8/19a Lyrical Pursuit Lyrics
This is for 10 points. Either Stephen will break it totally open or we will see a tighter race.
(See rules/intro here.)
Me see Jamaican moon above.
It won't be long me see me love.
Me take her in my arms and then
I tell her I never leave again
speaking of tight, has anyone heard from Jen lately?
andway ememberray otnay otay useway ooglegay!
Ok this one is going to be tough, but this clue should give it away so here goes
clue #1: This is the way these lyrics probably sound to the untrained or sober ear
teey.... teteeynow ingamymoowabow.
theymuppeelow they peepeealow
theypayinarhear my artegen
aymebber ay mebbelayergen
and no, it's not pig latin. Since I am giving this version of the lyrics I will want a specific band as it has been done many times over the years
Nothing?
Clue #2: You're all worthless and weak, Now drop and give me 20
Is it Jamaica Farewell?
Although I shouldn't guess if I can't think of the artist, should I...I think we had Jamaica Farewell on a Roger Whitaker album, but I shoudn't admit that, either.
Still, at least I didn't know Hannah Montana.

No & no. Nic is right in that it is NOT Hanah Montana

Posted by: Pete at August 19, 2008 06:56 PMP.S. I knew it without the Animal House clue.
