On That Note - In My Room

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

Roxy Music - Street Life

"Education is an important key, yes
But the good life's never won by degrees, no
Pointless passing through Harvard or Yale
Only window shopping, it's strictly no sale"

"...and I begged her not to walk out that door."

 

[cycloner29]

"You wanna come an' I'll meet you at the door"



"See dark shadows, On the walls"

Odd, one popped into my head because I have the old vinyl album Blood on The Tracks. Off campus poker night music back in the day.

The festival was over, the boys were all plannin' for a fall
The cabaret was quiet except for the drillin' in the wall.

Also has several "door" references.

“And I'd walk out that door.”

Elton John - Burn Down the Mission

"Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep"

In my room or in your room. Just going by what the title talks about.

Demon I am and face I peel
See your skin turned inside out
'Cause, I've gotta have you on my wall
Gotta have you on my wall, 'cause

I want your skull...

A song made for this thread...

 

[20eyes]

You run around and spray paint
Graffiti on everybody's wall
You think that's bitchin' man?
That ain't nothing at all!!!

...
Open up the window, let some air into this room
I think I'm almost chokin' from the smell of stale perfume
And that cigarette you're smokin' 'bout scare me half to death
Open up the window, sucker, let me catch my breath

Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
"That ain't the way to have fun, son"
"That ain't the way to have fun, son"

The radio is blastin', someone's knockin' at the door
I'm lookin' at my girlfriend - she's passed out on the floor
I seen so many things I ain't never seen before
Don't know what it is - I don't wanna see no more
...

...
This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
...



or strangely compelling...



or even...

“In through stained-glass ceilings”

 

[cyhiphopp]

Aw man you stole my Yuck song!

 

[cyclones500]

Aw man you stole my Yuck song!

Sorry!

 

[cyclones500]

I think only one occurrence of each, but gets 4 of the 5 theme words.

“Look up on the wall / there on the floor / under the pillow / behind the door.”
“Somewhere there's a hole in a window pane.”
