This might be fun for about 5 minutes. I'll go first.

All the late night bargains have been struck
Between the satin beaus and their belles
And prehistoric garbage trucks
Have the city to themselves
Echoes roars dinosaurs
They're all doing the monster mash
And most of the taxis and the whores
Are only taking calls for cash

I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all I can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick

My door was standing open
Security was laid back and lax
But it was only my heart got broken
You must have had a pass key made out of wax
You played robbery with insolence
And I played the blues in twelve bars down Lover's Lane
And you never did have the intelligence to use
The twelve keys hanging off my chain

I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all I can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick

Now it's past last call for alcohol
Past recall has been here and gone
The landlord finally paid us all
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
And we're standing outside of this wonderland
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left

I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all I can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick

    Ok I'll go next but only give you one line out of the song. Please don't cheat and look it up on yahoo. Please name the individual singer or group.

    Luv that song... "The Wall" on that album was another classic.

    Ok you talked me into one more.

    It must have broke your poor little heart when the boys used to say you looked better in the dark.
    But now they'd give all they learned in school to be somewhere in the dark with you.

    Ok, try this:

    Is the only true amigo

    His heart is filled with sadness
    And his soul is like some
