Going out now, I'll be back later to check the shame at you having missed so many easy lyrics.

I hope coffee's not headed for her bath. This thread seems fuller than I last remember it.

Midge, better get yourself ready just in case....

The other Fool singer was Elke Brooks. I prefer Chris Rea.

Your lyrics
They're meant to be. When you see the lyrics to the whole song, you'll see what a cynical commentary the whole song is. ( I actually sound like I know what I'm talking about there)

I'll copy and paste the outstanding ones onto coffee's new thread in a bit.

Still quite a lot of space left on this one though.

I guess it'll keep needtoknow busy. Good for a girl to have a hobby!
