Song meme extreme, part 2!

Time for the second part, wherein I cross off all the ones that people have guessed.

The remaining seven songs include three bonus points. The contest is clearly still wide-open.

Also, the most-guessed song? Joy to the World by Three Dog Night.


First, the open songs:

4. I'm gonna stamp my feet until the policeman comes

7. He'd just come along, scoop them under his arm like that

8. There's people there who'll hurt you because of who you are

12. And I knew it was time... to move on

15. Santa, he's a big fat fuck
Ben Folds Five - Bizarre Christmas Incident
identified by themudgirl's brother.

22. Feasting on bums that sleep in the park

26. There's no cure, there's no answer


Now, the guessed songs:

1. She knows the future like the palm of your hand
Crash Test Dummies - The Psychic - BONUS POINT

2. Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
Led Zeppelin - All My Love

5. I'm a rocketship on my way to Mars, on a collision course
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
