I'm too sexy for my cat too sexy for my cat
Poor pussy poor pussy cat

Love's going to leave me

Billy Idol Rock The Cradle Of love

Cause love cutts a million ways
Shakes the devil when he missbehaves
I ain’t nobody’s fool
Come on shake it up
Whatever I do

Rock the cradle of love

warhol says, "your time is up".

Rebel Yell~ Billy Idol ( with great fretwork by Steve Stevens)


Last night a little dancer
Came dancin’ to my door
Last night a little angel
Came pumping on the floor
She said a come baby
I’ve got a license for love
And if it expires
Pray help from above
Because

In the midnight hour
She cried more, more, more
With a rebel yell
She cried more, more, more
Owww
In the midnight hour, babe
More, more, more
With a rebel yell
More, more, more
More, more, more

Ticking away, the moments that make up a dull day.
You fritter and waste your hours in an offhand way.
But you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
Then one day you find, ten years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

Maybe not an exact quote, but close enuff.

yes more please

i keep hitting enter to post like this is chat lol

Robert Cray Smokin' Gun

I'm standing here bewildered, I can't remember just what I've done
I can hear the sirens whining, my eyes blinded by the sun
I know that I should be running, my heart's beating just like a drum
now they've knocked me down and takin it, a still hot and smokin gun

Freak it the whole damn song is excellent ------>

And you run and run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking

And racing around to come up behind you again

The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death


Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to naught or a half page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in a quiet desperation is the English way

The time is gone the song is over, thought i'd something more to say

Aerosmith Walk On Water

I never seen a smile that looked so sad
’cause you make me feel so good ’cause you’re so bad
Hey little darlin’
Your love is legendary
Love’s four letters
Ain’t in my dictionary
’scuse my position
But it ain’t missionary
Yeah, but I want to
Walk on the water with you

@@@@@ Cool But You Need To Include Song Title And Artist @@@@@

Good times and riches and son of a bitches I've seen more than I can recall

The first two are from Time by Pink Floyd
The other is "Changes in Lattitudes" by Jimmy Buffet

post artist/title please.....

Jimmy Buffett
He Went To Paris
He went to Paris looking for answersTo questions that bothered him soHe was impressive, young and aggressiveSaving the world on his ownBut the warm summer breezes, those french wines and cheesesPut his ambitions at bayThe summers and winters scattered like splintersAnd four or five years slipped awaySo he went to England, played the pianoAnd married an actress named KimThey had a fine life, she was a good wifeAnd bore him a young son named JimAnd all of the answers to all of the questionsHe locked in his attic one dayHe liked the quiet, clean country livingAnd twenty more years slipped awayBut the war took his baby, the bombs killed his ladyAnd left him with only one eyeHis body was battered, his whole world was shatteredAnd all he could do was just cryThe tears were a falling, and he was recallingThe answers he never foundSo he hopped on a freighter, sailed across the oceanAnd left England without a soundNow he lives in the islands, fishing the pylonsAnd drinks his green label each dayWriting his memoirs, losing his hearingAnd he don't care what most people sayThrough eighty-six years of perpetual motionIf he likes you he'll smile and he'll sayJimmy some of it's magic and some of it's tragicBut I had a good life all the wayAnd he went to to Paris, looking for answersTo questions that bothered him so

I guess most of my life philosophy can be found in Pink Floyd and Jimmy Buffet lyrics.

Sorry if I post too much, I love lyrics, the beat or whatever is secondary, except while I'm liftin.

hey thats what this thread is for n i'm gonna post the shit out of it feel free.

Jimmy Buffett
Why Don't We Get Drunk (And Screw)
I really do appreciate the fact you're sittin' here.
Your voice sounds so wonderful But yer face don't look too clear.
So bar maid bring a pitcher, another round o' brew Honey, why don't we get drunk and screw.
Why don't we get drunk and screw I just bought a water bed, it's filled up for me and you.

What It Takes
Aerosmith

Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made
When you don’t look back I guess
The feelings start to fade away
I used to feel your fire
But now it’s cold inside
And you’re back on the street
Like you didn’t miss a beat, yeah

(corus)
Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pain’s supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep
In the night, withouth thinkin’ you lost
Everything that was good in your life
To the toss of a dice
Tell me what it takes to let you go

Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going

Bruce - Hungry Heart

Aerosmith Cryin


There was a time
When I was so broken hearted
Love wasn’t much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
’cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin’ kind
Now listen
All I want is someone I can’t resist
I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed

Chris Isaac ~ WICKED GAME


The world was on fire no-one could save me but you

Strange what desire will make foolish people do

I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you

I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No, I don't wanna fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart)

No, I don't wanna fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart)

With you

What a wicked game to play to make me feel this way

What a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you

What a wicked thing to say you never felt this way

What a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you

No, I don't wanna fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart)

MY HOMETOWN + Bruce

I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand
Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man
I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town
He'd tousle my hair and say son take a good look around this is your hometown
This is your hometown
In `65 tension was running high at my high school
There was a lot of fights between the black and white
There was nothing you could do
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night in the back seat there was a gun
Words were passed in a shotgun blast
Troubled times had come to my hometown
Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores
Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more
They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks
Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back to your hometown
Your hometown
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed
talking about getting out
Packing up our bags maybe heading south
I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said son take a good look around
This is your hometown

Garth Brooks
The Dance

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have chanced it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance

Hendrix Little Wing

Well she’s walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that’s running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That’s all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind.

When I’m sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It’s alright she says it’s alright
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.

Fly on little wing,
Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing
