my love should be so bad now, to turn out this way

spent a long time looking for a game to play
my love should be so bad now, to turn out this way
Jethro Tull — A New Day Yesterday (Stand Up, 1969)
planted seeds in silence and granted meek compliance
and in the spring rain exploded in a riot
of color and excitement, wearing no disguises
declaring to the stars that we trek like enterprises
Flobots — Circle in the Square (Circle in the Square, 2012)
the record company’s gonna give me lots of money and everything’s gonna be all right
Reel Big Fish — Sell Out (Turn the Radio Off, 1996)
you, lose yourself
no, not for pity’s sake
there’s no reason to be lonely
be yourself, give your free will a chance
you’ve got to work to succeed
Yes — Owner of a Lonely Heart (90125, 1983)
look out, get down
they’re taking you downtown
get in, blow kisses
it gets no better than this
Dayroom – Cheap Wine (Contagious, 1997)
look at me, look at me
driving and i won’t stop
and it feels so good to be
alive and on top
Flobots – Handlebars (Fight with Tools, 2008)
you won’t find it easy now, it’s only fair
he was willing to give to you, you didn’t care
you’re waiting for more, but you’ve already had your share
Jethro Tull – Witch’s Promise (Benefit, 1970)
i’ll scratch you raw, l’etat c’est moi
i drink the drink and i’m wall to wall
i absorb trust like a love rhombus
i feel i must elucidate: i ate the chump with guile
Soul Coughing – Bus to Beelzebub (Ruby Vroom, 1994)
