Default Mystery Songs

Dear Board:

I put pen to paper and wrote down all of my favorite songs, but there's two I can't recall. Will you please help?

The first song I believe was around 1980/81 (about the time Steve Winwood's "When you see a chance" was popular) and all I can remember about the song is that it had a dramatic intro with what sounded like a ominous (female?) newscaster voice talking about the tides/flood rising (maybe a dam bursting was mentioned?), etc. but what the song was about I can't recall.

The second song (a dance/electronic song) was around 1984/85 and all can remember were lyrics that roughly said: "Why don't I come over with the board and drink coca-cola and make it?"

Anyway, I realize that's vague, but hopefully it will jog your memory and I can close this chapter.

Thanks so much!

Many folks guess that, but it was on a rock station back in the day and had a Moody Blues/prog rock sound...

Thanks for responding!
