[MrsTaborJet]

When you came to me with your bad dreams and your fears

It was easy to see that you'd been crying

Seems like everywhere you turn catastrophe it reigns

But who really profits from the dying

I could hold you in my arms

I could hold you forever

I could hold you in my arms

I could hold you in my arms forever

When you kissed my lips with my mouth so full of questions

It's my worried mind that you quiet

Place your hands on my face

Close my eyes and say

Love is a poor man's food

Don't prophesize

I could hold you in my arms

I could hold you forever

And I could hold you in my arms

I could hold you forever

So now we see how it is

This fist begets the spear

Weapons of war

Symptoms of madness

Don't let your eyes refuse to see

Don't let your ears refuse to hear

Or you ain't never going to shake this sense of sadness

I could hold you in my arms

I could hold on forever

And I could hold you in my arms

I could hold forever

[Boozer76]

Lessons Learned is a great tune too. Ray has an awesome sound, just unique from anything out there now that I've heard. I first heard a song on the iO Cable Music Choice channels, 800+ and loved the song and bought the album off iTunes.

You Can Bring Me Flowers (love the bluesy feel of this one) was the song that got me hooked, then heard Be Here Now and bought the album.

Good stuff!

It just never ends with the guy, great song after great song. Here's another:

Ray Lamontagne

Burn

Oh mama don't walk away

I'm a goddam sore loser

I ain't too proud to stay

But I'm still thinking 'bout you

And I'm so lonesome without you

And I can't get you out of my mind

Oh mama don't leave me alone

with my soul sat down so tight it's like a stone cold tomb

Ain't it clear when I'm near you

I'm just dying to hear you

Calling my name one more time

Oh so don't pay no mind

To my watering eyes

Must be something in the air

That I'm breathing

Yes'n I try to ignore

All this blood on the floor

It's just this heart on my sleeve that's a bleeding

Oh mama don't walk away

You leave me here bereaving from the words so hard and plain

Saying the love that we had

was just selfish and sad

To see you now with him

is just making me mad

Oh so kiss him again

just to prove to me that you can

an I will stand here

and burn in my skin

Yes I will stand here

and burn in my skin

Bump?

Motorhead- Orgasmatron

I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand

My image is of agony, my servants rape the land

Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain

Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name

Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law

My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit

I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet

I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain

And still you play the sycophant and revel in you pain

And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate

I am the politician, and I decide your fate

I march before a martyred world, an army for the fight

I speak of great heroic days, of victory and might

I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave

I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave

Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown

For I am Mars, the god of war, and I will cut you down.

[SoFlaJets]

great song download it if ya ain't got it and listen to it again-YouTube also has the original video with Bruce's ex-Julianne Phillips looking so frickin hot in those stonewashed jeans-that ass cost Bruce 21 million...worth it?

I've been lost inside, empty space in my heart

And some things never change, no

How it hurts me and how it's tearin' me apart, and it just goes on and

on

Can you read my mind, take a good look at my face

Could you take the time, just to stand here in my place

What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye

Could you smile when inside you just wanna cry, look inside

Can you read my mind? Oh oh

When I hear your name, feel so cold deep inside

Still it's hard to explain, oh

But you're not meant to be, they say time will heal the pain

But it just goes on forever

Can you read my mind, have you closed the door on love

Can you be so blind, did you think I'd just give up

Chorus:

What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye

Could you smile when inside you just wanna cry, wanna cry

What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye

Could you smile when it hurts so deep inside, and it never fades away

Fade away

(Solo)

Time can't erase the reasons why

I count my mistakes and the heartaches since you said goodbye

(chorus)

Never fades away, no it don't fade away

[Larz]

pink floyd, one of my turns

Day after day, love turns grey

Like the skin of a dying man

And night after night we pretend it's all right

But I have grown older and

You have grown colder and

Nothing is very much fun any more.

And I can feel one of my turns coming on.

I feel cold as a razor blade

Tight as a tourniquet

Dry as a funeral drum

[vanDoug]

pink floyd, one of my turns

Day after day, love turns grey

Like the skin of a dying man

And night after night we pretend it's all right

But I have grown older and

You have grown colder and

Nothing is very much fun any more.

