I thought I would share an original song I recorded with my band about a month ago that seems appropriate for the forum. And besides which, I am listening to it now.

Tear - Baroness Rothschild

Who wants to marry the Baroness Rothschild, who?
Who wants to die in a snow covered wheatfield, who?
Who wants to marry the Baroness?

Who wants to live and be richer than sin?
Who wants to howl like an Indian?
Who wants to marry the Baroness Rothschild, who?

Who would demand taking candy away fron a child?
Who could resist such a kiss, could resist such a smile?
Who wants to marry the Baroness?

Who wants to cry out in horrible pain?
Who wants to straighten my picture frame?
Who wants to marry the Baroness Rothschild, who?

Who could assess her caress with an unpracticed eye?
Who could accept being killed without wanting to die?
Who wants to marry the Baroness?

Who wants to sign with the man for a deal?
Who wants to know how she feels?
Who wants to marry the Baroness Rothschild, who?

Either you run right now or you best get ready to die

"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

Phil Collins - Take Me Home

Take that look of worry
Im an ordinary man
They dont tell me nothing
So I find out what I can
Theres a fire thats been burning
Right outside my door
I cant see but I feel it
And it helps to keep me warm
So i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind

Seems so long Ive been waiting
Still dont know what for
Theres no point escaping
I dont worry anymore
I cant come out to find you
I dont like to go outside
They cant turn off my feelings
Like theyre turning off a light
But i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind

So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Cos Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you

Take that look of worry, mines an ordinary life
Working when its daylight
And sleeping when its night
Ive got no far horizons
I dont wish upon a star
They dont think that I listen
Oh but I know who they are
And i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind
Oh i, I dont mind
No i, I dont mind

So take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home
Cos I dont remember
Take, take me home, oh lord
Well Ive been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you

But I dont remember
Take, take me home...

Everyone here must start wearing suits like those in this video, immediately. All of us.

Love Machine -- The Miracles

The video includes "Do It, Baby," too. And you may listen to it, if you wish. But that's entirely your affair, and no doing of mine. I'm just posting "Love Machine."

And then we should post an ad on Craigslist for road maintenance workers, ask them to wear the same suits, and to meet us outside the Bank of America.

Tears for Fears - Who Killed Tangerine?

Whatcha gonna choose the poison or the lines
Lived with crazy pain in all your life
Something in your mind just tells you no
Hope in conversation starts to flow

Stuck inside a wheel, inside a wheel
Wondering everyday is it all for real
Blinking every time a cold wind blow
Our love don't fill a mile in rose

Danger remains

Watcha gonna do when the old man reads you dry
Step down from the plane and pluck the eye
Slide in deeper closer to the bone
Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone?

Waxing like an old crack 45
Counting out the ways you could stay alive
Placing all the banks and feel the stones
My love won't leave her ways of foam

And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over


Who killed tangerine?
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine?

Who killed tangerine?
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine?

And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
