Lyrics Challenge Game

Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream
Loving every second, every moment, every scream

I've been waiting so long to sing my song
And I've been waiting so long for this thing to come
Oh, I've been thinking so long, I was the only one
And I can stand here strong and thin
And I can laugh when this thing begins
God, I feel so strong, I feel so strong
I'm so strong, I feel so strong
I feel so strong, so strong
God, I feel so strong, I am so strong
So strong, I feel so strong, I feel so strong
I feel so strong, I feel so strong, I feel so strong
Yes I'm strong, feel so strong, feel so strong

*1973

Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate

Two jumps in a week
I bet you think that's pretty clever
Don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle
Watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition
Kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror
You're turning into something you are not

1995

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway

They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else
Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space

But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on

1971

I found a woman
I felt I truely loved
She was everything
I'd ever been dreaming of

I took her home to mama
Mama wanted to see my future bride
Well she looked at us both
Then she called me to her side

But I didn't listen to mama
I went straight to the church
I just couldn't wait to have a little girl of mine
When I got off from work
The preacher was there
So was my future bride
He looked at us both and then he called me to his side

Hi!
Nice to see ya
C'mon in, c'mon in
Sorry the place is a mess

Need an ashtray?
Drink some coffee, some coffee
I know you've been upset

What I mean is
Maybe a part of your problem
Is simply, you were teased

I know what you'd like
But the good stuff promised
Is hard fought and not for free

Get tough, don't be so patient
Get smart, head up, shoulders straight
Since when is it a disaster?
If the "S" on your cape is a little frayed?

What's a girl to do?
Born to shop? No!
Pretty victories
What's a girl to do?
Scream and screw? No!
Pretty victories

Go out jumpin'
With your dumplin', your dumplin'
Go wheelin' with your pet

Never worry
Even a bit, just a bit
If there're any good ones left

Use your credit
At the boybank, the boybank
If those you've bounced, you've broke

Spit the F-word
Like a shotgun, a shot gun
If they can't take a joke!

Get tough, don't be so patient
Get smart, head up, shoulders straight
Since when is it a disaster?
If the "S" on your cape is a little frayed?

What's a girl to do?
Born to shop? No!
Pretty victories
What's a girl to do?
Scream and screw? No!
Pretty victories

Starting to see what I mean?

Nice things
Nice things
Oh oh oh, so many nice things
As your biggest fan I want you to have them

Nice things
Nice things
Oh oh oh, so many nice things
Don't mean nothing, if they're dumping
Things that sting on you!
Don't take that, honey!

Don't work your buns off
For a fool, for a fool
Who can barely tie his shoes

Don't answer phone calls
That old boyfriend, old boy friend
Would love to see you lose

You don't need that
When your girlfriend, your girlfriend
Falls for all these creeps

Can you tell her?
Take the cure, take the cure
Love is obsolete? Maybe!

Get tough, don't be so patient
Get smart, head up, shoulders straight
Since when is it a disaster?
If the "S" on your cape is a little frayed?

Starting to see what I mean?

Sure, stop by anytime
Will yesterday be better?
I think you'll do just fine!
