In Memory of Cassandra

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good They will laugh in your face, Then try to steal your man from you Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't be no fool

Bargain

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I had
To find you I'd suffer anything and be glad

I'd pay any price just to get you
I'd work all my life and I will
To win you I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop

I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad
To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

I sit looking 'round
I look at my face in the the mirror
I know I'm worth nothing without you
In life one and one don't make two
One and one make one
And I'm looking for that free ride to me
I'm looking for you

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop

I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad
To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had


The Who

Lots of songs remind me, or make me think of joe... and one time I asked joe if there happened to be any songs that reminded him of me. One of the songs he mentioned (also by the who and listed at the bottom) is all about a guy running from his wife, (oh yeah that was nice to hear) and the other was this one. =-) I like this one better. I know I had already published the following blog earlier today, but while in the shower this song, Bargain- came on the radio.... made me smile. Still am. Ok.. back to the original blog of the day......

I really wish I could find my 1984. It's not a warning, it's not something to think about, it's a stylized portrait of the world today. It is not something to fear, but something to realize and to wonder how and it got to be.

we go on with our lives, and as 20 year olds it isn't hard. During the day some struggle to make the money for the things they want to have, or refuse, but either way both at night throw themselves into their youth and who feels like their living if they aren't loving someone, drinking something, driving somewhere or just in general being young.

Who - My Wife

My life's in jeopardy
Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be
I ain't been home since Friday night
And now my wife is coming after me
Give me police protection
Gonna buy a gun so
I can look after number one
Give me a bodyguard
A back belt Judo expert with a machine gun
Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
When she catches up with me
Won't be no time to explain
She thinks I've been with another woman
And that's enough to send her half insane
Gonna buy a fast car
Put on my lead boots
And take a long, long drive
I may end up spending all my money
But I'll still be alive
