Flash - Queen

Did you hear what happened to Jenny Droe?

Couldn't believe it, but it's true

Twenty-six, and now she's dead

I wish that I could've died instead

Nothing That I Didn't Know - Procul Harem

In America every man is free

To take care of his home and his family

You'll be as happy as a monkey in a monkey tree

You're all gonna be an American

New Frontier ~ Donald Fagen

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey

Over pieces of the ground.

Silly monkeys give them thumbs,

They forge a blade,

And where there's one

they're bound to divide it,

^Right In Two ~ Tool

Well I sit here all alone

No one's gonna do me wrong tonight

It seems I've been through it all

And there's no one I could call to get it right

Loving Blind - Clint Black

In the lazy water meadow I lay me down.

All around me golden sun flakes settle on the ground.

Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon

Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room.

Grantchester Meadows - Pink Floyd

We is headin' for bear on I-one-oh

'Bout a mile outta Shaky Town

I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck.

"And I'm about to put the hammer down."

Well the note said Mrs. Johnson

You're wearing your dresses way too high

And it's reported you've been drinkin'

And a-runnin' 'round with men and goin' wild

Harper Valley PTA - Jeannie C. Riley

It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty, delta day

I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay

One of my faves. Ode To Billy Joe - Bobbie Gentry

The local rock group down the street

Is trying hard to learn their song

Seranade the weekend squire, who just came out to mow his lawn.

pleasent valley sunday-the monkees

Well the night was falling as the desert world

Began to settle down

In the town they’re searching for us every where

Cause we never will be found

"Band On The Run" - Wings

I took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the tracks

I stood on the rails till I saw that train

Just to see how my heart would react

Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate

And for them I would not disagree

But I never learned nothing from playing it safe

I say fate should not tempt me

i take my chances by mary chapin carpinter

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Wish you were here ~ Pink Floyd

What if I ride? What if you walk?

What if you rock around the clock?

Tick-tock, tick-tock

What if you did? What if you walk?

What if you tried to get off, baby?

Drive - REM

And you cling to the things they sold you

Did you cover your eyes when they told you

That he can't come back

Because he has no children

To come back for?

It's hard to love

There's so much to hate

Hanging on to hope

When there is no hope to speak of

Praying For Time - George Michael

Give me your own special smile

Life is so easy

When youre beside me

"Just You 'N Me" - Chicago

E Hawai`i, e ku`u one hanau e

O Hawaii, O sands of my birth

Ku`u home kulaiwi nei

My native home

`Oli no au i na pono lani e

I rejoice in the blessings of heaven

E Hawai`i, aloha e

O Hawaii, aloha

(Sorry, I couldn't resist listing this Rev. Lorenzo Lyons hymn, since it has become an official "sacred"/benedictory song for formal and official events.)

Hawai`i Aloha ~ Makua Laiana

One of these mornings

You're going to rise up singing

Then you'll spread your wings

And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning

There's a'nothing can harm you

With daddy and mamma standing by

Summertime - Janis Joplin :bow: :bow: :bow:

Now you are here today,

But easily you might just slip away.

'Cause we live in a time,

When paintings have no color, words don't rhyme.

And that's why I've travelled far

'Cause I come so together where you are.

"Scream" - Michael (featuring Janet) Jackson

And I carry it with me like my daddy did

But I'm living the dream that he kept hid

Moving me down the highway, rolling me down the highway

Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

Jim Croce ~ I Got A Name

Gonna strike all the big red words

From my little black book

Gonna do just what I please

Gonna wear no socks and shoes

With nothing to do but feed

All the kangaroos

Cowgirl In The Sand ~ Mr. Neil Young :rockon: :rockon:

It comes down to reality, and it's fine with me cause I've let it slide

I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside

I don't have any reasons

I left them all behind...
