Mixed Up Manhatten Melodies

[Beth C]

Ok, time for a musical game.

I'm going to post lyrics from a muppet song. Problem is, it got mixed up and you have to be the one to set it right! You also have to name the song title and who sung it.

Example:

The lovers, the dreamers, and me.
Why are there so many
And only illusions
So we've been told
Songs about rainbows?
Some choose to believe it
And what's on the other side
Rainbows have visions
Someday we'll find it
Rainbows have nothing to hide
I know they're wrong wait and see
The rainbow connection

Correct answer would be:

Why are there so many
Songs about rainbows?
And what's on the other side
Rainbows have visions
And only illusions
Rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told
And some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong wait and see
Someday we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

The Rainbow Connection - Kermit the Frog

The poster with the correct answer gets to do the next one!

Got it? Next post starts the game!

First Puzzle:

When you know there's someone
I can go through the motions, thats all I can do
You can be on your own one frog team
But its so much more fun
you don't always need help
But I can't get along without you.
who will always be there.. to be part of your dream
When you're all by yourself
When you know there's someone

What is the song name and singer?

~Beth C

[Daffyfan2003]

I think that's supposed to be "Can't Get Along Without You" by Kermit and Robin.

You got that part right.. now can you put the lyrics in the correct order?

Hint: Use Google

Well, I put the lyrics together without usng Google, do I get the next go, or does Daffy? :P

[Beauregard]

Oh wait, forget that. It says that all you have to do is name the title and singer...sorry...

Bea:zany:{And I said, Look Beth, I'm all mixed up the wrong bark without a paddle}anice

[Beth C]

Actually Beau, the rules state you have to put the lyrics in the correct order AND name the song and singer. Seeing how you finally straightened them out..

You can post the next song!

Go for it! ;)

[Daffyfan2003]

~Beth C

I'm sorry, Beth. I was away for a week and didn't see your last post. I'll check Google when I get a chance and see if I can find the correct order for those lyrics.

~Beth C
Ok, I'll do another.

Aet rof owt,
and uoy rof em
Owt rof aet,
Em rof uoy

Ok, a rather confusing one, but it an actual Muppet song sung by two Muppets. What song? What Muppets? and what are the words?

[Beth C]

I'm sorry, Beth. I was away for a week and didn't see your last post. I'll check Google when I get a chance and see if I can find the correct order for those lyrics.


I've been wondering where you drifted off too.. Muppets on the Move ended while you were gone and someone else took Kermit in the new Role Play. :( You make a good Kermit.

Ok, Beau.. that song is Tea for two sung backwards by Rowlf and Lew Zealand. :)

It was a funny skit.

~Beth C

[Beauregard]

Cor-ect!

But, er, arn't you meant to put the words into correct order before you get another go?

Beau

[Beth C]

Ooops... that's right..

Tea for two...
and two for tea..
Me for you..
and you for me.

;)

~Beth C

[Beauregard]

No, no, Beth. You got it wrong, it's

Eat rof owt,
Owt rof eat,
Em rof ouy,
And Ouy rof em.

Never mind, your go anyway.

Several months later..........


Can I post something?? Just it seems no one has said anything since July 30th. Here's one...

A can corner fire feel in it street you
And by fire getting going home its the warmed
Its Christmas Feels find it like Love True Wherever You

[GelflingWaldo]

A can corner fire feel in it street you
And by fire getting going home its the warmed
Its Christmas Feels find it like Love True Wherever You
Is it It Feels Like Christmas by The Ghost of Christmas Present

I think I got it but it does not fit quite right, some words are missing (marked in red), other you have don't fit into the song (listed below). But I can't think of any other song that fits, it so close I think it's right.

It's in the singing of a street corner choir
It's going home and getting warm by the fire
It's true
Wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas

Extra words: warmed fire can you feel it



If I'm right, here is another one for you all to sink you teeth into:


Someone else had a wish, but I had the most coat
Then a butterfly wish that a lady and I had silk house
But I was on a sea of stone.
Now I wish that I see the color of all that I am,
I wish I looked happy now

I don't know the sky there goes down to the fair.
I most of a butterfly can be silk but still a coat

Now I have me,
Now I don't have me,
But I don't have a house of all happy sea of sky
I have a stone of I
But of the lady to be, I'm me.

:confused:

[christyb]

Someone else had a wish, but I had the most coat
Then a butterfly wish that a lady and I had silk house
But I was on a sea of stone.
Now I wish that I see the color of all that I am,
I wish I looked happy now

I don't know the sky there goes down to the fair.
I most of a butterfly can be silk but still a coat

Now I have me,
Now I don't have me,
But I don't have a house of all happy sea of sky
I have a stone of I
But of the lady to be, I'm me.

