Life has been extremely stressful for the last week, so I have decided to have a contest. If you can correctly name the songs (or come close) that have these lyrics in them, I will link to you in my next 3 posts. How? Who knows, but I'll do it. On the honor system... no googling the answers! You have until 7am Monday to come up with the answers. Asking relatives is acceptable. GRIN.
1. Oh, where is my hairbrush? Oh where is my hairbrush? Oh, where, oh, where, oh, where, oh, where, oh, where, oh, where, oh, where, oh, where oh, where ... is my hairbrush?
2. Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti
(Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti)
Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti
(Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti)
Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti (spaghetti)
Spaghetti, (spaghetti) spaghetti
Spaghetti, spaghetti
3. If my lips said "Adios, I don't like you, I think you're gross." That'd be too bad, I might get mad.
4. This is a song for your poor, sick penguin
He's got a fever and his toes are blue
But if I sing to your poor, sick penguin
He will feel better in a day or two
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-lee-eee-ooo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yada-yada yada-yada yad-eee-ooo
5. (Squawk, Whistle)
Cocky want a cracker (Repeat)
(Squawk, Whistle)
Pieces of eight (Repeat)
Everyone around the zoo
they heard the cockys song
They sang and danced along with cocky too
6. If there's a place you got to go
I'm the one you need to know
I'm the Map
I'm the Map
I'm the Map
If there's a place you got to get
I can get you there I bet
I'm the Map (repeat 12 times)
Are you getting the idea that you have to say something over and over and over again in a song?
7. Like a moth to a flame
Burned by the fire
My love is blind
Can't you see my desire
You didn't think they would ALL be kids songs did you?
But the first 6... I pretty much know by heart now. Ugh. Good luck! The one with the most correct answers win!!! BTW, Bou cannot participate since she is the one that gave me some of those songs. GRIN.
This will also be the only post this weekend, unless I can find a few minutes to sneak in another. I think I will be waiting in line for gas and it still takes an hour or more. Go shopping at Lowes or Home Depot to get stuff and the grocery store again. Did I mention I have a birthday party to go to tomorrow and have not bought the soon to be 4 year old GIRL a gift. So much to do and no gas to get there. ;-)
Posted by vw bug at October 29, 2005 06:44 AM | TrackBackI'm guessing some may be Wiggles songs??
Posted by: Marie at October 29, 2005 02:45 PMYou are guessing correctly... any idea which ones?
Posted by: VW Bug at October 29, 2005 04:05 PM#6 has got to be "I'm the Map" and I'm guessing 1 is "Oh Where is my hairbrush?" and 2 is "Cold Spaghetti"
Posted by: caltechgirl at October 29, 2005 04:55 PMIs the first one a Veggie Tales song? I LOVE their songs - and I also love the Wiggles. My daughter is 21 years old, but I guess I never grew up myself. I also like Captain Feathersword.
Posted by: suzeisnotfooledbyislam at October 29, 2005 05:16 PMCTG: Number 2 is not "Cold Spaghetti", that is the 2nd verse of the song. But you are welcome to say the words to any mother of young children and see if they end up singing the whole song and have it stuck in their head all day. GRIN
Suze: You are right. Veggie Tales. I saw Captain Feathersword out of uniform and dressed as a normal person. He is a good look'n man. You have excellent taste. I hope I never grow up either.
Posted by: VW Bug at October 30, 2005 06:07 AMI refuse to play, as when I got the answers correct it would seriously hurt my Man status.
Posted by: Contagion at October 30, 2005 10:05 AMDammit! I know, I know, I know!
Oooo, oooo, ooooo, Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!
Here I was reading these, thinking 'Holy Crap! I know these' and then it had that exlusionary clause. And of course, I didn't know the last one... heh.
Posted by: Bou at October 30, 2005 11:34 PMContagion: Yaaa right. My husband knows more of the songs than I do!
Bou: snicker snicker.
Posted by: VW Bug at October 31, 2005 08:12 AMIs it too late to guess? yes I know it is, but I know almost all of them!
Posted by: oddybobo at October 31, 2005 11:59 AMMarie, CTG, Suze: For the next 3 days, you will be in my posts. Some how, some way. Thanks for having some fun with me. I needed the break!
Contagion: YOu didn't guess... not adding you
Bou: Blhhhhhhhh. You probably knew them all... guess I'll post the answers tomorrow.
Posted by: VW Bug at October 31, 2005 12:00 PMI KNEW ALL OF THEM!!!! Well, except for that last adult song. I didn't know that one. ;-)
Posted by: Bou at October 31, 2005 12:22 PMOddybobo: I'll add you to the list of those I will post for 3 days Oddybobo. I bet you did know most of them as well.
Bou: That's why I threw it in the pile. I figured you wouldn't be the only one that knew them all.
I have the answers prepared... finally.
Posted by: VW Bug at October 31, 2005 12:30 PMI even knew the Janet Jackson song. And thanks, I have been singing the hairbrush song all day. I have been singing that and Barbara Manatee!!!
Posted by: oddybobo at October 31, 2005 01:25 PMAw crap! now I'm singing "Hot Potato" At least no one saw me do the hand motions!
Posted by: oddybobo at October 31, 2005 01:31 PMIt's not often that I'm this pleased with my own ignorance. Thanks for reminding me of one of the good things about my kids getting older. Fortunately for me they now listen to (and like) MY music.
