    Who's that gigolo on the street
    With his hands in his pockets and his crocadile feet
    Hanging off the curb, looking all disturbed
    At the boys from home. They all came running
    They were making noise, manhandling toys
    That's the girls on the block with the nasty curls
    Wearing padded bras sucking beers through straws
    Dropping down their drawers, where did you get yours?

    Gigolo, Huh, sukka?
    Gigolo. Gigolo, Huh, sukka?

    Chorus 1:

    Who's looking good today?
    Who's looking good in every way?
    No style rookie
    You better watch don't mess with me

    Chorus 2:

    No moneyman can win my love
    It's sweetness that I'm thinking of.
    We always hang in a Buffalo Stance
    We do the dive every time we dance
    I'll give you love baby not romance
    I'll make a move nothing left to chance
    So don't you get fresh with me

    Get funky. Yeah Timmy.
    Tell it like it is. Check out this DJ.

    So you say you wanted money but you know it's never funny
    When your shoes worn through and there's a rumble in your tummy
    But you had to have style get a gold tooth smile
    Put a girl on the corner so you can make a pile
    Committed a crime and went inside
    It was coming your way but you had to survive
    When you lost your babe, you lost the race
    Now you're looking at me to take her place.

    Chorus 1

    Smokin.' Not cokin.' Get funky sax.
    Looking good, hanging with the wild bunch.
    Looking good in a Buffalo Stance.
    Looking good when it comes to the crunch
    Looking good's a state of mind
    State of mind don't look behind you
    State of mind or you'll be dead
    State of mind may I remind you
    Bomb the Bass...rock this place!
    What is he like? What's he like anway?
    Yo' man what do you expect the guy's a gigolo man
    You know I mean?

    Chorus 2 (twice)

    Wind on my face, sound in my ears
    Water from my eyes, and you on my mind
    As I sink, diving down deep...deeper into your soul.

    Chorus 2 ...

    Do you think this issue is even on the radar screens of most politicians?

    the issue is enforcement.
    the only legistation, if any, left is penalize agencies for non-enforcement

    Choices. I want freedom in my life to do whatever I want as long as I do not encroach on others' freedom.

    A close second would have to be discrimination in law. The discrimination doesn't have to be based on race, sex. Anything. Its ludicrious that its legal to discriminate against young people, but illegal to discriminate against old people.

    My ideal democratic republic model would have me vote for the man, not the policies. If there was a candidate whose intelligence, wisdom, integrity and skill I could really trust, it wouldn't matter that I disagreed with a particular policy stance because he'd be entrusted with making these decisions on my behalf. Unfortunately, such men never run for public office. And really, I'm not surprised; people of integrity and wisdom know better than to be politicians.

    So failing that, I wouldn't say any particular issue has a majority sway over me. There isn't any issue that a politician must be in compliance on to get my vote. A plurality sway is international relations, and it's doubly true in this election because of the delicate situation we're in at the moment. Following would be civil rights and abortion. I could really care less about the economy and taxation; both phenomena I'm convinced government has relatively little to do with.

    international relations

    specifically taiwan. if you support taiwan you got my vote. you could be a total idiot in terms of environmental policy (my second biggest criteria) like bush is, and you'll still have my vote.

    i believe i speak for a good half of the hundreds of thousands of taiwanese-americans out there too.

    Education
    Kids are getting screwed on their future because no one wants to teach them and teachers are getting screwed because no one wants to pay them what they deserve.
    It's ironic that kids who want to learn today are getting screwed by the least intelligent president EVER!!
    Not only will we have the fattest kids on the planet we will one day have the dumbest kids on the planet.
    Fat kids with no future is about as sad as a Trader_Jorge post:(
