Something's Coming

[Dillinger]

Could be
Who knows?
There's something due any day
I will know right away
Soon as it shows
It may come cannonballin' down through the sky
Gleam in its eye
Bright as a rose!
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Under a tree
I got a feeling there's a miracle due
Gonna come true
Coming to me
Could it be?
Yes it could
Something's coming
Something good
If I can wait
Something's coming I don't know what it is
But it is
Gonna be great!
With a click
With a shock
Phone'll jingle
Door'll knock
Open the latch!
Something's coming, don't know when
But it's soon
Catch the moon
One handed catch
Around the corner
Or whistling down the river
Come on - deliver
To me
Will it be? Yes it will
Maybe just by holding still
It'll be there!
Come on, something, come on in
Don't be shy
Meet a guy
Pull up a chair
The air is hummin'
And something great is coming
Who knows
It's only just
Out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Maybe tonight
Maybe tonight...

 

[Hamletmaschine]

Hey, Hey! It's the Monkees!
People say we Monkee around!
But we're too busy singin'
To put anybody down.

 

[kotori]

Dillinger: Question?

Jet or Shark?

 

[SimplySouthern]

Somethings coming?

Wish it was me.

 

[Dillinger]

When you're a Monkee
You're a Monkee all the way
From your first gag fall
To your last rock star ball...

 

[Dillinger]

When you're a Lit,
You're a Jet all the way
From your first cyber post
To your last erotic play
When you're a Lit
Let 'em do do you when they can.
You got orgies all around,
You're a sex thread fan!

 

[Dillinger]

Jet or Shark is a great question actually - maybe people can answer it here... and why?

Its not a clear cut thing... I guess as kid I probably associated with the Jets cause I wanted to fuck Natalie would every which way and the Jet looked like he was going to get in her pants.

And also because the "Cool" song was just TOO cool...

 

[kotori]

little boy, you're a man,
little man, you're a king

 

[Dillinger]

You're a Jet all the way
From your first cigarette
To your last dyin' day.
When you're a Jet,
Let 'em do what they can.
You got brothers around,
You're a family man!

You're never alone,
You're never disconnected!
You're home with your own:
When company's expected,
You're well protected!

Then you are set
With a capital J,
Which you'll never forget
Till they cart you away.
When you're a Jet,
You stay a Jet!

When you're a Jet,
You're the top cat in town,
You're the gold-metal kid
With the heavyweight crown!

When you're a Jet,
You're the swingin'est thing:
Little boy, you're a man;
Little man, you're a king!

The Jets are in gear,
Our cylinders are clickin'!
The Sharks'll steer clear
'Cause ev'ry Puerto Rican 's a lousy chicken!

Here come the Jets
Like a bat out of hell.
Someone gets in our way,
Someone don't feel so well.

Here come the Jets:
Little world, step aside!
Better go underground,
Better run, better hide.

We're drawin' the line,
So keep your noses hidden!
We're hangin' a sign,
Says "Visitors forbidden"
And we ain't kiddin'!

Here come the Jets,
Yeah! An' we're gonna beat
Ev'ry last buggin' gang
On the whole buggin' street!
On the whole ever-mother-lovin' street!

I'm gonna say Shark. I gew up in the New York metro area, I have a certain affection for Carribean Latino culture. And I'm Irish--when I went to Puerto Rico, I was reminded of Ireland (the weird social / political / historical relationship with the "mother country").

Mira, mira, marecón.

Hey, Hey! It's the Monkees!

TONIGHT
RIFF
The Jets are gonna have their day
Tonight.

BERNARDO

The Puerto Ricans grumble: "Fair fight."
But if they start a rumble,
We'll rumble 'em right.

BERNARDO
We're gonna hand 'em a surprise
Tonight.

RIFF AND JETS
We're gonna cut 'em down to size
Tonight.

BERNARDO AND SHARKS
We said, "O.K., no rumpus,
No tricks."
But just in case they jump us,
We're ready to mix
Tonight.

ALL
We're gonna rock it tonight,
We're gonna jazz it up and have us a ball!
They're gonna get it tonight;
The more they turn it on the harder they'll fall!

