Lyrics Quiz: Best Songs of 2001
Since 1996 I have been making best songs of the year lists and on the tenth anniversary I like to look back on those with a lyrics quiz. Keep in mind that this list was made back in 2001 and may not reflect I how I view them today. If you want to know my current songs from that year, I suggest you keep an eye out in a week or so. 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.

2. She checks out Mozart while she does Tai-Bo. Reminds me that there’s room to grow. (Drops of Jupiter - Train; guessed by Anonymous)
3. Well I woke up in too many beds with girls I didn’t know. I’ve seen lots of brothers at top, and I’ve watched them come and go.
4. You know I'm seeing it so clear. I've been afraid to tell you how I really feel, admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made.

9. I can’t love my business if I can’t get a trick down on Sana Monica where tricks are for kids.

18. I got this (expletive deleted) that after twelve million sold, mommy’s a narcoleptic always sleeping on (name). Gotta tie back of her head like Duece Bigalow.
19. I got half of mind to scream out loud. I got half a mind to die. So I won’t ever have to lose you good. Won’t ever have to say goodbye. I won’t ever have to lie.
20. Would you tremble if I touched your lips, would you laugh, please tell me this.
21. Your faith in me brings me to tears even after all these years. And it pains me so much to tell that you don’t know me that well.
22. She wants a car with a cup holder arm rest. She wants a car that will get her there. She’s changing her name from Kitty to Karen. (Short Skirt/Long Jacket - Cake; guessed by AJ)
