Great way of describing how someone can feel controlled by another. I love the usage of the puppet to show this meaning. You paint a very clear picture of what you're trying to say, even though some of the wording can go unknown to those with smaller vocabularies.
This is the only line I don't quite follow
"The faded off-white chipped yellow"
Is it off-white or is it yellow? Or is it both? To me it sounds like the smile is off-white while the chipped portions are yellow. Is that what it's saying? If so, then I did read it right.

It's pretty good, but what's the stuff in the beginning? It's a good way of asking why while trying to convince the other that things are as bad as they think.
This line
"You won?t smile for a while."
Sounds a little goofy. Using smile and while in the same line just doesn't sound right. Maybe "for quite some time" or something along those lines instead. Otherwise it's good!

Happy Anniversary Carole. I hope that you have found many wonderful people to talk to here on Songfacts (I know I have). Of course today is the 21st and I wasn't on yesterday, but Happy Anniversary anyway.

I agree with Mairi, it has the type of flow that really goes well with punk music. Basic and to the point. I think you should try putting it to music and see how it comes together.
Hey Karhul, you have to remember that writing is a way for people to get their emotions and thoughts out of their heads without attacking anyone in the process (physically attacking). It's a good outlet for relief.

I can picture someone reading this at a poetry reading in a coffee house in New York City. It's has a very cool and rhythmic sound to it, but it would sound odd to music. Much better spoken than sang (just from what I was doing in my head). Very interesting...

SKYNYRD!
!! You guys ROCK!

It's definitely that the words don't sound as poetic. Especially the word "merged". Sounds to scientific then poetic.
-
It's a good song, although I didn't listen to it, just read the lyrics. I'm not quite sure about this part in the chorus though
The voices all turned into to one,the sounds they merged together
Other than the extra "to" in there, it just doesn't sound right. The first line is all right, but the second line just doesn't seem to fit. Not sure why though, but when I read it, that line stands out. Otherwise it's a pretty good piece. I'm a little perplexed on the meaning as the first verse leans one way while the bridge seems to lean another.

Wow Mark, it sounds like you're starting to get over the big break up. It's a good song, but the sadness you've been writing about seems to be a little overwhelming lately. It's nice to see that you write with your emotions and fill a song with that, but when will we see some happiness come from you? But I really hate to say this, I've read better songs from you. I think you can do better, but it's still better than a lot of them I've seen.

Most of the current cartoons are crap. They don't have enough violence in cartoons anymore!

I don't pay much attention to politics and I yearn for variety. I'll have to check it out sometime. Thanks FF!

I picked up Southern Rock Opera (a 2-disc rock opera about Lynyrd Skynyrd) a couple weeks ago and it's absolutely wonderful. A total modern Southern Rock band! I would love to see these guys in concert. I only wish there was a radio station around here that played non-mainstream music.

Oh dear Lord. Why do religious groups always have to go out of their way to find things that aren't really there? I'm Christian and I think it's rediculous. Spongebob is meant to make children and stoned teenagers laugh. C'mon, he's funny. I love watching Spongebob with my son.

Del Shannon committed suicide.
Dee Dee Ramone o'd.
Other sites with loads of info are died and gone to rock n roll heaven and music cemetery
Aren't all the Ramones but one dead?
John Entwistle died in June of 2002.
And no, Ronnie Van Zant wasn't buried in a Neil Young shirt.

yeah, im sure freddy mercury was sitting and thinking, "oo, lets write a songs with a backwards message! that will be fun! lets say its fun to smoke marijuana". i can picture him now...
it might be fun to try and find messages but seriously, just cos you saw on tv or read it on the internet doesnt mean its true. the backwards message can be interpreted in any way, it could be saying "lets go eat a banana"!
thsi whole conversation reminds me of when white noise came out and they had people on tv who believed their dead relatives had come back to talk to them , played some random static noise and said "thats definitely my son, i recognise the voice!"
That's what I heard when listening to Pink Floyd backwards...
"Let's eat a banana...
Everyone eat a banana....
Bananas are so good for you...
Let's eat a banana!"
It was scary. All day long I wanted to eat a banana. Oh the humanity.
Did you know that if you listened to Lynyrd Skynyrd backwards you would hear the solos first and the words last? Whoa...!

It's too hard to come up with the perfect collaberation. Besides, we already found one of the best out there... ::

What's Memphis like in May? Is it warm? If we're going to be camping, it has to be warm enough to actually want to camp.
May, August, and September are also considerations if the weather is right.
Thanks Elvish!!!

I love women... couldn't live without them...
::Oh yeah, and my son.

I don't know what to say... it's very sad.

Robert Plant is touring, but so far there are no plans for a Led Zeppelin reunion tour.
-
Didn't they die in the same intersection exactly a year apart from each other?
-
Aah yes, in fact I believe you've mentioned that before. Personal emotion can really bring out the writer in many people. Let your mind flow and your pen go and maybe it will help you get through it easier.
-
I like it, but it's a little saddening. Kind of depressing, but the wording is done well. Although you may want to revise this line:
"Monday has come, I still morn this"
For some reason it just doesn't sound quite right. It seems that your music lately has a very sad theme in mind.

I'd go even further and call it 15 years, 1964 - 1979!

I'm very happy to see that Minneapolis is not on this list. That actually makes me feel better for living in the Twin Cities.
