Sadly, both late and incorrect.  It was Bryan Adams' "THE KIDS WANNA ROCK."  Raf got the current song, Bryan Adams' "Summer of 69".

Yeah, I got that.

While were sitting here:  how about this one:

The good ole days, the honest man

The restless heart, the Promised Land

A subtle kiss that no one sees

A broken wrist and a big trapeze

 

The teenage queen, the loaded gun

The drop dead dream, the Chosen One

A southern drawl, a world unseen

A city wall and a trampoline

On the corner of main street
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on, and
You say I'm falling behind

Can you [song title]?
Can you [song title]?

I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you [song title]?
Can you [song title]?

The good old days, the honest man
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well, I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, song title?

It's funny how you just break down
Waiting on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soaking my spine

Can you [song title]?
Can you [song title]?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, the world unseen
A city wall and a trampoline

OK I guess nobody has ever heard of the most under-rated album of the decade 2000 before?  Moving on then:  to another decade.

 

Along the coast you'll hear them boast
About a light they say that shines so clear.
So raise your glass, we'll drink a toast
To the little man who sells you thrills along the pier.

He'll take you up, he'll bring you down,
He'll plant your feet back firmly on the ground.
He flies so high, he swoops so low,
He knows exactly which way he's gonna go.

No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
He'll fly his astral plane,
Takes you trips around the bay,
Brings you back the same day,

Along the coast you'll hear them boast
About a light they say that shines so clear.
So raise your glass, we'll drink a toast
To the little man who sells you thrills along the pier.

He'll take you up, he'll bring you down,
He'll plant your feet back firmly on the ground.
He flies so high, he swoops so low,
He knows exactly which way he's gonna go.

He'll fly his astral plane.
He'll take you trips around the bay.
He'll bring you back the same day.

Another then,

Ticking away the moments that make up the dull day

Fitter and waste the hours in an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

That's it Pink Floyd's "Time from the "Dark Side of the Moon" album (speaking of albums did you know what album I was talking about that was the "Most Underrated Album of the decade" 2000"?  

No, I rarely know what album is connected to what songs.

Next song.

"Schoolgirl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
Little skirt's climbin' way up the knee.
There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me.

I was a high school loser, never made it with a lady
'Til the boys told me somethin' I missed.
Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss
Like this."

I figured dat be da one anyhow.  I'm going

 

Midnight on the water

I saw the ocean's daughter

Walking on a wave's chicane

Staring as she called my name

And I can't get it..........

No, I can't get it......

Now my whole world is.....

Cause I can't get it.........

 

Breakdown on the shoreline,

Can't move, it's an ebbtide

Morning didn't get here till night,

Searching for her silver light

And I can't get it........

No, I can't get it.........

Now my whole world is.......

Yes I can't get it.......

 

(Here's some more lines being how this one is obscure)

Bank job in the city 

Robin Hood and william tell and ivanhoe and lancelot, they don't envy me yeah yeah


Sitting till the sun goes down,

In dreams the world keeps going round and round

And I can't get it..........

New Song:

Out of work, I'm out of my head

Out of self-respect, I'm out of bread

I'm under loved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home

 

Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it

Had offers but don't know which one to take

 Please don't tell 'em how you found me

Don't tell 'em how you found me

Gimme a break, give me a break

New Song:

Got on board a westboud seven forty seven

Didn't think before deciding what to do

Ooh, that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies

Rang true, sure rang true

 

Out of work, I'm out of my head

Out of self-respect, I'm out of bread

I'm under loved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home

Well no guesses so I'm moving on: Maybe I'll turn the page and get to page 281

Staring blindly into space

Getting up to splash my face

Wanting just to stay awake

Wondering how much I can take

Should I try to do some more

 

Feeling like I ought to sleep

Spinning room is sinking deep

Searching for something to say

Waiting for the break of day

Waiting for the break of day

Searching for something to say

Flashing lights against the sky

Giving up I close my eyes

Sitting cross-legged on the floor

 

Staring blindly into space

Getting up to splash my face

Wanting just to stay awake

Wondering how much I can take

Should I try to do some more

 

Feeling like I ought to sleep

Spinning room is sinking deep

Searching for something to say

Waiting for the break of day
