[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.

Who do you know?
Where will you stay?
Big city life.

It’s not what they say.
(Reposted. 80s. Mainstream, you’ll all know it)

Flouncingbabooshka is one of yours victims by culture club

Honeyroar yours is really bugging me, I'm sure I know it..

@FlouncerInDenial 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s some funny that I missed the numbers in the name, and even with them they still haven’t come anywhere close to the points you’ve amassed!

I’ll give you another line Flea, that will probably give it away..

What is wrong in my life
That I must get drunk every night?

Oh it's Fine young Cannibals, I think it's Johnny come home??

Yes, we’ll done!

@FlouncerInDenial

I can't believe the only outstanding one I could get was chas and bloody dave!

Needtoknow, you were up late. Are you ok?

Flouncer, you are fooling no one; we all know Chas and Dave are your all time favourite band.

Shush, twig 🤫

It's not surprising at all honey. I'm just far and away the best on the thread. As the spreadsheet clearly demonstrates

She will play around and leave you
Leave you and deceive you

80s

I'm a professional cynic but my heart's not in it
I'm payin' the price of livin' life at the limit

90s

Those are Kim carnes Bette Davis eyes and house in the country by blur

Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
90's

Dico 2000 pulp flea

Wrong then right, ellie

Yes FlouncerInDenial 👍

Phil Collins Philip Bailey, Easy lover

@ellie1967 yes to Victims - surprised that one wasn’t pounced on instantly!

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

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

90s

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh
Seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the village square

70s

I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around
