ljdqOur brief flirtation with the "daily" part of "LJDQ" continues! More quizzing! More answers! More gin and pudding!
1. Fun with lyrics! Name the band and the song:
You know I work all day to get you money to buy you things
And it's worth it just to hear you say you're gonna give me everything
So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone
You know I feel okay
"'I feel Okay'? Masturbation feels 'okay,' and it's fucking free. Yes, you see what I did there." -
