> [@NE Texan](#): > > The voices… yeah, I hear the voices in my head. I swear to god, it sounds like they’re snoring. I want you to get a gun And head on down to Washington I want you to climb up high High in the sky And shoot them all Th-Th-They d-d-don’t deserve to live What did they ever give to you? You know what I want you to do? I want you to go upstairs to that apartment where that guy keeps playing that Barry Manilow record “Copacabana” over and over and over again. I want you to ring the doorbell, and when he answers the door. I want you to stab him in the neck with a number 2 pencil over and over and over again because he must pay! Chop him up and put him in the freezer and as you leave the apartment, light the place on fire! ---

Well, I lived in a place call Okfuskee, and I had a little girl in a holler tree. I said, “Little girl, it’s plain to see, ain’t _nobody_ who can sing like me…way over yonder in the minor key.” ---

> [@Loopydude](#): > > I said, “Little girl, it’s plain to see, ain’t _nobody_ who can sing like me…” What did you sing? A song? Did you sing out loud? Sing it strong? Hell, don’t worry if it’s not good enough for anyone else but you. Just sing. Sing a song. ---

Songs are great. I like mine sung blue. It’s a funny thing, that you can sing with a cry in your voice. ---

Oh, I do, because I was born a poor young country boy; Mother Nature’s son. All day long I’m sitting singing songs for everyone. ---

When that shark bites with his teeth, dear, scarlet billows begin to spread. Fancy gloves, though, has MacHeath, dear, so there’s never, never a trace of red. ---

Funny you should mention fish. I just returned from Grand Coulee Dam, and while I was above the spillway, I noticed a family of fishies trying to jump over without much success. And I’ll be hornswoggled if the momma fishy didn’t say to the babies “Swim! Swim, if you can!” And they swam and they swam all over the dam. I turned to my friend and said “Boop-boop, diddum-daddum, waddum…choo!” He said “Gesundheit!” ---

No use crying forever because there’s too many fish in the sea. Too many fish in the sea. There’s short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones. ---

We need to tie this rope before we drift any deeper. There now hold me close. Let’s take this overboard now. I want you to rock the boat, work the middle. Stroke it for me, stroke it for me. ---
