BLUE OYSTER CULT --- THIS AIN'T THE SUMMER OF LOVE

Feeling easy on the outside

But not so funny on the inside

Feel the sound, pray for rain

For this is the night we ride

 

This ain't the garden of eden

There ain't no angels above

And things ain't like what they used to be

And this ain't the summer of love

 

Lock all your doors from the outside

The key will dangle by the inside

You may begin to understand

That this is the night we ride

 

This ain't the garden of eden

There ain't no angels above

And things ain't like what they used to be

And this ain't the summer of love

 

On the night we ride...this ain't the summer of love.

 

This ain't the garden of eden

There ain't no angels above

And things ain't like what they used to be

And this ain't the summer of love

This ain't the summer, this ain't, this ain't

This ain't the summer of love

Silver Mantis - T-Bone Burnett:

 

 

Seito lived in the canyon of the dragons Sashiko lived in the valley of the moon

They met along the highway to Aomeri where danger in the forest loomed

 

Shashiko dressed in silks and dreamed of heroes

She was carried in a hammock draped and veiled

Her father was a cruel and brutal warlord who fearful kept her in a shell

 

Seito he was but a lowly servant but his master knew him to be true and brave

When he happened on the scene of her abduction he sent her captors to their graves

 

Seito guarded Sashiko to her palace he had no thought of ransom to conceal

She took him in and washed his cuts and bruises and laid him softly down to sleep

 

When morning came she rose to tell her father

Of the stranger who had ruined the kidnap plot

But jealous and enraged her father seized him and chained him in the dungeon dark

 

Sashiko's tears flowed like the river Edo as she pleaded Seito's freedom face to floor

But the warlord turned his back and would not hear her

His mercy withered years before

 

When night fell she crept down into the dungeon

Two daggers hidden underneath her coat

And there they slept in death by harakiri her father's chains around them both

In honor of the recent RUSH thread I bring you Subdivisions. I don't care what anybody says, these are great lyrics about suburban alienation:

 

Sprawling on the fringes of the city

In geometric order

An insulated border

In between the bright lights

And the far unlit unknown

 

Growing up it all seems so one-sided

Opinions all provided

The future pre-decided

Detached and subdivided

In the mass production zone

Nowhere is the dreamer or the misfit so alone

 

(Subdivisions)

In the high school halls

In the shopping malls

Conform or be cast out

(Subdivisions)

In the basement bars

In the backs of cars

Be cool or be cast out

Any escape might help to smooth the unattractive truth

But the suburbs have no charms to soothe the restless dreams of youth

 

Drawn like moths we drift into the city

The timeless old attraction

Cruising for the action

Lit up like a firefly

Just to feel the living night

 

Some will sell their dreams for small desires

Or lose the race to rats

Get caught in ticking traps

And start to dream of somewhere

To relax their restless flight

Somewhere out of a memory of lighted streets on quiet nights...

This song from LCD Soundsystem is a real earworm.

 

LCD SOUNDSYSTEM --- I CAN CHANGE

 

Tell me a line make it easy for me

Open your arms

Dance with me until I feel all right

It's good in the dark, good in the dark

But into the lover's light

Here comes another fight

 

So ring the alarm, ring the alarm

Bar me and hold me and cling to my arm

Here it comes, here it comes

 

And what you're asking me now, disastrous now

Hoping and hoping and hoping

The feeling goes away

 

Never change, never change, never change, never change

Never change, never change, never change

This is why I fell in love oooh

 

Never change, never change, never change, never change

Never change, never change, never change

That's just too up there in love with

(in loveeeee ...)

 

This is the time the very best time

So give me a line and take me hoooome

Take me oveeeer

 

But dashing the hopes dashing the hopes

And smashing anekatips the pride

The morning's got you on the ropes .. ooh

 

And love is a murderer , love is a murderer

But if she calls you tonight

Everything is all right

Yeah, we knoooooow

And love is a curse shoved in a hearse

Love is an open book to a verse of your bad poetry

And this is coming from me

 

But I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(fall in looove)

I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(fall in looove)

 

Turn on the light make it easy for me

Fill the divide fumble in the kitchen

til it's right

What an awful sight

 

But there's love in your eyes

Love in your eyes, love in your eyes

But maybe that's just what your lover finds

All niiiiiight!

 

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(fall in looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(fall in looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you feel real love

(real looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(in looove)

I first heard this in the late 70's in some forgotten club in Houston.

