Dirty Water

Artist: The Standells

(Spoken:)

I'm gonna tell you a story

I'm gonna tell you about my town

I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby

Aww, it's all about my town

Yeah, down by the river

Down by the banks of the river Charles (aw, that's what's happenin' baby)

That's where you'll find me

Along with lovers, fuggers, and thieves (aw, but they're cool people)

Well I love that dirty water

Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, you're the Number One place)

Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated)

Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame)

But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh

That just once those doors weren't locked (I like to save time for

my baby to walk around)

Well I love that dirty water

Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Because I love that dirty water

Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Well, I love that dirty water (I love it, baby)

I love that dirty water (I love Baw-stun)

I love that dirty water (Have you heard about the Strangler?)

I love that dirty water (I'm the man, I'm the man)

I love that dirty water (Owww!)

I love that dirty water (Come on, come on)

Here's a page of hogwash for you soccer fans to enjoy - and to see that N. Americans still don't 'get ' the game ; including it's sportwriters who one would think would know a bit more and make some sense ... :P

I keep wondering what people expected when they got him. One good player doesn't help much if the rest of the team is crap.

I completely lost track of that whole story... I'm not interested in him or American football (soccer :/ ) and this is the first time I've heard about him since he changed teams and went to LA... doesn't surprise me though. This is pretty much what I expected.

Mr. Spice Girl himself has done absolutely nothing since coming to this country. What'd he get?...about half a billion? And he's played about 5 games? That's 100 million per game! Righteous bucks! He's even given soccer a bad name over here....and that was hard to do. I think I'm gonna call him Carl Pavano from now on.

Can you imagine missing as many classes in school due to illness/injury , skipping others due to some other 'commitments' , and only half-as*ed taking part in the ones you do come to - and still receiving a B- ?!?! I might've got into Harvard - on scholarship- with more teachers like that .

:doh: :laughing: :stars:

Then, what exactly is this guy's claim to fame? Other than a hot wife and a stupid haircut?

:afro: :afro: :afro: :jester: :confused:

seriously, I have absolutly no idea :stars:

granted he's not a bad player, but there are dozens who are better, imho - even in England ;) :grin:

it's probably the wife and haircut that made him interesting to glamour magazines (as opposed to sport magazines) which caused his publicity... :P
