random ten lyrics game

Hey boys and girls!  It's time for another exciting round of the random ten lyrics game.  Here's how it works:  Inspired by the random ten iPod shuffle meme that's going around these days, I decided to turn mine into a game, post the lyrics to my songs, and make y'all guess the titles and artists.  If a song is considered a standard, or has been recorded by various artists, just the title will do (though we will all think you very smart if you know who wrote it).  Here is this week's selection:

1. The city streets are wet again with rain, but I'm walking just the same.
2. Can I take you to a restaurant that's got glass tables? You can watch yourself while you are eating.
3. I fumble for the clock, alarmed by the seduction, how I wish that it would stop.
4. Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see held so tightly in your hand?
5. He makes friends easy, he's not like me, I wait for judgement anxiously.
6. A week in Paris will ease the bite of it. All I care is to smile in spite of it.
7. You're a no good heartbreaker, you're a liar, you're a cheat.
8. We're drinking, my friend, to the end of a brief episode.
9. I woke up with a headache like my head against a board.
10. It's not my place to know what you feel. I'd like to know, but why should I?

Woo hoo! That #3 is that song by Squeeze. That's all I got. Is it cheating to google this stuff? I think maybe that's cheating.

2. Mirror in the Bathroom, THE ENGLISH BEAT! (I knew I loved you, Nina!)
3. Tempted, Squeeze
8. Sinatra?
9. Closer to Fine, Indigo Girls

You're no Good, Linda Ronstadt
You're a no good heartbreaker, you're a liar, you're a cheat.

Grrrr, all I know is the next lines are Whose wine? What wine? Where the hell did I die?

note from nina: Well, Max got them all right, but since there are some people who still wanna play, I am blocking out his comment. I'm sure Max will understand.

Well, Mr. Max who doesn't exist, if I find out you google-cheated, I'll send my big bad ass after you! I know how to find you, and I know how you found me. For the record, my version of "One For My Baby" is sung by Billie Holiday.

Well, Max stole all my fun, but for the record I had 2,3,5,6 and 8. I also claim extra credit for having thought of the English Beat lyric last week, after having read the last one of these, even though I haven't thought of them in years. Really. (doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo)
