    and now it's all over
    the birds can nest again
    i'll only snow when the 
    sun comes out
    i'll shine only when it 
    starts to rain
    and if you want a drink
    just squeeze my hand
    and wine will flow into
    the land and feed my lambs
    for i am a mirror
    i can reflect the moon
    i will write songs for you
    i'll be your silver spoon
    i'm sorry i took your time
    i am the poem that doesn't rhyme

81.10CAVLRY::BUCKOh no...Let me go!Sun Feb 02 1992 23:3117
    I feel the swaying ocean
    from the bottom of the sea
    waves above crashing over me
    
    and every now and then
    I start feeling small
    started strong, just to trip and fall
    
    one day when you need a friend
    people come and go
    sometimes you fly so high
    just to sink so low
    
    but if things gets heavy 
    I won't let you down
    when you're lead astray
    I'll always be around..
81.12while my code is compiling....DPE::STARRRed Wine and WhiskeyThu Apr 30 1992 19:0444
A few selected passages from The Dan Reed Network's album 'The Heat'. Some
very cool lyrics throughout this album.....  alan


This won't hurt much, he lied
The tears ran down her soul that night
Her innocence cried, oh cried
Staring down the barrel of a selfish man
Loved her just once, had a sudden change of plans
		- "Blame It On The Moon"

Who needs love, when it feels so good?
		- "Blame It On The Moon"

I care about you
You don't even give a sh*t about me
That's what love is
		- "Mix It Up"

They don't care about your hair
Issue's dead, over and out
Vanity s*cks, I said
		- "Mix It Up"

One thing's for certain, it's curtains
If we keep flirting with fate and hurting with hate
Time to grow up
		- "Mix It Up"

Drugs! That's the life of glamour
But it comes crashing on your head, like a ball-pean hammer
Get rich quick sure, but end up dead on a curb
Or be alive like a ghost in a drive-by suburb
		- "Mix It Up"

I like my body
When it's next to yours
And I love my kisses
When they're mixed with yours
		- "The Heat"

Military spending, and children don't eat
I can't understand, it makes no sense to me
		- "Chill Out"

    "I`ve got myself a nightmare,
     she looks like a wet dream,
     i`ve got myself a cadillac,

    But no forgetting the classic AC/DC ditty...
    
    'Some balls are held for charity,
     and some for fancy dress
     but when they're held for pleasure
     they're the balls that I like best.
    
     My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right
     its my belief that my big balls should be held every night.'

    Or perhaps
    
    "She had the face of an angel,smiling with sin,
     the body of Venus de Milo with arms.
     I wuz feeling the danger,stroking her skin,
     like the thunder and lighting in storms.
     She wasn`t the first,she wasn`t the last,
     it wasn`t like she didn`t care,
     she wanted it hard,she wanted it fast,
     she liked it done medium rare".

    Aye,you`re right there.
    
    It is of course from "We are the road crew" by Motorhead.
    
    "Another town i`ve left behind,
     another drink,completely blind,
     another hotel i can`t find.

    I got my own way to go and now I want to take your minds
    I believe if you could see the blood between the lines
    I believe that you could be a better kind
    Please lead the way so the unborn can play
    On some greener hill
    Laugh as the flames eat their burning remains
    Fools die laughing still

     get yourself some wealth distribution.

     but he`s not listening anyway.
     they`re too busy,fighting,

     with what there is to be learned.
     They wear Burton Suits,

    Nay! 'Tis "Killers" by Iron Maiden surely?
    
    Here's some lyrics in part; simple rhymes more than anything
    else, from a chap who wrote some of the best hard rock lyrics
    of his era. These are'nt his best, but they're catchy none the 
    less. 
    
    "People that despise you will analyse and criticise you
     They'll tell lies, scandalize untill they realise you
     Were somebody they should have apologised to
     Don't let these people compromise you...be wise to.
    
     You.......can do anything you wanna do
     It's not wrong what I'm singing it's true
     You.......can do anything you wanna do
     Do what you want!

