    and you can see where it got him.As much as i love the man he, like everyone else, wasn't always right...Who's to say if we're fit or not?...and why must we die?i've found many reasons to live for but no reasons to die.i can be much more useful alive.

    Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
    Or taking a ride on a cosmic train.
    Switch on summer from a slot machine.
    Get what you want to if you want, 'cause you can get anything.

    I know we've come a long way,
    We're changing day to day,
    But tell me, where do the children play?

    Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
    For your lorryloads pumping petrol gas.
    And you make them long, and you make them tough.
    But they just go on and on, and it seems you can't get off.

    Oh, I know we've come a long way,
    We're changing day to day,
    But tell me, where do the children play?

    When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air.
    Will you keep on building higher
    'til there's no more room up there?
    Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
    Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?

    I know we've come a long way,
    We're changing day to day,
    But tell me, where do the children play?

    The world, at least my world, began going to Hell about 1975, when the ring-necked pheasents disapeared. A time ended-- my time, my youth.


    It won't return,.

    I weep for the old days.

    you'd be lucky to have a woman in your life.. I doubt if one would come within 100 yards from you tho.. so I'd say the women of the world are safe from you.. It wouldn't matter how long your hair was you'd still have no class.
    Your the joke... :))

    I'M A HAS-BEEN! There-- I admit it. My best times are squashed road-kill in my rear-view mirror.


    Next stop--infinity. The void. Nothingness. (No more pussycats to feed).

    YIPPEE!

    This thread is like the Hydra: cut off one head, and two spring forth. Hercules solved the problem, but that was in pre-computer days.

    We has been what we is a long time.. now that works for me. :-D words are a funny thing, you can twist and bend them to mean anything. But in the end, it's heart that counts.

    "My First guess for me, and last best bet is, The trip ended, and rather abruptly!" bringing our laughter to a stop, but then continues to say, "All I remember is the line from Young Guns, 'No, they can't see us, we're all in the spirit world!'"

    ...but we have the numbers.What we are really fighting is human nature.It's the devil in you,it's the devil in me.It's not us and them, only us.

    I lit out from Reno
    I was trailed by twenty hounds
    Didn't get to sleep that night
    Till the morning came around

    I set out running but I take my time
    A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
    If I get home before daylight
    I might get some sleep tonight


    I ran into the Devil, babe
    He loaned me twenty bills
    I spent that night in Utah
    In a cave up in the hills


    I set out running but I take my time
    A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
    If I get home before daylight
    I might get some sleep tonight


    I ran down to the levee
    But the Devil caught me there
    He took my twenty dollar bill
    And he vanished in the air


    I set out running but I take my time
    A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
    If I get home before daylight
    I might get some sleep tonight


    Got two reasons why I cry
    away each lonely night
    First one's named sweet Anne Marie
    and she's my heart's delight
    Second one is prison, baby
    the sheriff's on my trail
    If he catches up with me
    I'll spend my life in jail


    Got a wife in Chino, babe
    And one in Cherokee
    First one says she's got my child
    But it don't look like me


    I set out running but I take my time
    A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
    If I get home before daylight
    I might get some sleep tonight

    Jefferson Airplane Lyrics

    Wooden Ships Lyrics



    (UPS) EARTH JULY 1975
    Black sails knifing through the pitchblende night
    Away from the radioactive landmass madness
    From the silver-suited people searching out
    Uncontaminated food and shelter on the shores
    No glowing metal on our ship of wood only
    Free happy crazy people naked in the universe
    WE SPEAK EARTH TALK
    GO RIDE THE MUSIC

    If you smile at me you know I will understand
    Cause that is something everybody everywhere does
    In the same language
    I can see by your coat my friend that you're from the other side
    There's just one thing I got to know
    Can you tell me please who won
    You must try some of my purple berries
    I been eating them for six or seven weeks now
    Haven't got sick once
    Probably keep us both alive
    Wooden ships on the water very free and easy
    Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
    Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
    Very free and easy
    Sail away where the mornin sun goes high
    Sail away where the wind blows sweet and young birds fly
    Take a sister by her hand
    Lead her far from this barren land
    Horror grips us as we watch you die
    All we can do is echo your anguished cry and
    Stare as all you human feelings die
    We are leaving
    You don't need us
    Go and take a sister by her hand
    Lead her far from this foreign land
    Somewhere where we might laugh again
    We are leaving
    You don't need us
    Sailing ships on the water very free and easy
    Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
    Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
    Very free
    And gone
    NO C'MON
    GO RIDE THE MUSIC
    C'MON RIDE IT CHILD
