"Myself I touch, but not too much. I hear it's degrading" - Young Girl Blues, Marianne Faithfull

yeah, right! :D
 
Look inside
Look inside your tiny mind
Now look a bit harder
'Cause we're so uninspired
So sick and tired of all the hatred you harbor
So you say
It's not okay to be gay
Well, I think you're just evil
You're just some racist who can't tie my laces
Your point of view is medieval
Fuck you (fuck you)
Fuck you very, very much
'Cause we hate what you do
And we hate your whole crew
So, please don't stay in touch
 
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
I went in seeking clarity.

Great song, but tonight:

She don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
She looks down her nose at money
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
She's my baby I'm her honey
I'm never gonna let her go
-John Prine
 
I walk forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I use a cobra snake for a necktie
I got a brand new house on the roadside
Made from rattlesnake hide
I got a brand new chimney made on top
Made out of a human skull
Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene
And tell me, who do you love?
Bo Diddley

An instrumental version of this song was one of the numbers I used when I danced. Loved it :D
 
I am an old woman named after my mother
My old man is another child that's grown old
If dreams were lightning, thunder was desire
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago.

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

Stick my hands through the cage of this endless routine
Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine - Trent Reznor
 
We're just a million
Little God's causin' rainstorms
Turning every good thing to rust

Arcade Fire - Wake up
 
Lets see Babs striesand deliver these lyrics -

Could a copper catch a crooked coffin maker
Could a copper comprehend
That a crooked coffin maker is just an undertaker who
Undertakes to be a friend

"So you try (try), try to stay in the middle
And then you cry (cry), well you cry just a little
Then you both realize
Just how foolish you've been
And you try to make amends
But you're better off as friends
'Cause that's how much (that's how much)
That's how much, that's how much"
 
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house, now all her pretty dreams been torn
She stares off alone into the night with the eyes of one who hates for just being born
 
Aretha Franklin A rose is still a rose

'Cause a rose is still a rose (still a rose)
Baby, girl, you're still a flower (you're still a flower)'
 
Nick Cave said it best...

I don't believe in an interventionist God
