The wild dogs cry out in the night,
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company.
I know that I must do what's right,
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti.

There you are another eighties wonder lyric.

I have to turn off 'Big Yellow Taxi' 5 seconds before the finish to avoid Joni Mitchell doing that bass-baritone-and-forced-laugh thing she does right at the end of the song, otherwise I get stabby.

Oh fuck, yes. A special place in hell too for Peter Sarstedt for his "A-ha-ha-ha" in "Where do you go to my lovely".

That particular crock of shit is the archetype of the whole forced lyric genre. The entire fucking song is a travesty, but as a sampler: 

When you go on your summer vacation
You go to Juan-les-Pines
With your carefully designed topless swimsuit
You get an even suntan, on your back and on your legs.

Still, I'll bet Frank likes it.
