LOL...ok, out of the 11 songs (one is an instrumental but oh well..)I know by hard from this list, here's an easy one for Friday:

(Lil Jon/Snap Yo Fangers)..lol: Snap your fingers, do your stare...you can do it all by yourself let me see ya do it....AYYYYYY...let me see ya do it...AYYYYYY....

OK, here's another one (Van Halen/Jump): I get up, and nothing gets me down.
You got it tough. I've seen the toughest around. And I know, baby, just how you feel. You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real, Oh can't you see me standing here, I've got my back against the record machine, I ain't the worst that you've seen. Oh can't you see what I mean? Might as well jump. JUMP!...go ahead and jump...get it and jump...JUMP!

OK--last one, get your Bic lighter (Mary J. Blige/Not Gon' Cry): I was your lover and your secretary, working every day of the week, was at the job when no one else was there, helping you get on your feet, eleven years of sacrifice, and you can leave at the drop of a dime, swallowed my fears, stood by your side, I shoulda left your a@@ a thousand times. I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' shed no tears... (((wearing Mary's shades)))
