Simon @ Garfunkel "Bookends Theme"

"Time it was.
And what a time it was...
A time of innocense,
A time of confidences. Long ago...it must be... a photogragh.
Preserve your memories, They're all that's left of you".

"America" complete lyrics

Springsteen' "Thunder Road"
"The sreen door slams,
Mary her dress waves,
Like a vision she dances accross the floor as the radio plays."

"Tunnel Of Love"
"Fat man sitting On a little stool,
Takes the money from my hand while his eyes take a walk all over you".
He's miserable and I am miserable
We are miserable
Can't we have a party
Does he wanna have a party
After all we have to sit here
And he's already drinking a beer
I wanna ask him what's his name
But I can't 'cause I'm so afraid
Of the man on the train.

The Roches, "The Train"
"we're the cold hand sliding down your warm shirt
we're the last of the rock n roll soldiers
we're the bad man comin but it won't hurt
we're the m#therfu%^in rock n roll soldiers"

anthem by the RNRS
"Everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon..." Roger Waters
Animal Collective-My Girls...you really just HAVE to hear it though.

There isn't much that I feel I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
But with a little girl, and by my spouse,
I only want a proper house

I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in the freshest wave,
But to provide for mine who ask
I will, with heart, on my father's grave

On my father's grave
(On your father's grave)

I don't mean to seem like I
Care about material things,
Like a social status,
I just want
Four walls and adobe slabs
For my girls
