| I hear that song and think of that show Tour of Duty that used it for the theme song. Spent the day at a conference talking about helping veterans. Chatted with feds who said the newbie members of Congress are totally clueless and that things are so bizarre no one can predict what will happen with anything. Listened to vets and active duty military talk about their predicament and strangely they are more upbeat, positive and optimistic than the feds who are running our world. I see a red door and I want to paint it black. |

I laid a divorcee in new york city,
I had to put up some kind of a fight. The lady then she covered me with roses, She blew my nose and then she blew my mind. |
I would hit a "like" button if available. I had goose bumps reading this thread. I am 39. If you asked me about the Stones, I would say I was a fan but don't listen to their music much. But reading all of these lyrics, and having the music be an inner soundtrack in my head all day was something. Makes me want to call my college roomate, invite her over, and dance to Honkey Tonk Woman. |

Things are different today
I hear every mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down. |
I made an instant cake, and defrosted a frozen steak this week. I could use a little yellow pill. |

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black I see a red door and I want it painted black No colors anymore I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head until my darkness goes Hmm, hmm, hmm... I wanna see it painted black, painted black Black as night, black as coal I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black Yeah More lyrics: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/r/rolling+stones/#share |

When the wind blows and the rain feels cold
With a head full of snow With a head full of snow In the window there's a face you know Don't the nights pass slow Don't the nights pass slow The sound of strangers sending nothing to my mind Just another mad mad day on the road I am just living to be lying by your side But Im just about a moonlight mile on down the road Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes Gonna warm my bones Gonna warm my bones I got silence on my radio Let the air waves flow Let the air waves flow Oh Im sleeping under strange strange skies Just another mad mad day on the road My dreams is fading down the railway line Im just about a moonlight mile down the road Im hiding sister and Im dreaming Im riding down your moonlight mile Im hiding baby and Im dreaming Im riding down your moonlight mile Im riding down you moonlight mile Let it go now, come on up babe Yeah, let it go now Yeah, flow now baby Yeah move on now yeah Yeah, Im coming home Cause, Im just about a moonlight mile on down the road Down the road, down the road |

It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away Rape, murder! It's just a shot away It's just a shot away The floods is threat'ning My very life today Gimme, gimme shelter Or I'm gonna fade away War, children, it's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away It's just a shot away I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away Kiss away, kiss away ...Same as it ever was...same as it ever was... Uh oh, David Byrne's trying to break in here... |

I can't resist, the lyrics are too righteous!
And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack And you may find yourself in another part of the world And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself-Well...How did I get here? Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground. And you may ask yourself How do I work this? And you may ask yourself Where is that large automobile? And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful house! And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful wife! Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground. Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Water dissolving...and water removing There is water at the bottom of the ocean Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean! Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/in the silent water Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground. Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground. And you may ask yourself What is that beautiful house? And you may ask yourself Where does that highway go? And you may ask yourself Am I right?...Am I wrong? And you may tell yourself MY GOD!...WHAT HAVE I DONE? Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/in the silent water Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground. Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground. Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... |
Wow . . . thanks for thank clarification about Paint it Black. I've been under that misconception for decades. I've also heard Keith Richards say that Jumping Jack Flash was about the gardner, but I don't believe him. I think they were just as disgusting as we were in college. I think it's about lighting lighting your farts on fire. Go ahead flame away at me . . . literally flame away at me. I'm not lying, you can light your farts on fire. |

Well some days I feel like....
I...can't...get...no Sa...tis...fac...tion |
| hey,hey,hey...that's what I say... |
| The GnR version of Sympathy ain't bad. How about Devos' cover of Satisfaction? What Stone's covers do you like most? |
I'm 39 years old and grew up listening to the stones, thanks in part two having two older sisters. But I have to admit that when I saw this thread title, my first thought was that someone here had a bad experience at Elizabeth Arden Red Door salon and was complaining about it.
