I give you a list of words, and you give me song lyrics that contains them. This time all the songs I have in mind are by a particular songwriter, and I&#8217;ll award 25 Bragging Units to the first person to guess the songwriter in question, one BU for each word for guessing the song I am thinking of, and two BUs for a different song by (or associated with) that songwriter in which the word appears. I think this will be easier than the Stephen Sondheim one; I know at least a few of y&#8217;all are fans enough of this person to sing along, and many of the songs are quite well known indeed.\n<p><strong>The List<\/strong>: I&#8217;ll try to keep this up-to-date. If a word is in <strong>bold<\/strong>, nobody has come up with nothing. If a word is <strike>struck through<\/strike>, some Gentle Reader has come up with the song that YHB was thinking of. If a word is in <strong>italics<\/strong>, some GR has come up with a different song by or at least associated with the songwriter YHB has in mind containing that word.
