So, like, almost every post to this thread has been, like, song lyrics, right dude? So then, like, doesn't that make it a music thread? So then someone comes along and says "No way, dude! This is a BS thread!" and sends it down to BS-land. Wow! Bummer, dude! Betcha whoever did it voted fer Bush.

I'm standin' out in the rain
Tied to this dirty old ball and chain
Oh, dear mother, I'll come home some old day
Some sweet day they'll turn me loose
From this dirty old calaboose
Oh, dear mother, I'll come home some old day

The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
The silver saxaphones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed out horns
Blow in my face with scorn
But its not that way
I wasn't born to lose you.........





Ahh subtlety!

your momma and your poppa
your sisters and your brothers
your aunt, your uncle, and a whole lotta others
they don't wanna see me with you
no they don't wanna see me with you
if they'd mind their own business
then I'd stick with mine
and everything will work out fine.

(Actually, when I sang "Tom Thumb's Blues" on the streets of San Francisco years ago, I used to alter that lyric to refer to my wintertime home, where I'd be heading at summer's end -- "I'm going back to New Orleans, I do believe I've had enough." It *almost* scans...)

Sorry for interrupting the string of lyric fragments.

This is fun, isn't it? What the hell possessed you to start this, Chris? Did you have any idea what would develop?
