No, I'm sorry George. I thought that this song "Cheer Down" had some good lyrics but I failed to realize that it really didn't get much play time or even become known until after the artist George Harrison passed on. The song is contributed to something his wife Olivia would say to him when he got too excited or anxious. Cheer Down honey.
I do like the one line clues. Something is more fun about them than several lines. I was going to use this song and use the line "I saw a Werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vics, his hair was perfect", but it would give part of the title away which is Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon I believe.
"We got to move these refrigerators, we got to move these color TV's."

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

Once beneath the stars, the universe was ours. Love was all we knew, and all I knew was you. I wonder where you are, I wonder if you think about me Once upon a time, IN YOUR WILDEST DREAMS. It mig

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
[Chorus, which repeats the title about four times]
Close my eyes
She's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

It seems like yesterday
But it was long ago
Janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
There in the darkness with the radio playing low

It wasn't Boris Karloff. Bobby Pickett used a Karloff like voice and even used the nickname "Borey".
Human, you're up.

Human gets the credit, but the artist was Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers.
(They're named in passing during the song, also.)

I can see by your grin
That you're trembling within
it's all over town,
And the smile on your face
Is sometimes out of place
Don't mind, don't frown,

If your hair should fall
If your shares should crash
You'll get by even without getting a rash
There's no tears to be shed
I'm gonna love you instead
I want you around, [song title]

I've heard the song before, but not well enough to recognize it without the title phrase.

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour 9am
And I'm going to 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

"Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits
When I'm working, yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you

That's The Proclaimers, doing "500 Miles (I'm Gonna Be)".
=====================
"I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older.
I turn the switch and check the number.
I leave it on when in bed I slumber.
I hear the rhythms of the music.
I buy the product and never use it."
