Hi boris - no need to apologise, we're pretty slow on new quizzes during this summer slowdown.

#1 If I Were A Carpenter - Pete Seger?
#19 Private Dancer - Tina Turner

Subject: Re: Occupations Quiz

Written By: maddog167 on 08/15/03 at 01:42 a.m.

I just got #3 as well, how could I miss this!?

It's Police and Thieves by The Clash (or the original was Junior Murvin).

Actually, on reflection, I always thought it went "and noone try to stop them in any way"

Subject: Re: Occupations Quiz

Written By: boris66au on 08/15/03 at 02:47 a.m.

Hey Maddog,

Correct with all. :)

The version of Police And Theives i've got it by Junior Murvin (fantastic song) I just listened to it and the lyrics on that are No one try (or tried) to stop it in anyway...not sure if the Clash's version's different though. I didn't realise they'd done a cover of it, i'll have to see if I can get hold of a copy.

Hey karen,
Correct with 5 :)

I suppose a tree could be job somewhere but that's still not the song i'm thinking of...didn't realise so many songs had those lyrics, maybe I should post some more!
