I LOVE NEW YORK - MADONNA

I don't like cities, but I like New York
Other places make me feel like a dork

MAGGIE MAY - ROD STEWART

I laughed at all of your jokes
My love you didn't need to coax

DON'T STAND SO CLOSE TO ME - THE POLICE

It's no use, he sees her, he starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in that book by Nabokov

WHEN I WAS YOUNG - THE ANIMALS

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls, I had a bad yen

BALLAD OF A THIN MAN - BOB DYLAN

You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks

BUG POWDER DUST - BOMB THE BASS

Never been a fake and I'm never phony
I got more flavour than a packet of macaroni

SMOOTH CRIMINAL - MICHAEL JACKSON

As he came into the window
Was a sound of a crescendo

IT'S EVERYDAY BRO - JAKE PAUL

And I just dropped some new merch
And it's selling like a God church

BOYFRIEND - JUSTIN BIEBER

Swag, swag, swag on you
Chillin' by the fire while we're eatin' fondue

LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE - EMINEM ft. RIHANNA

Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane

BREAK FREE - ARIANA GRANDE

I only wanna die alive,
Never by the hands of a broken heart
Don't wanna hear you lie tonight,
Now that I've become who I really are

RHYTHM IS A DANCER - SNAP

I'm serious as cancer
When I say that rhythm is a dancer

CHAMPAGNE SUPERNOVA - OASIS

Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball

HAPPY TOGETHER - THE TURTLES

So happy together
And how is the weather?

HIGHLY STRUNG - SPANDAU BALLET

She used to be a diplomat
But now she's down the laundromat

SPEED OF SOUND - COLDPLAY

Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance that you get is a chance you seize

LIFE - DES'REE

I'm afraid of the dark
Especially when I'm in a park

BUCK ROGERS - FEEDER

Get a house in Devon
Drink cider from a lemon

HEY, SOUL SISTER - TRAIN

Your lipstick stains
On the front lobe of my left side brains

SUMMER GIRLS - LFO

New Kids On The Block had a bunch of hits
Chinese food makes me sick

A HORSE WITH NO NAME - AMERICA

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings

AFRICA - TOTO

The wild dogs cry out in the night,
as they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right,
as sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

Level 88

Made this in 2020 but was never that happy with it and left it unsubmitted. Dimby's recent bad movie quotes quiz reminded me of it.

If you have any suggestions of questionable song lyrics I'd be interested to hear them!

Level 94

Feb 24, 2026

You forgot to include “Undeniably” as the second word in the quiz title.

Level 83

Feb 24, 2026

Yes, these lyrics are obviously the best ever written. Ariana’s lines are always delivered so smoothly and clearly, too, which is important to get across their profound meaning.

England is my city

How about any song that uses “I” as the object of a preposition instead of “me.”

One Direction “Nothing can come between you and I.”

Lady Gaga: “There’s something about you and I.”

Both of these songs are titled “You and I.”
