“Down On The Corner” - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Early in the evenin'
Just about supper time
Over by the courthouse
They're startin' to unwind

Four kids on the corner
Tryin' to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out
And he blows it on the harp

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Rooster hits the washboard
People just gotta smile
Blinky thumps a gut bass
And solos for a while

Poorboy twangs the rhythm out
On his kalamazoo
And Willy goes into a dance
Doubles on kazoo

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

You don't need a penny
Just to hang around
But if you've got a nickel
Won't you lay your money down?

Over on the corner
There's a happy noise
People come from all around
To watch the magic boy

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out in the street

“Gloom, Despair, Agony On Me” - Hee Haw

Gloom, despair, and agony on me
Deep dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren't for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all
Gloom, despair, and agony on me

“Some Guys Have All The Luck” - Rod Stewart

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

Alone in a crowd on a bus after work, and I'm dreaming
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty
How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you?
It seems so unfair when there's love everywhere
But there's none for me

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)

Someone to take on a walk by the lake, Lord, let it be me
Someone who's shy, someone who'll cry at sad movies
I know I would die if I ever found out she was fooling me
You're just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain't that lucky

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo, ooh-ooh)

All of my friends have a ring on their finger, they have someone
Someone to care for them, it ain't fair, I got no one
The car overheated, I called up and pleaded, there's help on the way
I called you collect, you didn't accept, you had nothing to say

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

But if you were here with me
I'd feel so happy I could cry
You are so dear to me
I just can't let you say goodbye

(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo, ooh-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)

(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo, ooh-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)

I always go commando. I have been going that way since 1980.

I have. I made her that way!

“Tom Sawyer” - Rush

A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride

Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river

What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide

Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you

No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is

And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit

The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide

Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day

Love it!

“In The Flesh?” - Pink Floyd

So ya thought ya
Might like to go to the show?
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow
Tell me, is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise

Lights!
Turn on the sound effects
Action!
Drop it, drop it on 'em, drop it on them!

“Don’t Fence Me In” - Cole Porter

Wildcat Kelley, lookin' mighty pale,
Was standin' by the sherrif's side
And when the sherrif said "I'm sendin you to jail,
Wildcat raised his head and cried

Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in.

Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies.
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise.

I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in.

Wildcat Kelley, back again in town,
was standin by his sweethearts side,
And when his sweetheart said "come on let's settle down,
Wildcat raised his head and cried

Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in

Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my Cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise.

I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't... fence me in.

“Don’t Worry” - Marty Robbins

Don't worry 'bout me, it's all over now
Though I may be blue, I'll manage somehow
Love can't be explained, can't be controlled
One day it's warm, next day it's cold

Don't pity me, 'cause I'm feelin' blue
Don't be ashamed, it might have been you
Oh-oh-oh-oh, love, kiss me one time, then go, love
I'll understand, don't worry 'bout me

Sweet, sweet, sweet love, I want you to be
As happy as I, when you loved me
I'll never forget you, your sweet memory
It's all over now, don't worry 'bout me

When one heart tells, one heart, one heart goodbye
One heart is free, one heart will cry
Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet, sweet baby sweet, baby sweet
It's alright, don't worry 'bout me

“I Want Candy” - Bow Wow Wow

I know a guy who's tough but sweet
He's so fine, he can't be beat
He's got everything that I desire
Sets the summer sun on fire

I want candy
I want candy

Go to see him when the sun goes down
Ain't no finer boy in town
You're my guy, you're what the doctor ordered
So sweet, you make my mouth water

I want candy
I want candy
Yeah

Candy on the beach, there's nothing better
But I like candy when it's wrapped in a sweater
Some day soon, I'll make you mine
And I'll have candy all the time

I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey

“Red Red Wine” - UB40

Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that I
Still need her so

Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
Mem'ries won't go
Mem'ries won't go

I'd have sworn
That with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong
Now I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart

I'd have sworn
That with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong
Now I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart

“Right Place, Wrong Time” - Dr. John

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But must have used the wrong line
I been on the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car
Head is in a bad place and I wonder what it's good for

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
My head is in a bad place
But I'm having such a good time
I've been running trying to get hung up in my mind
Really got to give myself a good talking to this time

Just need a little brain salad surgery
I got to que my insecurity

But I've been in the wrong place
But it must have been the right time
I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong song
I been in the right vein
But it seems like a wrong arm
I been in the right world
But it seems like wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong

