Very random 80s song...

Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean, do doo yeah

This should give away my earlier one:

Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibies
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye

I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But honey now I do

Correct @CoffeeBeansGalore.

Emotions come, I don't know why
Cover up love's alibi
70s

I move a little closer to you
Not knowing quite what to do
And I'm feeling all fingers and thumbs
Spill my tea, oh, silly me
80s

xsquared · 07/08/2020 20:42

Only giving a couple of lines as these are very obvious.

  1. I am a man who will fight for your honour
I'll be the hero you're dreaming of.
  1. Don't drink, don't smoke. What do you do?
Subtle innuendo follows.
  1. Slowly now we begin to move.
Every breath I'm deeper into you.

All 80s

Is there etiquette on this game! ?

I often get a band or the next few lines about 6 hours before getting the answer , does it spoil other fun posting half an answer or not?

Honeyroar · 07/08/2020 20:49

No not at all midgebabe. At least I hope not because I forget the artist 50% of the time!
