Waitin' for bus number 99
Goin' to the store for hot dogs and wine
When all of a sudden, I felt real cold
And wound up in the belly of a big ol' UFO

Sitting in my car outside your house
'Member when you spilled Coke all over your blouse
T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs
We've been having fun all summer long

All Summer Long (1964)
-- The Beach Boys

Watched American Graffiti again last night and have this gem stuck in my head this morning (not a bad thing) ...

Feeling down 'n' dirty, feeling kinda mean
I've been from one to another extreme
It's time I had a good time, ain't got time to wait
I wanna stick around 'til I can't see straight

Double Vision (1978)
-- Foreigner

I resolved to call her up
A thousand times a day
And ask her if she'll marry me
In some old-fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reach the phone
Long before my tongue has tripped me
Must I always be alone?

Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic (1981)
-- The Police

You're a heartbreaker
Dream maker
Love taker
Don't you mess around with me

Well, some people say
I'm obnoxious and lazy
I'm uneducated
My opinion means nothin'*

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
And then he'll settle down, in some quiet little town
And forget about everything
