I met my love by the gas works wall.
Dreamed a dream by the old canal.
Kissed a girl by the factory wall.
Dirty old town, Dirty old town.

Clouds a drifting across the moon.
Cats a prowling on their beat.
Spring’s a girl in the street at night.
Dirty old town, Dirty old town.

Dirty Old Town
The Pogues (1985), Rum Sodomy & the Lash

I don’t care if Monday’s black.
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack.
Thursday never looking back.
It’s Friday I’m in love.

Monday you can hold your head.
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed.
Or Thursday watch the walls instead.
It’s Friday I’m in love.

Friday I’m In Love
The Cure (1992), Wish

Finished with my woman ‘cause she couldn’t help me with my mind.
people think I’m insane because I am frowning all the time.
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy.
Think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t find something to pacify.

Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah.

Paranoid
Black Sabbath (1970), Paranoid

Oh the weather outside is frightful.
But the fire is so delightful.
And since we’ve no place to go.
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn’t show signs of stopping.
And I’ve bought some corn for popping.
The lights are turned way down low.
Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Let It Snow!
Vaughn Monroe (1945)