 

Shake Russell is an undiscovered gem of a songwriter...look him up on itunes.

 

SHAKE RUSSELL --- DEEP IN THE WEST

 

Deep in the west where the tall mountains grow I've gone home

Where the heavens above turn red from the fire down below

Are you listening to me when I'm talking to you

Said together we're one divided we're through

Divided we're through.

 

Silver friend at night yellow friend you come with the dawn

Back in my heart I've been drying my eyes see me run

So you hang on to me and I'll hang on to you

Said together we're one divided we're through

Divided we're through.

 

Refusing to talk I suppose that it's all for love's sake

And learning to give that's important before you can take from me

Are you listening to me when I'm talking to you

Said together we're one divided we're through.

 

So you hang on to me and I'll hang on to you

Said together we're one divided we're through

Divided we're through...

The song’s meaning has been examined and scrutinized for years. On the surface, a casual listener will undoubtedly hear the persuasion to partake in illegal/recreational activity.

 

Upon further review, one may theorize that Dylan means “stoned” in the biblical sense.

 

And what’s with the numbers 12 and 35? I got no answers...just for fun, multiply them together…..

 

Well, they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good,

They'll stone ya just a-like they said they would.

They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home.

Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone.

But I would not feel so all alone,

Everybody must get stoned.

 

Well, they'll stone ya when you're walkin' 'long the street.

They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to keep your seat.

They'll stone ya when you're walkin' on the floor.

They'll stone ya when you're walkin' to the door.

But I would not feel so all alone,

Everybody must get stoned.

 

They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.

They'll stone ya when you are young and able.

They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to make a buck.

They'll stone ya and then they'll say, "good luck."

Tell ya what, I would not feel so all alone,

Everybody must get stoned.

 

Well, they'll stone you and say that it's the end.

Then they'll stone you and then they'll come back again.

They'll stone you when you're riding in your car.

They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.

Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,

Everybody must get stoned.

 

Well, they'll stone you when you walk all alone.

They'll stone you when you are walking home.

They'll stone you and then say you are brave.

They'll stone you when you are set down in your grave.

But I would not feel so all alone,

Everybody must get stoned.

Perfect Bookends to a wonderful, innocent time

 

Wild Billy's Circus Story

 

The machinist climbs his ferris wheel like a brave

And the fire eater's lyin' in a pool of sweat, victim of the heatwave

Behind the tent the hired hand tightens his legs on the sword swallower's blade

And circus town's on the shortwave

 

The runway lies ahead like a great false dawn

Fat lady, big mama, Missy Bimbo sits in her chair and yawns

And the man-beast lies in his cage sniffin' popcorn

As the midget licks his fingers and suffers Missy Bimbo's scorn

Circus town's been born

 

Whoa, and a press roll drummer go, ballerina to and fro

Cartwheelin' up on that tightrope with a cannon blast lightin' flash

Movin' fast through the tent Mars bent, he's gonna miss his fall

Oh God save the human cannonball.

And the flying Zambinis watch Margarita do her neck twist,

And the ringmaster gets the crowd to count along: "Ninety-five, ninety-six, ninety-seven"

A ragged suitcase in his hand, he steals silently away from the circus grounds

And the highway's haunted by the carnival sounds

They dance like a great greasepaint ghost on the wind

A man in baggy pants, a lonely face, a crazy grin

Runnin' home to some small Ohio town

Jesus send some good women to save all your clowns

 

And circus boy dances like a monkey on barbed wire

And the barker romances with a junkie, she's got a flat tire,

And now the elephants dance real funky and the band plays like a jungle fire

Circus town's on the live wire

And the strong man Sampson lifts the midget little Tiny Tim way up on his shoulders, way up

And carries him on down the midway past the kids, past the sailors

To his dimly lit trailer

And the ferris wheel turns and turns like it ain't ever gonna stop

And the circus boss leans over, whispers into the little boy's ear "Hey son, you want to try the big top?"

All aboard, Nebraska's our next stop.

 

The Last Carnival

 

Sundown, sundown

They're taking all the tents down

Where have you gone my handsome Billy?

 

Sundown, sundown

The carnival trains' leavin' town

Where are you now my darlin' Billy?

