I read about some squirrely guy,
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'.
An' I wonder just how long,
The rest of us can count on bein' free.
They love our milk an' honey,
But they preach about some other way of livin'.
When they're runnin' down my country, hoss,
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me.

With all the new legislation & taxes I can't get a childhood favorite out of my head!

Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free

TRAIN- Get to me.

Go on hitch a ride on the back
of a butterfly
There's no better way to fly
To get to me
I look around at what I got
And without you, it ain't a lot
But I got everything, with you, everything

I have never taken life
Yet I have often paid the price
And you, you are a victim of this age
And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Has got me locked up in a cage

Youve got to learn to live until no end
But first you must learn to swim
All over again

I had forgotten about this song until I was flipping through my cd case.
Creed: My Own Prison

A court is in session a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today, just my own sin
The walls are cold and pale the cage made of steel
Screams fill the room alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound my breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around my face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence expecting no return
Here there is no penance my skin begins to burn

Whatever makes you happy,
whatever you want.
You're so fucking special,
I wish I was special.

I sucked the moon
I spoke too soon
And how much did it cost?
I was dropped from moonbeams
And sailed on shooting stars

from one of the great poets of our life time, and the land of gibble...

Well she ain’t no Cinderella
When she’s getting undressed
‘Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That’s why she’s making six figures working three days a week

Edmond,OK
......As I want you to be
As a friend
As a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time
Hurry up
The choice is yours
Don't be late
Take a rest
As a friend .......

It says right there in the constitution
It's really A-OK to have a revolution
When the leaders that you made
Just don't make the grade
Oh, mommy, I ain't no commie
But I hate to bust your bubble
Cause there's gonna be some trouble soon


true enough in the 70's.........and it comes around..

remember the group?

Don't you guys hate it when your having an awesome dream and then your woken by something or someone?

Daft Punk- Digital Love
Last night I had a dream about you
In this dream I'm dancing right beside you
And it looked like everyone was having fun
the kind of feeling I've waited so long

Don't stop come a little closer
As we jam the rythm gets stronger
There's nothing wrong with just a little little fun
We were dancing all night long

The time is right to put my arms around you
You're feeling right
You wrap your arms around too
But suddenly I feel the shining sun
Before I knew it this dream was all gone

Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists
To prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again...

wow, that sounds pretty depressing, hahahaha. I'm guessing the dude wants to die or try to live but doesn't really want to.

How about some Rush, from the song The Trees.

Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson

There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas

The trouble with the maples
(and theyre quite convinced theyre right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light
But the oaks cant help their feelings
If they like the way theyre made
And they wonder why the maples
Cant be happy in their shade?

There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream `oppression!`
And the oaks, just shake their heads

So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
the oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light
Now theres no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet,
Axe,
And saw ...

Kid Rock - "Cadillac Pussy"

I seen a fly slimmy on the avenue
When i was on tour in baton rouge
A mean little missy with a attitude
I played it smooth
No need to be rude
I stopped the ship
Stepped off like chewie..
Ran some game like louie louie
Talked her on the bus
Talked her out of her shorts
No lie y'all, im here 2 report

She had some cadillac pussy
Some cadillac pussy
She had some cadillac pussy
She had some cadillac pussy
Man it would drive you wild

I'm more of a Spirit of Radio, person; but Rush's lyrics, even if they can be interpreted differently, are in reality (most) quite bland. Now something like:

"And in the naked light I saw
ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
people hearing without listening,
people writing songs that voices never share.
And no one dare
disturb the sound of silence."

:thumbsup:
