Anti-Valentine songs
Feb. 3rd, 2008 03:36 pmThe next Sunday pub quiz I do is on 10th February -- which rather suggests a Valentine theme for the 'twelve assorted tracks to identify' at the end. However, since I have a rather 'bah, humbug!' attitude to the day, I was considering using a bunch of songs that subverted it instead. You know, something like
The Boots Are Made For Walking -- Nancy Sinatra
Where The Wild Roses Grow -- Nick Cave and Kylie Minogue
Girlfriend in a Coma -- The Smiths
Run For Your Life -- The Beatles
So, once again, I'm taking suggestions from the floor! Anyone got any other good songs for this theme?
Lyrics: Ah yes, the last one was Shop Around by the 'Miracles featuring Smokey Robinson' in 1960, and Captain and Tenille in 1976, and
muggle_prof knew it. Here's an old classic:
Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spendin' cash
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more (1950s)
