Name that lyric

by Guest Mon Feb 10, 2014 11:17 pm

OK going to see if people want to revive another old favourite in the forum games stake.

For those not familiar with it

I will post a lyric
people will try to identify song and singer (preferably without google)
the first person that gets it right (confirmed by the person who posted the lyric)
then posts their own lyric
people will try to identify

and so on and so forth. If a lyric is not identified the person who put it up gets to put another one (hopefully a bit easier).

I will start with something that is I hope easy

Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns

HF doesn't get it ... I'll supply a lyric:

"Oh and Mom would be fixing up something in the kitchen, fresh biscuits or hot apple pie/
And I'd spend all day long in the basement, torturing rats with a hacksaw and pulling the wings off of flies."