81.32"Long Gone" - UFOYUPPY::OHAGANBGive my regards to Sgt FuryThu Jun 25 1992 09:3057
Skulking in the mean streets
Whispering in the halls,
Red light bandits on the corner 
Give no quarter calls,
Infectious garbabge fills the streets 
And in their eyes you know, 
A thin blue line bends and breaks
To stop the overflow.

Fan the flames of the city's heat
In dark corners hiding their deceit,
Desperation as the trouble flares
Alarm guns ring, running scared.....

And you're long gone 
Down in this hell
Long gone 
Down in this Hell

But baby won't you hold me tight
Let your sulphurs fill my night
We've got a dream don't let it slip away,
And in your eyes I can see the fear
This time baby sheds a tear 
** can't make out this line **

I saw the stars come out tonight
So lonely and immune 
Summer rains kiss the streets
That bleed like open wounds
Patrol cars sweep the avenues 
Down on 48th
While faces in dark doorways 
Wait around to hate

Fan the flames of the city's heat
In dark corners hiding their deceit
Desperation as the trouble flares
Alarm guns ring, running scared.....

And you're long gone 
Down in this hell
Long gone
Down in this hell



The above has been recited from memory so by all accounts it's not gonna 
be spot on. UFO never seemed to publish lyric sheets with their albums
until "Making Contact." This IMHO is the best lyric written by Phil Mogg
ever ever ever. 

barry.

p.s. "Profession of Violence" has some brilliant lines too. Must dig
it out again.

    	Don't be afraid
    	Man is man-made

Crowd banter, Freddie Mercury from Queen's Live at Wembley '86:


Freddie:  You know something there's been a lot of rumors lately about a
	certain band called Queen and the rumors are that we're going to 
	split up.  What do you think?

crowd:  NO!

Freddie:  They're talking from here...

crowd:  Yeah!

Freddie:  My apologies, but I have to say what I want.  You know what I mean?
	So forget those rumors, we're going to stay together until we
	f---ing well die I'm sure.

	I keep wanting to leave, but they won't let me.  We're not bad for
	4 aging queens are we?  What do you think?

	This is a new song, "Who Wants to Live Forever"?

A horse is a horse,

And noone can talk to a horse of course
That is of course 
Unless the horse 
Is the famous Mr. Ed...
    
Go right to the source 
and ask the horse...

The end of the Civil war was near,
When quite accidentally
A hero who sneezed,
Abruptly seized retreat
And reversed it to victory.

His medal of honor pleased and thrilled
His proud little family group
But pinning it on some blood was spilled
And so it was planned he command F-Troop.

Where Indian (sic) fights
Were colorful sights
And nobody takes a lickin'
Where paleface and redskin (sic)
Both turn chicken.

When drilling and fighting get them down
They know their moral won't droop
As long as they all relax in town
Before they resume, with a bang and a boom
F-TROOP!!

Well, next thing ya know ol' Jed's a millionare.
Kin folks said, `Jed, move away from there.'
They said, `California is the place ya oughta be,'
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.
[spoken]...Hills that is.  Swimmin' pools.  Movie stars.

[a couple bars of the theme]

Well, now it's time to say good-bye to Jed and all his kin.
They would like to thank you all for kindly stoppin' in.
You're all invited back next week to this locality,
To have a heapin' helpin' of their hospitality.

