Baby, I could never steal you from another
It's such a shame our friendship had to end

CoffeeBeansGalore · 13/07/2021 17:01

Let 'em say we're crazy
I don't care about that

Is this the one used in Mannequin?

Can I take you to a restaurant
That's got glass tables
You can watch yourself
While you are eating

RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat · 13/07/2021 17:05

Give me more
Than one caress
Satisfy this

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark

If you jump into your bed
Quickly cover up your head

A hit many times, I think. Possibly endlessly. But the first one was 70s

Here in our paper houses,
Stretching for miles and miles
Old men in stripy trousers rule the world with plastic smiles
80s

Seems so unfair when there's love everywhere but there's none for me

I think this has been a hit for about 5 or 6 different people across several decades.
but as I consider the song woeful, and hate every version, I don't even care.

Name them all and get no points anyway!

Sits alone and bends his cane Same old backsides again
Is that either Pink Floyd or Madness? Can't be bothered too think. To hungry
