whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass."

"I was flyin' back from Lubbock
I saw Jesus on the plane
...or maybe it was Elvis
You know, they kind of look the same."
Don Henley, "If Dirt Were Dollars"
"Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun."
Pink Floyd, "Time"
"Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy, she'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

But you only want the ones that you can't get."
The Eagles, "Desperado"
"Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye
And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance."
Garth Brooks, "The Dance"
"Gonna hitch a ride,
Head for the other side;
Leave it all behind,
Never change my mind.
Gonna sail away,
Sunlight's another day;
Freedom on my mind,
Carry me away for the last time."
Boston, "Hitch a Ride"
"You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend."

and get it right from the start."

Things go better with rock!"

Goodbye my love, the tide waits for me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
To the sea."
Alan Parsons Project, "Time"
"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end."
Semisonic, "Closing Time"
"They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please them all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me."
Metallica, "The Unforgiven"
"Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!"
Supertramp, "The Logical Song"
"Daddy says she's too young,
but she's old enough for me."
Winger, "Seventeen"
