lunch table kareoke
Annie and I spent the better part of lunch today sounding like a commercial for one of those "hits of the 90's" compilation cd's. It's amazing (and a little scary) some of the songs I still know the words to, i.e. Color Me Bad's "I wanna sex you up" (yeah...I had that on cassette...).
We sang our way through a medley of oh so random songs like:
Ace of Base "I saw the sign" and that one that goes: "All that she wants is another baby, she's gone tomorrow boy" (Annie: what the hell was that song about anyway? she wants a baby and then she's leaving?)
Montell Jordan, "this is how we do it" ("so i reach for my 40 and I turn it up, designated driver take the keys to my truck......so tip up your cup, throw your hands up and lemme hear the party say, i'm kinda buzzed and it's all because...")
TLC ("so I creep, yeah, just keep it on the downlow....")
Janet ("like a moth to a flame burned by the fire..", "if I was your girl all the things I'd do to you...")
Violent Femmes ("when I'm a walking I strut my stuff and I'm so strung out"
-Annie: Was that song really about masturbation?)
Spice Girls (hahahaha)
Sean Something ("sunny came home..." - Me: didn't she come home and burn the house down or something?)
Paula Cole ("I don't wanna wait...") Ah Dawson's Creek.
Naughty by Nature ("you down w/opp? yeah you know me" -Me: I was so excited when I found out what opp stood for. Annie: wait, what does it stand for?
"hip hop hooray, ho, hey ho")
Soul Asylum ("run away train never coming back, wrong way on a one way track")
Areosmith (all those videos with Liv and Alicia)
Early Mariah (that video where she's wearing a flannel shirt on top of that mountain...priceless...)
Boys to Men ("motown philly back again...")
Some random group ("I want you to want me, I need you to need me, I'd love you to love me...")
That's all I remember but there were at least 20 more...I feel like we should get our own VH1 "I love the 90's" special.
My favorite discovery of the day:
The bi-racial cookie.
