A conversation using nothing but song lyrics

There's a bathroom on the right...;)

Nauga,
who could've sworn...
 
737 comin' out of the sky
Won't you take me down to Memphis
On a midnight ride...
 
let the midnight special shine it's light on me
 
After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine.
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream
 
After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine.
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream
Calling sister Midnight
can you hear me call?

Nauga,
and something good out of Detroit
 
Can't you hear me knockin' on your window
Can't you hear me knockin' on your door
Can't you hear me knockin' down your dirty street, yeah
 
Can't you hear me knockin' on your window
Can't you hear me knockin' on your door
Can't you hear me knockin' down your dirty street, yeah

'Cause your love, is better
than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock,
on wood, baby, oooh ooh oooh oooh ooh, baby
 
Knock three times
On the ceiling if you want me
Twice on the pipes
If the answer is no...
 
your love is as cold as ice
 
Games people play, you take it or you leave it
Things that they say, are not right
If I promise you the moon and the stars, would you believe it
Games people play in the middle of the night
 
'Cause your love, is better
than any love I know
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock, knock,
on wood, baby, oooh ooh oooh oooh ooh, baby

Oh yeah! It was like lightning,
everybody was fighting
and the music was soothing
and they all started grooving.

Nauga,
blitzed
 
Oh, says Red Molly to James, "That's a fine motorbike
A girl could feel special on any such like"
Says James to Red Molly, "My hat's off to you
It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952"
 
Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way
 
Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way

Took a look down a westbound road right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two wheeler I was tired of my own voice
Took a bead on the northern plains and just rolled that power on

Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City stopped in a bar to have a brew
Met a girl and we had a few drinks and I told her what I'd decided to do
She looked out the window a long long moment then she looked into my eyes
She didn't have to say a thing I knew what she was thinkin'

Roll roll me away won't you roll me away tonight
I too am lost I feel double crossed
And I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right
We never even said a word we just walked out and got on that bike
And we rolled
And we rolled clean out of sight
 
Johnny jumped in his Datsun,
drove out on the expressway
ran head-on into a semi.
His guitar's all that's left now.

Nauga,
who's got a gut feeling
 
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping,
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.
 
Take me home, country roads
To the place I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mama
Take me home
Country roads...
 
First gear, it's alright,
second gear, lean right,
third gear, hang on tight.
 
You ain't seen nothing yet,
b-b-b-baby,
you ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet
 
You get up every mornin'
To the alarm clock's warnin'
Take the 8:15 into the city...
 
I keep my nose on the grindstone, I work hard every day
Might get a little tired on the weekend, after I draw my pay
But I'll go back workin, come Monday morning I'm right back with the crew
I'll drink a little beer that evening,
Sing a little bit of these working man blues
 
Up every mornin' just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain (yeah, yeah)
 
I get up at seven, yeah
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin'
Yes, I'm workin' all the time
 
workin in the coal mine goin down, down
 
Now I get up around whenever, I used to get up on time.
 
Girls - to do the dishes
Girls - to clean up my room
Girls - to do the laundry
Girls - and in the bathroom
Girls, that's all I really want is girls
Two at a time I want girls
With new wave hairdos I want girls
I ought to whip out my girls, girls, girls, girls, girls!
 
Welcome my friend! --- Welcome tooooo the machine.
 
"Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you..."
