Lyrical Response

[The Senator]

 

Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me around
I feel numb, born with a weak heart
I guess I must be having fun

.

[KD in CA]

We're gonna break out the hats and hooters
When josie comes home
We're gonna rev up the motor scooters
When josie comes home to stay
We're gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When josie comes home

[PastaJoe]

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Or feel the need to get away-ay-ay
I find a quiet place, far from the human race
Out in the country

One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone
A new day, a new way, and new eyes
To see the dawn.
Go your way, I'll go mine and
Carry on

 

Woke up this morning,
My dog was dead.
Someone disliked him
And shot him through the head.…

(Shoot me, shoot me)

Here come old flat top
He come groovin' up slowly
He got joo joo eyeballs
He one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker
He just do what he please

[BillsFanNC]

I said the joker is a wanted man,
He makes his way all across the land,
See him sifting through the sand,

So I'll tell you all the story,
About the joker and the thief of the night,

lNew Jersey Turnpike in the wee, wee hours

I was rolling slowly because of drizzling showers

Here come a flat-top, he was moving up with me

Then come waving goodbye in a little old souped-up jitney

I put my foot on my tank and I began to roll

High in the halls of the kings who are gone

Jenny would dance with her ghosts

The ones she had lost and the ones she had found

And the ones who had loved her the most

The ones who had been gone for so very long

She couldn’t remember their names

They spun her around on the damp old stone

Spun away all her sorrow and pain

And she never wanted to leave

Never wanted to leave

Cities full of hatred 
Fear and lies 
Withered hearts 
And cruel, tormented eyes 
Scheming demons 
Dressed in kingly guise 
Beating down the multitude 
And scoffing at the wise 
Whoa can't we raise our eyes 
And make a start?
Can't we find the minds 
To lead us closer to the heart?

[WhoTom]

The blacksmith and the artist
Reflect it in their art
They forge their creativity
Closer to the heart
Yes closer to the heart

Philosophers and plowmen
Each must know his part
To sow a new mentality
Closer to the heart

[Gugny]

Businessmen, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line
Know what any of it is worth

[DaBillsFanSince1973]

I stood high by the mountain tops
Naked to the world
In front of
Every kind of girl
There was long one's, tall ones, short ones, brown ones
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
Out of the middle, came a lady
She whispered in my ear
Something crazy
She said,

Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl

From Heidruns teats the endless stream of mead

Pour me another and you’ll be my brother!

When you are thirsty and hungry for fight
There’s no need to worry
There’s mead left and right

 

We’re an army so wasted
No mead is too strong
In the Hall of the Fallen
Hear our song!

When you're alone, and life is making you lonely
You can always go
Downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know
Downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

[BillsFanNC]

Are you having a long day
Everyone you meet rubs you the wrong way
Dirty city streets smell like an ashtray
Morning bells are ringing in your ear

 

Is your brother on a church kick
Seems like just a different kind of dope sick
Better off to teach a dog a card trick
And try to have a point and make it clear

 

You should know compared
To people on a global scale
Our kind has had it relatively easy
And here with you there's always
Something to look forward to
Our angry heart beats relatively easy

 

I lost a good friend
Christmas time when folks go off the deep end
His woman took the kids and he took Klonopin
Enough to kill a man of twice his size

 

Not for me to understand
Remember him when he was still a proud man
A vandals smile a baseball in his right hand
Nothing but the blue sky in his eye

 

Still compared to those
A stones throw away from you
Our lives have both been relatively easy
Take a year and make a break
There ain't that much at stake
The answers could be relatively easy

All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don't you know
If they move too quick (oh whey oh)
They're falling down like a domino

 

All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)

They snap their teeth on your cigarette

 

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian

[WhoTom]

And if you go chasing rabbits, and you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar has given you the call

And call Alice, when she was just small

Then she appeared, brittle shooting star that dropped in my lap
Then she appeared, dressed in tricolour and phrygian cap
I was a little troubled
Hookah with my senses bubbled
All Edward leared
Then she appeared

 

[better than the obvious hookah reference....]

has anyone else rhymed "opaque" besides Beatle George?

 

Although your mind's opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake

 

(hard to believe he went into a religious ascetic mode after penning that before he was 24 years old    )

I went to see your pictures
I spread them across the floor
So this is where they are shown
Now they're probably saying to you,
"If you keep it up you'll be born.."
But you will never listen
I'll bet

I want the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
