"Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together." "I've got some real estate here in my bag." So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies And we walked off to look for America. "Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh "Michigan seems like a dream to me now It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw I've come to look for America." Laughing on the bus; Playing games with the faces; She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy; I said "Be careful his bowtie is really a camera." "Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat." "We smoked the last one an hour ago." So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine And the moon rose over an open field. "Kathy, I'm lost," I said, though I knew she was sleeping. "I'm empty and aching and I don't know why."

Men who dye their hair anything but its natural color are pussies.

Are we talking about the SAME Todd Rundgren? Has he aged well, because his mid-70's look was hideous. RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Midwest Spy - 04-11-2012 Hello, it's me. I've thought about us for a long, long time. Maybe I think too much, but something's wrong. There's something here that doesn't last too long. Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine. Seeing you. Or seeing anything as much as I do you. I take for granted that you're always there. I take for granted that you just don't care. Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through. It's important to me, that you know you are free. Cause I'd never want to make you change for me. Think of me. You know that I'd be with if you if I could. I'll come around to see you once in awhile. Or if I ever need a reason to smile. And spend the night if you think I should. It's important to me, that you know you are free. Cause I'd never want to make you change for me.

Start with Ric Okasic or whatever that guys name is from the Cars............his wife is smokin though! And the lead singer guy from Steely Dan but I think his wife smokes carbolas or white owl or something.

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to. Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you. Though I know that evenings empire has returned into sand, Vanished from my hand, Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping. My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet, And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship. My senses have been stripped, May hands can't feel to grip, My toes too numb to step, Wait only for my bootheels to be wandering. I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, Into my own parade. Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it. Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun, It's not aimed at anyone, It's just escaping on the run, And but for the sky there are no fences facing. And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme, To your tambourine in time. It's just a ragged clown behind, I wouldn't pay it any mind, It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing. Take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind. Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted frightened trees, Out to the windy bench, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky With one hand waving free Silhoutted by the sea Circled by the circus sands With all memory of fate Driven deep beneath the waves Let me forget about today until tomorrow By: Bob Dylan RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - HairOfTheDog - 04-24-2012 Okay, Maggot. Let's rock. I'm starting off a new round of "lyrical dialogue relay" with what I perceive to be one of your favorite bands (mine too). Only one dog in here tonight, but I'm read for some joy... Jeremiah was a bullfrog Was a good friend of mine I never understood a single word he said But I helped him a-drink his wine And he always had some mighty fine wine Singin'... Joy to the world All the boys and girls now Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea Joy to you and me If I were the king of the world Tell you what I'd do I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war Make sweet love to you Sing it now... Joy to the world All the boys and girls Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea Joy to you and me You know I love the ladies Love to have my fun I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider A straight shootin' son-of-a-gun I said a straight shootin' son-of-a-gun Joy to the world All the boys and girls Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea Joy to you and me RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Maggot - 04-24-2012 (04-24-2012, 07:26 PM)HairOfTheDog Wrote: Okay, Maggot.
