| | Re: Song(s) for Teaching Past & Past Continuous Tense (with lyrics) 'Don't you want me, baby?' by The Human League is good for that. You'll find the lyrics here: Testo canzone Don'T You Want Me di Human League Lyrics
As for the song itself, you'll need to 'find' it somehow via file-sharing etc.
Good luck

Thanks. I find the song very useful in teaching past simple tense. How about past continuous tense? Any advice?
Many thanks in advance.

'You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar when I met you'
perfect for showing how the two tenses are used together :-)
