80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 12

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Here we go you lovely lot, Thread 11.

Post some lyrics of a song 70s, 80s, 90s (boundaries may be slightly pushed either way). State the decade & we will try to guess Artist(s) and song.

@FlouncerInDenial yes it is right beside you.

Can anybody guess the artist?

I never knew a guy who carried a mirror in his pocket
And a comb up his sleeve just in case
And all that extra-hold gel in your hair oughtta lock it
'Cause Heaven forbid it should fall outta place
1990s

@CoffeeBeansGalore That don’t impress me much - Shania Twain?

@CarnageAtTheGardenCentre Correct! Fancied posting an easy one 😄

When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door

80's

Angel in disguise
With your power of love
You just hypnotize
90's

@Fleamaker123
Young at heart - the Bluebells?

You take my hand and give me your friendship.
I'll take my time and send you my slow reply.
(80s)

Correct @ChaToilLeam 👍

You have reminded me coffee of how very entertained I was a couple of weeks ago when I put up a load of easy lyrics. The little frenzy that ensued kept me amused for quite a while. I must do that again soon

These three 70s ones are outstanding from a couple of days ago:

Up every evening 'bout
Half eight or nine
I give my complete attention
To a very good friend of mine

And so the story goes they wore the clothes
They said the things to make it seem improbable
Whale of a lie like they hope it was

Sittin' by the fire...
Radio just played a little classical music for you kids,
The march of the wooden soldiers
And you can hear Jack say...

I can put it in the bedroom
I can put it in the hall
I can put it in the bathroom
I can hang it on the wall
(70s)

Here I am a million miles away from home
The Indiana wind and rain cut through me
I’m lost and alone, chilled to the bone
(70s)

Telephone man? Woman with big blonde beehive singing - Marie Wilson?

Said it again but could I please rephrase it
Maybe I could catch a ride
I couldn’t really put it much plainer
But I’ll wait til you decide
(80s)

Correct Coffee. (Ooh laly laly!)

And I know I was wrong
when I said it was true
(80s)

I’m about to lose my self control
So come a little closer
No closer than that!
(80s)

And I looked round for a telephone
To say 'baby I won't be home'..
