Queen – Play The Game Lyrics 8 years ago
One of my favorites. I really like how there are subtle changes in tone or mood in the song, from cheery to ominous. They lyrics are also sometimes earnest and sometimes flippant in regards to falling in love. Reminds me a little bit of Ring of Fire (Johnny Cash) in certain ways, especially when it comes to the dual nature of love or dating.

Iron & Wine – Sing Song Bird Lyrics 10 years ago
Songmeanings edited my original submission... clearly the lyrics are wrong.

Give me your shoulder, I'm a sing song bird
My savior says that I've the words
That map across the daylight blinding you

Chicken bone with a ten-cent bunk
When Jesus spoke, though I was drunk,
Untied my shoe and told me what to do

Warn the boys above the dimmer rooms
And try to woo them all with the cheap perfume
Gloom light glitters the pathway to the fall

Warn the girls about the dimmer stars
And try to woo them all with the cheap guitars
The morning bathes glitter on us all

Warn the boys above the timber rooms
And try to woo them all with the cheap perfume
The sun don't sweat the souls that get the call

Warn the girls about the dimmer stars
And try to woo them all with the cheap guitars
Dear Lord give me the strength to shade you all
