31. Can't help it about the shape I'm in. I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin....
32. The blonde waitresses take their trays, they spin around and they cross the floor....
33. And your life is filled with much confusion, until happiness is just an illusion....
34. You give me just a taste so I want more, now my hands are bleeding and my knees are raw, now you've got me crawling, crawling on the floor....
35. In these days of changing ways, so called liberated days, a story comes to mind of a friend of mine....

43. This bed is on fire with passionate love, the neighbours complain about the noises above, but she only comes when she's on top....

58. Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played, Hollywood created a superstar and fame was the price you paid....
59. And all the roads we have to walk are winding, and all the lights that lead us there are blinding....
60. When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me....
61. The silicon chip inside her head gets switched to overload, and nobodys gonna go to school today, she's gonna make them stay at home....

74. Walk in silence, don't walk away in silence. See the danger, always danger....
75. And a British Rail poster read ‘Have an Awayday, a cheap holiday, do it today'....
76. The lights are on, but you're not home, your mind is not your own....
77. Childhood living, is easy to do. The things that you wanted, I bought them to you....
78. I can't believe the news today, I can't close my eyes and make it go away....
79. When I am king you will be first against the wall, with your opinions which are of no consequence at all....
80. Hey rainmaker come away from that man, you know he's gonna take away your promised land....
81. If God had a name, what you it be and would you call it to his face if you were faced with him....
82. Well c'mon darling, the stars are burning bright. C'mon now darling our luck is good tonight....
83. I use to be such a sweet sweet thing till they got a hold on me. I opened doors for little old ladies, I helped the blind to see....
84. All she saw was the silhouette of a gun, far away in the other side, he was shot six times by a man on the run, and she couldn't find how to push through....
85. I'm tired of playing all the team, seems like I don't get time out anymore. Oh what a change if we set the pace, face to face, no-one even tried to score....
86. I know my ex-boyfriend lies, oh he does it every time, it's just his permanent disguise....
87. I saw the rain dirty valley, you saw Brigadoon. I saw the crescent....
88. I should have known, it seemed too easy. You were there, and I was feeling blue....
89. A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw, delivered him wings “Hey look at me now....”
90. The village square is quiet, with the curfew still in force, the streets are even clear of dogs and horse. Like some evil bird of prey the scaffold spreads it's wings, the people build their fires and bolt their doors....
91. Life goes on day after day. Hearts drawn in every way....
92. Deffrwch Cymru cysglyd gwlad y gan, dwfn yw'r gwendid bychan yw y fflam....
93. Though the world is my oyster it's only a shell full of memories. And here by the Seine, Notre Dame casts a long lonely shadow....
94. I sit at my table, and wage war on myself, it seems like it's all, it's all for nothing. I know the barricades and I know the mortar in the wall breaks....
95. Wind was blowing, time stood still, eagle flew out of the night....
96. I never make an error, I never make a boob. I'm a glossy magazine, an advert on the tube....
97. I work very hard but I'm lazy. I can't take the pressure and it's starting to show....
98. I kissed her goodbye, said “All beauty must die”....
99. Mother mother, there's too many of you crying. Brother, brother, brother, there's far too many of you dying....
100. I never was a violent man, said the man at the bar with a drink in his hand. He's trying his best to understand, the cause of his dismay....