Here we come, walkin' down the street
We get the funniest looks from everyone we meet
Hey hey, we're the Monkees, and people say we monkey around
But we're too busy singing to put anybody down

We go wherever we want to, do what we like to do
We don't have time to get restless, there's always something new

Hey hey, we're the Monkees, and people say we monkey around
But we're too busy singing to put anybody down

We're just tryin' to be friendly, come and watch us sing and play
'Cause we're the young generation, and we got something to say

Anytime or anywhere, just look over your shoulder
Guess who'll be standin' there

I know I'm just a fool who's willing
To sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see there's nothing else for me to do
I'm hopelessly de - vot   -   ed to you
But now
There's nowhere to hide since you pushed my love aside
I'm out of my head,  hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

My head is saying fool forget him
My heart is saying don't let go
Hold on till the end, and that's what I intend to do
Hopelessly devoted to you
But now

There's nowhere to hide since you pushed my love aside
I'm out of my head,  hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

   Summer lovin', had me a blast
   Summer lovin', happened so fast
   Met a girl, crazy for me
   Met a boy, cute as can be

   Summer days, drifting away
   But oh, oh, those summer nights, a well-a, well-a, well-a
   Uh, tell me more, tell me more, did you get very far?
   Tell me more, tell me more, like does he own a car?

She swam by me, she got a cramp
He ran by me, got my suit damp
Saved her life, she nearly drowned
He showed off, splashing around

Summer sun, something's begun
But oh, oh, those summer nights, a well-a, well-a, well-a

Uh, tell me more, tell me more, was it love at first sight?
Tell me more, tell me more, did she put up a fight?

Took her bowling in the arcade
We went strolling, drank lemonade
We made out under the dock
We stayed out till ten o'clock

   Summer fling don't mean a thing
   But oh, oh, those summer nights

   Tell me more, tell me more, like, you don't have to brag
   Tell me more, tell me more, 'cause he sounds like a drag
   (Shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop)

   He got friendly, holding my hand
   She got friendly, down on the sand
   He was sweet, just turned eighteen
   She was good, you know what I mean

   Summer heat, boy and girl meet
   Then oh, oh, those summer nights

   Tell me more, tell me more, how much dough did he spend?
   Tell me more, tell me more, could she get me a friend?

   It turned colder, that's where it ends
   So I told her we'd still be friends
   Then we made our true love vow
   Wonder what she's doing now

   Summer dreams, ripped at the seams
   But oh, those summer nights

Jitterbug into my brain
Goes a-bang-bang-bang till my feet do the same

But something's bugging you
Something ain't right   
My best friend told me what you did last night

Left me sleepin' in my bed
I was dreaming but I should have been with you instead

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
    
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not planning on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight

Been a whole lot happier without her face around

Nobody at the back door throwin' my laundry out

You do your brain surgery too Momma, wit yo monkey wrench

    Hey Dle, nice to have you back, NOT!
    
    from the still born cradle
    where the nations sleep
    to the halls of learning
    where the new gods meet
    no one knows the reason
    why the shadows swell
    but the distant ringing
    of the mission bells
    
    there is no heaven and there is no hell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    dead men have no tales to tell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    
    the bland lead the bland
    in a pale new world
    where dreams of democracy
    are now unfurled
    on the lips of infallicy
    a peace proclaimed 
    breath of revolution
    without change
    
    there is no heaven and there is no hell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    dead men have no tales to tell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    
    hear the words of the prophets
    see the men on stilts
    as they bow to the effigies
    that they have built
    once faith was a virtue
    now its use is denied
    and the bones bleach white
    under western skies
    
    there is no heaven and there is no hell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    dead men have no tales to tell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    there is no heaven and there is no hell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells
    we were there the day the red god fell
    but they still keep ringin' up the mission bells

   Let me tell you a story 'bout a hot rod race
   Them Fords and Lincolns was settin' the pace
   This story is true I'm here to say
   I was drivin' that Model A
    
   Got a Lincoln motor -- really souped up
   Model A body makes it look like a pup
   Got 8 cylinders, use 'em all
   Got overdrive, never stalls
    
   A four barrel carb and dual exhaust
   With four lovin' gears you can really get lost
   Got safety tubes; I ain't scared
   The brakes are good, tires fair
    
   Now I pulled outa San Pedro late one night
   The moon and stars were shinin' bright
   Drivin' up that grapevine hill
   Passin' cars like they was standin' still
    
