I Recall a Box of Rags that Someone Gave Us

Hell of a week, isn’t it? It’s time for a new Friday 10! Last week we saw 5 of the 10 identified as well as the extra special bonus point! Frodis Caper and Fred each claimed two, and Thud pulled out one lyric and the bonus point to claim a three-way tie! The answers are now posted on the original entry, and on YouTube as a playlist!

Among the songs last week — and, as the first one, the one that set the theme for the blondest Friday 10 ever — was comedy diva Julie Brown with “‘Cause I’m a Blonde.”

Let’s get into this week’s 10! The lyrics are below, get in the comments and identify the songs and artists! Remember, the answer should come from your own brain (not Google, Bing, Kagi, and definitely not ChatGPT or Claude), and if you identify any artist that has performed the song (and that I can find evidence of online), I’ll give you credit even if it’s not the artist I was listening to. Let’s go!

1. Does she love me for who I am? Or does she want to put my brain in a can?
2. I’d kick it with who I wanted, and I’d never get confronted for it
3. Your teacher could become a sardine, your dentist could turn into a queen
4. Someone painted “April Fool” in big black letters on a Dead End sign
5. I’d like a man to nibble on my ear, but I’ll admit no man has bit
6. We never know where life will take us — I know it’s just a ride on the wheel
7. Why should I be lonely every night, when I can be with you
8. All I see are stilettos — I guess I never got the memo
9. Who can satisfy their lustful habits? I’m not a rabbit
10. I’d be in the sun all day, but I’m sweeping out a warehouse in West LA
