Which song describes you the best?

For the moment, "I think I'm paranoid" by Garbage fits the bill...

"We're not gonna take it" by Twisted Sister ...

And "Oh Canada," which I'm practicing just in case.

"Liar" by the Rollins Band...

A-hahahahaha! SUCKER!

(submitted because it's the song I'm listening to right now)

Mister, I ain't got nothing
But it's more than you got

"Chains no longer bind me
Not the shackles at my feet
Outside are the prisoners
Inside the free"

I mean to bug you.

:?:

Listen to that song again...

I was thinking the studio version from the Sun City album ... sheesh.

Fleetwood Mac- One of dubya's favorite bands. Coincidence?

what are you implying!

:D

Because my life seems to be about perseverance lately-
Especially love the very last verse

Get Behind the Mule
(Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan)

Molly be damned smote Jimmy the Harp
With a horrid little pistol and a lariat
She's goin to the bottom
And she's goin down the drain
Said she wasn't big enough to carry it

She got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
She got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
She got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
She got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow

Choppity chop goes the axe in the woods
You gotta meet me by the fall down tree
Shovel of dirt upon a coffin lid
And I know they'll come lookin for me boys
And I know they'll come a-lookin for me

Got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
Got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
Got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow
Got to get behind the Mule
In the morning and plow

Big Jack Earl was 8'1
He stood in the road and he cried
He couldn't make her love him
Couldn't make her stay
But tell the good Lord that he tried
(Chorus)
Dusty trail from Atchison to Placerville
On the wreck of the Weaverville stage
Beaula fired on Beatty for a lemonade
I was stirring my brandy with a nail boys
Stirring my brandy with a nail
(Chorus)
Well the rampaging sons of the widow James
Jack the cutter and the pock marked kid
Had to stand naked at the bottom
Of the cross
And tell the good lord what they did
Tell the good lord what they did
(Chorus)
Punctuated birds on the power line
In a Studebaker with the Birdie Joe Joaks
I'm diggin all the way to China
With a silver spoon
While the hangman fumbles with the noose, boys
The hangman fumbles with the noose
(Chorus)

Pin your ear to the wisdom post
Pin your eye to the line
Never let the weeds get higher
Than the garden
Always keep a sapphire in your mind
Always keep a diamond in your mind

Another Waits/Brennan collaboration I love is "Innocent when You Dream"

The bats are in the belfry,
The dew is on the moor.
Where are the arms that held me
And pledged her love before?
And pledged her love before?

It's such a sad old feeling,
All of the fields are soft and green.
It's memories that I'm stealing,
But you're innocent when you dream,
When you dream.
You're innocent when you dream.

Running through the graveyard,
We laughed my friends and I.
We swore we'd be together
Until the day we died,
Until the day we died.

It's such a sad old feeling,
All of the fields are soft and green.
It's memories that I'm stealing,
But you're innocent when you dream,
When you dream.
You're innocent when you dream.

I made a golden promise
That we would never part.
I gave my love a locket,
And then I broke her heart.
And then I broke her heart.

It's such a sad old feeling,
All of the fields are soft and green.
It's memories that I'm stealing,
But you're innocent when you dream,
When you dream.
You're innocent when you dream.



Of course, the T.W. song that best describes ME is "Pasties and a G-String." :evilgrin:

but I opted for the "serious, thoughtful" answer to this post:-)

...so, was that your "delete" post? :evilgrin:

I thought it was stupid, but I changed it back anyways.

I'm a dummy:crazy:

You're just indecisive.

And a dummy, sometimes. But that's okay.

I have heard that song and I love it, but I don't think I own the recording it's on.

Not talking to YOU, of course, HypnoToad. You rock.

But people in general? Yeah. "I'm Sick of You."

by Fleetwood Mac

Quite possibly my favorite Fleetwood Mac song of all time.

Lindsey rules!

"I fight authority but authority always wins."

College-Age 28 - Blister in the Sun - Violent Femmes

Age 28-Marriage - Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day - J. Tull

Marriage - Fatherhood - I Feel Fine - The Beatles

Fatherhood - Present - I Walk The Line - Johnny Cash



Of Course, these also work well:

I Shall Be Free Number 10 - Bob Dylan
Scarlet Begonias - Grateful Dead
1983, A Merman I Should Be - Jimi Hendrix
Desolation Row - Bob Dylan
No Rain - Blind Melon
Tangled Up In Blue - Bob Dylan

I haven't a clue what most of the lyrics are tho'. Of course, most descriptive songs depend upon what kind of day I'm having.

I'm in the midst of writing a paper on her and her stuff is great. Anyway, I thought these were such beautiful lyrics (something I aspire to on reasonably good days anyway):

Birds flyin' high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
yeah, its a new dawn its a new day its a new life for me ooooooooh
AND I'M FEELING GOOD

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River runnin' free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
And I'm feelin good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what i mean dont you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done that's what I mean
And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Yeah, Freedom is mine, and I know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
(Free styling)
OH I'M FEELING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD.

my kids say that song was written about me.