And I can feel one of my turns coming on.

I feel cold as a razor blade

Tight as a tourniquet

Dry as a funeral drum

Great lyrics, but you can't leave it there.

It builds up and continues. (bolded my favorite line)

Run to the bedroom,

In the suitcase on the left

You'll find my favorite axe.

Don't look so frightened

This is just a passing phase,

One of my bad days.

Would you like to watch T.V.?

Or get between the sheets?

Or contemplate the silent freeway?

Would you like something to eat?

Would you like to learn to fly?

Would'ya?

Would you like to see me try?

AAAH, no!

Would you like to call the cops?

Do you think it's time I stopped?

Why are you running away?

[L.S. Dylan]

"Wasted Time"

It's your life

Don't you let em tell you when to bat your eyes

You're the only one who's gonna sacrifice

Makes no difference if you're right or wrong

Take that ride

But I want your little sister by your side

Maybe little later we can all collide

Do our livin' like a rollin' stone

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted

[Chorus:]

Innocent smile

Runnin' free

Baby's gonna give it like it used to be

Show your face

Livin' in the shadows like you got no name

Enough to make a little girly go insane

Be my guest to let it out tonight

It's ok

I know all about the little games you play

Shakin' your apple right in my face

Only when you know that I'm beggin' fort a bite

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted

Chorus

So won't you show your face (show your face)

Your little apple shake (show your face)

I know the love you gave (show your face)

I know the love you take (show your face)

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted time

Time on me is wasted

Bastards of Young - The Replacements (Paul Westerberg is a genius)

God, what a mess, on the ladder of success

Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung

Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled

It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

The daughters and the sons

Clean your baby womb, trash that baby boom

Elvis in the ground, there'll ain't no beer tonight

Income tax deduction, what a hell of a function

It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

The daughters and the sons

Unwillingness to claim us, ya got no word (war?) to name us

The ones who love us best are the ones we'll lay to rest

And visit their graves on holidays at best

The ones who love us least are the ones we'll die to please

If it's any consolation, I don't begin to understand them

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

We are the sons of no one, bastards of young

The daughters and the sons

Young...take it, it's yours...

[L.S. Dylan]

He's a perfect stranger

Like a cross of himself and a fox

He's a feeling arranger

And a changer of the ways he talks

He's the unforeseen danger

The keeper of the key to the locks

Know when you see him

Nothing can free him

Step aside, open wide

It's the loner

If you see him in the subway

He'll be down at the end of the car

Watching you move

Until he knows he knows who you are

When you get off at your station alone

He'll know that you are

Know when you see him

Nothing can free him

Step aside, open wide

It's the loner

There was a woman he knew

About a year or so ago

She had something that he needed

And he pleaded with her not to go

On the day that she left

He died, but it did not show

Know when you see him

Nothing can free him

Step aside, open wide

It's the loner

I'm Alive

Kenny Chesney/Dave Matthews

So damn easy to say that life

Frank Zappa - Jewish Princess

I want a nasty little jewish princess

With long phony nails and a hairdo that rinses

A horny little jewish princess

With a garlic aroma that could level tacoma

Lonely inside

Well, she can swallow my pride

I want a hairy little jewish princess

With a brand new nose, who knows where it goes

I want a steamy little jewish princess

With over-worked gums, who squeaks when she cums

I dont want no troll

I just want a yemenite hole

I want a darling little jewish princess

Who dont know sh!t about cooking and is arrogant looking

A vicious little jewish princess

To specifically happen with a pee-pee thats snappin

All up inside

I just want a princess to ride

Awright, back to the top...everybody twist

I want a funky little jewish princess

A grinder; a bumper, with a pre-moistened dumper

A brazen little jewish princess

With titanic t!ts, and sand-blasted zits

She can even be poor

So long as she does it with four on the floor

(vapor-lock)

I want a dainty little jewish princess

With a couple of sisters who can raise a few blisters

A fragile little jewish princess

With roumanian thighs, who weasels n lies

For two or three nights

Wont someone send me a princess who bites

Wont someone send me a princess who bites

[MrsTaborJet]

