The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

Wish I had a car, top rolled down, the music up loud
Follow that girl all over town and see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna notice me
Wish I had a dog, seen her in the park with a puppy on a string
Looking so cute maybe sooner or later we'd meet
Norma Jean Riley's gonna talk to me
Everybody says fool, fool nothin' you can do
Never gonna see her with the likes of you
I say watch and see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna notice me
Oughta learn to dance, with the hottest moves and the latest styles
Get her on the dance floor and after awhile you'll see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna dance with me
Everybody says fool, fool nothin' you can do
Never gonna see her with the likes of you
I say watch and see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna notice me
Gonna write a song, sing about her hair, her lips and her eyes
Bring her to tears with my heartfelt honesty
Norma Jean Riley's gonna fall for me
Everybody says fool, fool nothin' you can do
Never gonna see her with the likes of you
I say watch and see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna fall for me
Everybody says fool, fool nothin' you can do
Never gonna see her with the likes of you
I say watch and see
Norma Jean Riley's gonna marry me

When the sun goes down
On my side of town
That lonesome feeling
Comes to my door
The whole world turns blue
There's a rundown bar
Cross the railroad tracks
I've got a table for two
Way in the back
Where I sit alone
And think of losing you
I spend most every night
Beneath the light
Of this neon moon
Now if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
The lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
I think of two young lovers
Running wild and free
I close my eyes
And sometimes see
You in the shadows
Of this smoke-filled room
No telling how many tears
I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies
That I've lied
Telling my poor heart
She'll come back someday
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
Oh, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
The lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
The jukebox plays on
Drink by drink
And the words of every sad song
Seem to say what I think
And this hurt inside of me
Ain't never gonna end
Oh, but I'll be alright
As long as there's light
From a neon moon
Oh, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for
The lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Oh, watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me
What the time was that was on my WATCH, yeah
I said
does anybody really know what time it is?
(Care about time) does anybody really care?
If so, I can't imagine why
(Oh no, no) we've all got time enough to cry
And I was walking down the street one day
A pretty lady looked at me
And said her diamond watch had stopped cold dead
And I said
does anybody really know what time it is?
(Care about time) does anybody really care?
If so, I can't imagine why
(Oh no, no) we've all got time enough to cry
And I was walking down the street one day (people runnin' everywhere)
Being pushed and shoved (don't know where to go)
By people trying to beat the clock (I don't know where I am)
Although I just don't know (I can't see past the next step)
I don't know, I don't know (they have time to see past the last snow)
And I said (they have no time to look around, they just run around and run around)
Yes, I said (and see what?)
does anybody really know what time it is?
(Care about time) does anybody really care?
If so, I can't imagine why
(Oh no, no) we've all got time enough to die
Everybody's worryin' (I don't care)
I don't care
(About time) about time
(Oh no, no) I don't care

Think of you with pipe and slippers,
think of her in bed.
Laying there just wWATCHING telly,
then think of me instead.
I'll never grow so old and flabby,
that could never be.
Don't marry her, fuck me
And your love light shines like cardboard,
but your work shoes are glistening.
She's a Ph. D in 'I told you so',
you've a knighthood in 'I'm not listening'.
She'll grab your sweaty bollockes,
then slowly raise her knee.
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay,
and you realise you can't make it anyway.
You have to wash the car,
take the kiddies to the park.
Don't marry her, fuck me
Those lovely Sunday mornings,
with breakfast brougt in bed.
those blackbirds look like knitting needles,
trying to peck your head.
those birds will peck your soul out,
and throw away the key.
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the kitchen's always tidy,
and the bathroom is always clean.
She's a diploma in 'just hiding things',
you've a first in 'low esteem'.
When your socks smlll of angels,
but your life smells of Brie.
Don't marry her, fuck me.
And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay,
and you realise you can't make it anyway.
You have to wash the car,
take the kiddies to the park.
Don't marry her, have me.

and you realise you can't make it anyway.

