Q. What was Marc Bolan's last hit?
A. A tree.
On the SE coast. And house is asleep for three hours. I am the lone awake person, and felt like it was the middle of the night.
All perfectly quiet, except for my pecking and the hum of the puter.
Sofia - it's all relative!
You're a real fine lady
But your walk's a little shady
Babe you're about to bust the stitches
In your skin tight britches
Ohio Players
Does Czech song count? In any case, here goes my favourite ever, Jaromir Nohavica.
<Svlekni si kosulku, lasko moje,
do rana bileho daleko je,
do rana daleko, k srdci kousek,
krasne je kdyz lidi milujou se>
Undress your little shirt, my love,
the white morning is far away,
Morning is far away, my heart is close-by,
How beautiful when two make love
Well.
You probably won't get any "Ah yes, I remember that one..." but it was a nice addition. We're bi-lingual, now.
I haven't bumped into you yet, dag. Nice to read you.
Hiya Sofia, I am famous by being Littlek's roommate! and by throwing around useless slovak proverbs and idioms, but generally harmless.
sofia - don't let her fool you, she's famous in her own right.
You are both independantly thrilling and famous!
Look, littlek. You are responsible for me first signature... Tanky veddy much!
I've been caught stealing;
once when I was 5...
I enjoy stealing.
It's just as simple as that.
Well, it's just a simple fact.
When I want something, I don't want to pay for it.
I walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey all right! If I get by, it's mine.
Mine all mine!
My girl, she's one too.
She'll go and get her a shirt.
Stick it under her skirt.
She grabbed a razor for me.
And she did it just like that.
When she wants something,
she don't want to pay for it.
She walk right through the door.
Hey all
right! If I get by, it's mine.
Mine all mine!
We sat around the pile.
We sat and laughed.
We sat and laughed and waved it into the air!
And we did it just like that.
When we want something, we don't want to pay for it.
We walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey, all right!
If I get by, it's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine...

"white face, black shirt
white socks, black shoes
black hair, white strat
bled white, died black
sweet gene vincent
let the blue roll tonight
at the sock hop ball in the union hall
where the bop is there delight"

Here's one!
The one who insists he was first in her line
Is the last to remember her name
He's walking around in this dress that she wore
She's gone but the joke's the same
Pretty in pink
Isn't she pretty in pink
--Psychedelic Furs
Who is that gaucho, amigo?
Why is standing in your spangled leather poncho
With the studs that match your eyes?
They got the Steely Dan T-shirt

Running around in the shoes of a clown

On the town
We dress for action
Celluloid bikers
Is Friday's theme
Glamor Profession
And they wandered in
From the city of St. John
Without a dime
Wearing coats that shined
Both red and green
Colors from their sunny island
Royal Scam
Be glad if you can use what you borrow
So I pawn my crown
For a ride uptown
And buy it back tomorrow
Throw Back the Little Ones
A natural man
Wearing a white stetson hat
Unhand that gun begone
There's no one to fire upon
Only a Fool Would Say That
I've got detectives on his case
They filmed the whole charade
[My rival - show me my rival]
He's got a scar across his face
He wears a hearing aid
My Rival
We're gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Josie comes home
We're gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Josie comes home to stay
Josie
and more Steely Dan.
Love your mama, love your brother
Love 'em till they run for cover
Turn the light off, keep your shirt on
Cry a jag on me
Turn That Heartbeat Over Again
Greek medallion
Sparkles when you smile
Sorry, angel I get hungry like a child
Green earrings
I remember
The rings of rare design
Green Earrings
Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine
Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time

No I'm never gonna do it without the fez on
Oh no
That's what I am
Please understand
I wanna be your holy man
The Fez
Kids if you want some fun
See what you never have seen
Take off your cheaters and sit right down
Start the projection machine
Everyone's Gone to the Movies
Gonna do just what I please
Gonna wear no socks and shoes
With nothing to do but feed
All the kangaroos
Black Friday
She wore a
Raspberry beret
The kind U find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
