We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind  
cause your friends don’t dance, and if they don’t dance  
well they’re no friends of mine.

Oddly enough, I was thinking of this very song just as I got to this post. So I’ll go with my alternate post:

But at night I’m a junk food junkie,  
Good lord have pity on me.

We get it almost every night.  
We don’t bark and we don’t bite,  
we keep things loose, we keep things light.  
Everybody was dancin’ in the moonlight.

A very good friend of mine  
told me something the other day.  
I’d like to pass it on to you  
Cause I believe what he said to be true

He said…  
We’re here for a good time  
Not a long time  
So have a good time  
The sun can’t shine every day

**Rilch** baby, that was one of my favorite songs in high school.

Tarzan Boy! Although I always thought it was “Gimme the honor.”

Got the lyrics [here](http://www.ntl.matrix.com.br/pfilho/html/main_index/index.html).

The single was amongst a group of 45s (I am **not** going to explain what 45s are) Mr. Rilch and I found in the basement of his mom’s house. We culled what we wanted and had Friend Across Town burn them to a CD. I’m still not sick of it.

Bloom County. Opus, writing for Deathtongue. Follows a tuba solo. Very poetic.

There’s somethin’ happening here,  
What it is ain’t exactly clear.  
There’s a man with a gun over there, (appropriately enough)  
Tellin’ me I gotta beware.  
I think it’s time we stop,  
Hey, what’s that sound,  
Everybody look what’s going down.