Don't let your mind get weary and confused

You will be still, don't cry

Don't let your heart get heavy child

Inside you there's a strength that lies

Don't let your soul get lonely child

It's only time, it will go by

Don't look for love in faces, places

It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness

Be here now, here now

Be here now, here now

Don't lose your faith in me

And I will try not to lose faith in you

Don't put your trust in walls

'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall

Be here now, here now

Be here now, here now

[124]

i'm sure that you're writing it off

and if you're fighting with the idea

that the meaning is lost

then you should stop by

maybe drop me a line

and if it's not too much to ask

then maybe save me some time

'cause i can't spend a day

without a thought about you

and the things i'd like to say

i just can't make come out

when your eyes meet mine

we're standing in the fading moonlight

making the most of the brightest stars in the sky

and of you at my side

(x2)

i've been sitting counting the days

from the moment that we met

until the second you stayed in my arms

so sure that we knew who we were

in the sense of what it meant to feel completely secure

'cause i can't spend a day

without a thought about you

and the things i'd like to say

i just can't make come out

when your eyes meet mine

we're standing in the fading moonlight

making the most of the brightest stars in the sky

and of you at my side

(x3)

[freestater]

Pink Floyd

Fearless

You say the hill's too steep to climb

Just climb it

You say you'd like to see me try

Climbing

You pick the place and I'll choose the time

And I'll climb

The hill in my own way

Just wait a while for the right day

And as I rise above the tree lines and the clouds

I look down

Hear the sound of the things you said today

Fearlessly, the idiot faced the crowd

Smiling

Merciless, the magistrate turns 'round

Frowning

And who's the fool who wears the crown?

And go down in your own way

And every day is the right day

And as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow

You look down

Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd

(Soccer (football) crowd singing)

[SoFlaJets]

Sitting In Limbo

(Jimmy Cliff)

Sitting here in limbo, but I know it won't be long

Sitting here in limbo, like a bird without a song

Well they're putting up resistance

But I know that my faith will lead me on

Sitting here in limbo, waiting for the dice to roll

Sitting here in limbo, got some time to search my soul

Well they're putting up resistance

But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where life will lead me

But I know where I've been

I can't say what life will show me

But I know what I've seen

Tried my hand at love and friendship

But all that is passed and gone

This little boy is moving on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow

Sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go

Well they're putting up resistance

But I know that my faith will lead me on

I don't know where life will lead me

But I know where I've been

I can't say what life will show me

But I know what I've seen

Tried my hand at love and friendship

But all that is passed and gone

This little boy is moving on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow

Sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go

Well they're putting up resistance

But I know that my faith will lead me on

Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo

Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo

Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo

Sitting in limbo limbo limbo ....

[war ensemble]

I'll try and make a less radical entrance into this thread, from before at least...

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Iron Maiden

Hear the rime of the Ancient Mariner

See his eyes as he stops one of three

Mesmerises one of the wedding guests

Stay here and listen to the nightmares of the Sea.

And the music plays on, and the bride passes by

Caught by his spell and the Mariner tells his tale.

Driven south to the land of the snow and ice

To a place where nobody's been

Through the snow fog flies the albatross

Hailed in God's name, hoping good luck it brings.

And the ship sails on, back to the North

Through the fog and the ice the albatross follows on

The mariner kills the bird of good omen

His shipmates cry against what he's done

But when the fog clears, they justify him

And make themselves part of the crime.

Sailing on and on and North across the sea

Sailing on and on and North 'till all is calm.

The albatross begins with its vengeance

A terrible thirst a curse has begun

His shipmates blame bad luck on the Mariner

About his neck, the dead bird is hung.

And the curse goes on and on at sea

And the curse goes on and on for them and me.

"Day after day, day after day, we stuck nor breath nor motion

As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean

Water, water, everywhere and all the boards did shrink

Water, water, everywhere nor any drop to drink."

(Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1798-1834))

There, calls the mariner, there comes a ship over the line

But how can she sail with no wind in her sails and no tide.

See...onward she comes

Onward she nears, out of the sun

See...she has no crew

She has no life, wait but there's two.

