I can only hope that I'm keeping you entertained during your Friday friends-list perusal with a themed lyric meme.  Unlike ladycadey's, mine aren't so tough!  :D

15. Rainy Days and Mondays -- The Carpenters.

YAY for the Carpenters! I grew up on those guys. Er, guy and gal, whatever.

I love the Carpenters, too. Too bad Karen was struck down in her prime. :(

9. U2, One

19. John Mayer, Daughters

As for the ten things...*headdesk* I was totally coffee deprived yesterday morning. I gacked it from slytherincess. *blush blush*

But 6 -- never woke up the Chairman of the JCoS, but I have seen one in his bathing suit and drunk...but not at the same time. And I had a lovely conversation with a past Chief of Naval Operations (Rest in Peace, Admiral Boorda) about whether granddads should change poopy diapers.

You've met Jerry Springer? Am so jealous!

[quidditchgrrl.livejournal.com]

Yep, had my picture taken with him twice and I've been in the audience for one of his shows, too! :D

Jerry for Governor!

5)Annie Lennox - Why
9)U2 - One

I love both. :)

Dated three different men, all of whom turned out to be gay

What are the odds?!

Why do I suck so much at this lyric thing? WHY???

*cries*

LOL!

I recognised the first one and was all, "I'm so hardcore!"

But then I realised what song it is, and I sort of hated myself for being all excited about knowing it.

I'm not going to mention its name so you can't attach it to me. I don't wanna be that girl.
