I'm taking a break from actual work, because working on my website is making me want to hurt something or someone. Oh, how I love group projects. But instead of me bitching about how much a loathe the end of the semester (with a fiery passion), here's the song meme that's been floating around LJ. So here we are, lyrics from 25 songs from my iTunes on shuffle.

1. I couldn't stop laughing, no I just couldn't help myself
See you messed up my mental health, I was quite unwell...

2. These people round here, wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces, so resigned to what their fate is
But not us, no not us, we are far too young and clever...

3. For the right price I can get everything
Slip into the car, go driving to the farthest star...

4. We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday in a bar that faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing their cars on their lunch break,
Hosing and scrubbing as best they can in skirts in suits...
"All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow, guessed by sagacious_c

5. You talk of freedom don’t you see
The only freedom that you’ll ever really know
Is written in books from long ago...

6. I'm thinkin about my doorbell,
When you gonna ring it, when you gonna ring it?
"My Doorbell" by The White Stripes, guessed by d4ni

7. You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness, watch it now, here he comes...
"When You Were Young" by The Killers, guessed by d4ni

8. Don't you think that it's kind of a drag
That you have go there to get milk in a bag?
"Oh, Canada" by Five Iron Frenzy, guessed by d4ni

9. She says she's no good with words, but I'm worse
Barely stuttered out a joke of a romantic stuck to my tongue..
"Dance, Dance" by Fall Out Boy, guessed by d4ni

10. You see right through me, and I can't hide
I'm naked around you, and it feels so right...

11. Can't explain all the feelings that you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel...

12. tomaranai mirai wo mezashite
yuzurenai negai wo dakishimete...
"Yuzurenai Negai" opening theme from Magic Knight Rayearth, guessed by d4ni

13. I'm having trouble trying to sleep
I'm counting sheep but running out
As time ticks by, and still I try
No rest for crosstops in my mind...
"Brain Stew" by Green Day, guessed by d4ni

14. I fought the war
I fought the war
But the war won't stop for the love of God...

15. Hey remember that month when I only ate boxes of tangerines
So cheap and juicy!
"That Time" by Regina Spektor, guessed by d4ni

16. It was just my mistake thinking you cared
It was just my mistake thinking you'd be there
That you'd be by my side and that you wouldn't lie...

17. Trouble me, disturb me with all your cares and you worries
Trouble me on the days when you feel spent
Why let your shoulders bend underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong?

18. I said come on let's dance, we've got to take our chance
You whispered in my ear, you wanna get out of here...

19. Diet coke and a pizza please
Diet coke I'm on my knees...

20. My, my, my music hits me so hard
Makes me say "Oh my Lord" ...
"Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer, guessed by d4ni

21. I try so hard not to get upset because I know all the trouble I'll get
Oh, he tells me tears are something to hide and something to fear
And I try so hard to keep it inside so no one can hear...

22. Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans...
"Float On" by Modest Mouse, guessed by isiscaughey

23. And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die...
"Sunday Bloody Sunday" by U2, guessed by sagacious_c

24. Don't surround yourself with yourself, move on back two squares,
Send an Instant Karma to me, initial it with loving care...

25. Did you want me to change?
Well I'd change for good
And I want you to know that you'll always get your way...
"Shiver" by Coldplay, guessed by isiscaughey

Any new developments today? Or just lots more freaking out? Luckily I don't have anything due tomorrow, but the deadlines are looming, and work eats up lots of my time.

See, that just sounds like a bad plan. Cause if the opposition MPs were already convinced that the Conservatives are being ineffective, I don't see how Parliament not sitting will improve that. Then really nothing will get done.

22. Float On, Modest Mouse
25. Shiver, Coldplay

23. U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday

[alexiscartwheel.livejournal.com]

It's "All I Wanna Do", so you had the official title in there. :) Having some fun sounds really, well, fun right now.

Wow, I totally missed this the other day. So thanks for the reminder on your current post! Mwahaha, get ready for most of the rest of the list to be filled in. Probably not fair of me, but oh well!

7. The Killers - "When You Were Young"
8. Five Iron Frenzy - "Oh Canada" (lol)
9. Fall Out Boy - "Dance Dance"

13. Green Day - "Brain Stew"
15. Regina Spektor - "That Time"
20. MC Hammer - "Can't Touch This"


Whew! There might be more but they aren't ringing any bells currently. <3

HOOOLD OOOOON, TO THE DRREEEEAAAM...
I was going to skip that one, but I knew you'd be able to recognize it. :D

But yeah, once again, you know the words to every song ever. You are amazing, babe.