Death and she Life in Death, they throw their dice for the crew

She wins the Mariner and he belongs to her now.

Then...crew one by one

They drop down dead, two hundred men

She...She, Life in Death.

She lets him live, her chosen one.

Narrative

"One after one by the star dogged moon, too quick for groan or sigh

Each turned his face with a ghastly pang, and cursed me with his eye

Four times fifty living men (and I heard nor sigh nor groan),

With heavy thump, a lifeless lump. they dropped down one by one."

(Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1798-1834))

The curse it lives on in their eyes

The Mariner he wished he'd die

Along with the sea creatures

But they lived on, so did he.

And by the light of the moon

He prays for their beauty not doom

With heart he blesses them

God's creatures all of them too.

Then the spell starts to break

The albatross falls from his neck

Sinks down like lead into the Sea

Then down in falls comes the rain.

Hear the groans of the long dead seamen

See them stir and they start to rise

Bodies lifted by good spirits

None of them speak and they're lifeless in their eyes.

And revenge is still sought, penance starts again

Cast into a trance and the nightmare carries on.

Now the curse is finally lifted

And the Mariner sights his home

Spirits go from the long dead bodies

Form their own light and the Mariner's left alone.

And then a boat came sailing towards him

It was a joy he could not believe

The Pilot's boat, his son and the hermit.

Penance of life will fall onto Him.

And the ship it sinks like lead into the sea

And the hermit shrieves the mariner of his sins.

The Mariner's bound to tell of his story

To tell his tale wherever he goes

To teach God's word by his own example

That we must love all things that God made. And the wedding guest's a sad and wiser man And the tale goes on and on and on.

The Rolling Stones Time Waits for no one Lyrics:

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by

Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face

Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste

Time waits for no one, no favours has he

Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me

Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting

Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating

And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me

Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Drink in your summer, gather your corn

The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

No no no, not for me....

[PatriotReign37]

Mind your own business

Words and music by Hank Williams, Sr.

If the wife and I are fussin', brother that's our right

'Cause me and that sweet woman's got a license to fight

Why don't you mind your own business

Mind your own business)

'Cause if you mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine.

Oh, the woman on our party line's the nosiest thing

She picks up her receiver when she knows it's my ring

Why don't you mind your own business

Mind your own business

Well, if you mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine.

I got a little gal that wears her hair up high,

the boys all whistle when she walks by.

why don't you mind your own buisness

Mind your own business

Well, if you mind your own business, you sure won't be minding mine.

If I want to honky tonk around 'til two or three

Now, brother that's my headache, don't you worry 'bout me.

Just mind your own business

Mind your own business

If you mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine.

Mindin' other people's business seems to be high-toned

I got all that I can do just to mind my own

Why don't you mind your own business

Mind your own business

If you mind your own business, you'll stay busy all the time.

TITLE: All I Need Is a Miracle

I said, "Go if you wanna go

Stay if you wanna stay

"I didn't care if you hung around me

I didn't care if you went away

And I know you were never right

I'll admit I was never wrong

I could never make up my mind

I made it up as I went along

And though I treated you like a child

I'm gonna miss you for the rest of my life

All I need is a miracle, all I need is you

I never had any time

And I never had any call

But I went out of my way just to hurt you

The one I shouldn't hurt at al

I thought I was being cool

Yeah, I thought I was being strong

But it's always the same old story

You never know what you've got 'til it's gone

And if I ever catch up with you

I'm gonna love you for the rest of your life

All I need is a miracle, all I need is you

All I need is a miracleAll I need is a miracle, all I need is you

All I need is a miracleAll I need is a miracle, all I need is you

Peter Gabriel Steam lyrics

Stand Back!

'said Stand Back!

What are those dogs doing sniffing at my feet?

They're on to something, picking up

Picking up this heat, this heat

Give me steam

And how you feel can make it real

Real as anything you've seen

Get a life with the dreamer's dream

You know your culture from your trash

You know your plastic from your cash

When I lose sight of the track

You know the way back

But I know you

You know your stripper from your paint

You know your sinner from your saint

Whenever heaven's doors are shut

You kick them open, but

I know you

Give me steam

And how you feel can make it real

Real as any place you've been

Get a life with the dreamer's dream

Stand back!

