Lyrical Response

[WhoTom]

Once upon a time there was an engineer.
Drove a locomotive both far and near.
Accompanied by a monkey that would sit on a stool
Watching everything the engineer would do.

One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat,
He left the monkey sitting on the driver's seat,
The monkey pulled the throttle, the locomotive jumped the gun,
And did 90 miles an hour down the mainline run.

 

[SinceThe70s]

I could remember not long ago
We took a cruise down on Hotel Row.

 

Mainline Florida, oh say.
Mainline Florida, O.K.

[WhoTom]

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
And cruise up and down the road.

 

[PastaJoe]

Cruising down the street in my '64
Jockin' the freaks clocking the dough
Went to the park to get the scoop
Knuckleheads out there cold shooting some hoops
A car pulls up who can it be?
A fresh El Camino rollin' Kilo G
He rolls down his window and he started to say
"It's all about making that GTA"

[KD in CA]

If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet

[Bill from NYC]

All around

I see the purple shades of evening

And on the ground

The shadows fall and one again you're in my arms

So tenderly

 

The sidewalks in the street,

The concrete and the clay beneath my feet

Begins to crumble

But love will never die

Because we'll see the mountains tumble

Before we say goodbye.

[WhoTom]

If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me

Kind woman, I give you my all
Kind woman, nothing more

[KD in CA]

I, I, I just wanna be your everything
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
The things you are to me
And not some puppet on a string
Oh, if I, if I stay here without you darlin' I will die
I want you layin' in the love I have to bring
I'd do anything to be your everything

[SinceThe70s]

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me you can't see a thing

[RaoulDuke79]

Oh, dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Oh, dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light

[Bill from NYC]

Come Saturday morning
I'm goin' away with my friend
Well Saturday-laugh more than half of the day
Just I and my friend (my friend)
Dressed up in our rings and our Saturday things
And then we'll move on
But we will remember
Long after Saturday's gone

[PastaJoe]

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!
S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y night!

 

Gonna keep on dancing
To the rock and roll
On Saturday night, Saturday night
Dancin' to the rhythm
In our heart and soul
On Saturday night, Saturday night

[Keukasmallies]

Monday, Monday, can't trust that day;

Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way.

[SinceThe70s]

Tuesdays gone with the wind.

[WhoTom]

Any way the wind blows,

Doesn't really matter to me.

 

[SinceThe70s]

Will the wind ever remember?
The names it has blown in the past

[RaoulDuke79]

Well now, they call me the breeze
I keep blowin' down the road
I ain't got me nobody
I don't carry me no load

[KD in CA]

Life was an infinite number
Livin one day to another
Lookin for the end of summer

Anyway the wind blows
And we can't see around the bend
We never know where the road might end
We just go any way the wind blows

[Gugny]

She sings a song and
I listen to what it says:
If you want a friend
Feed any animal...
There was so much space
I cut me a piece
With some fine wine
It brought peace to my mind
In the summertime...
And it rolled

[RaoulDuke79]

Business men, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody offered his word
