This morning we played Har Mar Superstar's "Lady You Shot Me", which starts loud and proud with the lyrics "Lady you shot me / On top of all the tears you brought me / You broke my one rule / You treated me cruel".

It's somewhat of a rare treat to hear a songs whose lyrics begin with the title, but common enough that we should be able to put a great set of songs together.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that start with the title first in the lyrics?
