Sorry, had to throw in one more from Ray Davies: "I think I'm sophisticated cos I'm living my life like a good homosapien But all around me everybody's multiplying till they're walking round like flies man So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages in the zoo man cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees, I am an ape man I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized cos I'm a strict vegetarian But with the over-population and inflation and starvation And the crazy politicians I dont feel safe in this world no more I dont want to die in a nuclear war I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an ape man In man's evolution he has created the cities and the motor traffic rumble But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle Cos the only time that I feel at ease Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree Oh what a life of luxury to be like an ape man I look out my window, but I can't see the sky The air pollution is fogging up my eyes I want to get out of this city alive And make like an ape man I'll be your Tarzan, you'll be my Jane I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane And we'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day Just like an ape man"
30 years ago my girlfriend was a bit crappy to me so I left her leaving a copy of this Bob Dylan song for her. 27 years later she finds me and reminds me of the song and tells me how bad she felt for not helping our relationship. 2 years ago (come April 23) we got married. Thanks Bob! Don't Think Twice, It's All Right - Bob Dylan It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don't matter, anyhow An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe If you don't know by now When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on Don't think twice, it's all right It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe That light I never knowed An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe I'm on the dark side of the road Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay We never did too much talkin' anyway So don't think twice, it's all right It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal Like you never did before It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal I can't hear you any more I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' all the way down the road I once loved a woman, a child I'm told I give her my heart but she wanted my soul But don't think twice, it's all right I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe Where I'm bound, I can't tell But goodbye's too good a word, gal So I'll just say fare thee well I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's all right
Raising the dead Aging black leather and hospital bills, Tattoo removal and dozens of pills. Your liver pays dearly now for youthful magic moments, But rock on completely with some brand new components Well, I Was Drunk The Day My Mom Got Out Of Prison And I Went To Pick Her Up In The Rain But Before I Could Get To The Station In My Pickup Truck She Got Run Ned Over By A Damned Old Train I just robbed a grocery store I'm going to dizz knee land I just flipped off President George I'm going to dizz knee land I just tossed a fifth of gin Now I'm going to dizz knee land I just got cuffed again I'm going to dizz knee land yeah Shot my gun into the night I'm going to dizz knee land I just saw a good man die I'm going to dizz knee land She changed the lock on my back door, Now my key won't fit no more. Move it on over. Rock it on over. Move over nice dog, a mean, old dog is movin' in.
(One) day when I was chillin' in Kentucky Fried Chicken Just mindin' my business, eatin' food and finger lickin' This dude walked in lookin' strange and kind of funny Went up to the front with a menu and his money He didn't walk straight, kind of side to side He asked this old lady, "Yo, yo, um...is this Kentucky Fried?" The lady said "Yeah", smiled and he smiled back He gave a quarter and his order, small fries, Big Mac! You be illin'
Totally agree. You gotta be awesome if you toss out lines like "Rock and roll means well, but it can't helping telling young boys lies."
Dumb All Over Whoever we are Wherever we're from We shoulda' noticed by now Our behavior is dumb And if our chances Expect to improve Its gonna take a lot more Than tryin' to remove The other race Or the other whatever From the face Of the planet altogether They call it the earth Which is a dumb kinda' name But they named it right cause we behave the same... We are dumb all over Dumb all over, Yes we are Dumb all over, Near 'n far Dumb all over, Black 'n white People, we is not wrapped tight Nurds on the left Nurds on the right Religious fanatics On the air every night Sayin' the bible Tells the story Makes the details Sound real gory 'bout what to do If the geeks over there Don't believe in the book We got over here You can't run a race Without no feet 'n pretty soon There wont be no street For dummies to jog on Or doggies to dog on Religious fanatics Can make it be all gone (I mean it wont blow up 'n disappear It'll just look ugly For a thousand years...) You can't run a country By a book of religion Not by a heap Or a lump or a smidgen Of foolish rules Of ancient date Designed to make You all feel great While you fold, spindle And mutilate Those unbelievers From a neighboring state To arms! to arms! Hooray! that's great Two legs ain't bad Unless theres a crate They ship the parts To mama in For souvenirs: two ears (get down!) Not his, not hers, (but what the hey? ) The good book says: (it gotta be that way!) But their book says: Revenge the crusades... With whips 'n chains n hand grenades... Two arms? two arms? Have another and another Our God says: There ain't no other! Our God says Its all okay! Our God says This is the way! It says in the book: Burn 'n destroy... 'n repent, 'n redeem 'n revenge, 'n deploy 'n rumble thee forth To the land of the unbelieving scum on the other side cause they don't go for whats in the book n that makes em bad So verily we must choppeth them up And stompeth them down Or rent a nice French bomb To poof them out of existence While leaving their real estate just where we need it To use again For temples in which to praise our god (cause he can really take care of business!) And when his humble TV servant With humble white hair And humble glasses And a nice brown suit And maybe a blond wife who takes phone calls Tells us our God says Its okay to do this stuff Then we gotta do it, cause if we don't do it, We ain't gwine up to hebbin! (depending on which book you're using at the Time...cant use theirs... it don't work ...its all lies...gotta use mine...) Ain't that right? Thats what they say Every night... Every day... Hey, we can't really be dumb If were just following god's orders Hey, lets get serious... God knows what he's doin' He wrote this book here An' the book says: He made us all to be just like him, So... If we're dumb... Then God is dumb... (an' maybe even a little ugly on the side) FZ
She Lives (In a Time of Her Own) She lives, no fear doubtless in everything she knows. Through time unchecked, the sureness of her flows. She leaves herself inside you when she goes. She lives in a time of her own. You have always heard her speaking, she's always been in your ear. Her voice sounds a tone within you, listen to the words you hear. Her time has no past or future, she lives everything she sees. Her time doesn't spin outside here, it's in every breath she breaths. She lives in a time of her own. Her love whips hard like wind and stands in eager pain. She wins your thoughts and drives your inner planes. She clears and shares a love that never strains. She lives in a time of her own. You have always heard her speaking, she's always been in your ear. Her voice sounds a tone within you, listen to the words you hear. Her time has no past or future, she lives everything she sees. Her time doesn't spin outside here, it's in every breath she breaths. She lives in a time of her own. Her eyes like light reflect the aura of her hair. She sends, attends, behind an alpha stare. She seeks the stars and spirals up their stairs. she lives in a time of her own. she lives in a time of her own. she lives in a time of her own. she lives in a time of her own.
