After three full years of marriage,
It's the first time that you haven't made the bed
I guess the reason we're not talkin',
Tere's so little left to say we haven't said
1980s

So messed up, I want you here
In my room, I want you here

In the series, didn't they sing it at someone's funeral, Martha?

Cant think which character

MarthasGinYard · 26/09/2020 21:47

They sang it to their teacher when he was diagnosed with cancer I think.

It's a beautiful song

You tube it

I'm welling up now Blush

'Cold coolin' at a bar, and I'm lookin' for some action
But like Mike Jagger said, I can't get no satisfaction
The girls are all around, but none of them want to get with me
My threads are fresh and I'm lookin' def, yo, what's up with L-o-see?
The girls is all jockin' at the other end of the bar
Havin' drinks with some no-name chump, when they know that I'm the star
So I got up and strolled over to the other side of the cantina
I asked the guy, "Why you so fly?" he said,'

....

Good year for the roses, Elvis Costello

When the room is quiet
The daylight almost gone
It seems there's something I should know
Well I ought to leave but the rain it never stops
And I've no particular place to go
80s

ThatLibraryMiss · 26/09/2020 22:37

An outstanding one of mine that I can't believe no-one's got, now with extra lines:

On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they're messin' with a dreamer
I can laugh it in the face
Twist and shout my way out
And wrap yourself around me
'Cos I ain't the way you found me
And I'll never be the same

80s
