    ...First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for their participation in this thread...

    Today's song: Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin

    Rock And Roll

    It's been a long time since I rock and rolled,
    It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
    Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
    Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
    It's been a long time, been a long time,
    Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.

    It's been a long time since the book of love,
    I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
    Carry me back, carry me back,
    Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
    It's been a long time, been a long time,
    Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

    Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
    Making vows that just can't work right.
    Open your arms, opens your arms,
    Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.
    It's been a long time, been a long time,
    Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

    And in honor of the Tragically Hip (Canada's biggest band) shows announced today at the ACC, here's a Hip song:

    NEW ORLEANS IS SINKIN'
    Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete
    Under skies, all smokey blue-green
    I can't forsake a dixie dead-shake
    So we danced the sidewalk clean
    My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
    New Orleans is sinkin' man and I don't wanna swim
    Colonel Tom, what's wrong? What's goin' on?
    Can't tie yourself up for a deal
    He said "Hey North, your South, shut your big mouth,
    You gotta do what you feel is re..e..al"
    Ain't got no picture postcards, ain't got no souvenirs,
    My baby, she don't know me
    When I'm thinkin' 'bout those years
    Pale as a lightbulb, hangin' on a wire
    Suckin' up to someone, just to stoke the fire
    Pickin' out the highlights of the scenery
    Saw a little cloud that looked a little like me
    I had my hands in the river,
    My feet back up on the banks
    Looked up top the Lord above,
    and said "hey man thanks"
    Sommmme times I feel so good I gotta scream
    She said Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean
    She said, Ah she said, I swear ta God she said....
    Wooo..ooo...ooo..oo...Na......Naa..a..a
    Wooo..ooo...ooo...Na......Yeah.....
    My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
    New Orleans is sinkin' man and I don't wanna swim
    Swim

    I like this song right now. They compare the band to Weezer. Maybe there's some similarities, but then who are "They" anyway??

    Teenage Dirtbag, by Wheatus:

    Her name is Noel
    I have a dream about her
    She rings my bell
    I got gym class in half an hour
    Oh how she rocks,
    in Keds and tube socks
    But she doesn't know who I am
    And she doens't give a damn about me

    Cuz I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
    Yeah I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
    Listen to Iron Maiden maybe with me

    Her boyfriend's a dick
    He brings a gun to school
    He'd simply kick
    my ass if he knew the truth
    He lives on my block
    And he drives an IROC
    But he doesn't know who I am
    And he doesn't give a damn about me

    Cuz I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
    Yeah I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby
    Listen to Iron Madien maybe with me

    Oh yeah.. dirtbag.. no she doesn’t know what she’s missing
    Oh yeah.. dirtbag.. no she doesn’t know what she’s missing

    Man I feel like mold
    It's prom night and I am lonely
    Lo and behold,
    she's walking over to me
    This must be fake
    My lip starts to shake
    How does she know who I am?
    And why does she give a damn about...

    I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby
    Come with me Friday, don't say maybe
    I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby, like you

    Mother

    Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?
    Mother do you think they'll like this song?
    Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?
    Mother should I build the wall?
    Mother should I run for president?
    Mother should I trust the government?
    Mother will they put me in the firing line?
    Ooooo Is it just a waste of time?
    (Ooooo Mother am I really dying?)
    Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
    Mother's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
    Mother's gonna put all her fears into you.
    Mother's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
    She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing.
    Mama will keep baby cozy and warm.
    Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
    Of course mama's gonna help build the wall.
    Mother do you think she's good enough -- for me?
    Mother do you think she's dangerous -- to me?
    Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
    Mother will she break my heart?
    Hush now baby, baby don't you cry.
    Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
    Mama won't let anyone dirty get through.
    Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
    Mama will always find out where you've been.
    Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
    Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,
    You'll always be baby to me.
    Mother, did it need to be so high?

    Path, do you often talk to yourself? Do you think you should possibly see someone about this?

    puppylove,

    when you're posting away on other websites, do you ever get the feeling you're just talking into the air (or maybe just talking to "air heads")??

    Hey y'all,

    when you're posting away on other websites,

    Why did you qualify this statement as to pertaining to "other websites" Path?

    Btw, Path, you really didn't answer puppylove's question.......

    Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,

    For pete's sake, they were singing words like this since the dawn of jive (my mother told me so.) So much for the younguns' originality.
