    For some reason all day ive been singing Opportunities by the Pet Shop Boys,anyone else get this where you hear a song and you keep singing it all day :o:D

    OPPORTUNITIES Lyrics

    (Money)
    I've had enough of scheming and messing around with jerks
    My car is parked outside, I'm afraid it doesn't work
    I'm looking for a partner, someone who gets things fixed
    Ask yourself this question: Do you want to be rich?

    I've got the brains, you've got the looks
    Let's make lots of money
    You've got the brawn, I've got the brains
    Let's make lots of money

    You can tell I'm educated, I studied at the Sorbonne
    Doctored in mathematics, I could have been a don
    I can program a computer, choose the perfect time
    If you've got the inclination, I have got the crime

    Oh, there's a lot of opportunities
    If you know when to take them, you know?
    There's a lot of opportunities
    If there aren't, you can make them
    Make or break them

    I've got the brains, you've got the looks
    Let's make lots of money (Oooooooh)
    You've got the brawn, I've got the brain
    Let's make lots of money

    (Money Money Money)
    Money (Money Money)

    (Aaaah ah ah ah ah aaaah)
    Money (Money)
    (Aaaah ah ah ah ah aaaah - Di du da di da bu di ba)
    (Money)

    You can see I'm single-minded, I know what I could be
    How'd you feel about it, come and take a walk with me?
    I'm looking for a partner, regardless of expense
    Think about it seriously, you know, it makes sense

    Let's (Got the brains)
    Make (Got the looks)
    Let's make lots of money (Oohh money)
    (Let's) You've got the brawn
    (Make) I've got the brain
    Let's make lots of money (Oohh money)
    I've got the brains (Got the brains)
    You've got the looks (Got the looks)
    Let's make lots of money (Oohh money)
    Money

    The songs we learn in voice class. :rolleyes: They're all in Italian, so it's not like I know the exact meaning of what I'm singing.. just the pitch with the sounds...

    Not singing it, but I've had Nine Inch Nails - The Hand That Feeds in my head all day... not complaining because it's a great song :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,391 ✭✭✭arbeitsscheuer


    Stupid f**king song from the Champion's League ads is often stuck in my head... Btw, if anyone knows the name of the song/artist please PM, it's driving me bananas.

    Recently I've been humming/softly-singing Coldplay's Fix You, and that's pleasant enuff...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 664 ✭✭✭Nimrod's Son


    "When Cameron was in Egypt's land, let my Cameron go" from Ferris Bueller's Day Off (:D yes, it's still making me laugh, even now) and Head On by The Jesus And Mary Chain. Go figure.