'said Stand back!

Can't you see I've lost control? I'm getting indiscreet

You're moving in so close 'til I'm picking up

Picking up this heat, this heat

You know your green from your red

You know the quick from the dead

So much better than the rest

You think you've been blessed

But I know you

You know your ladder from your snake

You know the throttle from the brake

You know your straight line from a curve

You've got a lot of nerve

But I know you

Everybody nosedive

Hold your breath, count to five

Backslap, boobytrap

Cover it up in bubblewrap

Room shake, earthquake

Find a way to stay awake

It's gonna blow, it's gonna break

This is more than I can take

Oh yeah, I need steam

Feel the steam around me

Ah you're turning up the heat

When I start to dream aloud

'Til you're movin' hands and feet

Won't you step into this cloud of steam

This steam

Help me yeah

Ready to steam out the log jam

Stir crazy from the freezer to the boil

Water's bubbling, it's b..b..b..bubbling

bubbling bubbling bubbling bubbling

Life is coming to the boil

Gimme steam, lady

Gimme the steam around me now

On a high, Coming alive

'said gimme some steam!

Used to hang out in a bar where these 2 songs were like the daily double, and "Used to.." was a big singalong favorite.

My Wife

The Who

My life's in jeopardy

Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be

I ain't been home since Friday night

And now my wife is coming after me

Give me police protection

Gonna buy a gun so

I can look after number one

Give me a bodyguard

A back belt Judo expert with a machine gun

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane

When she catches up with me

Won't be no time to explain

She thinks I've been with another woman

And that's enough to send her half insane

Gonna buy a fast car

Put on my lead boots

And take a long, long drive

I may end up spending all my money

But I'll still be alive

All I did was have a bit too much to drink

And I picked the wrong precinct

Got picked up by the law

And now I ain't got time to think

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane

When she catches up with me

Won't be no time to explain

She thinks I've been with another woman

And that's enough to send her half insane

Gonna buy a fast car

Put on my lead boots

And take a long, long drive

I may end up spending all my money

But I'll still be alive

And I'm oh so tired of running

Gonna lay down on the floor

I gotta rest some time so

I can get to run some more

She's comin'!

She's comin'!

Used to Lover Her

GNR

I used to love her

But I had to kill her

I used to love her, mm, yeah

But I had to kill her

I had to put her six feet under

And I can still hear her complain

I used to love her, oo, yeah

But I had to kill her

I used to love her, oo, yeah

But I had to kill her

I knew I'd miss her

So I had to keep her

She's buried right in my backyard

Oh yeah, oo yeah, whoa, oh yeah

I used to love her

But I had to kill her

I used to love her, mm, yeah

But I had to kill her

She bitched so much, she drove me nuts

And now I'm happier this way, yeah

Whoa, oh yeah

I used to love her

But I had to kill her

I used to love her, mm, yeah

But I had to kill her

I had to put her, oo, six feet under

And I can still hear her complain

Your Dictionary

H-A-T-E

Is that how you spell love in your dictionary

K-I-C-K

Pronounced as kind

F-U-C-K

Is that how you spell friend in your dictionary

Black on black

A guidebook for the blind

Well now that I can see my eyes won't weep

Now that I can hear your song sounds cheap

Now that I can talk all your corn I'll reap

I'm not so sure that Joey wed a Virgin Mary

There are no words for me inside your dictionary

S-L-A-P

Is that how you spell kiss in your dictionary

C-O-L-D

Pronounced as care

S-H-I-T

Is that how you spelt me in your dictionary

Four-eyed fool

You led 'round everywhere

Now that I can see it's the queens new clothes

Now that I can hear all your poison prose

Now that I can talk with my tongue unfroze

I'm not so sure of Santa or the buck-tooth fairy

There are no words for me inside your dictionary

Now your laughter has a hollow ring

But the hollow ring has no finger in

So let's close the book and let the day begin

And our marriage be undone

Third Eye Blind

Semi-Charmed Life

I'm packed and I'm holding

I'm smiling, she living, she golden

She lives for me

Says she lives for me

Ovation

her own motivation

She comes round and she goes down on me

And I make her smile

It's like a drug for you

Do ever what you want to do

Coming over you

Keep on smiling,

What we go through

One stop to the rhythm that divides you

And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse

Chop another line like a coda with a curse

I come on like a freak show takes the stage

We give them the games we play,

She said

I want something else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kind of life (Baby, baby)

