I've got big balls
I've got big balls
They're such big balls
And they're dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
But we've got the biggest balls of them all

AC/DC; Big Balls

I'm a rolling thunder, a pouring rain
I'm comin' on like a hurricane
My lightning's flashing across the sky
You're only young but you're gonna die

AC/DC; Hell's Bell's

Back in the back of a cadillac
Number one with a bullet I'm a power pack
Yes I'm in a band
With a gang
They gotta catch me if they want me to hang
Cause I'm back on the track and I'm feeling the flack)
Nobody's gonna get me on another rack
So look at me now I'm just makin' my way
Don't try to push your luck just get out of my way

AC/DC; Back In Black

"The Queen & The Soldier" (Suzanne Vega)

The soldier came knocking upon the queen's door
He said, "I am not fighting for you any more"
The queen knew she'd seen his face someplace before
And slowly she let him inside.

He said, "I've watched your palace up here on the hill
And I've wondered who's the woman for whom we all kill
But I am leaving tomorrow and you can do what you will
Only first I am asking you why."

Down in the long narrow hall he was led
Into her rooms with her tapestries red
And she never once took the crown from her head
She asked him there to sit down.

He said, "I see you now, and you are so very young
But I've seen more battles lost than I have battles won
And I've got this intuition, says it's all for your fun
And now will you tell me why?"

The young queen, she fixed him with an arrogant eye
She said, "You won't understand, and you may as well not try"
But her face was a child's, and he thought she would cry
But she closed herself up like a fan.

And she said, "I've swallowed a secret burning thread
It cuts me inside, and often I've bled"
He laid his hand then on top of her head
And he bowed her down to the ground.

"Tell me how hungry are you? How weak you must feel
As you are living here alone, and you are never revealed
But I won't march again on your battlefield"
And he took her to the window to see.

And the sun, it was gold, though the sky, it was gray
And she wanted more than she ever could say
But she knew how it frightened her, and she turned away
And would not look at his face again.

And he said, "I want to live as an honest man
To get all I deserve and to give all I can
And to love a young woman who I don't understand
Your highness, your ways are very strange."

But the crown, it had fallen, and she thought she would break
And she stood there, ashamed of the way her heart ached
She took him to the doorstep and she asked him to wait
She would only be a moment inside.

Out in the distance her order was heard
And the soldier was killed, still waiting for her word
And while the queen went on strangling in the solitude she preferred
The battle continued on

Easy answer:

You know you could
I wish you would
Come pick me up
Take me out
Fuck me up
Steal my records
Screw all my friends behind my back
With a smile on your face
And then do it again
I wish you would

- Ryan Adams  "Come Pick Me Up" on the album "Heartbreaker." One of the best break-up albums ever recorded.

These days turned out nothing

Like I had planned

- Powderfinger

More Waterboys... Love Anyway

So you crashed the plane
And there’s hell to pay
I’m making it plain
I love you anyway

You made a fool
Out of me today
I’m breaking the rule
I love you anyway

You threw the blame
What a role to play!
My story’s the same
I love you anyway

You dealt the blow
And you burst the ball
I’m letting you know
I love you most of all

Magic we chase - only to find
It comes from a place higher than mind
Higher than dust, but only just
It hangs on the cusp

I can hear you scream
Like a branded slave
It’s only a dream
I love you anyway

You’ve got a war to wage
Chief to obey
Foe to engage
I love you anyway

You hunker down
Feeling small
Judging the clown
I love you most of all

I picture you with the eye of my mind
A portrait in blue, unravaged by time
Beauty undimmed and through your pale skin
The beauty within

So you beat the child
Sent him away
Beauty defiled
I love you anyway

You tricked the king
Cut him where he lay
Unthinkable thing
I love you anyway

You held the jewel
And you let it fall
Prince of a fool!
I love you most of all

Over the wind, under the hill
Wing upon wing, love over will
When the big me meets the big you
The things we will do!

I’ll make the time
If you name the day
Trouble or shine
I love you anyway

I think of you
As child of clay
Whatever you do
I love you anyway

"Hang it in my window, let it complicate my view, the separation, the glass of you."

I love all Indigo Girls music... The melodies, the guitars, everything.... I CRANK it up, and just sing sing sing in the car... Lyrics are quite cerebral... sometimes they make me CRY!

Another Indigo Girls Favorite:

Watershed:

Thought I knew my mind like the back of my hand,
The gold and the rainbow, but nothing panned out as I planned.
And they say only milk and honey's gonna make your soul satisfied!
Well I better learn how to swim
Cause the crossing is chilly and wide.
Twisted guardrail on the highway, broken glass on the cement
A ghost of someone's tragedy
How recklessly my time has been spent.
And they say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger!
Well I better learn how to starve the emptiness
And feed the hunger
Up on the watershed, standing at the fork in the road
You can stand there and agonize
Till your agony's your heaviest load.
You'll never fly as the crow flies, get used to a country mile.
When you're learning to face the path at your pace
Every choice is worth your while.
Well there's always retrospect to light a clearer path
Every five years or so I look back on my life
And I have a good laugh.
You start at the top, go full circle round
Catch a breeze, take a spill
But ending up where i started again makes me wanna stand still.
Stepping on a crack, breaking up and looking back
Every tree limb overhead just seems to sit and wait.
Until every step you take becomes a twist of fate.

For those of us tri-ing for weightloss.

Sung to the tune of REM's "Losing my religion"
(with apologies to Michael Stipe )

My gut is bigger
It's bigger than huge
And that is not me
The things that I have eaten
Are going to my thighs
Oh no I ate too much
I ate bad stuff

Is that me in the mirror
No more are my jeans tight
Losing my dimensions
Trying to keep away from food
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I ate too much
I think I ate bad stuff
I thought that I heard you snacking
I thought that I saw you cheat
I think you thought you ate just fine

Every workout
With every sweating hour I'm
Losing my obsession
Of thinking only about food
Like a cheeseburger with extra fries
Oh no I ate too much
I ate bad stuff

Consider this
Some folks ride as long as a century
Consider this
They run a race named for a Greek city
And
What if you went for a swim
I know that you won't drown
Now I ate too much
I thought that I heard you snacking
I thought that I saw you cheat
I think you thought you ate just fine

But that was just ice cream
That was just ice cream

"I park my car in handicap spaces
while handicap people make handicap faces,
I'm an asshole!"

- Denis Leary, Asshole

Funny to me because I have worked in the area of special needs for years and sometimes you need an asshole to make you smile!

Best film for this - Something about Mary, the scene with Matt Dillon at the driving range talking about his work with people with special needs, again sometimes you need an asshole to make you smile.

I feel like racing the wind
I feel like I'm flying
I feel that the people that surround me have all been blinded
I think I'll reach down in my soul and pull up what's hiding
It's these things inside of me
I share them with you.....

I feel like screaming at the world
I know its a game

On a long and lonesome highway
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine
moanin' out its one-note song
You can think about the woman
or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
you just wish the trip was through

So here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
And here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
