Bowl Season Music Game

[chymechowder]

Let’s test the lyric knowledge (and musical taste) of refstripes posters.   

ALL SONG TITLES CONTAIN THE NAME OF A TEAM IN ONE OF THIS YEAR’S BOWLS.

Name the song title and the artist.....Varying levels of difficulty.

POP WARNER

1.Time keeps on slippin slippin slippin / Into the future

2. And all this science I don’t understand / It’s just my job five days a week

3.  I don't wanna be a tiger/Cause tigers play too rough
     I don't wanna be a lion/Cause lions aint the kind You love enough

JV

4. You been runnin' all over town, now
    Oh, I guess I have to put your flat feet on the ground

5.  Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
     Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall


VARSITY
6.  Every girl wants you to be her man
     But I'll wait, my dear, 'til it's my turn
     I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that

7.  I've had my fun and now its time to
   Serve your conscience overseas
   Coming in fast, over me

DIII

8.  They rally round the family
     With a pocket full of shells

9.  He’s licking his lips / He’s ready to win
     On the hunt tonight / For love at first sting

10.  Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
       You don't know what it's like to listen to you fears

DII

11.  Some folks say there ain't no [xxx] in arkansas
       Some folks never seen a [xxx] at all

12.   Roll me over and turn me around
        Let me keep spinning til I hit the ground

13.  I'm a sexual innuendo / In this burned out paradise
       If you turn me on to anything / You better turn me on tonight

DI

14.  [hint:  ACC school]

       Counting stars by candlelight, all are dim but one is bright;
       The spiral light of Venus, rising first and shining best

15.  [hint:  Big 12]

       When I saw you say goodbye to your friends and smile
       I thought that it was well understood
       That you'd be comin' back in a little while
       I didn't know that you were sayin' goodbye for good.

#5 Mother Ocean by Jimmy Buffett.  This must be wrong.  Where is the team name in the song title?

The song title is "Pirate Looks at Forty", but I don't see the team name in there either.

East Carolina.

Oh, and "The Tide is High" wasn't Abba. Blondie did the most famous version.

[Grant - AR]

Let's make this a little different.  According to chymechowder, "ALL SONG TITLES CONTAIN THE NAME OF A TEAM IN ONE OF THIS YEAR’S BOWLS."  Here are the song titles and artists...I think they are correct.  What are the teams in each of these?

• Fly Like An Eagle - Steve Miller Band
• Rocket Man - Elton John (or a really bad version by William Shatner  )
• Teddy Bear - Elvis Presley
• Mustang Sally - Wilson Pickett
• Pirate Look At Forty - Jimmy Buffett
• The Tide Is High - Blondie or Abba (or a few others)
• Orange Crush - REM
• Bulls on Parade - Rage Against The Machine
• Rock You Like A Hurricane - Scorpions
• Hey Bulldog - The Beatles
• Bears - Lyle Lovett
• Cowboy Song - Golden Smog
• Rocket Queen - Guns N' Roses
• Terrapin Station - Grateful Dead
• One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later) - Bob Dylan

No, I didn't know all of these songs.  I had to look them up.

No. 2 is Rocket Man for Toledo