I want something else

I'm not listening when you say

Good-bye

The sky it was gold, it was rose

I was taking tips of it to my nose

And I wish I could get back there

Some place back there

Smiling in the pictures you would take

Doing crystal meth

Will lift you up until you break

It won't stop

I won't come down,

I keep stock

With a tick-tock rhythm

A bump for the drop

And then I bumped up

I took the hit that I was given

Then I bumped again

And then I bumped again

I said

How do I get back there to

The place where I fell asleep inside you?

How do I get myself back to

The place where you said

I want something else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kind of life (Baby, baby)

I want something else

I'm not listening when you say

Good-bye

I believe in the sand beneath my toes

The beach gives a feeling

An earthy feeling

I believe in the faith that grows

And the four right chords can make me cry

When I'm with you I feel like I could die

And that would be all right

All right

And when the plane came in

She said she was crashing

The velvet it rips

In the city

We tripped

On the urge to feel alive

But now I'm struggling to survive

Those days you were wearing that velvet dress

You're the priestess, I must confess

Those little red panties

They pass the test

Slides up around the belly

Face down on the mattress

One

And you hold me

And we're broken

Still it's all that I want to do, just a little now

Feel myself heavy on the ground

I was scared, I'm not coming down, no no

And I won't run for my life

She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile

But nothing is all right

All right

I want something else

To get me through this

Life. Baby

I want something else

I'm not listening when you say

Good-bye (4x)

The sky it was gold, it was rose

I was takin' tips of it to my nose

And I wish I could get there

someplace, back there

In the place we use to start our lives

I want something else

[L.S. Dylan]

Chuck Berry wrote some insane lyrics. This song cracks me up,

Chuck Berry / Dear Dad

Dear Dad, don't get mad,

What I'm asking for

Is by the next semester

Can I get another car ?

This one here is sick'ning

On a wide dual road.

I might as well be walking

As to drive this old Ford.

Almost everytime I try

To go and pass a truck,

If I ain't goin' down hill,

Dad, I'm, out of luck.

And even if I get by,

It's still a rugged risk,

The way this old Ford

Keep a hitting and a miss.

Last week when I was driving

On my way to school,

I almost got a ticket

'Bout a freeway traffic rule.

It's now a violation

Driving under forty-five,

And if I push to fifty,

This here Ford will nosedive.

Dad, I'm in great danger

Out here trying to drive.

The way this Ford wiggles

When I'm approaching forty-five/

I have to nurse it along

Like a little stubborn pup,

And cars whizzing by me,

Dad, look like I'm backing up.

She just don't have the appetite

For gas somehow,

And Dad, I got four carburetors

Hooked up on it now.

I tried to hook another

To see if I'd do a little good,

But ain't no place to put it

'Less I perforate the hood.

Well Dad, send the money,

See what I can see,

Try to find a Cadillac,

A Sixty-two or three.

Just something that won't worry us

To keep it on the road.

Sincerely, your beloved son,

Henry Junior Ford

[L.S. Dylan]

I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost,

For a life of sin, I have paid the cost.

When I pass by, all the people say

"Just another guy on the lost highway."

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine

And a woman's lies make a life like mine.

Oh, the day we met, I went astray,

I started rollin' down that lost highway.

I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two,

Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you,

And now I'm lost, too late to pray,

Lord, I've paid the cost on the lost highway.

Now, boys, don't start your ramblin' round,

On this road of sin or you're sorrow bound.

