Lyrics Quiz: Best of 2002


Every January I like to look back ten years at my playlist of the best songs from that year and present them as a lyrics quiz. Now with Spotify, click to follow me, I am slowly added all my previous lists for everyone to listen and I recently added my Best of 2010 list to go along with my first (1996) and latest (2011). You may have to wait a little while until I upload my Best of 2002 list so until them you can try to guess the list by their lyrics below. 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 and give you credit. Please keep in mind the lyrics quiz is for entertainment purposes only so please only use your own meandering mind to guess them.

1. Red hair with a curl, mellow roll for the flavor and the eyes for peeping.
2. It’s just the thought of you in love with someone else. It breaks my heart to see you hanging from a shelf.
3. “Welcome to the real world,” she said to me condescendingly. Take a seat take your life, plot it out in black and white.
4. Tell me just what you want me to be. One kids and boom, you’re the only one for me.
5. It’s always times likes these when I think of you and I wonder if you ever think of me. ‘Cause everything is so wrong and I don’t belong living in your precious memory.
6. Honey now if I’m honest, I still don’t know what love is. Another mirage folds into the hazy time recalled. And now the floodgates cannot hold all my sorrow, all my rage.
7. Broken heart again, another lesson learned. Better know your friend or else you will get burned. Gotta count on me ‘cause I can guarantee that I’ll be fine.
8. Something about the way the hair falls in your face. I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillow case.
9. Thinking of a master plan, you know, anything you need, baby ask your man. He was there from half a gram and now kilos and C-notes and high fusion brands.
10. Hey, don’t write yourself off yet. It’s only in your head where you feel left out or looked down on. Just do your best, do everything you can and don’t you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
11. I always thought are love was so right, I guess I was wrong. Always thought you’d be by my side papa, and now you’re gone.
12. Left the house this morning. Bells were ringing filled the air. I was wearing the cross of my calling on wheels of fire I come rolling down here.
13. I will never bother you, I will never promise too. I will never follow you. I will never bother you.
14. I you want to, I can save you. I can take you away from here. So lonely inside. So busy out there.
15. Maybe she thinks I know something, maybe, maybe she thinks it’s fine. Maybe she knows something I don’t. I’m so, I’m so tired, I’m tired of trying.
16. He said, “Take my hand. Live while can. Don’t you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand?”
17. It hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time. I want what’s yours and I want what’s mine. I want you but I’m not giving in this time.
18. If you can hear a piano fall you can hear me coming down the hall. If I could just hear your pretty voice I don’t think I’d need to see at all.
19. Mama, love you but this trailer got to go. I cannot grow old in Salam’s Lot. So here I go, it my shot. Feet fail me not. Maybe this is the only opportunity I got.
20. Well I’ve been watching while you been coughing. I’ve been drinking life while you been nauseous. And so I drink to health while you kill yourself.
21. Doo what I please, gonna spread the disease because I wanna. Gonna call all the shots for the No’s and the Nots because I wanna.
22. I’d like to ask you from the start if you could pull me out the dark or if our love could fall apart like cookies crumble.
23. So many things I’m going through, so much that I wanna do. It starting to become so clear to me tomorrow ain’t really guaranteed.
24. you don't wanna wake up getting told that ya kids trapped at school. When the time’s right, I’mma put this nine right to the left side of ya head, push ya mind right.
25. When I saw the break of day, I wished that I could fly away. 'Stead of kneeling in the sand catching teardrops in my hand.
