80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread5

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Hello you lovely lot, thread 5 here we go!

Post a few lines from a song, 70s, 80s, 90s & let us guess the singer & the title.

It is. Well done.

The freedom that you wanted bad
Is yours for good
I hope you're glad

@KatherineJaneway Paula Abdul, Straight Up

@Fleamaker123 Beautiful South? Not sure of title though.

Yes @CoffeeBeansGalore

The beautiful south one is a little time.

Can't think of any of the other outstanding ones atm

Jesus went out for a walk with his mother.
The scribes and the Pharisees plotting hugger mugger.
They locked him up and they threw away the key.
He said why is everybody picking on me!

Changing her colours she’s off to the shore
She rides the soul train and he fights the law.

(both 80s)

The second one is spandau ballet. Lifeline???

The first one isn't this, but it's the last line. Reminds me of a really old song. No idea who sang it. But might be called charlie brown????

It's so sad
When you're young

80s. Feel I'm being really mean, not giving you much to go on there, but the next line would give it away faaaaaar too quickly, and you lot are amazing, so 🤷‍♀️

1980s
Completely untouchable, I knew no surprises
Wrapped in a cold world of my own devising

And I've not forgiven you, honey for describing my lyrics as rank

Oh my god! I only posted once on thread 4..now you're on thread 5! Can't keep up..

Oh sorry it's the same thread 😂😂😂 I thought that one had filled up and you'd gone on to the next one 😂😂.. I'd better think of one then..

I got a taste of paradise
I'm never gonna let it slip away
I got a taste of paradise
It's all I really need to make me stay

Late 1970s

Friday night

Everybody drinks Martini
And talks about clothes and the latest styles.
1970s

Everybody drinks Martini dry,
And talks about clothes and the latest styles.
Where did the word go? Damm phone!

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies it was lifeline.

Lol at you sulking about your lyrics being rank. In my defence it was my birthday and I’d had a lot of Prosecco (apt!).

“Friday night I crashed your party, Saturday I said I’m sorry...”. Billy Joel’s Lunatic?
