You don’t know how long this took. And I don’t know if it’s 100% right. Anyways. . . . The Unanswered Ones 17) Everbody’s doin’ it Please don’t let them ruin it om 68) “She said, ‘I know you and you cannot sing’/I said, ‘That’s nothing. You should hear me play the piano.’” 1. I’m so tall, I’m so tall You raised me and then you let me fall 2. “I love you kids with your crazy rock and roll. Like that Eddie Van Heflin.” “Van Halen” “Whatever” 3. Face facts/James Brown was old/Til Eric and Rak did ‘I Know You Got Soul’ 4. She moves among men They would seek to have her as a prize But she is in the shadows The ocean and the sand She is everywhere and no place 92a) You’ll take my life but I’ll take yours too You’ll fire musket but I’ll run you through So when you’re waiting for the next attack You better \_\_\_\_\_\* there’s no turning back 100) Well, you should try to smile, dear Get yourself a pet deer, Dog, Cat, Bird, Pig, Lamb, Horse, Cow Fish, a Goldfish a Mouse! 106) “I love my house and car/I love my house and car/I love my house and car” 107) I just wish my life could be as strange as a conspiracy I hold out hope but there’s no way of being what I want to be 108) Livin’ simple, and trying to get by, but honey, prices have shot to the sky! So I fixed up the basement with what I was a-workin’ with. Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment! 114) “Bullshit is bullshit/It just goes by different names” 129)When I looked out of the window on the hardship that had struck I saw seven phials open the plague claimed father and son Four men at a grave in silence with hats bowed down in grace A simple wooden cross, it had no epitaph engraved 130)Got my best suit and my tie Shiny silver dollar on either eye I hear the chauffeur comin’ to the door Says there’s room for maybe just one more 147: I tell you I love you But you won’t believe it’s true More precious than silver More precious than diamond rings or anything that I could give you 159: Cigarette smoke was annoying and my mood was fit for a bath 167). Life is wasted on illusions Tom and Jerry is no solution Evil gains for [something unintelligible] Pinnochio is a real boy, look around! 168). Joan of Arc was burning at the stake somebody had made a big mistake she had lit a cigarette in an airport where you get all your fingers taken off for smoking meanwhile up the road a factory’s choking the ones who killed her work there, I’m not joking 182)Treating today as though it was The last, the final show Get to sixty and feel no regret It may take a little time A lonely path, an uphill climb Success or failure will not alter it 1. Break my body with the back of your hand Doesn’t make sense from where I stand Baby, baby why you wanna mess it up Sooner or later I’ll find my place Find my body better fix my face Please don’t ask me how I’ve been getting off No, please don’t ask me how I’ve been getting off ---