   All of a sudden in a wink of an eye
   A Cadillac Sedan done passed me by
   I said boys there's a mark for me
   By then the tail-lights was all you could seeo
    
   Boys all ribbed me for bein' behind
   I thought I'd make my Lincoln unwind
   Took my foot off the gas and man alive
   Shifted on down into overdrive
    
   Wound it up to a hundred and ten
   Spedometer said that I hit top end
   My foot was glued like lead to the floor
   That's all there is and there ain't no more
    
   Everybody thought I'd lost my sense
   Telephone poles looked like a picket fence
   They said slow down I see spots
   Lines on the road just look like dots
    
   I took a corner, side-swiped a truck
   Crossed my fingers just for luck
   Fenders was clickin' on the guard rail posts
   The guy beside me was white as a ghost
    
   Smoke was comin' from outa the back
   And I started to gain on that Cadillac
   Knew I could catch him, I thought I could pass
   You know by then I'd be low on gas
    
   Flames was rollin' from outa the side
   You could feel the tension man what a ride
   Said look out I gotta liscense to fly
   The Caddy pulled over and let me by
    
   All of a sudden she started a knockin'
   Then down in the dip she starts a rockin'
   I looked in the mirror, red light was blinkin'
   The cops was after my Hot Rod Lincoln
    
   They arrested me and put me in jail
   And called my pappy to throw my bail
   He said son you're gonna drive me to drinkin'
   If you don't stop drivin' that Hot Rod Lincoln

81.165QRYCHE::STARRIs she ready to know my frustration?Thu Sep 16 1993 15:0833
A couple excerpts from one of the best songs to come out last year, imo....
(unjustly ignored by radio):

"Well you've been to the clubs and the discoteques
 Where they deal one another from the bottom of the deck of promises
 Where the cautious loners and emotional wrecks
 Do an acting stretch as a way to hide the obvious
 And the lights go down and they dance real close
 And for one brief instant they pretend they're safe and warm
 Then the beat gets louder and the mood is gone
 The darkness scatters as the lights flash on
 They hold one another just a little too long
 And they move apart, and then move on
 On to the street, on to the next
 Safe in the knowledge that they tried
 Faking the smile, hiding the pain
 Never satisfying the fire inside"

"Now the hour is late and he thinks you're asleep
 And you listen to him dress and you listen to him leave like you knew he would
 You hear his car pull away in the street
 Then you move to the door and you lock it
 Know he's gone for good
 The you walk to the window and you stare at the moon
 Riding high and lonesome through the starlit sky
 And it come to you how it all slips away
 Youth and beauty are gone one day
 No matter what you dream or feel or say
 It ends in dust and disarray"

"The Fire Inside" by Bob Seger.

I'm a woman's man, no time to talk.

I been kicked around since I was born.
But now it's alright, it's okay,
You may look the other way;
We can try to understand

Whether you're a brother 
Or whether you're another 
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin'
And everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah ha ha ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive,
Ah ha ha ha, stayin' alive.
 
Now, I get low and I get high,
If I can't get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes,
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.
And it's alright, it's okay,
We live to see another day.
We can try to understand

As my parting shot in this conference (I leave on Friday), the following 
seemed to have a certain ring to it in the current circumstances.

Picture the scene. Stuck in heavy traffic on the motorway. As usual, I 
have the stereo well cranked (speakers are about to bottom out at any moment).
What comes on?

	Joe Walsh "Rocky Mountain Way"

And this verse caught my attention.

	He's telling us this and telling us that
	Changing it day by day
	Says it doesn't matter
	Bases are loaded, the cases are packed
	Doing it play by play
	Time to change the batter

Ta-ra all and best of luck to everyone.

    I just have to share the following lyrical tidbit with you, as I
    *cannot* remove it from running through my brain today!
    
    
    		Likely or not, it's a dream that we keep,
    		and at odds with our senses, we'll find
    	 	that if faith is the answer, we've already reached it,
		and if spirit's a sign, then it's only a matter of time!

