80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 10

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Ok folks here we go again for Thread 10!!!

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.

@SingingBabooshkaBadly. That doesn't sound good. Welcome back!

A other one for coffee!

If they were me and I was you
Would you have liked a present too?

1980s

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Pantry, don't tell the others, but I'm all gob no substance. But don't tell thus lot that. Once they smell weakness...

My lips are sealed

@shinynewapple2020 😁 Thank you. Happy birthday, Altered Images

Pantry:

It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play

80s

That’s Our Lips are Sealed.

Haven’t caught up with the thread yet. What on earth is going on between Victorious and Pantry..?

Fun Boy Three - our lips are sealed

We could tell you Babooshka but then we'd have to swear you to silence ....

Fucking pantry got credited with a song I got first

Baby, let me make you a statue
To stand outside the council house
To stand as a reminder of what you are
And what you want to be

eighties

Well done Ruudgull

(See, Babooshka . Like that!)

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Fucking pantry got credited with a song I got first

Ultra Slow broadband + the need to sing is to blame

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Well done Ruudgull

(See, Babooshka . Like that!)

Whispers I am Ruud Gullit so now I've stolen from Babooshka as well.

Our lips are sealed, pantry!

whispers back. Actually, I already knew that cos you've had the same NC fail before one an earlier thread, but I wouldn't out you

Victorious is one of yours spice up your life by spice girls?

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Ok. I'll give you more from the two of mine that are outstanding.

The first one is really hard, because apart from the song title, the lyrics literally are:-
He'll open doors
He'll open doors
He'll open doors
He'll open doors

He'll open doors
He'll open doors
He'll open doors

He'll open doors
He'll open doors
He'll open doors

So try these. Different song, same artist, same album.

In my dreams I'm dying all the time
Then I wake it's kaleidoscopic mind
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie
So this is goodbye?
This is goodbye

And adding to

Don't call me scarface

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

I can't believe no one got this.

But it's moby and why does my heart feel so bad

Yes, ellie
Well done x

(I should probably credit pantry)

@VictoriousSockPuppet

Well done Ruudgull

(See, Babooshka . Like that!)

So mean, after the week I’ve had too...

Sorry Babooshka

Or if that is preferable

P.s. excellent flouncing

🎉🎂🍷Happy Birthday Coffee!!🎉🎂🍷

@shinynewapple2020 I can’t find your guess for mine, what did you say? Pantry was correct with the group OMD.

Honey
The lyrics 'touch you once, touch you twice , I won't let go at any price' are from If you leave .

(Posted this morning )

Thank you @Honeyroar 😊

I feel that honeyroar's attempts to suck up to coffee by selling lots of coffee have had a negative impact on her commitment to this thread.

I trust this will be noted come the awards event

still sulking that I guessed the wrong song

Who would like the awards night next weekend?

If it's a yes we need categories & nominations

Ahh yes you were right Shiny. 👍

Sending a big hug/squeeze to the old sock hoping she cheers up!😘. I will be back with a vengeance as soon as I get everything I need to do done before BA boots me out at midnight tomorrow! In the meantime this 80s track sums up how the process has driven me mad...

Get up every morning just to put your makeup on
The wardrobes full of useless clothes, your winter coats are gone
The jackal pack are feeding
The motorway sweeps down
The council tries to bribe the rich
Just to stay in town
__
Get me out of this place
__
Get me out of this trap
