[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.

American Girl - can’t type tonight!

It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss
Wouldn't you say?

1990s

@SingingBabooshkaBadly, yes, well done.

There's a rumour, goin' round the town
That you don't want me around

Love is like Oxygen, Sweet

Yes, it's over, the kids are gone
What's the use of tryin' to hang on?
Somewhere we lost the key..

70's

Yes, well done @Fleamaker123.

60s
There is a blue one who can't accept the green one
For living with a fat one trying to be a skinny one

70s
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim

80s
Used to go to dinner almost every night
Dancin' 'til I thought I'd lose my breath
Now it seems your dancing feet are always on my couch
Good thing I cook or else we'd starve to death - Ain't that a shame?

90s
We're all alone in a villa on the Rivera
That's in France on the south side in case you care

70s is Heroes, David Bowie.

I’m sure I know that 60s one, Needtoknow. This is maddening. I really want to google. Must resist...

70s is Heroes, David Bowie.
@SingingBabooshkaBadly - correct!

Sing the 60s one a bit like a skipping song; you definitely know it!

I know what you mean about the urge to Google; I have to metaphorically sit on my hands sometimes, to stop myself from googling

Need to know 80s one is Janet Jackson what have you done for me lately I think

No one got this from the last thread

Feel the silky touch of my caresses
They will keep you looking so brand new
Let me cover you with velvet kisses
I'll create a look that's made for you
1980s

What's the point in googling, though? We've all proved ourselves now. AĹL of us at one time or another have got ones no one else has. We've got nothing to prove There's no prize; it's an utterly pointless cheat.
There's no winners.

Although - ahem - there is one of us who has proved to be Victorious

@ellie1967

@VictoriousSockPuppet

All hail @VictoriousSockPuppet 🤣🤣🤣

Don't think anyone got this on e of mine from this morning so I'll add a bit more:

Plug into her electric cool
Where things bend and break
And shake to the rule
Talking fast couldn't tell me something
I would shed my skin for you
Talking fast on the edge of nothing
I would break my back for you
Don't know why, don't know why
Things vaporize and rise to the sky

80s

No idea whether this is right but I am going by the hint. Is the 60s one The Clapping Song by Shirley Ellis?

No, there’s no point at all in googling but sometimes I really want to because I know I know something but can’t remember it and if nobody else guesses it it just drives me mad. If I did crack and google I’d only do it to find out what it was. I wouldn’t claim it. I’m not a monster

@xsquared - nope!

Here's a bit more of my 80s one from earlier...

Crazy lady, livin' in a bag
Eatin' outta garbage pails, used to be a fag hag
Said she'll dance the tango, skip the light fandango
A Zircon princess seemed to lost her senses
Down at the peep show watchin' all the creeps
So she can tell her stories to the girls back home
She went to the city and got so so seditty
She had to get a pimp, she couldn't make it on her own

@xsquared

Your 80's one is Janet Jackson - What Have You Done For Me Lately

I'll be waiting at the station
We'll have time for coffee-flavored kisses
And a bit of conversation

60's

Last train to clarksville.
Is that the monkeys?
