80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 7

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Ok folks here we go again!

Post a few lines of lyrics & let the rest of us have a go at guessing the song & artist.
Songs from 70s, 80s 90s.

Yes! @ellie1967 🙌🏽

@Bluesheep8 - yes!

@NeedToKnow101
Oh yes of course! The fire's well and truly out

My mother told me, if I was goody.
That she would buy me a rubber dolly.
My aunty told her I kissed a soldier,
Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly.
(several versions but I know the one from 1980s)

Is that the Belle Stars, Coffee?

@CoffeeBeansGalore

Belle Stars?

Correct both. Belle Stars, the clapping song 😊

ahem

You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying
70s

Eagerly persuing all the latest fads and trends
60s

Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf, it was apricot
70s

Turn to the left
1980, unbelievably
(That's v hard, so from later in the same song)
We are the goon squad and we're coming to town

Fashion magazines say wear 'em
And you rush to obey like the women in a harem.
(Rhymes 😖)
60s, I think

All lyrics an homage to my beautiful new username (which it has taken me all day to remember how to do)

So useless to ask me why

Throw a kiss and say goodbye

I'll make it this time

I'm ready to cross that fine line

If I stand all alone, will the shadow hide the color of my heart
Blue for the tears, black for the night's fears
1988

Raise your arms up into the air
Now shake 'em
80s

Coffee - Everything but the girl - I don't wanna talk about it.

Boo I liked Prosecco! My I phone suggests Prosecco or coffee at the drop of a hat! All I have to do is type @p or @c Anyway I think the other sock puppet might be able to have you for untruths for that claim!

Fine name choice Sock. Dunno if I can remember them all while typing, but you have Bowie and Fashion, Carly Simon and You're So Vain, Roxy Music and Dance Away...and now I've run out of memory!

@CrepuscularCritter Yes, well done 👍😊

And I forgot your Kinky Boots...clearly the desired attire of every sock puppet.

@VictoriousSockPuppet 😁😁😁

And Sock is the last one Dedicated Follower of Fashion?

All you need is your own imagination
So use it that's what it's for (that's what it's for)
Go inside, for your finest inspiration
1990

Vogue, madonna, Coffee

@VictoriousSockPuppet In honour of you, correct 😁

@CrepuscularCritter

So useless to ask me why

Throw a kiss and say goodbye

I'll make it this time

I'm ready to cross that fine line

Deacon Blue, Steely Dan.

Ooh, your kisses
Sweeter than honey
And guess what?
So is my money

Late 60s

That's right, LibraryMiss. We've had a few Deacon Blue tracks on here, so I thought I'd add the band name inspiration.
