” I broke you like a cigarette that I busted on the day I quit. But now that I’ve been drinking , I’m out of smokes and I wish that I had it” I’m not sure if those are even the right lyrics but that is what is sounds like.

From the moment you said
Why haven’t you kissed me yet
I knew I’d wipe that
Paint from your lips

Moon yellow and bright.

As I was walking that ribbon of highway,
I saw above me that endless skyway:
I saw below me that golden valley:
This land was made for you and me.

Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what it takes, She said “I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong, play the song with the funky break.”

That’s all I can remember. The lyrics are pretty darn weird and hard to remember…..

Go cart Mozart was checking out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside, and little Hurly Burly came by in his curly whirlie and asked me if I needed a ride.

Likeradar's avatar

Can you tell me one thing you remember about me
And have you seen me lately
I remember me, all the little things that make up a memory…
I guess I thought someone would notice
I thought someone would say something if I were missing
Well can’t you see me?
Come on color me in

God, I sound depressed.

@blondsjon- Yoko’s contribution ruined that second song you referenced.

Blondesjon's avatar

@AstroChuck…Yoko Ono is indeed demon spawn but how was Bungalow Bill ruined for you?

AstroChuck's avatar

Just than one line she sings, “but when he looked so fierce” ruins it for me.

Blondesjon's avatar

@AstroChuck…I consider myself a pretty decent Beatles fan but I did not know that. Thanks for the nugget.

oh yeah, thanks for ruining the song for me too
