Show him that you care, just for him.
Do the things that he likes to do
Do the things that he likes to do
Wear your hair just for him
Wear your hair just for him
Because...
Because...
You wont get him, thinking and a-praying

She was a really cool kisser and she wasn’t all that strict of a Christian.
She was a damn good dancer but she wasn’t all that great of a girlfriend.
She likes the warm feeling but she’s tired of all the dehydration.
Most nights are crystal clear
But tonight it’s like it’s stuck between stations

-Craig Finn, The Hold Steady

Another Hold Steady gem:

Lost in fog and love and faith and fear
I've had kisses that make Judas seem sincere

Let's have some fun, this beat is sick
I wanna take a ride on your disco stick
Don't think too much, just bust that kick
I wanna take a ride on your disco stick

I'll sleep when I'm dead...

Which is the theme song to my parenting of little kids years.

"She's a summer love in the spring, fall and winter. She can make happy any man alive."

If most don't know the artist, I might just cry.

"Who needs sleep?
(well you're never gonna get it)
Who needs sleep?
(tell me what's that for)
Who needs sleep?
(be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War)"

- Barenaked Ladies "Who needs Sleep"

Which just like prior poster, was running through my head during the sleep-deprived early childhood years...

Some of the lyrics from "Fairytale of New York" (The Pogues)

If you don't know the song, it's a man and a woman remembering happier times as they sing insults to each other.

They got cars big as bars
They got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It´s no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of new york city
When the band finished playing they yelled out for more
Sinatra was swinging all the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner then danced through the night.

You´re a bum you´re a punk
You´re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag you maggot you cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse I pray god it´s our last.

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me when I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can´t make it out alone
I´ve built my dreams around you

[Anonymous]

How the faces of love change with the turning of pages
And I have changed
Oh, but you, you remain ageless

Stevie Nicks, Crystal

You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world
All the love in your heart

People gonna treat you better
You're gonna find,
Yes you will,
That you're beautiful
As you feel

(Carole King)

[Anonymous]

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

(Steppenwolf)

And to 22:56, Damn right, we're old! But our music was better.

No. I saw (or tried to see) Shane MacGowan performing on his own once at the Black Cat. It was a terrible. He was so drunk he couldn't stand up or sing. He came out and mumbled a few lines, kept falling over. They carried him backstage and after 45 minutes of waiting we left. Hope he's doing better now.
