from "Schism" by Tool
I know the pieces fit cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire
To point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication
next word: piece(s)

I Fall To Pieces - Patsy Cline

from "Turn the Page" by Bob Seger, and covered by Metallica

All strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you,
As you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you,
But you just want to explode

I think it's funny how this and the other music threads make me think of songs I haven't heard in years....like this one:
from "Nutbush City Limits" by Bob Seger (originally by Tina Turner about her hometown, but Seger's version is the one I remember - from when I was about in 5th grade, and my best friend's older brother used to blare his "Beautiful Loser" 8-track constantly).
Got to watch out for the police
Drivin' through Nutbush
Got to watch out for the police
If you're drivin' through Nutbush
Watch out for the police
Watch out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
Keep an eye out for the police
An eye out for the police
next word: keep

I'm Tired - Madeline Kahn (Blazing Saddles)
Stage door johnnies constantly surround me
They always hound me
with one request
Who can satisfy their lustful habit?
I'm not a rabbit!
I need some rest!

Sick and tired of love
I've had my fill of love
from below and above
Tired
Tired of being admired
Tired of love uninspired
Next: Request

It's on the tip of my brain, but not quite there - one line from a song is all I've got, and for the life of me, I can't remember who sang it...or even if I've got the words right.
Hopefully, it'll come to me during the day....or someone else will post something.

I've got one, Gams...
from "Sing Me Back Home" by Merle Haggard
The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
'Let my GUITAR-playing friend do my REQUEST. Let him...
CHORUS:
Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive
Take me away and turn back the years
Sing Me Back Home before I die
next: guitar

Siren to the rescue! I never did think of that song, though another one did come to mind - I'm surprised it didn't pop into my head immediately; I hear it often enough from Hubs. Sometimes, when the girls and I are having "a chick fest" and get to jabbering without taking a breath, Hubs will walk by and whisper a line from a 10cc song....'requesting quiet, requesting quiet'.
from "Ziggy Stardust" by David Bowie
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly,
And the Spiders from Mars.
He played it left hand
But made it too far
Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band
next word: far

The difference between generations:
Young lady to grandmom: I had an affair.

Affair Of The Heart - Rick Springfield
Hungry to touch, I'm eager to please
Out of control and I hand you the keys
Every night I am burning to make love to you
But don't try to tell me you think it's all physical
It goes much deeper than that
You ought to know it's an Affair Of The Heart

Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore ~ John Prine
While digesting Reader's Digest
In the back of a dirty book store,
A plastic flag, with gum on the back,
Fell out on the floor.
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside
Slapped it on my window shield,
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
I'd tell her how good I feel.
But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven anymore.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
next word: flag

Dead Skunk ~ Loudon Wainwright
Crossin' the highway late last night
He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right
He didn't see the station wagon car
The skunk got squashed and there you are!

Dead skunk in the middle of the road
You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road
Stinkin' to high Heaven!
