Okay. Remember when you were young, and I gave a lyrics quiz?



Remember, half point for artist, half point for song title.

1. Heaven sent the promised land, looks all right from where I stand, cos I'm the man on the outside looking in.
Pink Floyd, "Wot's uh... the Deal?" from Obscured by Clouds
potch1214 = 1pt
ryoga77 = 0.5pt* -- right artist, but you named the album

2. In the dark of the city backwood, something stirs then slips away. Law and order in darkest Knightsbridge, crime and punishment at play.
Jethro Tull, "Jump Start" from Crest of a Knave
ryoga77 = full marks, 1 point*

3. They found James Ambrose dead in his cell. A gaping gash in his arm had drained him down to Hell. No one knew for sure if Ambrose was his name. They called him Yankee Sullivan in early days of fame.
Primus, "The Game of Fisticuffs" from The Brown Album
ryoga77 = 1pt*

4. If you need some good hot grillin', try my burger stand. If you need a slice of thrillin', I'm the baddest in the land.
ZZ Top, "Burger Man" from Recycler
ryoga77 = 1pt*

5. No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me with just a pocketful of hope... Money for dope... Money for rope...
John Lennon, "Gimme Some Truth" -- I would have also accepted Sam Phillips from her Martinis and Bikinis album, as that's where I first heard it.
potch1214 = 0.5pt
ryoga77 = 0.5pt* (I cannot verify Pearl Jam covering it, I haven't heard it.)

6. You open the suitcase behind old workings, to show off the magnum, you deafened the canyon. A comfort, a friend, only upstaged in the end by the Uzi machinegun. Does the recoil remind you... remind you of sex?
Roger Waters, "The Bravery of Being Out of Range" from Amused to Death
potch1214 = 1pt
ryoga77 = 1pt* plus a Boot to the Head for getting the name backwards

7. We walk away with memories, and clutch them to our hearts. We're disembodied entities, we move in fits and starts.
David Gilmour, "All Lovers Are Deranged" from About Face
potch1214 = 1pt
ryoga77 = 0pt* -- wrong artist, right album

8. I have always been here. I have always looked out from behind these eyes.
Pink Floyd, "A New Machine Part 1" from A Momentary Lapse of Reason
potch1214 = 1pt
ryoga77 = 0.5pt *

9. Tooth for tooth, eye for an eye. Sell your soul just to buy buy buy.
Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Crossfire" from In Step
potch1214 = 1pt
ryoga77 = 1pt*

10. Boy, this punch is a trip, It’s o.k. in my book. Here, take a sip. Maybe little heavy on the fruit. Ah, here comes the dip. You may kiss the cook. Let me show you honey, it’s easy - look. You take a fork and spike 'em -- Say, did you try these ? So glad you like ’em, the secret’s in the cheese
Dire Straits, "My Parties" from On Every Street
ryoga77 = 0.5pt* -- Mark Knopfler was the leader of Dire Straits, a band that is no more.

Totals:
potch1214 is the winner on this one.
*ryoga77 may have looked good with this one, but since he admitted that he googled the answers, I cannot give him the credit. It was rather evident that he did that with the way he wrote his answers.



New quiz by Wednesday!
