So excuse me forgetting but these things I do You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

I am man who drives a local bus I take miners to work, but the pits all closed today It's easy to see that you are one of us Ain't it funny how we all seem to look the same? I'm getting put down I'm getting pushed 'round I'm being beaten every day My life's fading But things are changing I'm not gonna sit and weep again

Woke up, fell out of bed Dragged a comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a cup And looking up I noticed I was late Found my coat and grabbed my hat Made the bus in seconds flat Found my way upstairs and had a smoke Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

I told your mama that you'd be in by ten Well Susie baby looks like we goofed again Wake up little Susie Wake up little Susie We gotta go home

A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life Somewhere a queen is weeping Somewhere a king has no wife And the wind, it cries Mary

I have no problem with paper in general. I still use paper too, but there's no need for a 12-page booklet from the insurance company every time I go to a doctor. Ultimately, I pay for that paper through my premiums.

I think they're invested in the paper industry. Last week I got a letter explaining how much my insurance would cover for my recent visit to the eye doctor. That was one sheet of paper to explain the benefit and a twelve-page booklet outlining the grievance procedure if I wanted to complain. Nowhere is there any option for me to get this information electronically. I can't imagine why the cost of health insurance is so high.

This thread started out as a nice Mother's Day post. You guys who turned it into a fight: don't make me call your mothers.

I spent a little time on the mountain, I spent a little time on the hill, I heard some say "Better run away", Others say "Better stand still". Now I don't know, but I been told It's hard to run with the weight of gold, Other hand I have heard it said, It's just as hard with the weight of lead.

Come on its such a joy Come on its such a joy Come on let's take it easy Come on let's take it easy Take it easy Take it easy Everybody's got something to hide except for me and my monkey

I'll start the GoFundMe campaign...

The decade ain't over yet.

Hydrogen and helium are the two most abundant elements in the universe; unfortunately, most of it is locked up in stars. Although I did hear of an engineering school dropout who devised a plan to mine the sun at night.

Smokescreen. ?

Standin' on a corner Suitcase in my hand Jack's in his corset, Jane is in her vest and me I'm in a rock 'n' roll band. Huh. Riding a Stutz Bear Cat, Jim ya know, those were different times all the poets studied rules of verse and those ladies they rolled their eyes Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane

When I jumped off, I had a bucket full of thoughts When I first jumped off, I held that bucket in my hand Ideas that would take me all around the world I stood and watched the smoke behind the mountain curl It took me a long time to get back on the train

I like to reggae But you dance too fast for me. I'd like to make love to you So you can make me scream. Boogie on reggae woman. What is wrong with me? Boogie on reggae woman. Baby, can't you see?

The money's lying on the floor She looks at me, shakes her head, and sighs. Out of time, out the door Red light shining in my eyes. But was I alright? Did I take you to the height of ecstasy? Was I alright? Did a shadow of emotion cross your face Or was it just another trick of the light?

I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees Down to the crossroads, I fell down on my knees Asked the Lord for mercy, "Save me if you please"

Poor boy If that's the way it's gonna be Poor boy It's you for you and me for me Poor boy I've tried all I can, understanding all the fools and all their money, When half of what they've got, you know they never will use, Enough to get by, suits me fine, I don't care if they think I'm funny. I'm never gonna change my point of view, Don't mind the rain, don't mind snow, don't mind nothing, if I know You will be right here with me, all the way.

I'll take artificial intelligence over genuine stupidity any day.

Woke up this morning, smile with the rising sun Three little birds, pitched by my doorstep Singing sweet songs, melodies pure and true Singing, "This is my message to you."

The place is really jumping to the Hiwatt amps 'Til a twenty-inch cymbal fell and cut the lamps In the blackout they danced right into the aisle And as the doors fly open even the promoter smiles Someone takes his pants off and the rafters knock Rock is dead they say Long live rock

Is that rigor mortis or is he just enjoying the strippers?

I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks So she could her my man a whalin' sax I must admit they have a rockin' band Man they were goin' like a hurricane That's why I go for that rock 'n' roll music Any old way you choose it It's got a back beat, you can't lose it Any old time you use it It's gotta be rock - roll music If you wanna dance with me
