It was February of 2003 and you were here... on FR’s Greatest Earworm Thread.
Memories
Misty watercolor memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Oh can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me
Would we?
Could we?
Memories may be beautiful and yet
What’s too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it’s the laughter we’ll remember
We’ll remember
Whenever we remember
The Way We Were...
My current earworm is “That’s All I Know” by Art Garfunkel. MAKE IT STOOOOOOOOOOPPP!!!
Well I'm shopping for a new car, which one's me?
A cool convertible or an SUV.
Too bad I didn't know my credit was whacked, so I driving off the lot in a used sub-compact.
F-R-E-E, that spells "free", credit report dot com baby.
Saw their ads on my TV. Thought about goin' but was too lazy.
Now instead of lookin' fly I'm looking fat, my legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse's getting laughed at.
F-R-E-E, that spells "free", credit report dot com baby....
I saw a picker on stage once who mentioned this syndrome, then said that one way to get rid of it was to play it backwards. He went on to say that something like the “Woody Woodpecker” theme song might be difficult, but it could be done.
Oh, great, there it goes again ...
... or anything by Abba.
Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed,
Then one day he was shootin at some food,
And up through the ground came a bubblin crude.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.
Well the first thing you know ol Jed’s a millionaire,
Kinfolk said “Jed move away from there”
Said “Californy is the place you ought to be”
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.
Hills, that is. Swimmin pools, movie stars.
Well now its time to say good by to Jed and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin in.
You’re all invited back a gain to this locality
To have a heapin helpin of their hospitality
Hillybilly that is. Set a spell, Take your shoes off.
Y’all come back now, y’hear?.
And:
"I will follow himmmm....follow him wherever HE may go!!!"
Aaaggghhhh! Is it time for this thread again? Don’t make me break out the....oh heck, what’s her name with the weird nostrils?
Speedy, I was soooo thinking about you last week my friend. I caught a infomercial with one of those Time-Life collections of “soft rock” hits. They had a few Bread tunes and I got all teary-eyed, sniff sniff.....Excuse me, I must go write in my diary (sob)!
