On the Road Again


On the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been
Seein' things that I may never see again
I can't wait to get on the road again

On the road again
Like a band of gypsies
We go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way
And our way
Is on the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again

Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no Peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

I DON'T WORK FOR A LIVING (Collected Australian Version)

based on a song by James Mullen and Edward Leroy Freeman

Chorus
I don't work for a living I get along alright without
I don't toil all day, I suppose it's because I'm not built that way
Some people work for love and say it's all sunshine and gain,
But if I can't get sunshine without any work I think I'll stay out in the rain!

They say we're all born for a purpose, they say we're all born with a gift
Some people like to be famous, I suppose it's by hard work and thrift.
There's lots of us fighting and striving, for seat down in the old A.C.T.
But if I've got a seat in my trousers, and a missus to work for me….

Chorus

Now give me a nail and a hammer, and a picture to hang on the wall
And give me a strong step ladder, you know that I might fall,
And give me a couple of waiters, and a barrel of good old Bass Ale
And I bet you I'll hang up that picture, if somebody drives the nail.

Last Chorus
I don't work for a living I get along alright without
I live peacefully, labour disputes never worry me.
I love my family and the missus, o how I adore.
I decided to make them all happy, that's why I never go home anymore!

Oh! How I Hate to Get Up In The Morning

Words and music by Irving Berlin

All Rights Reserved

"Oh! How I Hate To Get Up In The Morning,
Oh! How I'd love to remain in bed
For the hardest blow of all is to hear the bugler call:
'You've got to get up, you've got to get up,
You've got to get up this morning!'"

Someday I'm going to murder the bugler
Someday they're going to find him dead
I'll amputate his reveille and stomp upon it heavily
And spend the rest of my life in bed!

A bugler in the army is the luckiest of men
He wakes the boys at five and then goes back to bed again
He doesn't have to blow again until the afternoon
If ev'rything goes well with me I'll be a bugler soon!

"Oh! How I Hate To Get Up In The Morning,
Oh! How I'd love to remain in bed
For the hardest blow of all is to hear the bugler call:
'You've got to get up, you've got to get up,
You've got to get up this morning!'"

Oh, boy! The minute the battle is over
Oh, boy! The minute the foe is dead
I'll put my uniform away and move to Philadelphia
And spend the rest of my life in bed!

You must differentiate between time and duration, and when you can do that you can understand the concept of negative zero. You will also hear the sound of one hand clapping and know if a tree that falls in the forest when there is no one around makes any sound.

"The square root of negative zero."

1. Zero is neither negative nor positive.
2. the square root of zero is zero.

Next you want to use noon in the afternoon or midnight in the morning, I guess.

Away unto the West'ard
There's a place a man can go
Where the plumbing's always indoors
And you don't freeze in the snow.

And I'll haul up my pants
Where your stream freezes solid
Bide away the days
Waiting for some warmer days.

"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect,but actually,from a non-linear,non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff"
