The Worst Songs of All Time...That Perfectly Describe Your Life
This song is craptastically crapified. It couldn't possibly be a bigger pile of 3rd rate music with 4th rate maudlin lyrics. It's presumptuous psuedo-operatic tones and swells set to a pop genre just lend to it's overall crapification.

And yet it seems to fit me to a tee.



Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart



The ex used to listen to this song because it was so crappy (he also listened to ABBA interspersed among his Slipknot and Metallica collection). I found it on my iPod this morning and now I'm all bummed.

So what totally crappy songs describe your life?

Edited to add: it's how she thinks I'm going to feel about her.

4. Ain't that Lonely Yet by Dwight Yoakam
She says she's afraid this will be how our story ends, with this song being from my point of view:


You keep calling me
On the telephone
You say you're all alone
Well that's real sad
And you keep leavin'
Notes stuck on my door
Guess you're hungry for some more
Girl that's too bad

CHORUS:
Cuz I ain't that lonely yet
No I ain't alone again
After what you put me through
Oh I ain't that lonely yet

Once there was this
Spider in my bed
I got caught up in her web
Of love and lies
She put her chains around my heart and soul
Never to let go
Oh but I survived

(CHORUS)

Nothing left you can do to try and bring me back
Cuz everything you do
Just brings me down, oh yeah and I

(CHORUS x3)

7. After considering my reply to mctatas Meridith Brooks song ...
I also have to admit, that as an egg-laying mammal, I find your song sexy as hell also.

5. this one...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M60cl7bKCMw

.Chorus:
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
