Another weekend is upon us, and puzzle fans know what that means!

LOONEY LYRICS
Usually when we play this game, we cite misheard song lyrics and ask what the real verse was. But there are some tunes that intentionally have weird lyrics. Do you know what song the following real verse came from?
"I played the janitor. You played the mommy-tor."
We'll reveal all next weekend. But for now, let's look inside THE ANSWERS BOX and discover the results of our Monkee-ing Around themed Puzzle Corner from June 11, 2011.
COMMON BONDS
01. {Daydream Believer, Ziggy Stardust} = Davy Jones
While that is his given/legal name, the other performs under the name David Bowie to avoid confusion with Jones, who sang Daydream Believer.
02. {Mickey Braddock, The Monkees} = Micky Dolenz
Braddock was the name child star Dolenz used for the show Circus Boy.
03. {Michael Blessing, Different Drum} = Michael Nesmith
Blessing was a stage name for Nesmith, who wrote the song that eventually became a hit for Linda Ronstadt and The Stone Poneys.
TRIVIA TIME
While some believe that the second season closing theme to The Monkees' television series is "In This Generation", the song's official title is For Pete's Sake, because it was co-written by Peter Tork and Joseph Richards.
