Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet

But they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets

Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful

Oh, Bennie she's really keen

She's got electric boots a mohair suit

You know I read it in a magazine

Bennie and the Jets...

[qualitygal]

I refuse to read all your earworms, hence they become mine!! LOL

[just bee]

Oh my darlin'

Knock three times on the ceiling if you want me

Mmm, twice on the pipe if the answer is no

Oh, my sweetness

Means you'll meet me in the hallway

Whoa, twice on the pipe means you ain't gonna show

"You Don't Bring Me Flowers"

You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore
When you come through the door
At the end of the day

I remember when
You couldn't wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me

Now after lovin' me late at night
When it's good for you
And you're feeling alright
Well, you just roll over
And you turn out the light

You don't bring me flowers anymore

It used to be so natural
To talk about forever
But 'used to be's' don't count anymore
They just lay on the floor
'Til we sweep them away

And baby, I remember
All the things you taught me
I learned how to laugh
And I learned how to cry
Well I learned how to love
Even learned how to lie

You'd think I could learn
How to tell you goodbye
'Cause you don't bring me flowers
Anymore

Well, you'd think I could learn
How to tell you goodbye
'Cause you don't bring me flowers
Anymore

Learn something new every day ......  I'd never heard the term "earworms" before,  but was pretty sure it's what can happen if you swim in a lake with too much algae in it!    lol

"The Way We Were"

Mem'ries,
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored 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
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?
Mem'ries, may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...
The way we were...

She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. Onetta there in the corner stands And she wonders where she is. And the rain still hurts, Some people seem to have everything. Nine a.m. on the hour hand And she's waiting for the bell. And she's looking real pretty. She's waiting for her clientele. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. Twenty-eight years have come and gone. And she's seen a lot of tears Of the ones who come in. They really seem to need her there. It's a sacrifice working day to day. For little money just tips for pay. But it's worth it all just to hear them say that they care. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. Already knows she's seen her bad times. Already knows these are the good times. She'll never sell out, she never will, not for a dollar bill. She works hard She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. Works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right. She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey. She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right.

At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong And I grew strong And I learned how to get along And so you're back From outer space I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?2 Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive, hey, hey1 It took all the strength I had not to fall apart Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart And I spent oh-so many nights just feeling sorry for myself I used to cry But now I hold my head up high and you see me Somebody new I'm not that chained-up little person and still in love with you And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free Well, now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's loving me Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?1 Oh no, not I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive Oh Go on now, go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye Do you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Tumble out of bed And stumble to the kitchen Pour myself a cup of ambition And yawn and stretch and try to come to life Jump in the shower And the blood starts pumpin' Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin' For folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 Workin' 9 to 5 What a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by It's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind And they never give you credit It's enough to drive you Crazy if you let it 9 to 5 For service and devotion You would think that I Would deserve a fat promotion Want to move ahead But the boss won't seem to let me I swear sometimes that man is Out to get me, hmmm They let you dream Just a watch 'em shatter You're just a step on the boss man's ladder But you got dreams he'll never take away In the same boat with a lot of your friends Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in And the tide's gonna turn And it's all gonna roll you away Workin' 9 to 5 What a way to make livin' Barely gettin' by It's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind And you never get the credit It's enough to drive you Crazy if you let it 9 to 5 Yeah, they got you were they want you There's a better life And you think about it, don't you? It's a rich man's game No matter what they call it And you spend your life Putting money in his wallet 9 to 5 Oh, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by It's all takin' and no givin' They just use your mind And they never give you credit It's enough to drive you Crazy if you let it 9 to 5 Yeah, they got you where they want you There's a better life And you dream about it, don't you? It's a rich man's game No matter what they call it And you spend your life Putting money in his wallet 9 to 5

Nothing From Nothing

Billy Preston

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin' if you want to be with me
Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin' if you want to be with me

I'm not tryin' to be your hero
'Cause that zero is too cold for me, Brrr
I'm not tryin' to be your highness
'Cause that minus is too low to see, yeah

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
And I'm not stuffin', believe you me
Don't you remember I told ya
I'm a soldier in the war on poverty, yeah
Yes, I am

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin' if you want to be with me
Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You gotta have somethin' if you want to be with me

You gotta have somethin' if you want to be with me
You gotta bring me somethin' girl, if you want to be with me
