Lyrics Quiz: 1986


Tomorrow see the premiere of Glory Daze, the TBS series that is sent at a college in 1986. Due to its setting; there will be plenty of great music that will make up the soundtrack (assuming that TBS will have a budget to get the rights, the Pilot is music heavy). In honor of the premiere, I have collected some of my favorite songs for 1986. As always leave your guesses, both artist and song title, in the comment section or e-mail me. If you are correct I will un-bold the lyric. Please keep in mind the lyrics quiz is for entertainment purposes only so please only use your own meandering mind to guess them. Now onto the lyric quiz:


1. Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye.
2. I was eighteen, didn’t have a care. Working for peanuts, not a dime to spare.
3. Not the word from your lips, you just took for granted that I want to skinny dip.
4. In the paper today: tales of war and of waste, but you turn right over to the TV page.
5. You could have a bumper car bumping. This amusement never ends.

6. Now Little Bo Peep cold lost her sheep and Rip van Winkle fell the hell asleep. And Alice chilling somewhere in Wonderland, Jack’s serving Jill a bucket in his hand. (Peter Piper - Run-DMC; guessed by Rose)
7. I used to be a renegade, I used to fool around. But I couldn’t take the punishment and had to settle down. Now I’m playing it real strait and yes I cut my hair.
8. I don’t want to end up a cartoon in a cartoon graveyard.
9. Er war Superstar. Er war popular. Er war so exaltiert. Because er hatte Flair.
10. When the mirror crashed I called you in time to her you say, “If only for today I am unafraid.”
11. Every time I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray. I’m waiting for that final moment you say the words I can’t say.
12. You must have been heaven sent. Hearing me call you went out on a limb.
13. Set me free why don’t ya babe? Get out my life why don’t ya babe?
14. I know you are an emotional girl. It took a lot for you to not lose faith in this world. But I can’t offer you proof but you’re gonna face the moment of truth.
15. That’s when you she told me a story about free milk and a cow. And said no huggy no kissy ‘till I get a wedding vow.

17. Her weapons were her crystal eyes making every man mad.

19. You don’t have to watch Dynasty to have an attitude.
20. I got the gun, you got the booze, you got two chooses of what you can do. It is not a touch decision as you can see, I can blow you away or you can ride with me.
21. I got a job waiting for my graduation. Fifty thou a year will buy a lotta beer.
22. The further on the edge, the hotter the intensity.
