... A policeman knew my name
He said "you can go sleep at home tonight if you can get up and walk away"
I staggered back through the underground and the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwing punches around and preaching from my chair

    I know there's a place you walked
    Where love falls from the trees
    My heart is like a broken cup
    I only feel right on my knees

    I spit out like a sewer hole
    Yet still recieve your kiss
    How can I measure up to anyone now
    After such a love as this?


    Pure Genius

    They finally threw me out
    My mom got drunk on stout,
    My dad couldn't stand on two feet,
    As he lectured about morality.
    Now I guess the family's complete,
    With me hanging round on the street

    Pick up my guitar and play
    Just like yesterday
    Then I'll get on my knees and pray

    Sort of sums up the season?

    This song is over
    I'm left with only tears
    I must remember
    Even if it takes a million years

    I'll sing my song to the wide open spaces
    I'll sing my heart out to the infinite sea
    I'll sing my visions to the sky high mountains
    I'll sing my song to the free, to the free
    I'll sing my song to the wide open spaces
    I'll sing my heart out to the infinite sea
    I'll sing my visions to the sky high mountains
    I'll sing my song to the free, to the free

    C'mon you reds!!!

    No idea what this thread is about. I asked Bobby Dylan, I asked The Beatles, I asked Timothy Leary but he couldn't help me either

    And the world looks just the same
    And history ain't changed
    'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war time we were in division 3

    I was at both of the Who gigs at the Valley in 1974 and 1976. in 1974 my dad was working there on behalf of the LEB and I was backstage with him. I got the autographs of most of the performers that day on the programme. Daltry, Townsend, Entwhistle, Paul Rogers, Lou Reed, Maggie Bell, Ronnie Montrose, Sammy Hagar to name but a few. It would be worth a fortune these days if my mum hadn't chucked it out along with all of my Charlton programmes when I left home...:o(

    Now it ain't no fun and the good's gone now






    This is starting to get to me now. Why can't I remember anything inspirational.

    How does 'Boris' go? That would cheer me up.

    I've got my clipboard, text books. Lead me to the station. Yeah, I'm off to the civil war
    I've got my kit bag, my heavy boots. I'm runnin' in the rain. Gonna run till my feet are raw

    Slip kid, slip kid, second generation
    And I'm a soldier at thirteen
    Slip kid, slip kid, realization
    There's no easy way to be free
    No easy way to be free

    I left my doctor's prescription bungalow behind me. I left the door ajar.
    I left my vacuum flask. Full of hot tea and sugar. Left the keys right in my car

    Slip kid, slip kid, second generation
    Only half way up the tree
    Slip kid, slip kid, I'm a relation
    I'm a soldier at sixty-three
    No easy way to be free

    Keep away old man, you won't fool me
    You and your history won't rule me
    You might have been a fighter, but admit you failed
    I'm not affected by your blackmail
    You won't blackmail me

    Slip kid, slip kid, slip out of trouble
    Slip over here and set me free
    Slip kid, slip kid, second generation
    You're slidin down the hill like me
    No easy way to be free
    No easy way to be free
    No easy way to be free

    Look, he's crawling up my wall
    Black and hairy, very small
    Now he's up above my head
    Hanging by a little thread

    Now he's dropped on to the floor
    Heading for the bedroom door
    Maybe he's as scared as me

    Creepy, crawly
    Creepy, crawly
    Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
    Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
    Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
    Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

    There he is wrapped in a ball
    Doesn't seem to move at all
    Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure
    Pick this book up off the floor

    He's come to a sticky end
    Don't think he will ever mend
    Never more will he crawl 'round
    He's embedded in the ground

    I don't mind if you try once in a while,
    I don't mind if I cry once in a while,
    The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem,
    I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream.

    Yippee i a

    The Eiffel Tower and the Taj Mahal are mine to see on clear days
    You thought that I would need a crystal ball to see right through the haze
