Was it that I never paid enough attention?
Or did I not give enough affection?
Not only will your answers keep me sane
But I'll know never to make the same mistake again

I'm too knackered
But very grateful for the fun

That's a comment not some random lyric

A little something for the weekend . . .

1 And the captain tackles with the problems of the hows and whys (70s)

2 At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive (80s)

3 Slowing they decend through a darkened sky (80s)

4 Spend my money going out, I’ve nothing in I’m left without (80s)

5 I'm just an average boy, you're more than average girl (80s)

6 If you want my love, come and get it girl (80s)

7 Yesterday away from you it froze me deep inside (80s)

8 There's a reason for the sun-shining sky (70s)

9 I get up when I want except on Wednesdays (90s)

10 Monday finds you like a bomb (90s)
