The word for Thursday, June 11, SURRENDER

AC/DC, BIG BALLS

Well I'm rather upper class high society
God's gift to ballroom notoriety
And I always FILL my ballroom
The event is never small
The social pages say I've got
The biggest balls of all

I've got big balls
I've got big balls
They're such big balls
And they're dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
(But we've got the biggest balls of them all)

And my balls are always bouncing
My ballroom always full
And everybody comes and comes again
If your name is on the guest list
No one can take you higher
Everybody says I've got
Great balls of fire

I've got big balls
Oh, I've got big balls
'N' they're such big balls
Dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
(But we've got the biggest balls of them all)

Some balls are held for charity
And some for fancy dress
But when they're held for pleasure
They're the balls that I like best
My balls are always bouncing
To the left and to the right
It's my belief that my big balls
Should be held every night

We've got big balls
We've got big balls
We've got big balls
Dirty big balls
He's got big balls
She's got big balls
(But we've got the biggest balls of them all)

(We've got big balls
We've got big balls)

And I'm just itching to tell you about them
Oh we had such wonderful fun
Seafood cocktail, crabs, crayfish
(But we've got the biggest balls of them all)

How would you know about whale farts?

Five Man Electrical Band/Tesla, SIGNS


And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh, me working for you"

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house
Hey! What gives you the right!
To put up a fence and keep me out, or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here, he'd tell it to your face, man, you're some kind of sinner

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Oh, say now mister, can't you read
You got to have a SHIRT and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat, you ain't supposed to be here

And the sign says "You got to have a membership card to get inside" - uh!

[Solo]

And the sign says "Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own fuckin' sign
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me, I'm alive and doing fine", oh

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Yes! Some old song, called "Signs Signs", I wish we did write that one, but
We didn't - wow!

The word for Tuesday, June 10, SHIRT
--------------------------------------- added after 9 hours

Gee, my “internal calendar” is all messed up!

Rod Stewart, THIS OLD HEART OF MINE

This old heart of mine been broke a THOUSAND times
Each time you break away, I feel you're gonna stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that go
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more

Maybe it's my mistake to show this love that I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going 'cause

I love you, yes I do, this old heart
I love you, yes I do, yes I do, wait for me

I try hard to hide, my hurt inside
This old heart of mine, always keeps me crying
The way you're treatin' me, leaves me incomplete
You're here for the day, gone for the week

But if leave me a hundred times, a hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours, whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it 'cause

I love you, this old heart weeps for you
And I love you, I love you, this old heart weeps for you

Maybe it's my mistake to show this love that I feel inside, girl
'Cause each day that passes by
You got me never knowing if I'm coming or going 'cause

I love you, yes I do, this old heart of mine weeps for you
I love you, yes I do, I love you, this old heart, darling, weeps for you
I love you, this old heart of mine weeps for you
Love you, yes I do, I love you, this old heart, darling, weeps for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do, I love you, oh yeah

Christina Perri, A THOUSAND YEARS

Heart beats fast
Colours and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a THOUSAND years
I'll love you for a THOUSAND more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a THOUSAND years
I'll love you for a THOUSAND more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a THOUSAND years
I'll love you for a THOUSAND more

One step closer
One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a THOUSAND years
I'll love you for a THOUSAND more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a THOUSAND years
I'll love you for a THOUSAND more

The word for Monday, June 8, THOUSAND

Bob Seger, TURN THE PAGE

On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moaning out its one-note song
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
On the stage
Here I go
Playing star again
There I go
TURN OFF the page

Well, you walk into a restaurant all strung-out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old clichйs, "Is it woman? Is it man?"
And you always seem outnumbered so you don't dare make a stand

Oh, here I am
On the road again
There I am
On the stage, yeah
Here I go
Playing star again
There I go
TURN the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringing in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Ah, here I go
Playing star again
There I go
TURN the page

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
On the stage, yeah
Here I go
Playing star again
There I go
There I go

I know, I know! The BS, the verbal @buse, the claims made of racism and it goes on….

