A couple from The Stones:

Yeah, you got to mix it child
You got to fix it must be love
It's a bitch
You got to mix it child
You got to fix it but love
It's a bitch, alright

Bitch
================================================
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright
Hear him with the women just around midnight

Brown Sugar
===============================================

One from Heart:

My love is the evening breeze touching your skin
The gentle sweet singing of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early light

Crazy on You (Man I just love this song)

Common - Be:

Waiting for the Lord to rise,

I look into my daughter's eyes,

and realize - I'ma learn through her,

the Messiah, might even return through her,

If I'ma do it - I gotta change the world through her

Love that shit!

A couple from Dylan's Song to Woody

Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
'Bout a funny ol' world that's a-comin' along.
Seems sick an' it's hungry, it's tired an' it's torn,
It looks like it's a-dyin' an' it's hardly been born.

Here's to the hearts and the hands of the men
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind.

I love this one from Dylan's Positively 4th Street

Yes, I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is
To see you

Then as it was , then again it will be...................though the course may change sometimes, the river's always reached the sea.

--"Ten years gone" Led Zeppelin

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time has gone, the song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

--"Time" Pink Floyd

Townes Van Zandt - "To Live is to Fly"

Days, up and down they come

Like rain on a congadrum -

Forget most, remember some

But don't turn none away

Where you been is good and gone -

All you keep is the gettin there

We all got holes to fill -

Sometimes, they're all that's real

Some fall on you like a storm -

Sometimes you dig your own

Oh, to live is to fly -

Lord, low and high

So shake the dust off of your wings -

And the sleep out of your eyes

a potential H-bomb.

little child

dry your crying eyes
how can I explain
the fear you feel inside
cause you were born
into this evil world
where man is killing man
but no one knows just why

what have we become
just look what we have done
all that we destroyed
you must build again

when the children cry
let them know we tried
cause when the children sing
then the new world begins

The boy said: "My name's Johnny and it might be a sin,
"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."

.............Johnny said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."

Daniels, Charlie

The silicon chip inside her head
gets switched to overload

Boomtown Rats - I don't like Mondays

================================================

Yesterday don't matter if it's gone.

Jagger / Richards - Ruby Tuesday

==================================================

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream.

Thought I would throw a fun one in the mix

EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT (J Christie)

And I must keep holding on
Keep the sunshine in your mind
Everything's gonna work out fine

Grey was day and black was night
Now my lamp is shining bright
Now I know I can survive
Everything's gonna be alright
Hey hey hey
Everything's gonna be alright

Chorus
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Alright
Alright

I was sinking in the sand
Said I need a helping hand
I see things much clearer now
Never thought I would somehow

You tell me I'd done what's right
And I'm gonna win the fight
Soon as I can see the light
Everything's gonna be alright
Hey hey hey
Everything's gonna be alright

" i crawl like a viper...thru these suburban streets....
make love to these women....languid and bittersweet...
I rise when the sun goes down ....
cover every game in town....
A world of my own....."

my favorite love song....
"Early one morning while making the rounds...
took a shot of cocaine and shot my woman down"....
the great john cash

"Freedoms just another word...
for nuthin' left to lose...."

It is better to be feared - than to be loved.

Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night

The Who - Squeeze Box

The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays

Bruce Springsteen - Thunder Road

Keep you doped with religon, sex and T.V.
and you think you're so clever and classless and free
but you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see
Working Class Hero is something to be

Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna watch it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.

Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.

I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.

I wanna see it all come down.
suck it down.
flush it down.

Master Of Disguise

I’m a master of disguise,
Mystery in your eyes,
Travelling the backroads of your country.
Well, you think you’ve got my number
And then again, you wonder
Will you ever get to find the real me.

Things are not always
As they first may seem
It’s like living in a dream.

So you’d like me to reveal
All that I know and feel
At the risk of causing panic and destruction.
Well, there’s a method to this madness.
I don’t mean to cause you sadness
My course is strictly governed by instruction.

Things are not always
As they first may seem
It’s like living in a dream.

I’m a master of disguise
Not about to compromise
My position in this scheme of worldly values.
Ah, they’re calling out my name.
I’ve promised to remain
Ever faithful to the memory of what is true.

Things are not always
As they first may seem
It’s like living in a dream.

Oh, I’m living in a dream,
I’m high, I’m high.
In the cold, cold night, I’m high.

Twinkletoes you breakin my heart
You can't fuck with me - go play somewhere, I'm busy
And all you other cats throwin shots at Jigga
You only get half a bar - fuck y'all niggaz

-"Takeover" Jay-Z

Well I tried to make it sunday, but I got so damn depressed
That I set my sights on monday and I got myself undressed
I aint ready for the altar but I do agree theres times
When a woman sure can be a friend of mine

-"Sister Golden Hair" America

And a lyric I'm sure Billy Joel wrote about our fellow Covers' poster, Greyhound:

Your sister's gone out, she's on a date
You just sit at home and masturbate
Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait
For that call
