[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Ok folks here we go again!

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

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Yes, Honey.

Can't interrupt while I'm talking
Or they'll confiscate all your guitars
And Catch 22 says if I sing the truth
They won't make me an overnight star

70s

Quality, quality track.

The Specials... Don't call me scarface?

@shinynewapple2020

Possibly Captain and Tenealle but no idea where I got that from

Spot on @shinynewapple2020. 👍🏼

You get under my skin
I don't find it irritating

1970s

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear

70s

@NeedToKnow101

I've been living through changes And I could swing for you I can see the veins in my hands Are showing through

1980 - singer was my 4th ever crush

That's the lovely Julian Cope's Teardrop Explodes and Treason

I've been told that you've been bold
With Harry, Mark and John
70s

Under my skin one is called Another Planet, I think. A punky type song, but not sure who sang it.

@TwigTheWonderKid - correct And I agree on Julian Cope's loveliness. I was so in love with him, I used to fantasise that we were married . He is one of a kind!

@TwigTheWonderKid

I've been told that you've been bold With Harry, Mark and John 70s

This is Lou Reid.

Is the called satellite of love? Or just satellite

Of course it's teardrop explodes! And I agree about julian cope.

Needtoknow - yes to the specials. But it's called gagsters

Gangsters.

Gah!

Yes @VictoriousSockPuppet it is called Satellite of Love, well done.

Baby
I wanna keep my reputation
I'm a sensation
You try me once, you'll beg for more
70s

Photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at sixty-six
He thinks of all the lips that he licks
And all the girls that he's going to fix
70s

@TwigTheWonderKid

Baby I wanna keep my reputation I'm a sensation You try me once, you'll beg for more 70s

Is this yes sir, I can boogie?

I don't know the singer's name though

Those next lyrics are GRIM!

I was going to put up lyrics from john Wayne is big leggy by hazey fantazy (sp) on an earlier thread.
I just couldn't do it.... every single line is sooooo politically incorrect. Absolutely awful.

I brought my baby
A red radio
He said he loved me but he had to go

70s

70s

Is this On my Radio?

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
1970s

It is indeed Yes Sir I Can Boogie, by Baccara.

The other one is less shocking than those selected lyrics make it seem, I think.

Just Googled the John Wayne lyrics. Never mind politically incorrect, they are totally shit, too!

@NeedToKnow101- London Calling- The Clash

First, they take your pride
Turn it all inside
And then you realise
You've got nothing left to lose

80's

You choose your leaders and place your trust,
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust.

1980

@Fleamaker123-The Mighty Wah!
