Lately, this one can’t escape my head. Brings a smile to my face. 🙂
What can I say about Claudette?
Ain’t seen her since January,
She could be respectably married or
running a whorehouse in Buenas Aires– Bob Dylan, “The Groom’s Still Waiting at the Altar”
Good ol’ Bob. What are personal faves out in LuLand?
One more, just because it’s Thursday…
When I was a kid I saw a light,
Floating high above the trees one nightThought it was an alien,
Turned out to be just God– Built to Spill, “Goin’ Against Your Mind”
In your endless summer night
I’ll be on the other side
When you’re beautiful and dying all the world that you’ve denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes and really sleep tonight,
When the glitter fades in morning
Turn away and you will find my empty eyes
Your beauty blinds.@All I Ask wrote:
All I ask,
Don’t tell anybody the secrets,
Don’t tell anybody the secrets I told you.Yeah, that one gets me, too. 🙂
I love Lucinda, but here’s a fav lyric from another great songwriter…Ray Davies.
“We drank champaign and danced all night
Under electric candlelight.”I would’ve killed myself but it made no sense
Commitin’ suicide in self defense
But I lost everything I brought her
When she said babe you’re just a wave you’re not the waterButch Hancock
Now some of you would live through me
Lock me up and throw away the key
Or just find a place to hide away
Hope that I’ll just go away
I feel alright – I feel alright tonightSteve Earle
“Oh,” she said: “Casey, it’s been so long since I’ve seen you.
“Here,” she said: “just a kiss to make a body smile.
“See,” she said: “I’ve put on new stockings just to please you.
“Lord,” she said. “Casey, can you only stay a while.”Kris Kristofferson
How to fight loneliness
Smile all the time
Shine you teeth til meaningless
Sharpen them with liesJeff Tweedy
I just love,
“You’re wanted by the police and my wife thinks your dead.”
Just one of Junior Brown’s many inspirational songs.
well i looked my demons in the eyes,
laid bare my chest, said do your best, destroy me.
you see, i’ve been to hell and back so many times,
i must admit you kind of bore me.Ray Lamontagne-Til the Sun Turns Black
Stone cold Bon Scott classic lyrics…
“So spin that wheel,
Cut that pack,
And roll those loaded dice.
Bring on the dancing girls,
And put the champagne on ice.
I’m going in….
to Sin City”AC/DC – Sin City
I went stumbling through the fog trying to find a reason for the things I told her
She woke up sunny side down and I was still thinking I was too proud to flip her over
Between the champagne hand jobs and the kissing ass by everyone involved
Cocaine rich comes quick and that’s why the small dicks have it allDrive By Truckers
(I just love the “She woke up sunny side down” bit..)