Since you've gone, I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face

I keep crying baby, baby, please
Mm, mm, mm, mm

Bye and bye, I’m breathin’ a lover’s sigh
I’m sittin’ on my WATCH so I can be on time
I’m singin’ love’s praises with sugar-coated rhyme
Bye and bye, on you I’m casting my eye
I’m paintin’ the town—swinging my partner around
I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I’m watchin’ the roads, I’m studying the dust
I’m paintin’ the town making my last go-round
Well, I’m slippin’ and slidin’, walkin’ on briars
To get to the one that my heart desires
I’m rollin’ slow—I’m doing all I know
I’m tellin’ myself I found true happiness
That I’ve still got a dream that hasn’t been repossessed
I’m rollin’ slow, goin’ where the wild red roses grow
Well the future for me is already a thing of the past
You were my first love and you will be my last
Papa gone mad, mama, she’s feeling sad
I’ll establish my rule through civil war
I'm gonna make you see
Just how loyal and true a man can be

There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business men, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody offered his word
Hey, hey
No reason to get excited
The thief, he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey
Hey
All along the WATCHtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Well, uh, outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey
All along the WATCHtower
All along the WATCHtower

It's okay to look outside
The day it will abide
And watch the sunrise
Sun, it shines on all of us
We are one in its hands
Come inside and light my room
Like the heart of every man
It's okay to look outside
The day it will abide
And watch the sunrise
I can feel it, now it's time
Open your eyes
Fears be gone, it won't be long
There's a light in the sky
It's okay to look outside
Your love it will abide

Bob Dylan, YOU'RE A BIG GIRL NOW
Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off my feet
And I'm back in the rain, oh
And you are on dry land
You made it there somehow
You're a big girl now
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on a fence
He's singin' his song for me at his own expense
And I'm just like that bird, oh
Singin' just for you
I hope that you can hear
Hear me singin' through these tears
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last
I can change, I swear, oh
See what you can do
I can make it through
You can make it, too
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh
In somebody's room
It's a price I have to pay
YOU'RE a big girl all the way
A change in the weather is known to be extreme
But what's the sense of changing horses in midstream?
I'm going out of my mind, oh
With a pain that stops and starts
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since we've been apart

So in love when we're together

It's getting late but you're too blind to see what YOU’RE doing to me
Time has run out, soon a new day will dawn with that day you'll be gone
No you don't know how I feel in my heart, I can't bear us to part
And you can't see how I'm hurting inside or the tears that I hide
Just as the night will end with the dawn
You'll fade from my sight, too soon you'll be gone
Soon you will seem a lifetime away
You'll be like a dream which ends with the day.

Ooh, ooh, ooh...
We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never wanna see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
YOU'RE still the one I want whisperin' in my ear
YOU'RE still the one I wanna talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one
I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go (wanted to go)
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow
You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one
YOU'RE still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I wanna take along
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one (yes, you are)
Ooh
Ooh
Changing, our love is going gold
Even though we grow old, it grows new
YOU'RE still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one
YOU'RE still the one who can scratch my itch
YOU'RE still the one that I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun and you're still the one
You are still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one
You are still the one
YOU'RE still the one
We're still having fun and YOU'RE still the one

Dressed up like you're somethin' else

Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spending my money, I didn't care
I carried my friends out for a good time,
Buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low,
I didn't have a friend, and no place to go
So if I ever get my hand on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hold on to it till them eagle's grin
Nobody knows you when YOU'RE down and out
In my pocket not one penny,
And my friends I haven't any
But If I ever get on my feet again,
Then I'll meet my long lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when YOU'RE down and out
I mean when you down and out
Mmmmm, when you're down and out,
Mmmmm, not one penny
And my friends I haven't any,
Mmmmm, well I felt so low
Nobody wants me round their door,
Mmmmm, without a doubt,
No man can use you wen you down and out
I mean when YOU'RE down and out
Woy! Desperation has return
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so!
Woy desperation has return over yonder
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so!
Wild one, you are like the Prodigal Son yeah
And if YOU'RE the Prodigal Son, my friend
Then YOU'RE the one, you
Left taking your only possession
Your culture
To enter a world known for hacklings
In abundance, yeah
The hustlers of life
Have hooked and drained you from the man
Form the man that you used to be, turn your back on us
Return Rastaman where you came from
The land of your forefathers
Reaching the gates with your two long hands
Searching out for clean water
Wild one...
Prodigal come forth and rejoice with your voice
To the heavens
Chant some song, chant some song
Prodigal come forth and repent
Rastafari sins forgiven
Woy! Desperation has return...
One has returned without one's soul
And has squandered all his possessions
Let us cleanse your body now
From your service to the swine, because
You've been dead and now to anoint your head
With wisdom, knowledge and overstanding
A lesson has been taught unto you my friend
Time for a feast and rejoicing
Wild one...
Woy! Desperation has return
Prodigal has returned to his culture
Prodigal has returned give him water
Prodigal has returned, has returned...

