With apologies to Jeff Lynne -- after I started thinking about this, I can't get it out of my head.



"I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone"
- Byrds, Feel A Whole Lot Better

"She gives me her cheek, oh but I want her lips
and I don't have the strength to go
On the lost side of town in a dark apartment...
we gave up trying so long ago"
- Dave Alvin, Fourth of July

"Take off, it's a beauty way to go"
- Geddy Lee, Take Off

"He said I'd find out soon; I've got too much Saturn and not enough Moon"
- Francis Dunnery, Too Much Saturn

"I'm sick of hearing about sadness, I'm sick of violent crime
I'm sick of angry, militant, lesbian feminists
I'm sick of imperfect rhyme."
- Kevin Gilbert, When You Give Your Love to Me

"Goodness gracious, is there nothing left to say?
When the ones that get to keep looking are the ones who look away.
It's pabulum for the sleepers in the cult of brighter days."
- Kevin Gilbert, Goodness Gracious

"masque of goodness and of grace the blood of angels made to face the horror of the naked truth is only what you make it do the things you want to do complete the animal that has to eat the innocent are left to bear the blame we'll never have to wear them masque of honor Liebens born of darkness brothers we are sworn you make us strong when we are weak you are the only truth we seek you only to forget the hollow men we have become your followers so lead us now to paradise we'll never have to wear them masque of goodness and of grace..."
- Kevin Gilbert, Shadow Self

"20 times I've tried to tell you, 20 times I've cried alone.
Always, I'm surprised how well you cut my feelings to the bone."
- Lowen & Navarro, We Belong

"If I was to buy you a diamond ring
and make you my princess, would it mean anything?
Would you take me for granted and just curse my name?"
- John Mellencamp, Now More than Ever

"Last night I told a stranger all about you
He smiled patiently with disbelief
I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried
and I know you did it all in spite of me"
- Morphine, In Spite of Me

"They all hate us anyhow, so let's drop the big one now"
- Randy Newman, Political Science

"Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights its way back to your side"
- Whiskeytown, 16 Days

"Don't surround yourself with yourself, move on back two squares"
- Yes, I've Seen All Good People

"Sing, bird of prey;
Beauty begins at the foot of you."
- Yes, Siberian Khatru

"We're still building then burning down love
And when I go there, I go there with you..."
U2- Where the Streets Have No Name

"Can't this car go any faster?
Can't this car go cause I can still see where I am."
- Dada, Dim

"In this life I’ve seen everything I can see woman,
I’ve seen lovers flying through the air hand in hand
I’ve seen babies dancing in the midnight sun,
And I’ve seen dreams that came from the heavenly skies above
I’ve seen old men crying at their own gravesides
And I’ve seen pigs all sitting watching picture slides
But I never seen nothing like you."
- The Move, Do Ya

"With the dark, I see so very clearly now
All my fears are drifting by me so slowly now
...fading away"
- Genesis, Follow You, Follow Me
