Name That Song

Ooh, the nights I spent just waiting on the sun
Just like your burned out cigarette
You threw away my love
Why did you do that baby
I wonder why, why you do these things to me
Oh I'm worried
Lord, I'll find out anyway
Sure going to find myself a girl someday
'Till then I'm worried
Yeah, I just can't seem to find my way
 
The opening line probably gives this one away....

Generals gathered in their masses,
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction,
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning,
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind,
Poisoning their brainwashed minds
Oh Lord yeah

ETA I used to kill that shit on Guitar Hero.
 
I'm a God at Guitar Hero.

...it'll be funnier later when it loads...
 
Now that the smokes gone
and the air is all clear:
those who were right there
had a new kind of fear.
You'd fight and you were right -
but, they were just too strong.
They'd stick it in your face
and let you smell what they consider wrong.
 
Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell
And I lost the key
 
At 4:30 in the morning I'm milkin' cows
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows... fool
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
I'm a man of the land, I'm into discipline
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
But if I finish all of my chores and you finish thine
Then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699

Amish Paradise
 
Ooh, well I got a girl with a record machine,
When it comes to rockin' she's the queen,
We love to dance on a Saturday night,
All alone where I can hold her tight,
But she lives on the twentieth floor uptown,
The elevator's broken down...
 
I assume you mean Coolio's version but did you know.... that it's based on a Stevie Wonder song "Pastime Paradise"?

I was gonna use Coolio as my hint if it came down to it, but no I meant I wanted to use Weird Al. But I was afraid he might be too obscure, like people know him but not necessarily the songs. I’ll give that Stevie song a listen because I didn’t know that one but I’m a Stevie fan

It's on Songs in the Key of Life album, which is very good BTW. Stevie had about 4 or 5 consecutive albums from early/mid 70's that are all great.
 
Let's just say that a couple of words in the lyrics you posted are a big clue.
I'd considered trying some songs with the title in the lyrics!

But, that one I just offered is one that you know or you don't know. I gotta remember to avoid ANYTHING that is Stones-related to keep you stumped!
