4.) "Now we're going steady, been together several weeks,"

6.) "I never knew time could pass so slow. I wish I never met you oh, then I could bear to let you go,"

16.) "I can't change my mind, I knew all time, that she'd go. That's a choice I made long ago"

19.) "You ask me if I'm happy here, no doubt about it. You ask me if my love is clear, want me to shout it?"

Hi.

Just looking back 16.) is a lttle bit of a cock up. I thought it was a hit in the UK but although it didn't chart here it reached number 4 in the States, so that one is particulary tough.

Clues might be needed so sorry about that, off back to slave over the Aga.

(shines light around, taps random song generator, fires up the coffee machine.)

Hello.

Its back.

1.) "I feel so dirty when they start talking cute. I wanna tell her that I love her but the point is probably moot,"

2.) "What's that on the railway line? Looks like my old brown shoe."

3.) "Jenny was sweet. She always smiled for the people she'd meet,"

4.) "I wandered out in the world for years, while you just stayed in your room,"

5.) "Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet?"

6.) "And I'm turning to the horoscope and looking for the funnies, when I feel someone watching me and so I raise my head,"

7.) "Every night, every day, just to be there in your arms,"

8.) "Clothes always fit you, life is a pop of a cherry,"

9.) "Bring your flowered hat, we'll follow the trail marked on your fathers map,"

10.) "So for a while we conducted experiments, in an apartment by the river road. And we found out that the two things we put together had a bad tendency to explode,"

11.) "Hold tight, wait til the party's over. Hold tight, we're in for nasty weather,"

12.) "Beat me up with your letters, your walk-out notes"

13.) "But skip the hearts and flowers, skip the ivory towers,"

14.) "You think you're such a psycho but you ain't so bad. Get what you want with looks like that,"

15.) "Help me out here all my words are falling short. And there's so much I wanna say,"

16.) "You let all my friends come over and meet. You were so strange. You didn't have the decency to change the sheets,"

17.) "You want a percentage but I'm the fool paying the dues,"

18.) "I never said I was a Stool Pigeon, never said I was diplomat. Everyone is under suspicion but you don't wanna hear about that,"

19.) "She's so pretty. Her hair is a mess. We all love her. To that we confess."

20.) "And the Sunday sunshine shines down on San Francisco Bay and you realise you can't make it anyway,"

Bit 80's centric but hey.

Enjoy.
