Okay, it's been a whlie since the last time I did a lyrics thing here, and hopefully all my new friends can help me to make sure that this time I actually get some answers this time.
So here's the deal: below are lyrics from ten songs. You are, without aid of an Internet search engine, to identify both the artist and the name of the song. People reading this on the .org should post their answers in the .forum; people reading this on LJ can just reply to this message.
1. Only twenty-four hours in a day, only twelve notes a man can play.
2. And he placed her, unclothed, long long long-legged, on top of the family tree.
3. Some say it's like a beautiful flower, some say it is a terrible power.
4. Maybe I'm just the horizon you run to when she has left you and me here alone on the floor.
5. You were the brightest light that burned too soon in vain.
6. Hey, there's Carol Fango before she sliced her wrists.
7. I want to be brave, I want to live without fear, but it's hard to navigate when I can't even hear.
8. And the bouncer is a sumo wrestler, creampuff casper milquetoast, and the owner is a mental midget with the IQ of a fencepost.
9. I use public toilets and I piss on the seat, I walk around in the summertime saying "How about this heat?"
10. I wish I was someone else, then it'd be harder to hurt myself.
You have until next Tuesday to answer. Good luck.
