Somehow some way I got to get you back.

Got to chip at your heart til I make it crack.

Sleepless Nights - Paris

With one grain of sand and a teardrop, we can build an ocean of love.

With two grains of sand and a rock, we can build a mountain of faith.

How about The Fantastic Four, Live Up To What She Thinks: " sorry if I sound conceited but I think I'm better than you. If you had this girl of mind I think that you'd be bragging too".

Rani has just reminded me of one of her faves;

Rosetta Johnson----Mine was Real(big up to D.P. For introducing me to this --Pigeon Club Bolton)

"We.ll probably spend the rest of our lives together but after what you,ve done--i could never love you again"

Got to be several lines from J J Callier - Pusherman (Jay - Cee 1001)

The Pusherman will use you like a dish rack,

The Pusherman will put a monkey on your back,

And everyday you'll have to give the monkey a snack.

So very true for those who have been there and lived throught it.

How you keeping Webby - easter holidays term time. laugh.gif .

Regards,

Nick.

AND WHEN I'VE BEEN AWAY YOU CAN'T SHOW THAT I'VE BEEN MISSED,

BE ON YOUR WAY LITTLE BOY, OHHHHHHHHHH, YOU'RE NOT THE GUY FOR ME...YOU'RE NOT THE GUY FOR ME."

ERNESTINE ANDERSON!!

NOT A BAD START....LOVED THAT SEQUENCE IN THE SONG FOR YEARS AND YEARS....MORE TO COME LATER, ME THINKS.

Must be a strong contender for the top:

"Tell her to keep that love, man, if that what she call it

she gonna mess around and make you an alcoholic - sorry about that!"

TOO LATE- WILLIAMS AND WATSON. top tune, you beat me to that one, my favourite bit is

"dont need know woman to help me starve to death-"

really good thread this one

One song that is cram packed with great lines is 'I'm The One' - Larry Williams.

"you mistook my kindness for a weakness...you must have thought I was a jelly fish..."

"when I work hard all day, bringing home all my pay...you sit around the house getting fat..."

"when I met you had patches on your britches..."

An actor's life is not for me, but I play the part so well,

though my heart is broken down inside, no one can ever tell,

they look at me, but they don't see this sad but lonely clown (now baby),

if they took a closer look, they'd see the smile was upside down,

if they could turn me over, their gonna see,

there's really two sides of me,

and I hurt all on the other side.........

Sheer poetry!
