"A man needs something he can hold on to,
a 9 pound hammer, or a woman like you.
Either one of those things will do"

I've been down this road before
I remember every tree
Every single blade of grass
Holds a special place for me
And I remember every town
And every hotel room
And every song I ever sangOn a guitar out of tunejohn prine-i remember everythingShe don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
She looks down her nose at money
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
She's my baby I'm her honey
I'm never gonna let her goHe ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
He's my baby
And I'm his honey
Never gonna let him gojohn prine- in spite of ourselves
one of dylan's heroes, and mine. ripjp

AIC. Dirt
I want to taste dirty, a stinging pistol
In my mouth, on my tongue
I want you to scrape me from the walls
And go crazy like you've made me

You say the spark's gone, well get an electrician,
And save your line about needing to be free,
All that's bullshit babe, you just want rid of me''

From their 4th album 2112, RUSH took a chance and tried something new and different. The record company was NOT happy but they forged ahead and THIS album will still be fresh in the year 2112 long after we are all gone.
III. Discovery
What can this strange device be?
When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
It's got wires that vibrate and give music
What can this thing be that I found?
See how it sings like a sad heart
And joyously screams out its pain
Sounds that build high like a mountain
Or notes that fall gently like ra
I can't wait to share this new wonder
The people will all see its light
Let them all make their own music
The Priests praise my name on this night.
IV. Presentation
To come before you so
But I've found an ancient miracle
I thought that you should know
Listen to my music
And hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life
I know that it will reach you.
Yes, we know it's nothing new
It's just a waste of time
We have no need for ancient ways
The world is doing fine
Another toy will help destroy
The elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim
It doesn't fit the plan.
I can't believe you're saying
These things just can't be true
Our world could use this beauty
Just think what we might do.
Listen to my music
And hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life
I know that it will reach you.
Don't annoy us further
We have our work to do.
Just think about the average
What use have they for you?
Another toy will help destroy
The elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim
It doesn't fit the plan.

"Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick,
The one that makes me scream" she said,
"The one that makes me laugh" she said,
And threw her arms around my neck..Show me how you do it,
And I promise you I promise that,
I'll run away with you,
I'll run away with you''

''And I who live here forever and keep leaving, the end before I see,every night that passes, I turn again, I become darkand I surrender, to your rhythm that is still burning,this body, which remains without shadow for years.Every night that passes like a movieand everything we experienced is projected against the backdrop of the square.Every night that always passes hereand I keep leaving before we are left alone, I do not see the end''

Give it to me baby uh huh uh huh
Give it to me baby uh huh uh huh”0 -
But I crumble completely when you cry
It seems like once again you've had to greet me with goodbye
I'm always just about to go and spoil a surprise
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon

you can’t call it cheating....she reminds me of you.
if you don’t expect too much from me you might not be let down.
your high hopes keep you alone.

''And if you bury me,
add three feet to it

two for your sweat
three for the strange

the lights will not fade''The Walkabouts – The Light Will Stay On

''Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me,
Those who find they're touched by madness
Sit down next to me,
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me,In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate, in tears
In love, in fear, in hate..

“Son come running
You better come quick
This rotgut moonshine is making me sick
Your Mama called the law and they're gonna take me away
Down so far even the Devil won't stay
Where I call to the Lord with all my soul
I can hear him rattling the chains on the door
He couldn't get in I could see he tried
Through the shadows of the cage around the forty watt light”