    Had wild dreams
    Walkin' the streets
    Hell, we were young
    Never looked back
    So we took our dreams
    Ran like hell
    Lived our youth 
    From the wishing well
    Me and the boys made a pact
    To live or die
    No turning back 
    Scarred for life
    All my best friends died
    I lost my mind
    It made me hate
    I can't escape, I can't escape...

    	When she got up to eat,

    	I was more than happy to,

    	I wanna hold her behind closed doors and more,
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me.
    
    	When she returned she said she was an actress.
    	She showed me an album of pictures of her opening,
    	which she'd been sittin' on.
    	She seemed as sweet as she could be,
    	but I could surely see,
    	she was the kind of girl
    	who stole men's hearts then 'recked 'em.
    
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me,

    	OK, I remembered the last verse.  And the guy's name is Tim
    	[something], and I 1st saw him do this song on STARCASE [any-
    	one remember that?] in the early 80's.
    
    	I was ridin' on a train to Austin Texas,
    	when a very lovely lady sat next to me.

    	I wanna hold her behind closed doors and more,
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me.
    
    	When she returned she said she was an actress.
    	She showed me an album of pictures of her opening,
    	which she'd been sittin' on.
    	She seemed as sweet as she could be,
    	but I could clearly see,
    	she was the kind of girl
    	who stole men's hearts then 'recked 'em.
    
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me,
    	I wanna whisper sweet nothings in her ear.
    	I wanna hold her behind closed doors and more,
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me.
    
    	I'll never forget that train ride down to Austin.
    	We shared our seat, and we shared our tales.
    	But as my heart tried to leave her behind,
    	regrets are all I'd find.
    	'Coz I hoped I'd get that girl in the end
    
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me,
    	I wanna whisper sweet nothings in her ear.
    	I wanna hold her behind closed doors and more,
    	I wanna kiss her but she won't let me.

    	Stopped into a music store in Westboro MA ["Beat'n Trax", I think]
    	and went through the "4 for $10" CD bin a couple weeks ago and
    	came out with 8 new CD's for 1/5 regular price.
    
    	One of them is a real gem from Skrapp Mettle called "Sensitive".
    	The title track starts out:
    
    	"You're so sensitive,
    	 I'm gonna slap you in the face when I meet you.
    	 You're so sensitive,
    	 I'm gonna tie you to a tree and beat you.
    	 You're so sensitive, sensitive ... now piss off!!"
    
    	The rest of the songs are just as meaningful and thought-provoking.

    	BTW, the guy who wrote the song in .242 is Tim Cavanaugh.  He

    	"Hello Bobby, my old friend,
    	 it's good to see you once again.
    	 How's your mother, how's your aunt,
    	 how's your father's skin diving suit?
    
    	 That's one of the lines I'm not real sure about."

    	Related to .239, there's a song called "How's Your Whole Family",
    	including:
    
    	"How's your whole, family,
    	 how's your whole, family,
    	 how's your whole, family,
    	 how is your whole, family.
    
    	 Suck on a stiff cocktail with me,
    	 suck on a stiff cocktail with me,
    	 suck on a stiff cocktail with me,
    	 suck on a stiff cocktail with me."
    
    
    	And there are a bunch of verses of similar innuendo.

    	"Now if you can only send a dollar or 2,
    	 there's not a hell of a lot I can offer for you.
    	 But if you want the key to Heaven's door,
    	 make out a check for $500 or more."

    -1,
    Sounds very similar to:
    
    'Send me money, send me green.
    Heaven you will meet.
    Make a contribution and you get the better seat.'

    Everyone in my band thought that "how's your whole.... family" parody
    was funny but me.   It sounds like something any 12-year-old could've
    written in about 10 minutes.
    
    The one *I* think was funny went something like this (with a country
    twang):
    
    	I wanna kiss her but... she won't let
    	I wanna whisper sweet nothing in her ear  (slur "her" into "ear")
    	I wanna stroke her behind... close doors and more
