    Part Of The Plan  -  Dan Fogelberg

    When illusion spin her net

    I'm never where I want to be

    And liberty she pirouette

    When I think that I am free

    I never know how long to leave these up.  Will do what badger did and give additional lyrics:

    Watched by empty silhouettes

    Who close their eyes but still can see

    No one taught them etiquette

    I will show another me

    Today I don't need a replacement

    I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant

    My heart going boom boom boom

    "Hey" I said "You can keep my things, they've come to take me home."

     Salsbury Hill - Peter Gabriel - not sure of spelling, sorry!

     Young teacher, the subject, of schoolgirl fantasy

     She wants him so badly, knows what she wants to be....

    Don't Stand So Close To Me....The Police 

    Now, how it can it be

    That a love carved out caring

    Fashioned by fate

    Could suffer so hard

    From a game played once to often

    Something About You -- Level 42

    Look out, Mama,
    there's a white boat comin' up the river
    With a big red beacon,
    and a flag, and a man on the rail
    I think you'd better call John,
    'Cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail

    Neil Young -Powderfinger

    I love this song!

    Who Lived here

    he must have been a gardener who cared alot

    who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop

    and now it all looks strange

    (Long time, no hear. He wrote it for John Lennon.  It was no "Candle In The Wind.")

    Empty Garden  ~ Elton John

    I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes
    When you put me on the Wolverine
    Up to Annandale
    It was still September
    When your daddy was quite surprised
    To find you with the working girls
    In the county jail
    I was smoking with the boys upstairs
    When I heard about the whole affair
    I said oh no
    William and Mary won't do

    Well I did not think the girl could be cruel

    And I'm never going back to My Old School....Steely Dan

    The mama pajama rolled outta bed

    And she ran to the police station

    When the papa found out he began to shout

    And he started the investigation

    Me & Julio Down By The Schoolyard  --  Paul Simon

    Daytime turns me off, and I don't mean maybe
    Nine-to-five ain't taking me where I'm bound
    When it's done, I run out to see my baby
    We get groovin' when the sun goes down

    Thank the Lord for the Night Time - Neil Diamond

    Now a fish kinda likes the water
    And that's just where he wants to be
    And a monkey kinda digs bananas
    So he lives in the top of a tree
    But my eyes are made for darkness
    So the night time is right for me

    and that's Night Owl by Carly Simon/JT

    There is a bar right across the street
    He's got a need he just can't beat
    Out on the floor he shuffles his feet away
    He'll get the girl 'cause he looks so fine
    He's gonna win her every time
    He knows he will, he's dressed to kill, he's a _____ ___

    OK that one was Night Owl by Little River Band

    I don't own the clothes I wear
    And the road goes on forever
    And I've got one more silver dollar
    But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no

    Midnight Rider - Allman Brothers

    I walked 47 miles of barbed wire,
    Used a cobra snake for a neck tie.
    Got a brand new house on the roadside,
    Made out of rattlesnake hide.

    (This song has been covered SO much...see if you can think of two artists.)

    Who Do You Love - Bo Diddley / George Thorogood 

    I woke up in a Soho doorway
    The policeman knew my name
    He said, "You can go sleep at home tonight
    If you can get up and walk away"

    Who Are You? - The Who

    My hopes, my dreams come true, my life, I'd give for you.
    My heart, a wedding ring, my all, my everything.
    My heart I can't control; you rule my very soul.
    My only prayer will be, some day you'll care for me,
    But it's only............

    Make Believe - Elvis

    Children play in the park, they don't know
    I'm alone in the dark, even though
    Time and time again I see your face smiling inside

    Badger,  Elvis sang a million of them, but I don't think he sang this one.  It is Conway Twitty.

    I love the Robert Gordon one too:  It's Only Make Believe

    Your's is:  Make Me Smile - Chicago

    _______ _____ a day in December
    _______ _____ freezing cold weather
    You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids
    If it weren't for your job at the garage
    If you could only oh-oh
    _______ _____a sky full of thunder
    _______ _____my telephone number
    One and one is what I'm telling you, oh yeah

    Do You Believe In Magic?  -  Lovin' Spoonful

    You don't like crazy music.
    You don't like rockin' bands.
    You just wanna go to a movie show,
    And sit there holdin' hands...

    (You're So Square) Baby, I Don't Care -- That's Elvis! (Hee-hee)

    Early in the evenin' just about supper time,
    Over by the courthouse they're starting to unwind.
    Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up.
    Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp.

    Sharp-Dressed Man - ZZ Top

    Big shot, thanks a lot, gotta go, it's getting late
    I got a date with my tailor now, thanks for putting me so straight
    Tell me how they rob me blind on every street
    But check your watch and wallet now before I go and you're too late

    Look Sharp -- Joe Jackson

    I'm gonna throw my date-book over the fence
    And find me one for five or ten cents.
    I'll keep it 'til it's covered with age
    'Cause I'm writin' your name down on every page.

    Who sees you as something as more than sexual
    More than just our Marilyn Monroe