 

We won't be dancing together on the high wire

Facing the lions with you at my side anymore

We won't be breathin' the smoke and the fire

On the midway

 

Hangin' from the trapeze my wrists waitin' for your wrists

Two daredevils high up on the wall of death

You throwin' the knife that lands inches from my heart

Sundown

 

Moonrise, moonrise

The light that was in your eyes

Has gone away

 

Daybreak, daybreak

The thing in you that made me ache

Has gone to stay

 

We'll be riding the train without you tonight

The train that keeps on movin'

Its black smoke scorching the evening sky

A million stars shining above us like every soul livin' and dead

Has been gathered together by a God to sing a hymn over your bones

 

Sundown, sundown

Empty are the fairgrounds

Where are you now my handsome Billy?

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros

40 Day Dream

 

I've been sleeping for forty days and

Yeah, I know that I'm sleeping cause this dream's too amazing

She got gold doorknobs where her eyes used to be, yeah

One turn and I learned what it really means to see, yeah

 

It's the magical mystery kind

Must be a lie

Bye bye to the too good to be true kind of love

Oooooh I could die

Oooooh now, I could die

 

Now I've been sleeping for sixty days and

Nobody better pinch me

Bitch I swear, go crazy

She got jumper cable lips

She got sunset on her breath

I inhaled just a little bit

Now I got no fear of death

 

It's the magical mystery kind

Must be a lie

Bye bye to the too good to be true kind of love

Oooooh I could die

Oooooh now, I could die

Revolution 9

- by John Lennon & Paul McCartney

 

...Bottle of claret for you if I'd realised

I'd forgotten all about it George, I'm sorry,

Will you forgive me?

Mmm yes

 

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number...

 

...Then there's this Welsh Rarebit

wearing some brown underpants

...About the stortage of grain in Hertfordshire

Everyone of them knew that as time went by they'd

Get a little bit older and a little bit slower but...

It's all the same thing, in this case manufactured by

Someone who's always umpteen (...)

Your father's giving it diddly-i-dee

district was leaving...

Intended to die (...) Ottoman...

(...)...Long gone through...(...)

I've got to say irritably and...

(...) Floors, hard enough to put on (...)

Per day's md in our district

There was not really enough light to get down,

And ultimately (...) Slumped down

Suddenly...

They may stop the funding...

Place your bets

The original

Afraid she'll die (...)

Great colours for the season

Number nine, number nine

Who's to know?

Who was to know?

 

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

 

I sustained nothing worse than (...)

Also, for example

Whatever you're doing

A business deal falls through

I informed him on the third

night, when fortune gives...

People ride, people ride

Ride, ride, ride, ride

Ride

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Ri-i-i-i-ide

Ri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ide

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

(...) I've missed all of that

It makes me a few day's late

Compared with, like, wow!

And wierd stuff like that...

(...) Taking our sides sometimes

(...) Floral bark

Rouge doctors have brought this specimen

I have nobody's short-cuts, aha...

Nine, number nine

(...) With the situation

They are standing still

The plan, the telegram...

(Hubbbbba, hubbbbba, hubbbbbba, hubbbbba, hubbbbba

Number nine, number Hubbba)

A man without terrors from beard to false

As the headmaster reported to my son

He really can try, as they do, to find function...

Tell what he was saying, and his voice

was low and his hive high,

And his eyes were low...

Alright!

It was on fire and his glasses were the same

This thing know if it was tinted,

But you know it isn't

To me it is...

 

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine, number nine

 

So the wife called me and we'd

better go to see a surgeon

to price it (...) Yellow underclothes

So, any road, we went to see a dentist instead

That gave her a pair of teeth

which wasn't any good at all

So I said I'd marry, join the

fucking navy and went to sea

Block that kick, block that kick

In my broken chair, my wings are

broken and so is my hair

I'm not in the mood for whirling

How?

Dogs for dogging, hands for clapping

Bird's for birding, and fish for fishing

Them for themming and when for whemming

...Only to find the night-watchman

Unaware of his presence in the building

Number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine

Number nine, number nine

Industry allows financial imbalance

Thrusting it between his shoulder blades

The watusi, the twist

Eldorado

Take this, brother, may it serve you well

 

Maybe it's nothing

What, what oh...

Maybe, even then, impervious in London

...Could be difficult thing...

