Lots of Music Trivia because I'm really freaking bored!

Okay so it's been over a year since the last version of music trivia, but this one is going to be fabulous. I may just be overusing the word fabulous, but that's okay. Anyway, you should know the rules by now, but just in case you don't, they are very simple. Identify the song by the lyrics given (song titles not included in lyrics), leave a comment with the TITLE AND ARTIST...if there are multiple artists use the one you know, unless of course there is a VERY well known version of the song by one artist who really made the song well known, then please use the most well-known artist!!

Example: Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup...
Correct answer: The Beatles - Across the Universe, incorrect answer: Fiona Apple - Across the Universe, Rufus Wainwright - Across the Universe.

Birfday!
Happy birthday to meeeeeeeeeeee!
It has so far been a pretty decent birthday...and it's nice because unlike the last two years, I haven't felt like I'm having to cram in everything I want to do/everyone I want to see either, hoopa!!
I had to take my car in this morning - so blah to that, here's hoping that there won't be lots of money owed in the morning! Then we went to look at a house...no house buying in the near future, no worries. Then Taste of Thai for lunch, up to Crooked Lake for the afternoon...
Major props to the road crew who put a detour about FIVE MILES before the actual road that the detour is for? And then when you get to the road five miles later you haven't paid attention to the detour because it was five miles ago. And then when they say "road closed" they REALLY mean road closed. Like, local traffic only, and then BAM! There is NO ROAD. It was crazy. But funny. Always an adventure....
After returning from Crooked Lake, then mongolian grill for din-din, Cold Stone Creamery for dessert, where this year they actually had cake batter ice cream so I could have my birthday cake remix.
All in all, a good birthday. I can't believe I'm 23!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And yes, there are still two more wonderful vacation days before having to return to *grumble* work on Friday for my LAST DAY!!! EEEP!
Thanks to everyone who left me facebook/myspace/AIM messages for my birthday - you all rock!! :)

WTF???
My cat eats PAPER!! No, I'm NOT kidding! I had my apartment newsletter lying on the floor (I know, I'm totally a neat freak - haha yeah right) and I was playing with kitty, and all the sudden she takes a BITE out of the newsletter and EATS it! As if that ribbon wasn't enough....
Well, I guess she's getting her fiber....snicker snicker.
That is all.
Oh wait.
Only FIVE DAYS TILL MY BIRTHDAY!!
Don't forget :)
