letting the days go by...

Balls! Why didn't I realise this stupid thing would lose everything I'd typed if I went to rich text mode? Me and my italics fetish, it'll be the death of me one day...

Anyway... all quiet at Black Dog HQ. Mum is better - still needs to go back for the scan since the consultant wasn't in today, but she's no longer in pain. Captain Spike has had an hour with his squeaky ball and ten ounces of ground beef (which is probably too much) and has settled in for a happy evening harassing the cat. Me, I'm busily lowering the tone in the Commies' Lounge... I'm only posting so I can rave about the Talking Heads album I rediscovered today... love that band....

SWAMP

Now lemme tell you a story
The devil he has a plan
A bag a' bones in his pocket
Got anything you want
No dust and no rocks
The whole thing is over
All these beauties in solid motion
All those beauties, gonna swallow you up

Let's go: Hi hi hi hi hi hi (etc),
One time too many
Too far to go
I- We come to take you home

Woo hoo!

And when they split those atoms
It's hotter than the sun
Blood is a special substance
They gonna pray for that man

So wake up young lovers
The whole thing is over
Watch out touch monkeys
All that blood, gonna swallow you whole

Let's go:Hi hi hi hi hi (etc0
So soft, hard feelings,
No tricks - let's go

I- We come to take you home

 

How many people do you think I am
Pretend I am somebody else
You can pretend I'm an old millionaire
A millionaire washing his hands
Rattle the bones, dreams that stick out
A medical chart on the wall
Soft violins,  hands touch your throat
Ev'ryone wants to explode

And when your hands get dirty
Nobody knows you at all
Don't have a window to slip out of
Lights on, nobody home

Click click- see ya later
Beta beta- no time to rest
Pika pika- risky business
All that blood, will never cover that mess.

Hi hi hi hi hi
So soft hard feelings
What's that, who's driving
No tricks lets go
I- We come to take you home
I- We come to take you home
Hi hi hi hi hi

There's an empty line in the middle of that that I can't get to delete for some reason. Stupid programme.
