"I wish I had a dime for every bad time
But the bad times always seem to keep the change" Guy Clark "Anyhow, I Love You"

"Pack up all your dishes
Make note of all good wishes
Say goodbye to the landlord for me
That son of a bitch has always bored me
Throw out them LA papers
And that moldy box of vanilla wafers
Adios to all this concrete
Gonna get me some dirt road back street

If I can just get off of this LA freeway
Without getting killed or caught
I'd be down that road in a cloud of smoke
To some land that I ain't bought bought bought" Guy Clark "L.A. Freeway"

"Sit tall in the saddle, Hold your head up high
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
And live like you ain't afraid to die
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"

Gordon Lightfoot "The wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald "


"The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they called Gitche Gumee. The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead when the skies of November turn gloomy. With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty. That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early"

Awesome Bone-chilling Lyrics in Alla Xlu Elu's - Down For Life track. OMG especially the verse starting at 1:09

"
[Verse 2: Billy Obey]
When your guts spill profusely, I'm reborn in blood, When you bleed there is a new me!
I'm a nice guy but the streak consuming, feel that evil inside, I feel that creature blooming
(I've lied a lot truthfully)
But it works beautifully for the music scene
I don't write raps, I write eulogies
Shit I butcher like Abdullah see
I was a weirdo and it wasn't cool to be (musically) for you
For the other beat producing, like a voice in my head that frequently speak to me
The frequency's in tune Lee (with the possession)
Entities conveniently speak through me
This isn't music... this is mutiny
Life's a game and I beat you brutally, fruitlessly slave your days away, tryin' to make a name, but that day never came!!!
"

And MAN he delivers it hauntingly well!!!

It's one of a handful of tracks this band DOESN'T have on Youtube! Only on the CD.

Oh Wait... sh*t... DUH!!!...... if I'm being honest... within Dr Demento's - "FishHeads" song ... there is.. in my estimation one of the most fun and surprising lyrics to be sprung upon a listener within this one rapid-fire paced hyper-rushed verse wedged in the middle of that song!

And it goes like:

<chorus>
Fish heads fish heads,
Roly poly fish heads,
Fish heads fish heads,
Eat them up yum

<rapid-fire verse>
Roly poly fish heads are never seen
Drinking cappucino in Italian resturants,
With oriental women,........ yeahhhhhh!!!!!!

<chorus>
Fish heads fish heads,
Roly poly fish heads,
Fish heads fish heads,
Eat them up yum

And one I've always felt definitely stood the test of time in it's bravado is

Big Daddy Kane - Cause I Can Do it Too Right!


Move over bacon cause there's somethin meatier
A natural born lover with love to give free to ya
Meatier, so all you bacon lovers move over
'Cause I'm so smooth they should call me Blackanova
I'm not tryin to say that I'm number one
I'm just a smooth operator that gets the job done
So, let me lick you from head to toe
Real..... slow.....
'Cause ever since I was young I could keep girls sprung
Just by the movement of my tongue
I remember it all started,
way back In umm...Kindergarten!!
Some played with Lego's, some played with Play-Doh
But I was feelin girls like a ripe tomato
And now it's 1990 and you can find me as I dunk
Lockin up girls like I want
Yes I got a harem, but I don't share em
I collect em like Playdium and mmm, you gotta see em
Because the ladies is all I dream of
And not even Anita Baker can give sweeter love
You know why?
'Cause I can do it right [x4]
Yes I can!
Step up girls and get somethin to treasure
And welcome to the Smooth Operator's Palace of Pleasure
And if you're wonderin if I want it
I got a Kraftmatic with your name written on it
I reminisce sayin I take em eight to eighty
But I was just kiddin, no you have to be a lady
Even if you're too young, with the hypest body
I just don't go to a Similac party
So all those of age, we can get intimate
Bump up to this bumper, you can get your fender bent
I treat girls just like pastry
Mmmm tmm tmm tmm......Tasty!
Very kinky when it comes to hanky-panky
A well known player, but not for the Yankees
I won't say I'm the baddest or portray that role
But I'm of the top two and my father's gettin old
I'm takin love to a brand new height
And if lovin' girls is wrong I don't want to be right
'Cause my man Babyface said that it's no crime
And of course I'll work Diana Ross overtime
You know why?
'Cause I can do it right [x4]
Yes I can!
If I was on the movies I'd frame Roger Rabbit
Play Spike Lee with Jessica, because she's gotta have it
But I'm not an actor, I'm just a mack
That charms girls as I whisper sweet nothings to attract her
And bring about that feelin of passion
To have her on my body like some modern day fashion
Layin next to me, in pure ecstasy
You're like a door, and you know that sex the key!
So send your man to the lost-and-found
I'm bringin' somethin' that's world-renowned
In other words - good lovin that's major!
I got girls in more areas than a SkyPager
Runnin around sayin, "Please me, please me, please me"
That's why I say "It Ain't Easy"
But I've been able to maintain my status
With ladies mackin without no ifs ands or maybes
And other players, just can't understand it
And couldn't keep they girls, even if they were branded
I always end up with them on my shelf
<Smooch sound>
I gotta jump back and kiss myself!!
You know why?
'Cause I can do it right [x4]
Yes I can!

Dylan:
“I married Isis on the 6th day of May,
But I could not hold on to her very long,
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away,
For that wild unknown country where I could not go wrong”


Jackson Brown:
“Don’t remind me of my failures,
I have not forgotten them.”

I've always thought Sympathy for the Devil was pretty clever. Some Lyrics:

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long years
Stole million man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

Just so freakin' classic.

Now they knew not his name and he knew not their faces
And he knew not the how nor the reason for why
You could ever wake up and wanna keep on livin'
In a place where a friend is such a hard thing to find
And for everyone you meet there's a whole mess of people
Tryin' like hell to pull you on down
To the level they're on and the trouble they're tendin'
In the mess that they've made, in the gutter they found

I love this one from : ICP - The Raven's Mirror

<Shaggy 2Dope's 1st verse after the chorus>

How can I stop myself from murdering your neck?
Methadone and Prozac only keep me in check.
As soon as it's gone, I'm gonna KILL!
And that was my last refill, God damnit!

I drink Lithium and I don't even know what it is
Only reason why you diss me is cause you want a sip!
Everytime I drink it, I piss out a laser
And cut holes in the wall with my.. D!CK phaser!

I'mma do time I assume
I b!tch smacked the judge right out his own court room
Then I took the bench, and sentenced myself...
To Eternal happiness and Good Health! Motherfvcker!

I represent the Hatchet!
I see your eyeball lookin' at me. I'mma snatch it
And throw it to the garbage can down the hall
Then kick you in your a$$ as you search and crawl for it!



NOTE: and in his delivery he really sells that 3rd line down! So you really feel it!
And the imagery in Violent J's 2nd verse is very intriguing how he paints the picture.

NSFW and super high energy track!

Well... the original post was Pink Floyd. So I thought I’d include the song that courses through my head when humping up a good elevation change with a pack.



You say the hill's too steep to climb
Chiding
You say you'd like to see me try
Climbing
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb the hill in my own way
Just wait a while for the right day
And as I rise above the treeline and the clouds
I look down hearing the sound of the things you said today

See, the ways of this world will just bring you to tears
Keep the Lord in your heart, and you'll have nothin' to fear
Live the best that you can and don't lie and don't steal
Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

Tyler Chlilders

Love these lyrics. I guess maybe I hear all the people who were an influence on my life echoing in them. If a few more people would simply live by those few words this country would be in a much better place.