Would you lay with me in a field of stone
If my needs were strong would you lay with me
Should my lips grow dry would you wet them dear
In the midnight hour if my lips were dry
Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give my self to you
Will you bathe with me in the stream of life
When the moon is full will you bathe with me
Will you still love me when I am down and out
In my time of trials will you stand by me
Would you go away to another land walk a thousand miles through the burning sand
Wipe the blood away from my dying hand
If I give my self to you
Would you lay with me in field of stone
Should my lips grow dry, would you wet them dear
Would you wet them dear

See the thorn twist in your side
I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails, she makes me wait
And I wait without you
WITH or without you
With or without you
Through the storm, we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you
With or without you
With or without you, ah, ah
I can't live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away

Hey, Bungalow Bill

Bungalow Bill?

He went out tiger hunting WITH his elephant and gun
In case of accidents he always took his mum
He's the all American bullet-headed saxon mother's son
All the children sing
Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill

Deep in the jungle where the mighty tiger lies
Bill and his elephants were taken by surprise
So Captain Marvel zapped him right between the eyes
All the children sing
Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?
Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?
The children asked him if to kill was not a sin
"Not when he looked so fierce", his mummy butted in
"If looks could kill it would have been us instead of him"
All the children sing

Maybe it's too late but
This feelin' is runnin' through my soul
I think I've learned what love is
But I'm afraid I let it go
Maybe it's too late
Maybe you've already changed your mind
Turned lovin' into leavin'
And I'm on the outside
You can't take these words
To bed with you
And hold onto them at night
They can't erase the emptiness
And make everything all right
But your laughter and your tenderness
Will never disappear
No matter where you are tonight
A part of you is here with me
Here with me
I don't know where you are
All I know is I need you to be
Here with me
I know it's not too late
To turn around and get it straight
It's my fate to have you here with me
I can hear your voice promising
Your love will never die
I can feel your golden skin on mine
Beneath the desert sky
So, how can it be true
How can you just turn and let me go
Let the story of your life with mine
Forever go untold
I can't take these words to bed with me
And hold onto them at night
They can't erase the emptiness
And make everything all right
'Cause your laughter and your tenderness
Will never disappear
No matter where you are tonight
A part of you is here with me
Here with me
I don't know where you are
All I know is I need you to be
Here with me
I know it's not too late

WITH a little luck we can help it out
We can make this whole damn thing work out
With a little love we can lay it down
Can't you feel the town exploding
There is no end to what we can do together
There is no end
The willow turns his back on inclement weather
And if he can do it we can do it
Just me and you
And a little luck we can clear it up
We can bring it in for a landing
With a little luck we can turn it on
There can be no misunderstanding
There is no end to what we can do together
There is no end
The willow turns his back on inclement weather
And if he can do it
Just me and you
With a little push we could set it off
We can send it rocketing skywards
With a little love we could shake it up
Don't you feel the comet exploding
With a little luck, with a little luck
With a little luck, a little luck, a little luck
With a little love, we can lay it down

