80s Song Lyrics Trivia

You're on a mission and you're wishin'
Someone could cure your lonely condition
Lookin' for love in all the wrong places
No fine girls just ugly faces

Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

I think it's cause I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud

When they insist on knowing my bliss, I tell them this.

You could have a steam train
If you just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back

But now we're six months older
And everything you want, and everything you see
Is out of reach, not good enough
I don't know what the hell you want from me, oh

Please, Louise
Pull me off of my knees
Jack, get back
Come on before we crack

Precious kisses, words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart the fire's burning
Choose my color, find a star

Do I have to catch you out
To know what's on your mind?
Well, Cleopatra died for Egypt
What a waste of time

Your pop caught you smoking, and he said: "No way!"
That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag (Busted!)

They say I'm nasty, but I don't give a damn
Getting girls is how I live
Some ask me questions, "Why am I so real?"
But they don't understand me or really don't know the deal
About a brother, trying hard to make it right
Not long ago, before I win this fight

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it

It's not very easy living all alone
My friends try and tell me find a man of my own
But each time I try, I just break down and cry
'Cause I'd rather be home feeling blue

Slipped me notes under the desk
While I was thinkin' about her dress
I was shy I turned away
Before she caught my eye

Do you tell lies? And say that it's forever
Do you think twice, or just touch and see?
Ooh, babe
Oh, yeah
When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild and willing or is it just for show?

A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

We got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We got to move these refrigerators
We got to move these color TV's

Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
If, when, why, what?
How much have you got?

The lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
