I once started a week long trip after listening to Alannis Morresette, "I got one hand in my pocket".


I've never listened to that CD again.

Who sings that song? What is it called? I don't think I have ever heard it. I'm not much of a radio person.

Old MacDonald had a farm, eiei-o
And on his farm he had a Yam, eiei-o
With a backpack here, and a solo tent there,
A one way ticket to Maine up there
Old MacDonald had a farm, eiei-o.

I know how to fix it.
If a song ever gets stuck in your head, just start humming "Smoke on the Water." Works everytime.

For you "old farts":
Three songs by Harry Nilsson, all on his "Nilsson Schmilsson" album (1971).

"Jump into the fire;"
especially the opening bass line.

"Gotta Get Up;" I think of this just about every morning.

"Going Down:" Everytime I get on the elevator at work - ". . .going down, down, to the bottom of a hole . . "

Thank you Ruby! LOL, My song has been "My paw's bigger than your paw", (mostly 'cause Abby's in love with it and sings it constantly) for several weeks now. I think I might have to send a copy to Treebait and HPM and Laurel. =) Look out James Brown!

It's such a good feeling to know you're alive.
It's such a happy feeling: You're growing inside.
And when you wake up ready to say,
"I think I'll make a snappy new day."
It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling,
The feeling you know that we're friends.

That song is in my head and it's driving me crazy!

THIS IS THE SONG THAT DOESNT END
YES IT GOES ON AND ON MY FRIEND
SOME PEOPLE STARTED SINGING IT
NOT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS
AND THEY WILL CONTINUE SINGING IT
FOREVER JUST BECAUSE...........
THIS IS THE SONG THAT DOESNT END................................................

A cautionary Song

The Decemberists

there's a place your mother goes when everybody else is soundly sleeping
through the lights of beacon street
and if you listen you can hear her weeping, she's weeping,
cause the gentlemen are calling and the snow is softly falling on her petticoats
and she's standing in the harbor and she's waiting for the sailors in the jolly boat
see how they approach

with dirty hands and trousers torn they grapple 'til she's safe within their keeping
a gag is placed between her lips to keep her sorry tongue from any speaking, or screaming
and they row her out to packets where the sailor's sorry racket calls for maidenhead
and she's scarce above the gunwales when her clothes fall to a bundle and she's laid in bed on the upper deck

and so she goes from ship to ship, her ankles clasped, her arms so rudely pinioned
'til at last she's satisfied the lot of the marina's teeming minions in their opinions

and they tell her not to say a thing to cousin, kindred, kith or kin or she'll end up dead
and they throw her dirty dollars and return her to the habor where she goes to bed
and this is how your fed

so be kind to your mother
though she may seem an awful bother
and the next time she tries to feed you collard greens
remember what she does when you're asleep

I had one of those old folky 70's songs in my head this morning.

"Come Monday, it'll be alright. Come Monday, I'll be holding you tight..."

Why? I don't know.

I don't think I realized that it was a Jimmy Buffet song. :)
Never really have had any exposure to the Buffet man, besides that awful Cheeseburgers in Paradise and of course Margaritaville.