When I’m doing anything and I have no plans, I find myself playing word games and number games on my phone while I’m listening to YouTube. My go to picks are crime and the police vest cam videos. They’re something that I can listen to while doing something else.

My guess is that police officers go through some psychological evaluation prior to being hired. I sincerely don’t know whether I could get up every day and possibly go through that much crap without losing my cool. Just sayin’…….

B.T.O., TAKIN CARE OF BUSINESS

You get up every morning
From your alarm CLOCK’s warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And I'll be

Taking care of business (every day)
Taking care of business (every way)
I've been taking care of business (it's all mine)
Taking care of business and working overtime
Work out

If it were easy as fishin'
You could be a musician
If you could make sounds loud or mellow
Get a second-hand guitar
Chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
People see you having fun
Just a-lying in the sun
Tell them that you like it this way
It's the work that we avoid
And we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day
And we be

Taking care of business (every day)
Taking care of business (every way)
We be been taking care of business (it's all mine)
Taking care of business and working overtime

Mercy
Whooooo
All right

[Instrumental Interlude]

Take good care of my business
When I'm away, every day
Whoooo

You get up every morning
From your 'larm CLOCK's warning
Take the 8:15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
And if your train's on time
You can get to work by nine
And start your slaving job to get your pay
If you ever get annoyed
Look at me I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And I'll be

Taking care of business (every day)
Taking care of business (every way)
I've been taking care of business (it's all mine)
Taking care of business and working overtime

[Brief Instrumental Interlude]

Takin' care of business, whoo
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business (every day)
Takin' care of business (every way)
Takin' care of business (it's all mine)
Takin' care of business
And working overtime
Whoooo
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
We be Takin' care of business
We be Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business
Takin' care of business

I wonder whether this is even typical of police interaction/intervention with suspects accused of shoplifting. This is a 12 minute video and I assure you, 100% “entertaining”.

Nice choice!

AC/DC, YOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONG

She was a fast machine, she kept her motor CLEAN
She was the best damn woman that I ever seen
She had the sightless eyes, telling me no lies
Knocking me out with those American thighs
Taking more than her share, had me fighting for air
She told me to come, but I was already there
'Cause the walls start shaking, the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching, and we were making it

And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me all night long

Working double-time on the seduction line
She's one of a kind, she's just a-mine all mine
Wanted no applause, just another course
Made a meal outta me, and come back for more
Had to cool me down to take another round
Now, I'm back in the ring to take another swing
That the walls were shaking, the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching, and we were making it

And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me all night long
It knocked me out that
You shook me all night long
It had me shaking
And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me
Well, you took me

You really took me and
You shook me all night long
Ah, you shook me all night long
Yeah, yeah, you shook me all night long
You really got me and you, shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me
Yeah, you shook me
All night long

And you better run, you better HIDE
You better leave from my sight, yeah

Whatcha tryin' a do to my soul?

Well, everything I had was yours
And now I'm closin' all the doors
Whatcha tryin' a do to my soul?

And you better run, you better HIDE
You better leave from my sight, yeah

I love you oh, I love you so
Can't you see it? Don't you know?
I can't stand your alibis
Your tellin' lies, you drive me wild, yeah

I said, what are ya tryin' a do to my head?
Whatcha tryin' a do to my head?

Eagles, LYIN’ EYES

City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man and she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style

Late at night, a big, old house gets lonely
I guess every form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice

So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town

You can't HIDE your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to HIDE your lying eyes

On the other side of town, a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the night anticipating
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel

She rushes to his arms, they fall together
She whispers that it's only for a while
She swears that, soon, she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

You can't HIDE your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to HIDE your lyin' eyes

She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry

She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired, or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool

My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things?
You're still the same old girl you used to be

You can't HIDE your lying eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to HIDE your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to HIDE your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't HIDE your lyin' eyes

Here’s an interesting way a father dealt with an issue in his house.

only registered users can see external links

I must admit, a hundred years ago, when I lived in my parent’s home, we, my two sisters and myself, didn’t close our bedroom doors but it wasn’t because our father or mother said we couldn’t, we just didn’t…. In the event that my father was home and we wanted or needed to change clothing, we may have closed the door, but that was it. If it was after school and one of us was changing clothing, I didn’t bother closing the door, who cares if a sister walked by? The only door that I/we closed was the bathroom and in most instances, we didn’t lock that door.

