Lyric of the Day: Great Divide

Barmaid, play me some Buffett
I'm in a mood to get away.
So pour me a vacation
I need to leave here right away.

Lyric of the Day: Jimmy Buffett

'Cause I want to be there,
I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
With a tin cup for a chalice
Fill it up with good red wine,
And I'm-a chewin' on a honeysuckle vine.
Jimmy Buffett

Lyric of the Day: Lovin' Spoonful

Hot town, summer in the city 
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty 
Been down, isn't it a pity 
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

And all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way

To you, O Lord, I lift my soul
In you, O God, I place my trust
Do not let me be put to shame
Nor let my enemies triumph over me

Lyric of the Day: Jimmy Buffett

Can you tell me where I might find my friend and companion
He looks a little different from anything you've seen
He likes to beat the bass drum for justice and salvation
He's got the brains of Einstein and brawn of Mister Clean.

Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.

My hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?

Lyric of the Day: 2pac

Perhaps I was addicted to the dark side 
Some where inside my childhood I missed my heart die 
And even though we both came from the same places 
The money and the fame made us all change places

When the change was made uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the coastline to the city
All the little pretties raise their hands