It's quick like rush for peace because it's so much

Like being naked

It's alright, it's alright, it's

alright, it's alright

It's alright, it's alright, it's

alright, it's alright

It's alright

If, you've become naked

 

Block that kick, block that kick, block

that kick, block that kick

Block that kick, block that kick, block

that kick, block that kick

Block that kick, block that kick, block

that kick, block that kick

Block that kick, block that kick, block

that kick, block that Nixon

DAWES- When My Time Comes

 

great cd, start through finish! Great debut for these guys,hope the follow up doesn't disappoint. F.Y.I. free show

Aug. 6th Fountain Square, Cincinnati

 

There were moments of dreams I was offered to save

I live less like a workhorse, more like a slave

I thought that one quick moment that was noble or brace

Would be worth the most of my life.

 

So I pointed my fingers, and shout a few quotes I knew

As if something that's written should be taken as true

But every path I have taken and conclusion I drew

Would put truth back under the knife.

 

And now the only piece of advice that continues to help:

Is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else.

 

When my time comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

When my times comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

 

So I took what I wanted and put it out of my reach

I wanted to pay for my successes with all my defeats,

And if heaven was all that was promised to me

Why don't I pray for death?

And now it seems like the unraveling has started too soon,

Now I'm sleeping in hallways and I'm drinking perfume

And I'm speaking to mirrors and I'm howling at moons

While the worst and the worst that it gets.

 

Oh you can judge all the world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.

Yes you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

 

When my time comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

When my time comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

 

Oh you can judge all the world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.

Yes you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

 

When my time comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

When my time comes,

Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.

If It's the Beaches

The Avett Brothers

 

Don't say it's over

Cause that's the worst news I could hear I swear that I will

Do my best to be here just the way you like it

Even though its hard to hide

Push my feelings all aside

I will rearrange my plans and change for you

 

If I could go back

That's the first thing I would do I swear that I would

Do my best to folow through

Come up with a master plan

A homerun hit, a winning stand

A gaurantee and not a promise

That I'll never let your love slip from my hands

 

If it's the beaches

If it's the beaches' sands you want

Then you will have them

If it's the mountains' bending rivers

Then you will have them

If it's the wish to run away

Then I will grant it

Take whatever what you think of

While I go gas up the truck

Pack the old love letters up

We will read them when we forget why we left here

 

-the damn song is a bit habit forming. I keep coming back to it over and over again.

Feeling like a little Zevon tonight

 

I was staying at the Marriott

With Jesus and John Wayne

I was waiting for a chariot

They were waiting for a train

The sky was full of carrion

"I'll take the mazuma"

Said Jesus to Marion

"That's the 3:10 to Yuma

My ride's here..."

 

The Houston sky was changeless

We galloped through bluebonnets

I was wrestling with an angel

You were working on a sonnet

You said, "I believe the seraphim

Will gather up my pinto

And carry us away, Jim

Across the San Jacinto

My ride's here..."

 

Shelley and Keats were out in the street

And even Lord Byron was leaving for Greece

While back at the Hilton, last but not least

Milton was holding his sides

Saying, "You bravos had better be ready to fight

Or we'll never get out of East Texas tonight

The trail is long and the river is wide

And my ride's here"

 

I was staying at the Westin

I was playing to a draw

When in walked Charlton Heston

With the Tablets of the Law

He said, "It's still the Greatest Story"

I said, "Man, I'd like to stay

But I'm bound for glory

I'm on my way

My ride's here..."

Big gorilla at the L.A. Zoo

Snatched the glasses right off my face

Took the keys to my BMW

Left me here to take his place

 

I wish the ape a lot of success

I'm sorry my apartment's a mess

Most of all, I'm sorry if I made you blue

I'm betting the gorilla will too

 

They say Jesus will find you wherever you go

But when He'll come looking for you, they don't know

In the meantime keep your profile low

Gorilla, you're a desperado

 

He built a house on an acre of land

He called it Villa Gorilla

Now I hear he's getting divorced

Laying low at L'Ermitage, of course

 

Then the ape grew very depressed

Went through transactional analysis

He plays racquetball and runs in the rain

Still he's shackled to a platinum chain

Say say my playmate

won't you lay hands on me?

mirror my malady?

transfer my tragedy?

