Got this idea from 'Uncle Liam' - he mentioned that he tries to slip NO lyrics into conversations with clients; so do I - so heres a game we can all play (shades of that old 'Why Don't You' program there)

Each day try to fit in lyrics from one specific NO track into your conversation - then post the quote here.

Lets start with an easy one: Who’s Joe?

Hey Joe what you doing? It seems like it's all going wrong There's a storm in the sky passing over And it looks like it's going to be strong

You've got eyes like an old wounded soldier They cry tears to be lost in the wind

Hey Joe Hey Joe Hey Joe What are you gonna do?

I'll look for you And I'll get you home Wherever you go Whatever you do I've got to find you I've got to find you (Whatever I do)

I'll look for you And I'll take you there Wherever you go Whatever you do I've got to find you Whatever I do (Whatever I do)

Hey Joe what you doing? They say you don't care anymore You had your heart broke by a woman Now it doesn't work anymore She said that you had it coming That you were no good from the start

Hey Joe Hey Joe Hey Joe It's time to go home

I'll look for you And I'll get you home Wherever you go Whatever you do I've got to find you I've got to find you (Whatever I do)

I'll look for you And I'll take you there Wherever you go Whatever you do I've got to find you Whatever I do (Whatever I do) Whatever I do (Whatever I do) Whatever I do (Whatever I do) Whatever I do (Whatever I do) Whatever I do (Whatever I do)

I've used: "I don't believe in reincarnation because I refuse to come back as a bug or as a rabbit" in conversations about religion with others. I know it's not really a lyric, but I love that line.

One girl actually got the reference once.

How does it feel To work all day and night Hearing old ladies complaining No buttermilk in sight

And I thought I was mistaken And I thought you'd set me straight But I find out this here fish sandwich Is three months out of date

I see a Corvair in the lot I can and shall obey The fine young lady that drives it Even though she never gives me any play

And I thought I heard you calling As I walked down the aisle But I thought I heard you say "Trevor, you are fired"

Sadly enough I use that a lot aswell, no one has ever got it though, but then everyone i work with is at least 20 years older or 15 years younger than me, not a lot of hope of anyone getting any No lyrics but it's a good game.

I don't think many people get my signiture either

"Don't put your finger on the button" always reminds me of a Ren & Stimpy episode...

"DON'T TOUCH IT! It's the HISTORY ERASER button, you FOOL!"
