Name That Tune: Classic Rock Lyrics --- One Toke Over the Line

[LiferJim]

Another theme

1. And whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow?

2. So we sailed on to the sun
Till we found the sea of green

3. Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday

4. Crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back
Cruising down the street
Waving to the girls

5. And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day? Hey

6. Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad

7. Take too long 'fore I found out
What people mean by down and out

8. When the miller told this tale
He said that her face at first just ghostly

9. Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenters’ wives

10. Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase

1. Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
7. Balck Dog - Led Zepplin
8. A Whiter Shade of Pale - Procol Harom

Is the theme colors?

[dfs]

9. Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenters’ wives

That's Dylan's "Tangled up in Blue."

My popular music knowledge runs from early 60’s to late 80’s. Sorry to you younger guys. I thought about making the list all “black” titles but thought I’d keep it all rainbow.

Is it Wichita line, Glen Campbell?

1979 to around 1999 for these 3. Nothing too special about these or the bands... just the last 3 on my "everything" playlist.

She had the face of an angel
Smiling with sin
A body of Venus with arms

My soul tickles
But this isn't even fun and games
My heart bleeds from the pleasures of the pain
My fuse is short and its lit like me I'm short
It's sketchy
It's getting hard to see
My heart bleeds believe it every dying breath
These people take and they take
Until there's nothing left

I'm so confused by the things I read, I need the truth
But the truth is, I don't know who to believe
The left say yes, and the right says no
I'm in between and the more I learn
Well, the less that I know

The first one is Touch To Much, AC/DC

Who is the subject of each of these song lyrics?

1. "He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day."

2. "She rules her life like a bird in flight. And who will be her lover? "

3. "I guess you could say she was a sex fiend. I met her in a hotel lobby, masterbating with a magazine."

4. "Do you remember when I mowed your lawn? Your mom came out with just a towel on. I could tell she liked me the way she stared, and the way she said, 'You missed a spot over there.' "

5. "You turned into a lover, and mother what a lover, you wore me out. All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning, kick me in the head."

6. "She's really keen. She's got electric boots, a mohair suit. You know I read in a magazine."

7. In the firelight, ... , you were humming to yourself and strumming your guitar. I could hear the distant drums and sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar."

You're very good at this.

Fountains of Wayne IIRC on Stacy's Mom

Oh duh, didn't realize the name of the band was right above this post. My daughter discovered that song a few months back and played it a bunch.

Anyone know #2 or #7 ? No answer to those yet.
