    Plum, that'd be "Want Ads" by some chick group Supremes-wannabees.

    "when the water is a risin'..." Black Oak Arkansas

    That song of yours , Comf, rings a bell but, Ifeel like a DUMB DUMB DIDDY for not knowing it.

    Think Traveling Willburys.

    Life's a bitch...
    You take your chances
    Too many questions
    And not enough answers

    Valis,

    Can't place the song, but I second the notion!

    Comf,

    Plum beat me ,but I,m sure I would have had it after that last bite had I not thought of the Willburys and become frightened by all those dark glasses.

    Dang,COMF,another one I can't believe I missed.

    Try these...

    1-So we cheated and we lied and we tested
    And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do

    2-She is dancing...away from you now
    She was just a wish...she was just a wish
    And her memory is all that is left for you now

    3-There's just one more thing that I need to know
    If this is love why does it scare me so

    4-But "happily ever after" fails
    And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales

    5-I'll do my time
    Keeping you off my mind but there's moments
    That I find, I'm not feeling too strong

    Cowboy

    Cowboy, gotta nail #4, The End of the Innocence, Don Henley, before I head off to bed. Some of the other lines have a vaguely familiar ring and will have to percolate a while.