Take my advice or you'll curse the day

You started rollin' down that lost highway

Disorder in the house

The tub runneth over

Plaster's falling down in pieces by the couch of pain

Disorder in the house

Time to duck and cover

Helicopters hover over rough terrain

Disorder in the house

Reptile wisdom

Zombies on the lawn staggering around

Disorder in the house

There's a flaw in the system

And the fly in the ointment's gonna bring the whole thing down

The floodgates are open

We've let the demons loose

The big guns have spoken

And we've fallen for the ruse

Disorder in the house

It's a fate worse than fame

Even the Lhasa Apso seems to be ashamed

Disorder in the house

The doors are coming off the hinges

The earth will open and swallow up the real estate

I just got my paycheck

I'm gonna paint the whole town grey

Whether it's a night in Paris or a Fresno matinee

It's the home of the brave and the land of the free

Where the less you know the better off you'll be

Disorder in the house

All bets are off

I'm sprawled across the davenport of despair

Disorder in the house

I'll live with the losses

And watch the sundown through the portiere

[Verde]

Does anybody actually read these lyrics? I mean, if you don't know or like the song they're useless.

I'm My Own Grandpa

Lyrics: Dwight Latham, Moe Jaffe

Music: Dwight Latham, Moe Jaffe

Oh, many, many years ago

When I was twenty-three

I was married to a widow

Who was pretty as can be

This widow had a grown-up daughter

Who had hair of red

My father fell in love with her

And soon the two were wed

This made my dad my son-in-law

And changed my very life

For my daughter was my mother

'Cause she was my father's wife

To complicate the matter

Though it really brought me joy

I soon became the father

Of a bouncing baby boy

This little baby then became

A brother-in-law to Dad

And so became my uncle

Though it made me very sad

For if he was my uncle

Then that also made him brother

Of the widow's grown-up daughter

WHo of course is my step-mother

Chorus

I'm my own grandpa

I'm my own grandpa

It sounds funny I know

But it really is so

Oh, I'm my own grandpa

My father's wife then had a son

Who kept them on the run

And he became my grandchild

For he was my daughter's son

My wife is now my mother's mother

And it makes me blue

Because although she is my wife

She's my grandmother too

Now if my wife is my grandmother

Then I'm her grandchild

And every time I think of it

It nearly drives me wild

For now I have become

The strangest case you ever saw

As husband of my grandma

I am my own grandpa

[chorus]

[Pragmatic Bus]

Does anybody actually read these lyrics? I mean, if you don't know or like the song they're useless.

Lolz, I think its more about self therapy than sharing, and by self therapy I mean attention whoring

Cold Beverage by G. Love & Special Sauce

Yo- could I get a cold beverage

I need some leverage

It's sunny outside

Some lemonade would be nice

Or a sprite through the drive through

At B.K. Yo I'll buy girl a drink

But girls got to pay

On the front porch i got

Some iced tea

If you like a taste of tea

Then come along with me

Summertime is steamin',

Don't give me no (unintelligible)

Grab some ice and a dash of vermouth

It's martini time

Yeah yeah feeling golden

Bring your own beverage

Just make sure it's cold

I like cold beverage, yeah (3x)

Uh, huh

Give me frosty mug

Filled with A&W

If you got ice cream

Make it a double scoop

Milkshake at the fountain

Really good sounding

Chocolate egg cream

Yo, I'm champ cherry pounding

Caught a chill vibe

Orange juice in my ride

Wawa's to the right

They got beverage inside

Dig me a hot coffee

Fill it up with ice

Watermelons like drink

Please fix me a large slice

Summertime is cool the heat is getting old

Yeah I'll have a beverage

Just make sure it's cold

Cold, cold, cold, cold...

I like cold beverage, yeah (3x)

'Cuz I'm feelin' kinda thirsty

Stick it in the fridge, stick it in the fridge,

stick it in the fridge, stick it in the fridge (2x)

Go girl work the cold one (4x)

Yo, when I'm fishing

Let's keep one thing clear

The baits over there

The brews right here

Two six packs and a big bag of ice

Didn't even catch a bite

But the brew tasted nice

Back to the bar

Strawberry daiquiris and a colada

I need a whole lotta them

Fruit drinks to catch me a buzz

I must tell you I'm the

Cool Aid kid

Before you serve my drink

Please stick it in the fridge

I like cold beverage, yeah
