Lyrics and questions
WARM UP
Do, a deer, a female deer
Re, a drop of golden sun
Mi, a name, I call myself
Fa, a long, long way to run
So, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So
Ti, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do, oh, oh, oh
1. Which famous lover’s name means “new house” in Italian?
I never thought I’d miss you half as much as I do
And I never thought I’d feel this way, the way I feel, about you
As soon as I wake up. Every night, every day
I know that it’s you I need to take the blues away
It must be love, love, love
It must be love, love, love
Nothing more, nothing less. Love is the best
How can it be that we can say so much without words?
Bless you and bless me. Bless the bees and the birds
I’ve got to be near you. Every night, every day
I couldn’t be happy, any other way
It must be love, love, love
It must be love, love, love
Nothing more, nothing less. Love is the best
2. What does Amarillo mean in Spanish?
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
When the day is dawning, on a Texas Sunday morning
How I long to be there, with Marie who’s waiting for me there
Every lonely city, where I hang my hat
Ain’t as half as pretty, as where my baby’s at
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I’ve been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I’ve been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la…
3. What’s the official name for the London police?
Riding through the city on my bike all day
‘Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn’t get me down and I feel okay
‘Cause the sights that I’m seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, and he’s sitting with a slapper
Then I see it’s a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh, you might frown
Walking ’round London town
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it’s all lies
4. Who wrote the play Look Back In Anger?
Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don’t you know you might find a better place to play?
You said that you’d never been
But all the things that you’ve seen slowly fade away
So I start a revolution from my bed
‘Cause you said the brains I had went to my head
Step outside, summertime’s in bloom
Stand up beside the fireplace. Take that look from off your face
You ain’t ever gonna burn my heart out
And so, Sally can wait
She knows it’s too late as we’re walkin’ on by
Her soul slides away
But “Don’t look back in anger,” I heard you say
5. A summer pudding contains fruit, sugar and what other main ingredient?
Summer lovin’, had me a blast
Summer lovin’, happened so fast
I met a girl crazy for me
Met a boy cute as can be
Summer days drifting away
To uh, oh those summer nights
Oh well, oh well, oh well oh, uh
Tell me more, tell me more
Did you get very far?
Tell me more, tell me more
Like does he have a car?
He got friendly holding my hand
Well, she got friendly down in the sand
He was sweet, just turned eighteen
Well, she was good, you know what I mean
Summer heat, boy and girl meet
But uh, oh those summer nights
Tell me more, tell me more
How much dough did he spend?
Tell me more, tell me more
Could she get me a friend?
It turned colder, that’s where it ends
So I told her we’d still be friends
Then we made our true love vow
Wonder what she’s doin’ now
Summer dreams ripped at the seams
But, oh, those summer nights
Tell me more, tell me more
6. Which actor won an Oscar for his starring role in Shine?
You, you’re such a big star to me
You’re everything I wanna be
But you’re stuck in a hole
And I want you to get out
I don’t know what there is to see
But I know it’s time for you to leave
We’re all just pushing along
Trying to figure it out, out, out
All your anticipation pulls you down
When you can have it all
You can have it all
So come on
So come on, get it on
I don’t know what you’re waiting for
Your time is coming, don’t be late, hey, hey
So come on
See the light on your face
Let it shine, just let it shine
Let it shine
Tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
7. Which African leader died at the age of 95 in 2013?
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin’
Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin’
For folks like me on the job from 9 to 5
Workin’ 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin’
Barely gettin’ by, it’s all takin’ and no givin’
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It’s enough to drive you crazy if you let it
9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fat promotion
Want to move ahead but the boss won’t seem to let me
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me, hmmm
