Because I clearly have nothing else to do... (even though I actually have like 902938467 other things that I should be doing... )

Step 1: Put your MP3 player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first couple lines from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song may be.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: For those who are guessing, looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game, post your own please!

1. Faded white hats
Grabbing credits, maybe transfers
They read all the books but they can't find the answers
And all of our parents
They're getting older
I wonder if they've wished for anything better

2. Couldn't keep to myself enough.
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.
I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart,

3. Make time slower, give me longer.
It's too late for me, no one will know that I'm down here.
And believe your dreams of me sinking
so far, below, you can't pull me up from here so don't try.

4. I think I'm finally scared now
You think I'm weak - but I think you're wrong
I think you're already leaving
Feels like your hand is on the door
I thought this place was an empire

5. Force our smiles, baby, half dead
From comparing myself to everyone else around me
Please put the doctor on the phone 'cause I'm not making any sense
Blame everyone but me for this mess
And my back has been breaking from this heavy heart
We never seemed so far

6. He come through with the money and the garter bags
I let him know we bout that cake straight up the gate uh
We independent women, some mistake us for whores
I'm sayin', why spend mine when I can spend yours

7. You trained these lips when they were champs
And now they're itchin' for a comeback
So come back
It's a shame that your claim to fame
Hangs on someone else's name

8.The hell out of this town
Find some conversation
The low fuel lights been on for days
It doesn't mean anything
I've got another 500, 'nother 500 miles
before we shut this engine down,
we shut it down

9.Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's alright

10. Let breathe new dawn this art is dead!
No signs of original thought in the mainstream
Is there anybody on the receiving end?
We can eclipse all that came before us

11. Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world its saddest sound
Its saddest sound

12. She pulls back the hair from her face
She turns to the window to sway in the moonlight
Even her shadow has grace
A waltz for the girl out of reach
She lifts her hands up to the sky

13. The more you give.
The more you get.
That's being alive!
All I'm asking you is to do what
Jesus Christ would do!
He'd give me a quarter,
Why don't you?

14. If you were smart, you would keep on walking
Out of my life as fast as you can
I'm not the one you should pin your hopes on
You're falling for the wrong kind of man
This is crazy! You know we should call it a day
Sound advice, great advice
Let's throw it away

15. Reach
For higher ground
About the way you look
The way you scream out loud
Mine
Just like the last time
Its all the same to me
She said

16. From gutter institutions.
Don't you breathe for me,
Undeserving of your sympathy,
Cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry for what I did.
And through it all
How could you cry for me?

17. You left something undone, it's now your rerun
It's the one you can't erase
You should have made it right, so you wouldn't have to fight
To put a smile back on your face

18. Out of body and out of mind
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
I get the funny feeling, that’s alright
Jimmy says it's better than here,
I’ll tell you why

19. Mi mancherá la tua serenitá
Le tue parole come canzoni al ventro
E l'amore che ora porti via
Mi mancherai se te ne vai
Ora e per sempre non so come vivrei
E l'allegria, amica mia

20. Gregor was down again
Said come on, kick me again
Said, I'm so drunk
I don't mind if you kill me
Come on you gutless
I'm alive


That was surprisingly entertaining. Some of them are like RIDICULOUSLY EASY. Some not so much. Have fun!
