    Splunge left off with:


    Here comes a stringray
    There goes a manta ray
    In walked a jelly fish
    There goes a dogfish
    Chased by a catfish
    In flew a sea robin
    Watch out for that pirahna
    There goes a narwhal
    Here comes a bikini whale!


    I think that's from the B-52's Rock Lobster, towards the end of the song.

    There you stood a distant memory
    So good like we never parted
    Said to myself I knew you'd set me free
    And here we are right back where we started

    We are scanning the scene
    In the city tonight
    We are looking for you
    To start up a fight
    There is an evil feeling
    In our brains
    But it is nothing new
    You know it drives us insane

    I expect that to be tricky... or maybe not.

    The place is dead as heaven on a saturday night
    And my very close companion
    Gets me fumbling gets me laughing
    She’s a hundred but she’s wearing
    Something tight
    I lift my glass to the awful truth
    Which you can’t reveal to the ears of youth
    Except to say it isn’t worth a dime

    Leonard Cohen - Closing Time

    If I'm right then this will have to do:

    I am still right here
    what have I become?
    my sweetest friend
    everyone I know
    goes away in the end
    you could have it all

    I don't know why I'm waiting for confirmation, so here goes:

    I said the years had been a friend to her,
    And that her eyes were still as blue

    Yes. Leonard Cohen was correct. An older Canadian. Splunge, don't you know your own folks ?

    I'm actually not a big fan of Leonard Cohen - to me, his singing style sounds like droning.

    But I'm still hanging my head in shame.

    And I don't know dmc's lyrics, either.

    to continue with the lyrics:

    And in those eyes
    I don't know if I
    saw doubt or gratitude

    Oh, I know this one!

    It's Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture", right?

    ...or maybe not...

    Sorry guys, was out for most of the weekend. Clearly no Dan Fogelberg fans here - Same Old Lang Syne.

    Here's some new lyrics:

    To be a rock and not to roll
