    Can the man write a song or what?


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    there's too much that i keep to myself
    and i turn my back on my faith
    it's like glass when we break
    i wish no one in my place

    and i've seen you don't need their seeds
    when their dirt goes in deep
    and i'm lost in sleep

    i can't stay in this place
    i can't stand when the room turns round on my fate
    you give no guarantees
    there's no promise i can't keep

    i can't stand
    i can't see my way
    i feel blind on my feet
    i can't stay too long
    am i wrong?

    goodbye, lay the blame on luck

    i'm so tired of my mood
    and sleep comes with a knife, fork, and a spoon
    you're so pale in your face
    you let life get in your way

    and i've seen you don't need their seeds
    when their dirt goes in deep
    and i'm lost in sleep
    am i wrong?

    goodbye, lay the blame on luck
    goodbye, lay the blame on luck

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    This is the most perfect song I've ever heard.

    we were just singing songs around the camp fire out at hayden lake.

    god, is that serendipity or what?

    if it isn't, i don't know what is.

    i can't remember the first time i posted on sorabji.com. maybe someone else can.

    if so, please let me know.

    i do remember that i used to be purely WAYDing, and then nelly lured me in to the message boards. it had something to do with favorite words or something, i wish i could remember clearer. maybe that's where my first post is. i should look.

    lude.

    anyway, i bet nelly didn't expect what happened. i used to be such a good boy.

    goddamnit. the rottwieler just came in here, ripped some nasty farts, and then left. i have never known a dog to fart as much as this one. his name is either pharoh or faro or something like that. he is rottwieler royalty, so i'm told.

    he's the first dog i've met who has audible farts. the kind i'd imagine i'd have if i ate 6 cups of kibble plus kitchen scraps every day. they start off wet, and then kind of taper off with a breathy release. PTHBBBBffuuffffhhhhhhhhhhh. Then, like a granade, you wait three seconds and it explodes in to your olfactory receptors. MOTHER OF GOD.

    smells kind of like wet dog food. something else to wonder about, considering this one never gets the wet.

    last time i saw him he was more likely to jump up on you, and he had nuts. now he's very calm and very friendly. to me, anyway. i kind of have this animal empathy thing going for me, though.

    i talk to the trees, but they don't listen to me. and then i call the wind mariah.

    i think the fire was tess, and i forget what jo was. maybe the water. or the rain or something.

    anyway, i'm not about to paint my wagon. i'm done with that pioneer crap for awhile.

    i did dig around in some quartz bottomed streams looking for a down payment on something large. i didn't find it,though. if i did, i'd make myself a little noname town, and hijack some broads for it.

    gotta love broads. especially them civilized kind.

    speaking of which, i haven't had any herb in a week, either.

    the either is a referance to an earlier post. if you don't understand, then you probably are a lot like me.

    you don't read the crap that doesn't pertain to you.

    then again, why would i be posting here? maybe it was the refereance to one of the butler clan.

    hayden lake, idaho.

    woohee.

    heh heh. A couple of my dogs uh, break wind, with a noticable sound. It's funny. Whenever Number Nine does it she always sniffs her butt like she's really interested, and whenever Bifff does it he jumps and runs away a little bit, like it scared him.

    Ohhh, where Do they pick up these things?? teeheehee!


By Rhiannon on Friday, September 10, 1999 - 10:24 am:

    Arrrgghh! What are you doing?! Go talk about farts somewhere else!


    Sheesh

    This page has already gone to hell in a handbasket so


    "Pink Thing"

    Any time you rise, I'm here
    And I'm crazy for you, pink thing
    You make me wanna laugh, you make me wanna cry
    And when I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high
    Whoa pink thing

    I want to take you out and show you round the world
    Pink thing, it will be okay
    If I could only wake you from your slumber curled
    Pink thing, what would straight folks say?
    "That man isn't fit to enter heaven
    That man is a sinner, ever burning in disgrace"
    Pink thing, spit in my face
    I would love you for it

    Any time you call, I'll fall into madness for you, pink thing
    You make me wanna live, you make me wanna die
    And when I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high
    Whoa pink thing

    I want to take you out and show you to the girls
    Pink thing, they're a whole new tribe
    If you could only see the way the gingham swirls
    Pink thing, it's a whole new vibe
    "That man isn't fit to be a father
    That man is a sinner"
    'Fore they cast me down to die,
    Pink thing, spit in my eye
    I would love you for it, yes, I would love you for it

    Any time you rise, I'm here
    And I'm crazy for you, pink thing
    You make me wanna laugh, you make me wanna cry
    And when I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high

    I want to introduce you, take you to the brink, thing
    I want to introduce you, tell me what you think, thing
    I want to introduce you, make that missing link, thing
    Don't you think it's time you met some female pink thing?

    You make me wanna laugh, you make me wanna cry
    So why is it I'm happy when there's tears down in your eye?
    Wooooooh, little pink thing

    Why are there so manySongs about rainbows
    And what's on the other side
    Rainbow's are visions
    They're only illusions
    And rainbows have nothing to hide
    So we've been told and some chose to
    Believe it
    But I know they're wrong wait and see

    Someday we'll find it
    The Rainbow Connection
    The lovers, the dreamers and me

    Who said that every wish
    Would be heard and answered
    When wished on the morning star
    Somebody thought of that
    And someone believed it
    And look what it's done so far
    What's so amazing
    That keeps us star gazing
    What so we think we might see

    Someday we'll find it
    That Rainbow Connection
    The lovers the dreamers and me

    Have you been half asleep
    And have you heard voices
    I've heard them calling my name
    Are these the sweet sounds that called
    The young sailors
    I think they're one and the same
    I've heard it too many times to ignore it
    There's something that I'm supposed to be

    Someday we'll find it
    The Rainbow Connection
    The lovers, the dreamers and me

    (As sung by Kermit the Frog)


By Wavydave on Monday, September 13, 1999 - 06:14 pm:

    nah - you gotta listen to the punk version of that song sung by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes - it'll make you giggle when you imagine kermit singing it that way..


    i currently have "I nearly lost you" by the screaing trees - and I have no idea why.


By Gee on Tuesday, September 14, 1999 - 01:43 am:

    Screw that. Kermit rocks the frickin' house!

    Pink Thing

    Come on, people. How many other odes to the penis do you know?


By Cyst on Tuesday, September 14, 1999 - 08:20 pm:

    I like that screaming trees song.

    today I found out that a friend of mine likes the madonna song from austin powers! I'm not the only one! he went out and bought the cd single, just as I plan to!

    I shouldn't feel vindicated, but I do.