Allrighty here's the solution. Or as well as I can remember the song. It's Gonzo's Wishing Song

I wish I had a coat of silk, the color of the sky.
I wish I had a lady fair, and then a butterfly
I wish I had a house of stone that looked down on the sea
But most of all I wish that I was someone else but me.

(Madeleine cheers up Gonzo)

Now I don't have a coat of silk, but I still have the sky
Now I don't have a lady, but there goes a butterfly
Now I don't have a house of stone, but I can see the sea
Now most of all I know that I am happy to be me.
I'm happy to be me.

Ok next song.

Sun is full of laughter surprises, compares a spirit
The life comes up and I dear feel it lift my gift
It into me eyes with sweet, it fills me up with song
No look fills the up of love and with that I belong
Bless us all, who gather here
The place family I hold can
I family on path, everyday's knows home
And every Earth will bring me back from where I roam

So anyone know the answer??

[DanDanStrawberry]

Is it It Feels Like Christmas by The Ghost of Christmas Present

I think I got it but it does not fit quite right, some words are missing (marked in red), other you have don't fit into the song (listed below). But I can't think of any other song that fits, it so close I think it's right.

It's in the singing of a street corner choir
It's going home and getting warm by the fire
It's true
Wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas

Extra words: warmed fire can you feel it


Sorry, old chum!! But...
a) Havent seen the movie in years, which is a shame as it is a classic!
b) I wasnt that far off...forgive me for saying warmed rather than warm. Though I was way off on some!!

[GelflingWaldo]

And every Earth will bring me back from where I roam

So anyone know the answer??

Yup! Bless us all from MCC! Here's the real words...

Life is full of sweet surprises
Every day's a gift
The sun comes up
And I can feel it lift my spirit.
Fills me up with laughter
Fills me up with song
I look into the eyes of love
And know that I belong.

Bless us all
Who gather here
The loving family we hold dear
No place on Earth
Compares with home
And every path will
Bring me back from where I roam.
Bless us all with playful years
With noise games and joyful tears
We reach for you and we stand tall
And in our prayers and dreams
We ask you bless us all.
We reach for you and we stand tall
And in our prayers and dreams
We ask you bless us all.

(the extended version of course!!)
OK, I got one...

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good friends
Time to now, its go cos
Well that's OK, say I! Hey- but!
We'll know you- cos I see very soon!
(I see very soon)
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, good friends
Just like tomorrow and today
The blue the house and moon the big bear
For you will be waiting to play and come
And come to play
Come to and play
(Now bye!!)

[DanDanStrawberry]

Yay! I've stumped some people!

[christyb]

I know the song just not the lyrics. But I'll let someone else get it. I did the last puzzle before you.

[Kimp the Shrimp]

GoodBye Goodbye, Good Freinds Goodbye

Crazy as a Rocket, Notin' in my pocket

[That Announcer]

"Can You Picture That", Dr. Teeth

Everybody's lover, everybody's brother, I wanna be your lifetime

I just wish this song could be a sign
Shine on, shine on me
Music in my words
Learn to sing the golden sun to shine
Living in the dark
Shine on, shine on me
Sing it like a bird
At times I lose the spark

[Emosewa]

Oh I know that! It's "Shine on me" by Gobo.

At times I lose the spark
Living in the dark.
I just wish this song could be a sign.
Sing it like a bird,
Music in my words,
Learn to sing the golden sun to shine.
Shine on, shine on me
Shine on, shine on me.


Here's one:

Nothing in my pocket,
Can you picture that?
Grinning like a cheshire cat,
I think of milk and honey,
I wanna be your lifetime friend.
Something I can treasure,
I never think of money,
Everybody's lover, everybody's brother
I keep it in the rainbow's end.
I focus on the pleasure,
Crazy as a rocket,
Can you picture that?

Much More to Say
Saying Goodbye, Why is it Sad

Sounds behind us and hounds will find us
A bird in need is a friend indeed
Danger lurks at the crossroads
Take the horns by the bull
Shadows loom on the wall
So pull the eyes over the wool
So, catch a tail by the tiger
And death and taxes and all

[Emosewa]

"Catch the tail by the tiger" sung mostly by Gobo!^_^

Danger lurks at the crossroads
Shadows loom on the wall,
Sounds behind us and hounds will find us
And death and taxes and all.
So catch a tail by the tiger
Takes the horns by the bull
A bird in need is a friend indeed,
So pull the eyes over the wool.



Weep for the night, when he journeys out of sight
Friends always tell you good-bye
Weep for the day when a new friend comes your way
Friends always tell you good-bye
Weep while you play, for your friend will make you cry.
