I do: Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long there is time to kill today
And then one day you find that ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
I heard this in 1973 and since then have lived every minute of every day as if there was no tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving.
You are young and life is long there is time to kill today
And then one day you find that ten years have got behind you

“Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like on
Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song and let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you”
Everythin', everythin', everythin's gonna be alright this mornin'
Ooh yeah, whoaw
Now when I was a young boy, at the age of five
My mother said I was, gonna be the greatest man alive
But now I'm a man, way past 21
Want you to believe me baby,
I had lot's of fun
I'm a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
I'm a man
I'm a full grown man
I'm a man
I'm a natural born lovers man
I'm a man
I'm a rollin' stone
I'm a man
I'm a hoochie coochie man
Sittin' on the outside, just me and my mate
You know I'm made to move you honey,
Come up two hours late
Wasn't that a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
I'm a man
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
Man-child
I'm a hoochie coochie man
The line I shoot will never miss
When I make love to a woman,
She can't resist
I think I go down,
To old Kansas Stew
I'm gonna bring back my second cousin,
That little Johnny Cocheroo
All you little girls,
Sittin'out at that line
I can make love to you woman,
In five minutes time
Ain't that a man
I spell mmm, aaa child, nnn
That represents man
No B, O child, Y
That mean mannish boy
Man
I'm a full grown man
Man
I'm a natural born lovers man
Man
I'm a rollin' stone
I'm a man-child
I'm a hoochie coochie man
Well, well, well, well
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me child
Don't hurt me, don't hurt, don't hurt me child
Well, well, well, well
Yeah
And serpents of sin!
All your dastardly doings are past
For a holy endeavor is now to begin
And virtue shall triumph at last!”
Billy Bragg – The Saturday Boy Lyrics
I'll never forget the first day I met her
That september morning was clear and fresh
The way she spoke and laughed at my jokes
And the way she rubbed herself
Against the edge of my desk
She became a magic mystery to me
And we'd sit together in double
History twice a week
And some days we'd walk the same way home
And it's surprising how quick
A little rain can clear the streets
We dreamed of her and compared our dreams
But that was all that I ever tasted
She lied to me with her body you see
I lied to myself 'bout the chances I'd wasted
The times we were close
Were far and few between
In the darkness at the dances in the school canteen
Did she close her eyes like I did
As we held each other tight
And la la la la la la la la means I love you
She danced with me and I still hold that memory
Soft and sweet
And I stare up at her window
As I walk down her street
But I never made the first team,
I just made the first team laugh
And she never came to the phone
She was always in the bath
I had to look in the dictionary
To find out the meaning of unrequited
While she was giving herself for free
At a party to which I was never invited
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know
If I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest“
Happy Birthday to you.
Happy Birthday Flagooner.
Happy Birthday to you.
Not that it means a lot, i've just heard it a lot.

"Gotta Kill Captain Stupid" (edited lyrics)
[Mike Muir/Mike Clark]
Ah damn, we got a lot of stupid people
Doing a lot of stupid things
Thinking a lot of stupid thoughts
And if you want to see one
Just look in the mirror
Brothers killing brothers, what up with that?
Can't you see they're laughing, that ain't funny
Babies making babies, that ain't love
You just got screwed over, get some respect
And I don't understand why
People be bringin' Captain Stupid in their lives
Treating him like a superhero
Glorifying him when he ain't nothing but a superpunk
And you see, you're the one who's gonna have to stop him
'Cause you're the one that started him
Oh, what's that?
So now you say life sucks
Well, ninety-nine percent of it's
What you make of it...
So if your life sucks, you suck
What's that crap you're smoking, playing the fool
Waste your life for nothing, when you're something
What the hell you thinking, mind pollution
Got to get back control, it's your life fool
What's that now?
Ah, so you're scared to do something about it
Well, you better be scared not to do something about it
Because if you don't kill Captain Stupid
Captain Stupid gonna kill you
Got to kill Captain Stupid...fool
These two boots of mine have brought me a long way
Through rain and sunshine, Through badlands and better days
Well I've seen a thousand faces, and I'll see a thousand more
This life is a long journey- And it's not over that's for sure
So just remember when you're lying
With your back against the floor
And someone yells surrender
But you want to fight more
Just remember that feeling
Gonna keep you alive
Get you over hurdles and through struggles in your life
So life throws you a curve and you don't know if you'll survive
You withdraw from yourself; your luck has taken a dive
You think to yourself, Could this really be the end
You try to find your faith, But it's gone like a lost friend
So just remember when you're lying
With your back against the floor
And someone yells surrender
But you want to fight more
Just remember that feeling
Gonna keep you alive
Get you over hurdles and through struggles in your life
Oh yeah
He says: "life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone"
Oh, let it rock, let it roll
Let the bible belt come and save my soul
Holdin' on to sixteen as long as you can
Change is coming 'round real soon
Make us woman and man
Oh yeah, life goes on
A little ditty 'bout Jack and Diane
Two American kids doin' the best they can
To be just like I am
But everybody wants you
To be just like them
They sing while they slave and just get bored
I ain't gonna work on, nah
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more

Maggie's Farm by Bob Dylan
Well, I try my best
To be just like I am
But everybody wants you
To be just like them
They sing while you slave and I just get bored
I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s farm no more
Old worn-out bar stools and 'old worn-out memories with no one and no place to stay.
One who'll take me for myself
And if I find my hard headed woman
I won't need nobody else, no no no!
I'm looking for hard headed woman (headed woman)
One who'll make me do my best
And if I find my hard headed woman
I know the rest of my life will be blessed yes (yes) yes yes
I know a lot of fancy dancers
People who can glide you on the floor
They move so smooth but have no answers (Ooo oooo oo oo)
When you ask them - What you come here for?
I don't know - Why?
I know! Many fine feathered friends
But their friendliness depends on how you do
They know!
Many sure fired ways
to find out the one who pays
and how you do
I'm looking for hard headed woman (headed woman)
One who will make me fell so goo-oo-oood
And if I find my hard headed woman
I know my life will be as it should yes yes yes
I'm looking for hard headed woman (headed woman)
One who'll make me do my best
And if I find my hard headed woman...
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin
Give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow
