Jeremiah was a bullfrog Was a good friend of mine I never understood a single word he said But I helped him a-drinkin' his wine And he always had some mighty fine wine

Inspired by a post in the Dean Pees thread...

But February made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride Something touched me deep inside The day the music died

Hey, nineteen That's 'Retha Franklin She don't remember the Queen of Soul It's hard times befallen The sole survivors She thinks I'm crazy But I'm just growin' old

I feel the earth move under my feet I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down I feel my heart start to trembling Whenever you're around

Spent my days with a woman unkind Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine Made up my mind to make a new start Going To California with an aching in my heart

My brain is just a jellyfish in the ocean of my head 'Cuz I drank too much tequila, and I woke up seein' red And now all I really want from life is to crawl back into bed On account of my brain is just a jellyfish in the ocean of my head

I was in the kitchen, Seamus (that's the dog) was outside Well, I was in the kitchen, Seamus, my old hound, was outside Well, the sun was sinkin' slowly But my old hound just sat right down and cried

When I first saw the thread, I thought the subject line said "... lack of subtleties."

He may not be in physical pain, but that doesn't mean he's not suffering. I can't imagine what blindness and dementia would be like as a person, let alone a dog, but it must be confusing and frustrating, no matter who. We put our first dog down at 15 years old. In retrospect, I think we waited about a year too long. She was always nervous going to the vet and I couldn't let her last moments of life be at a place she hated, so we found a mobile vet service who came to our house to put her down. It was worth the extra cost. I'm sorry you're going through this, but take comfort in the fact that you gave him a good 11 years.

I don't mind you comin' here And wastin' all my time 'Cause when you're standin', oh so near I kinda lose my mind It's not the perfume that you wear It's not the ribbons in your hair And I don't mind you comin' here And wastin' all my time

A rabbi and a priest were talking. The priest asked the rabbi if he was disappointed that he couldn't eat bacon. The rabbi said, "In my younger days, I strayed from my religion and ate bacon once. It was good, and I sort of miss it." Then the rabbi asked the priest if he was disappointed about having to remain celibate. The priest said, "Well, before I entered the priesthood, I slept with my high-school sweetheart, so I know what sex is like." The rabbi grinned and said, "It's better than bacon, isn't it?"

Get myself a car I feel power as I fly Oh now I'm really in control It all looks fine to the naked eye But it don't really happen that way at all Don't happen that way at all

If you had the kind of money they have, you'd find ways to ease the boredom. If I had 1/100th of the money they have, I'd fully retire with enough of an entertainment budget that I wouldn't get bored.

If I were Josh and the Bills did this, I'd play out my contract and leave in free agency.

Could this be magic? Or could this be love? Could this turn tragic? You know that magic often does And I see lonely ships upon the water (Better save the women and children first) Sail away with someone's daughter (Better save the women and children first)

Every day I get in the queue (too much, Magic Bus) To get on the bus that takes me to you (too much, Magic Bus) I'm so nervous, I just sit and smile (too much, Magic Bus) Your house is only another mile (too much, Magic Bus)

All through the shadows they come and they go With only one thing in common They got the fire down below

I got a woman, want to ball all day I got a woman, she won't be true, no I got a woman, stay drunk all the time I said I got a little woman and she won't be true

Well I'm-a-runnin' down the road Tryin' to loosen my load I've got seven women on my mind Four that wanna own me Two that wanna stone me One says she's a friend of mine

God save the child who rings that bell May have one good ring, baby, you can't tell One watch by night, one watch by day If you get confused, listen to the music play

I remember reading somewhere that after 2112, Geddy's doctor told him to stop singing like a banshee or he'd ruin his voice.

As I was walkin' 'round Grosvenor Square Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air From the other direction, she was calling my eye Could be an illusion, but I might as well try, might as well try
