Hall & Oates

Some of you may be aware of my recent obsession with all things 80's.  Specifically 80's music.  Much more specifically, Hall & Oates.  I mean, who wouldn't want some of this right?



Don't deny it.

That stache.

The feathered bangs.

I'm getting phantom shoulder pad and scrunchy pains.

So, as I sat down to do another post about our adventures in Sedona last month all that was running through my mind were H&O lyrics.  Please bear with me.  

Our trip to Out of Africa Wildlife Park:


To the Tune of "Maneater"--
She'll only come out at night
The lean and hungry type
Nothing is new, I've seen her here before
Watching and waiting--

I wouldn't if I were you
I know what she can do
She's deadly man, she could really rip your world apart

Switching to "Kiss is on my list" tune here---
(Because your kiss) your kiss I can't resist
(Because your kiss is what I miss) when I turn off the light

(Yup,....you are seeing what you think you're seeing.....Memzy feeding a giraffe a carrot.....from her mouth)

Queue "You make my dreams come true" tunage (one of my personal faves) specifically as you see Char Char in this pic--

Well well you (ooh ooh ooh ooh) you make my dreams come true (you you) you
(you you)


What I want, I've got
But it might be hard to handle
Like the flame that burns the candle
The candle feeds the flaaaaaaame

Well well well you (ooh ooh ooh ooh) ooh you make my dreams come true (you
you you you) oh yeah
When they're messin' with a dreamer
I can laugh it in the face




Pushing Jukebox button to the tune of "Private Eyes"--
I see you, you see me
watch you blowin' the lines when you're making a scene
Oh girl, you've got to know
Private Eyes
they're watching you
they see your every move
Private Eyes
they're watching you

Hitting fast forward on my cassette tape in the boombox to 
"Say it Isn't So"--

(Say it) 
Who propped you up when you were stopped 
Low motivation had you on the ground 

I know your first reaction 
You slide away hide away, goodbye 
You have to say it isn't so  (It isn't so)  I say it isn't so, oh, no  (It isn't so) 
Now I dare you to not go and look up those song geniuses on iTunes right now.
Double Dog Dare.

LOVED the pictures. Hall and Oats lyrics--goofy animals--even goofier kids--made for a great post. It was such a great trip.