Slipping, dodging, sneaking, creeping, hiding out down the street
See my life shaking with every who I meet
Refried confusion is making itself clear
Wonder which way do I go to get on out of here

But I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I took the right road
But I must have took a wrong turn
I took a right move
But I made it at the wrong time

I was in the right trip
But I made it in the wrong car
Head is in a good place, and I wonder what it's bad for

“Institutionalized” - Suicidal Tendencies

Sometimes I try to do things
And it just doesn't work out the way I want it to
And I get real frustrated
And like, I try hard to do it
And I like, take my time, but it just doesn't work out the way I want it to
It's like, I concentrate on it real hard, but it just doesn't work out
And everything I do and everything I try, it never turns out
It's like I need time to figure these things out
But there's always someone there going

"Hey Mike, you know, we've been noticing
You've been having a lot of problems lately, you know
You should maybe get away
And like, maybe you should talk about it, you'll feel a lot better"

And I go, "No, it's okay, you know
I'll figure it out, just leave me alone, I'll figure it out, you know
I'll just work it out myself"
They go, "Well, you know, if you wanna talk about it, I'll be here, you know
And you'll probably feel a lot better if you talk about it
So why don't you talk about it?"

I go, "No, I don't want to, I'm okay
I'll figure it out myself"
And they just keep bugging me, they just keep bugging me
And it builds up inside

So you're gonna be institutionalized
You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes
You won't have any say
They'll brainwash you until you see their way

I'm not crazy (institutionalized)
You're the one who's crazy (institutionalized)
You're driving me crazy (institutionalized)
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

I was in my room
And I was just, like, staring at the walls, thinking about everything
But then again I was thinking about nothing
And then my mom came in, and I didn't even notice she was there
She called my name and I didn't hear her
And then she started screaming, "Mike, Mike!"

And I go, "What, what's the matter?"
She goes, "What's the matter with you?"
I go, "There's nothing wrong, mom"
She goes, "Don't tell me that! You're on drugs"
I go, "No mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm okay, I'm just thinking, you know
Why don't you get me a Pepsi?"

She goes, "No, you're on drugs!"
I go, "Mom, I'm okay, I'm just thinking
She goes, "No, you're not thinking, you're on drugs!
Normal people don't act that way"
I go, "Mom, just get me a Pepsi, please"
All I want is a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
And she wouldn't give it to me, just a Pepsi

They give you a white shirt with long sleeves
Tied around your back, you're treated like thieves
Drug you up because they're lazy
It's too much work to help a crazy

I'm not crazy (institutionalized)
You're the one who's crazy (institutionalized)
You're driving me crazy (institutionalized)
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

I'm sitting in my room, my mom and my dad came in
They pulled up a chair and they sat down
They go, "Mike, we need to talk to you"
I go, "Okay, what's the matter?"
They go, "Me and your mom, we've been noticing lately you've been having a lot of problems
And you've been going off for no reason
And we're afraid you're gonna hurt somebody
And we're afraid you're gonna hurt yourself"

"So we decided that it would be in your best interest
If we put you somewhere, where you could get the help that you need"
And I go, "Wait, what are you talking about?
We decided? My best interest?
How do you know what my best interest is?
How can you say what my best interest is?
What are you trying to say, I'm crazy?
When I went to your schools, I went to your churches
I went to your institutional learning facilities
So how can you say I'm crazy?"

They say they're gonna fix my brain
Alleviate my suffering and my pain
But by the time they fix my head
Mentally, I'll be dead

I'm not crazy (institutionalized)
You're the one who's crazy (institutionalized)
You're driving me crazy (institutionalized)
They stick me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself

It doesn't matter
I'll probably get hit by a car anyway

“Use Me” - Bill Withers

My friends
Feel it's their appointed duty
They keep tryin' to tell me
All you want to do is use me
Ah-huh, but my answer (Ah-huh)
Yeah to all that use me stuff

I, I, I, I
Yes, I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good gettin' used
Oh, you just keep on usin' me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

My brother
Sit me right down and he talked to me
He told me
That I ought not to let you just walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well
Yeah, but when our talk was through

I, I, I said brother if you only knew
You'd wish that you were in my shoes
You just keep on usin' me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up

Ah-huh, sometimes
It's true you really do abuse me
Ah, you get me crowd of high class people
And then you act real rude to me
Ah-huh, but oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
When you love me I can't get enough

Ah-huh and I wanna spread the news
That it feels this good gettin' used
Oh, you just keep on usin' me
Until you use me up
Ah, until you use me up

Talkin' 'bout you usin' people
It all depends on what you do
It ain't too bad the way you're usin' me
'Cause I sure am usin' you to do the things that you do
Ah-huh, to do the things that you do

A woman is in a pet shop when she sees a parrot for sale, but the price is really cheap.

