Song Word Association Game

We used to play this at band camp, and I thought some people here might enough it. How it works is the first person comes up with a word- for example, "god." The next person has to come up with a song that has the word "god" in it; I know this one is obvious, but you get the picture. Then that person posts the next word.

For my actual word, I'll pick "honor."

I propose a twist: the next word has to be from your song lyric. So, I'll use:

"He brought me ice cream!
Vanilla Ice cream! Imagine that!"

The next word is: IMAGINE

If I could talk to the animals, just IMAGINE it,
Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee,
IMAGINE talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah,
What a neat achievement it would be!

"Tenterfield Saddler" from THE BOY FROM OZ

And if you had questions bout sheep or flowers or dogs
You'd just ask the saddler, he lived without sin
They're building a library for him"

Ordinary mothers lead ordinary lives
Mop the floors and chop the parsley
Mend the clothes and tend the children
Ordinary mothers, like ordinary wives
Make the beds and bake the pies
And wither on the vine;
Not mine.
