someone else, or am I too familiar?
Was it when I said I wanted to have children?

and:

Got no reason, coming to me like the rain running down
There’s no reason
And the same voice, coming to me like it’s all slowing down.

Here’s one from the 80s that you’ll all remember (I sound like a cheesy DJ!)

And now you tell me that you’re having my baby
I’ll tell you that I’m happy if you want me to
