  Take That Gobbledygook    
Multiple Choice
 10 Qns
I'm no fan of Take That, and it seemed to me that some of their lyrics made no sense. So I looked more closely, and I was right. Some of their lyrics are meaningless gobbledygook. See if you can work out which song some of these daft lyrics come from.