I’m in agreement with you!

Here’s one man’s opinion on why the United States of America is the greatest country in the world. It’s a short video and worth listening to.

Steve Perry, FOOLISH HEART

I need a love that grows
I don't want it unless I know
With each passing hour
Someone somehow
Will be there, ready to share

I need a love that's strong
I'm so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart play the part
Of the fool again
Before I begin

FOOLISH heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
FOOLISH heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong any more

I'm feeling that feeling again
I'm playing a game I can't win
Love's knocking on the door
Of my heart once more
Think I'll let her in
Before I begin

FOOLISH heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
FOOLISH heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong any more

FOOLISH heart
FOOLISH, FOOLISH heart
You've been wrong before

FOOLISH heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
FOOLISH heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong any more

FOOLISH heart
Oh, FOOLISH, FOOLISH heart
You've been wrong before
FOOLISH, FOOLISH heart

The Kinks, LOLA

I met her in a CLUB down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola [LP version - Coca-Cola:]
C O L A cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
L O L A Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said little boy won't you come home with me
Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Well I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Because there is a familial history of rectal colon cancer in my family, I am NOT a candidate for that type of “screening”. No It’s too bad that something as sincere and important as this could be buried. I hope someone has the information that you’re seeking.

A sincere apology extended to Biguyfrfun….. yes, I’m so sorry that your birthday slipped by without any “fanfare”. Biguyfrfun’s birthday WAS Friday, please stop by his page and wish him a happy belated birthday and thank him for being such an integral part of this piece of music fun!

The Zombies, SHE’S NOT THERE

Well, no one told me about her
The way she lied
Well, no one told me about her
How many people cried

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know? Why should I care?
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well, let me tell you 'bout the way she looked
The way she acts and the color of her hair
Her voice was soft and cool
Her eyes were clear and BRIGHT
But she's not there

Well, no one told me about her
What could I do?
Well, no one told me about her
Though they all knew

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know? Why should I care?
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well, let me tell you 'bout the way she looked
The way she acts and the color of her hair
Her voice was soft and cool
Her eyes were clear and BRIGHT
But she's not there

But it's too late to say you're sorry
How would I know? Why should I care?
Please don't bother trying to find her
She's not there

Well, let me tell you about the way she looked
The way she acts and the color of her hair
Her voice was soft and cool
Her eyes were clear and BRIGHT
But she's not there

U2, DESIRE

Lover, I'm off the streets
I'm gonna go where the BRIGHT lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire

She's the candle burnin' in my room
Yeah, I'm like the needle
The needle and spoon
Over the counter, with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody's got one
I'm in a fever, when I'm beside her
Desire
Desire

And the fever, gettin' higher
Desire
Desire
(Burning, burning)

She's the dollars
She's my protection
Yeah, she's the promise
In the year of election
Sister I can't let you go
Like a preacher stealin' hearts at a travellin' show
For love or money, money, money... ?
And the fever, gettin' higher
Desire

This is my list;

Blue cheese (mainly in salad dressing)
Spam (I remember having it a hundred years ago, but it’s nothing I’ve bought)
Sauerkraut (I love it but admittedly don’t buy it enough)
Tofu (it’s something found in hot & sour soup and I love that soup)

I didn’t even notice that there was no #11.

Here’s a funny joke and probably funnier if you happen to be Irish.

I agree with you. Quite often the extra blah, blah, blah is just that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

This is where I’m supposed to say “thank you”, thank you……. Tell the truth, you really wanted to swoop in and post STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN but you didn’t want to hear me whine another time, am I right?


Led Zeppelin, STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to HEAVEN
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to HEAVEN
There's a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

Ooh, makes me wonder
Ooh, makes me wonder

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, really makes me wonder

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter

Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed, now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

And it makes me wonder
Oh, whoa

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow? And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying a stairway to HEAVEN

Nice choice!