Well, they began it!

BERNARDO AND SHARKS
Well, they began it!

ALL
And we're the ones to stop 'em once and for all,
Tonight!

ANITA
Anita's gonna get her kicks
Tonight.
We'll have our private little mix
Tonight.
He'll walk in hot and tired,
So what?
Don't matter if he's tired,
As long as he's hot
Tonight!

TONY
Tonight, tonight,
Won't be just any night,
Tonight there will be no morning star.
Tonight, tonight, I'll see my love tonight.
And for us, stars will stop where they are.
Today
The minutes seem like hours,
The hours go so slowly,
And still the sky is light . . .
Oh moon, grow bright,
And make this endless day endless night!

RIFF
I'm counting on you to be there
Tonight.
When Diesel wins it fair and square
Tonight.
That Puerto Rican punk'll
Go down.
And when he's hollered "Uncle"
We'll tear up the town!

(RIFF, TONY, and MARIA sing simultaneously)

RIFF
So I can count on you, boy?

TONY
All right.

RIFF
We're gonna have us a ball.

TONY
All right.

Womb to tomb!

Sperm to worm!

I'll see you there about eight.

Tonight, tonight
Won't be just any night,
Tonight there will be no morning star,

The Sharks are gonna have their day,
We're gonna rock it tonight.
Tonight!

Late tonight,

We're gonna rock it tonight!

Oh moon, grow bright,
And make this endless day endless night,

[Rambling Rose]

Gotta rocket in your pocket
Be coolie cool boy!

 

[Dillinger]

My "new wave" band in the 80's used to like to do odd medleys... one of our favorites was to combine "Cool" from West Side Story with "Through Being Cool by Devo...

Boy, boy, crazy boy,
Get cool, boy!
Got a rocket in your pocket,
Keep coolly cool, boy!
Don't get hot,
'Cause man, you got
Some high times ahead.
Take it slow and Daddy-O,
You can live it up and die in bed!

we're through being cool
eliminate the ninnies and the twits
going to bang some heads
going to beat some butts
time to show those evil spuds what's what
if you live in a small town
you might meet a dozen or two
young alien types who step out
and dare to declare
spank the pank who try to drive you nuts
time to clean some house
be a man or a mouse
waste those who make it tuff to get around
if you live in a big place
many factions underground
chase down mister hinky dink
so no trace can be found
put the tape on erase
rearrange a face
we always liked picasso anyway
mash 'em

Boy, boy, crazy boy!
Stay loose, boy!
Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it.
Turn off the juice, boy!
Go man, go,
But not like a yo-yo schoolboy.
Just play it cool, boy,
Real cool!

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Jet? Shark?

Can I be Steven Sondheim?

 

[Dillinger]

Nice AV Dix - did you cum... did you cum good? *grin*

 

[sunstruck]

Am I the only one on this planet that can't stand West Side Story?

Love the new AV D.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

What new AV? Did I cum? What the hell are you two talking about? What AV are you seeing? LOL

 

[sunstruck]

What new AV? Did I cum? What the hell are you two talking about? What AV are you seeing? LOL

I hate it when I loose the thread!

I was talking about Dilly's new AV.

 

[Dillinger]

I was quoting a line to DCL from a Lenny Bruce routine (that is Lenny in his AV, isn't it? Looks like I might actually have to go read his AV thread to check...)

And thanks, sunstruck - y'all know what it is?

Vonnegut?

 

[Dillinger]

Good guess... I love Vonnegut.. used to see him strolling on the streets all the time in his white suit near his home by the UN in NYC...

But its actually symbolized "The Sacred Chao" - a chao being one unit of chaos... a very important concept to Discordians... of which I consider myself one (one of many Mindfuck type groups I find myself drawn to, much like The Church of the SubGenius - ALL HAIL BOB)...

For more on Discordians and Eris Esoterica (my apple icon) you might find The Principia Discordia to be quite enlightening and entertaining...

LOL Okay, you got me. Yeah, that's a Bruce routine -- but, honestly, you can forgive me not getting that reference on THIS board...

Congradualtions Dilly!!! I have never seen Dixon stumped on a quote before!
