Just seen this on TOTP2:

Saying his goodbyes again
Wheels are in his eyes again
Says if you see Jean now ask her
Please to pity me

70s

80s

I'm leaning on this bar listening to you sing
And your sad song rings in my ears and I start to cry.

FlouncerInDenial · 22/09/2020 19:59

@FlouncingBabooshka

When I saw you next day I really couldn't tell you 'coz you might go and tell your mother.

90s

Pulp. Do you remember the first time
FlouncerInDenial · 22/09/2020 20:00

I always thought that song was called baby's on the road again.

So glad someone else got it, or I'd have embarrassed myself 🤣

FlouncerInDenial · 22/09/2020 20:00

Correct with easy liver, Flea

FlouncerInDenial · 22/09/2020 20:01

FlouncerInDenial · 22/09/2020 20:02

Blur one got a while ago. Sorry

Love doesn't come in a minute
Sometimes it doesn't come at all

70's

Honeyroar · 22/09/2020 20:17

I thought it was Baby’s on the road again too!!

Love doesn’t come in a minute is Silly Love Songs by Paul McCartney.

Honeyroar · 22/09/2020 20:18

Fleamaker123 · 22/09/2020 20:20

Yes Honeyroar ✅
Easy Liver... another song that's got a new title from now on 😂

NeedToKnow101 · 22/09/2020 20:28

Easy liver!! 😂😂

She's an easy liver
She'll take your heart but you won't feel it

Offal song!

NeedToKnow101 · 22/09/2020 20:34

A man decides after seventy years
That what he goes there for
Is to unlock the door
While those around him criticize and sleep
