Guess the song!

Ya, we ripped off Jampy

Cheech and Chong?

Ok... this thread has been idle for a bit, so I'm going to throw a new song out.

They do it on camber sands
They do it at Waikiki
Lazing about the beach all day
At night the crickets creepy
Squinting faces at the sky
A Harold Robbins paperback
Surfers drop their boards and dry
And everybody wants a hat

Chorus:
But behind the Chalet
My holiday's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
****** ******* **** *** *****

Shrinking in the sea so cold
Topless ladies look away
A he-man in a sunken shower
Shelters from the rain
You wish you had a motor boat
To pose around the harbor bar
And when the sun goes out to bed
You hook it up behind the car

Chorus:

Two fat ladies window shop
Something for the mantlepiece
In for bingo all the nines
A panda for sweet little niece
The coach drivers stand about
Looking at a local map
About the boy he's gone away
Down to the next door's caravan

Chorus:

Pulling Mussels From A Shell - The Squeeze!

Cool, an old favorite! 10 minutes to answer. Do I win a prize?!

My respect and admiration for your taste in music!

The floor is yours SVL! ude:

[sunvalleylaw]

LOL! That was an old sing along in the car song for me. I'll come up with one tonight!

[sunvalleylaw]

Ok, here's one:


Through sixty-six and seven they fought the Congo war
Fingers on their triggers, knee-deep in gore
For days and nights they battled the Bantu to their knees
They killed to earn their living and to help out the Congolese

Good on ya, and you just missed my time. You're up!

[just strum]

Good on ya, and you just missed my time. You're up!

I haven't even come close to any of the other lyrics that have been posted and I wouldn't have gotten this one, but a coworker was talking about the song earlier this week. When you posted the lyrics I did a double take.

Ok, here goes and will probably be quick.

I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything I ever said
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great lovers will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
My life has been extraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but I'm forever broken

[oldguy]

Smashing Pumpkins?
Dammit, I can't remember the song title.....

[just strum]

I'll give you a clue - begins with an M and sometimes there are people you would like to put one on.

I know I'm probably breaking the rules, but I want to keep this going.

I was thinking that after 48 hours (or some set time frame) that the person divulge the song if no one guesses it and post a new one - sort of a way to keep the thread active. Just throwing it out there.

[sunvalleylaw]

Ok Strum, you made that too easy. I don't even know much Smashing Pumpkins, but googled Smashing Pumpkins, Muzzle to come up with the answer. ;-)

[Spudman***]

Google not allowed.

[sunvalleylaw]

Oops you are right. Ok, JustStrum, fire out a re-do.

[Big_Rob]

Heres a good one

I recall the day I took you to a baseball game
You brought along your baby doll and half its' baby things
We sat there a-playin' house, while the Dodgers played the Braves
And ev'ryone in the bleachers, looked at us as if to say.

Let's go with Rob's - I'll throw one out during a lull because I will never get back up to bat again - it was pure luck.

Anyone have a comment about my suggestion for a time limit or is it lame

[Spudman***]

We'll get back to you on that.

[Big_Rob]

I think 48 hours is long enough, or until someone answers it maybe a couple of posts down works for me as well.
