Come on, someone who has a clue must be playing this Friday afternoon game with us? I've never heard the song before, I'm almost positive.

Its called
One thing leads to another by the fixx.
It was classic.
How easy should I make it?
Okay this is funny,
"I got a little change in my pocket"
no that sucks, how about
"I don't want to go to work, I want to stay in, get things done."

That's the intro though,
I don't want to out, I want to stay in, get things done.

I catch the paperboy, when things don't really ??? (I don't know)
Still standing in the wind, but I never wave bye'bye,
But i try,i try

OK, OK, so we're looking at Modern Love by none other than Mr. Bowie. It took some time, though... I was in 80's the genre mode, not 80's the time period. Here's one from the former:

In violent times, you shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white, they really, really ought to know.

Shout by tears for fears, too easy, I love the extended version though.

Here's an easy one from the latter,
Can't you see me standin here
I've got my back against the record machine.

Might as well: Jump. :) Don't remember who sang it though... Van Halen?

I prefer the former, mostly because I'm better at it, so here's another:

Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who writes the wrecking ball in two wild guitars

Hmm...

I was worried this one would be too easy.

I don't think I know any more of the words, the guy's a little hard to understand. Think trumpets. Ah forget it, it was Goody 2 shoes by adam ant.

You think you're a man, but you just couldn't see,
you weren't man enough to satisfy me.

Now that's classic 80s club music.

Nope, nothing. I wasn't in clubs in the 80s unfortunately. In lounges (well, one lounge) quite often, but that's about it.

Alright, now that we're out of 80's ones, lets try a much more recent and/or awesome band:

My best friend's a butcher
He has 16 knives

He carries them all over the town
At least he tries

He always took the time to speak with me

I don't know the name of the song either, but I want to see if anyone can get this,

Stronger than reason,
stronger than lies,
the only truth I know,
is the look in your eyes.

Well, I guess I should be happy that someone at least got the band. The song is called Roland, for those interested. I do believe it's Brackish Girl's turn to have a go, mostly because I don't have a clue where that's from, Carolynanna.... sounds familiar, though.

I don't know where BG is so I'll give the next line in the song,
Just like a car crash,
Just like a knife,
my favourite weapon,
is the look in your eyes.

You and Dean did the 80s, why don't we tackle the 90s?

"and the lady I feel maternal love for cannot look me in the eyes
but I see hers and they are blue and they cock and twitch and masterbate"

technically, this came out in the 80s, but it's a very 90s band.

They don't really sing it, one of them just says it during the song.
I'll give you a real lyric from the song,

Hands across the water, hands across the sky.

and that should do it.

through my cheatery I've determined that that is a Paul Mac song, and I am woefully unware of most of his catalogue. but the song in question is "Admiral Halsey". Since I cheated, you can go again. But make it Beatles! And have a go at my quote, if the mood strikes....

What's Admiral Halsey?
My song was Uncle Albert.