She asks the owner why the parrot’s price is that low, and he says, “Oh, that parrot lived several years in a whorehouse, so it’s vocabulary can be quite colorful."

The woman, never one to pass up a good deal, buys the parrot, thinking she could teach it some new phrases and clean up its act.

She gets home and the parrot, looking around, says, “New house, new madam.” The woman laughs, thinking that this was pretty harmless.

A few minutes later, her daughters come home and the parrot says, “New girls in the house.”

A few minutes later, her husband walks in, and the parrot says, “Hi, Bob!"

A husband comes home with a duck under his arm and says, “This is the pig I’ve been sleeping with.”

His wife looks at the duck and says, “That’s not a pig. That’s a duck.”

The husband replies to his wife, “Quiet! I wasn’t talking to you."

Uh-uh-ah! I beg to differ! It was totally inappropriate for this site and this subject. It was well within the rules.

“I’m Not In Love” - 10cc

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made

I'm not in love, no, no
(It's because)

I'd like to see you, but then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you, don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us

I'm not in love, no, no
(It's because)

(Be quiet)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)
(Big boys don't cry)

I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me

I'm not in love, no, no
(It's because)

Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time

I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made, ooh

I'm not in love
I'm not in love

“Crazy” - Patsy Cline

Crazy
I'm crazy for feeling so lonely

I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue

I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted

And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry?

Wondering
What in the world did I do

Oh, crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you

I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you

I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

“Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” - Gene Autry

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen.
But do you recall,
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer,
Had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw it,
You would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer,
Used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph,
Play in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say,
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
You'll go down in history!"

“Streets of Laredo” - Marty Robbins

As I walked out in the streets of Laredo
As I walked out in Laredo one day
I spied a young cowboy wrapped all in white linen
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay

Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Sing the dead march as you carry me along
Take me to the valley then lay the sod o'er me
I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
These words he did say as I boldly walked by
Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
Got shot in the breast and I know I must die

Go fetch me some water a cool cup of water
To cool my hot lips then the poor cowboy said
Before I return his spirit had left him
Had gone to his maker the cowboy was dead

Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
Sing the dead march as you carry me along
Take me to the valley then lay the sod o'er me
I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong

Why was the math book crying?


It had a lot of problems.

It’s because guys know where it feels best, and how to make it feel that way.

Never once. I guess I was too busy playing with my own dick to notice if he ever played with his.

“Oh, Darling” - The Beatles

Oh! Darling, please believe me
I'll never do you no harm
Believe me when I tell you
I'll never do you no harm

Oh! Darling, if you leave me
I'll never make it alone
Believe me when I beg you, ooh
Don't ever leave me alone

When you told me
You didn't need me anymore
Well you know I nearly broke down and cried
When you told me
You didn't need me anymore
Well you know I nearly broke down and died

Oh! Darling, if you leave me
I'll never make it alone
Believe me when I tell you
I'll never do you no harm
Believe me darling

When you told me, ooh
You didn't need me anymore
Well you know I nearly broke down and cried
When you told me
You didn't need me anymore
Well you know I nearly broke down and died

Oh! Darling, please believe me
I'll never let you down
Oh, believe me darling
Believe me when I tell you, ooh
I'll never do you no harm

“Oklahoma Hills” - Jim Reeves

Many years have come and gone
Since I wandered from my home
In those Oklahoma hills where I was born
Many a page of life has turned
Many a lesson I have learned
And I feel that in those hills I still belong

Way down yonder in the Indian nation
Ride my pony on the reservation
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian nation
A cowboy's life is my occupation
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born

As I sit here today, many miles I am away
From the place I rode my pony through the draw
Where the oak and blackjack trees
Kiss the playful prairie breeze
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born

Way down yonder in the Indian nation
Ride my pony on the reservation
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born
Way down yonder in the Indian nation
A cowboy's life is my occupation
In the Oklahoma hills where I was born

My younger brother used to spy on me when we were kids. I don’t know how much he saw, but he probably saw more than I had wanted him to see way back then.
