    Pink Floyd/Stop

    Stop
    I wanna go home
    Take off this uniform
    And leave the show
    And I'm waiting in this cell
    Because I have to know
    Have I been guilty all this time

    Pink Floyd/The Trial

    Good morning, Worm your honor.
    The crown will plainly show
    The prisoner who now stands before you
    Was caught red-handed showing feelings
    Showing feelings of an almost human nature;
    This will not do.
    Call the schoolmaster!

    I always said he'd come to no good
    In the end your honor.
    If they'd let me have my way I could
    Have flayed him into shape.
    But my hands were tied,
    The bleeding hearts and artists
    Let him get away with murder.
    Let me hammer him today?

    Crazy,
    Toys in the attic I am crazy,
    Truly gone fishing.
    They must have taken my marbles away.
    Crazy, toys in the attic he is crazy.

    You little shit you're in it now,
    I hope they throw away the key.
    You should have talked to me more often
    Than you did, but no! You had to go
    Your own way, have you broken any
    Homes up lately?
    Just five minutes, Worm your honor,
    Him and Me, alone.

    Baaaaaaaaaabe!
    Come to mother baby, let me hold you
    In my arms.
    M'lud I never wanted him to
    Get in any trouble.
    Why'd he ever have to leave me?
    Worm, your honor, let me take him home.

    Crazy,
    Over the rainbow, I am crazy,
    Bars in the window.
    There must have been a door there in the wall
    When I came in.
    Crazy, over the rainbow, he is crazy.

    The evidence before the court is
    Incontrivertable, there's no need for
    The jury to retire.
    In all my years of judging
    I have never heard before
    Of someone more deserving
    Of the full penaltie of law.
    The way you made them suffer,
    Your exquisite wife and mother,
    Fills me with the urge to defecate!

    "Hey Judge! Shit on him!"

    Since, my friend, you have revealed your
    Deepest fear,
    I sentence you to be exposed before
    Your peers.
    Tear down the wall!

    Hank Williams, Jr/A Country Boy Can Survive

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4s0nzsU1Wg

    The preacher man says it’s the end of time
    And the Mississippi River she’s a goin’ dry
    The interest is up and the Stock Markets down
    And you only get mugged
    If you go down town

    I live back in the woods, you see
    A woman and the kids, and the dogs and me
    I got a shotgun rifle and a 4-wheel drive
    And a country boy can survive
    Country folks can survive

    I can plow a field all day long
    I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
    We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
    Ain’t too many things these ole boys can’t do
    We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
    And a country boy can survive
    Country folks can survive

    Because you can’t starve us out
    And you cant makes us run
    Cuz we're them old boys raised on shotgun
    And we say grace and we say Ma’am
    And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn

    We came from the West Virginia coalmines
    And the Rocky Mountains and the western skies
    And we can skin a buck; we can run a trout-line
    And a country boy can survive
    Country folks can survive

    I had a good friend in New York City
    He never called me by my name, just Hillbilly
    My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
    And his taught him to be a businessman
    He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
    And I’d send him some homemade wine

    But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
    For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
    I'd love to spit some Beechnut in that dudes eyes
    And shoot him with my old 45
    Cause a country boy can survive
    Country folks can survive

    Cause you can’t starve us out and you can’t make us run
    Cuz we're them old boys raised on shotgun
    And we say grace and we say Ma’am
    And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn

    We’re from North California and south Alabam
    And little towns all around this land
    And we can skin a buck; we can run a trout-line
    And a country boy can survive
    Country folks can survive

    Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers/I Won't Back Down (live)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnrPP3qkM0E

    Well I won't back down, no I won't back down
    You could stand me up at the gates of hell
    But I won't back down

    Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
    And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
    Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down

    Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
    Hey I will stand my ground
    And I won't back down

    Well I know what's right, I got just one life
    In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
    But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down

    Hey baby there ain't no easy way out
    Hey I will stand my ground
    And I won't back down
    No, I won't back down
