I've been looking, but so far no luck. I thought I had it, but what applied to 4 songs, didn't apply to the 5th.

Tell us what you were thinking, after all, maybe one of the songs is wrongly listed [I haven't checked them all].

Four of the songs don't have the standard rhyming pattern usually found in songs. Only "She came in through the bathroom window does".

Well, at least you've given it some thought, John & Rickeap !

Thanks !

OK - a 'reveal' is called for now.

The title of each song appears in the first line of the lyric & is not repeated.