You sign your name
Today at five
I'll be on that train
And you'll be free
And I'll be alone
So alone
If you think
We can't find the love we once knew
If you think
I can't make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone
And you'll be on your own
You'll be on your own
Can you take good care of Jenny
Can you take her to school everyday
Can you teach her how to play
All the games that little girls play
Hear what I say
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
Can you make sure each night that she says her prayers
Well if you can do all these things
Then maybe she won't miss me
Maybe she won't miss me
And tonight as you laid in that big lonely bed
And you look at that pillow
Where I laid my head
With your heart on fire
Will you have no desire
To kiss me
Or to hold me
And if you can forget
The good times we had
If you don't think
They out weigh the bad
Well then go ahead
Sign your name
And I'll be
On my way
I'll be on my way

Love can overcome the fear
And life can be so much more

Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and took all the reason
I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
I've been workin' in this factory
For now on fifteen years
All this time I watched my woman
Drownin' in a pool of tears
And I've seen a lot of good folk die
That had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right offa' my back
If I had the guts to say
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and took all the reason
I was workin' for
You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more
Well that foreman, he's a regular dog
The line boss, he's a fool
Got a brand new flattop haircut
Lord, he thinks he's cool
One of these days I'm gonna' blow my top
And that sucker, he's gonna' pay
Lord, I can't wait to see their faces
When I get the nerve to say
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and took all the reason
I was workin' for
You better not try to stand in my way
As I'm a-walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it

I woke up crying late at night
When I was very young
I had dreamed my father
Had passed away and gone
My world revolved around him
I couldn't lie there anymore
So I made my way down the mirrored hall
And tapped upon his door
And I said "Daddy, I'm so afraid
How will I go on with you gone that way?
Don't want to cry anymore, so may I stay with you?"
And he said "That's my job
That's what I do
Everything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me
That's my job you see"
Later we barely got along
This teenage boy and he
Most of the fights it seems
Were over different dreams
We each held for me
He wanted knowledge and learning
I wanted to fly out west
Said, "I could make it out there
If I just had the fare
I got half, will you loan me the rest?"
And I said "Daddy, I'm so afraid
There's no guarantee in the plans
I've made and if I should fail
Who will pay my way back home?"
And he said "That's my job
That's what I do
Everything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me
That's my job you see"
Every person carves his spot
And fills the hole with light
And I pray someday I might
Light as bright as he
Woke up early one bright fall day
To spread the tragic news
After all my travel, I settled down
Within a mile or two
I make my living with words and rhyme
And all this tragedy
Should go into my head and out instead
As bits of poetry
But I say "Daddy, I'm so afraid
How will I go on with you gone this way?
How can I come up with a song to say I love you?"
That's my job, That's what I do
Everything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me
That's my job you see
Everything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me

Zero hour 9:00 a.m.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time

Oh, no, no, no

And there's no one there to raise them
If you did
And all this science

It's just my JOB five days a week
A rocket man

Well, I quit my JOB down at the car wash
Left my mama a goodbye note
By sundown I'd left Kingston
With my guitar under my coat
I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis
Got a room at the YMCA
For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights
Just lookin' for a place to play
Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire
But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man
Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis
I run outta money and luck
So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia
On a overloaded poultry truck
I thumbed on down to Panama City
Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars
Hopin' I could make myself a dollar
Makin' music on my guitar
I got the same old story at them all night piers
There ain't no room around here for a guitar man
We don't need a guitar man, son
So I slept in the hobo jungles
Roamed a thousand miles of track
Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama
At a club they call Big Jack's
A little four-piece band was jammin'
So I took my guitar and I sat in
I showed 'em what a band would sound like
With a swingin' little guitar man
Show 'em, son
If you ever take a trip down to the ocean
Find yourself down around Mobile
Make it on out to a club called Jack's
If you got a little time to kill
Just follow that crowd of people
You'll wind up out on his dance floor
Diggin' the finest little five piece group
Up and down the Gulf of Mexico
Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band
Well, wouldn't ya know, it's that swingin' little guitar man, yeah yeah

I said no, can't find no JOB
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent
She said I don't believe you're tryin' to find no JOB
Said I seen you today you was standin' on a corner
Leaning up against a post

She said that don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent
And out the door I went

Loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go