 

Got a curse I cannot lift

shines when the sunset shifts

when the moon is round and full

gotta bust that box gotta gut that fish

 

My mind's aflame

 

We could jet in a stolen car

but I bet we wouldn't get too far

before the transformation takes

and bloodlust tanks and

crave gets slaked

 

My mind has changed

my body's frame but god I like it

my hearts aflame

my body's strained but god I like it

 

My mind has changed

my body's frame but god I like it

my hearts aflame

my body's strained but god I like it

 

Charge me your day rate

i'll turn you out in kind

when the moon is round and full

gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your

mongrel mind

baby doll I recognize

you're a hideous thing inside

if ever there were a lucky kind it's

you you you you

 

I know its strange another way to get to know you

you'll never know unless we go so let me show you

I know its strange another way to get to know you

we've got till noon here comes the moon

so let it show you

show you now

 

Dream me oh dreamer

down to the floor

open my hands and let them

weave onto yours

 

Feel me, completer

down to my core

open my heart and let it

bleed onto yours

 

Feeding on fever

down all fours

show you what all that

howl is for

 

Hey hey my playmate

let me lay waste to thee

burned down their hanging trees

it's hot here hot here hot here hot here

 

Got a curse we cannot lift

shines when the sunset shifts

there's a cure comes with a kiss

the bite that binds the gift that gives

we're howling forever

now that we got gone for good

writhing under your riding hood

we're howling forever

tell your gra'ma and your mama too

it's true true true

we're howling forever

we're howling forever

we're howling forever

we're howling forever

we're howling forever

This stuff is genius. Magnolia Electric Co "Dark Don't Hide It"

 

Something held me down it made me make a promise

That I wouldn’t tell if the truth forgets about us

Saying it now comes easily

After finding out how you’ve been using me

 

At least the dark don’t hide it (x4)

 

You only said you wanted friends

For long enough to get rid of them

You found the kind you knew would only kill you

So you surrounded yourself with them

 

At least the dark don’t hide it (x4)

 

Now the world was empty on the day when they made it

But heaven needed someplace to throw all the shit

Human hearts and pain should never be separate

They wouldn’t tear themselves apart both trying to fit

 

At least the dark don’t hide it (x4)

 

Now death is gonna hold us up in the mirror

And say we’re so much alike we must be brothers

See I had a job to do but people like you

Been doing it for me to one another

 

At least I don’t hide it (x4)

The CFL Sessions - Song Written Upon Getting Cut From the Argos

 

http://www.thecflsessions.ca/songs.html

 

 

We could walk all night in this city

And still be in this city

We could talk all night about leaving

And still be in this city

I could drink all night in this city

If we had any money

 

Would you rather be sober and tired

Or drunk and bankrupt?

 

We could dig all night in this city

And still be in this city

We could dream of our home

And still be in this city

I could drink all night in this city

If we had any money

 

Would you rather be sober and tired

Or drunk and bankrupt?

If we had any money

 

Would you rather be sober and tired

Or drunk and bankrupt?

 

Wait a minute, Canadian football players write songs? :brow Those lyrics are wonderful! And I think I'd rather be drunk and bankrupt, if this is one-a them polls.

I just want to be there when the shit hits the fan

Catch it all in a bucket

And use what I can...

Ian Tyson - Someday Soon

 

There's a young man that I know whose age is twenty-one

Comes from down in southern Colorado

Just out of the service, he's lookin' for his fun

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

 

My parents can not stand him 'cause he rides the rodeo

My father says that he will leave me cryin'

I would follow him right down the roughest road I know

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

 

But when he comes to call, my pa ain't got a good word to say

Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days

 

So blow, you old Blue Northern, blow my love to me

He's ridin' in tonight from California

He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

 

When he comes to call, my pa ain't got a word to say

Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days

 

So blow, you old blue northern, blow my love to me

He's ridin' in tonight from California

He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

Someday soon, goin' with him

D - take a look at the guy who wrote the song. Incredibly good looking in a mind mannered way:

I take it you meant mild-mannered? Yum, nice eye candy. :thumbup

 

I've been listening the past couple of days to your terrific mix from a year ago, the one that begins W/ Jon Rae Fletcher's "Big Talker". Great summertime listening! :yes

I ever send you Jon-Rae and the River? Incredible.

They are like Magnolia Electric Company but instead of werewolves/ moons and memory spells they sing about sex.

 

Hahaha, that sounds lovely. Send away if you're so inclined. I'm also crazy about the Jay Clark song, "Anastasia" with its disparaging remark about Riverside, CA. Cracks me up every time.

Okee! Put the Jay Clark song on just for you. Rest of the album is equally strong. I've got some zipping to do.
