On That Note: Nothing Up My Sleeve

[pourcyne]

In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I see your dirty face, hide behind your collar

 

[MeanDean]

Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain

 

[pourcyne]

He got a custom Continental
He got an Eldorado too
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun
He got a razor in his shoe

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I've got two tickets in my pocket, now baby, we're gonna disappear

 

[MeanDean]

Chantilly lace and a pretty face
And a pony tail hangin' down

 

[pourcyne]

Lemme tell ya somethin'
If you didn't come to party
Don't bother knockin' on my door, oh, uh, ah
I got a lion in my pocket
And, baby, he's ready to roar, yeah, yeah
Everybody's got a bomb
We could all die any day, oh
But before I'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away
Oh

Does a hem (of a garment) count?

For some reason my mind went right to this one:

 

[MeanDean]

Pow'ful motor and some hideaway wings
Push in on the button and you will hear her sing

 

[pourcyne]

In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved one so
In the early morning rain with no place to go

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket

[pourcyne]

What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
Welcome back to the age of jive

 

[Fishhead]

Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
No one remembered a thing when they saw him again
That's how it is 'til the end

 

[pourcyne]

Deutsche Marks or dollars
American Express will do nicely, thank you
Let me loosen up your collar
Tell me, do you wanna see me do the shimmy again?

 

[cyclones500]

“Empty out your pockets.”

 

[pourcyne]

Stiff all in the collar
Fluffy in the face
Chit chat chatter tryin'
Stuffy in the place
Thank you for the party
But I could never stay
Many thangs is on my mind
Words in the way

 

[pourcyne]

I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe
