titusnowlI have intellectualized the lyrics of several songs. Each is the opening line of the song. You will comment with the actual lyric, along with the title and performer.
1. The entirety of the pendulent cadavers are decapitated and flaccid; they hold no astonishment
2. They reached a decision and commenced to load their haversacks They made up their minds and they started packing - Fastball, "The Way" (emmycantbemeeko)
3. There is liberty inside, there is liberty externally There is freedom within, there is freedom without - Crowded House, "Don't Dream It's Over" (vespered)
4. I am incapable of obtaining gratification I can't get no satisfaction - Rolling Stones, "Satisfaction" (laurange)
5. We may cavort as we see fit; the attendance of your compatriots is inessential We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind - Men Without Hats, "Safety Dance" (brianjedi)
6. You bestir yourself in too tardy a fashion for attendance at your academy
