Until the sun doesn't shine
'Till time stands still
Until the winds don't blow

When today is just a memory to me
I know I'll still be loving
I'll still be loving Justin

I'll still be loving Justin
I'll still be loving
I'll still be loving Justin
I'll still be loving
I'll still be loving Justin
I'll still be loving
I'll still be loving Justin"

-Restless Heart

BWWWhahahah!!!! Trump is doing poetry now!!!! I tell you the guy continues to amuse ME!!! LOL There is a similar story Chakotay tells on Star Trek Voyager, about the scorpion who begs a fox for a lift across the river. The fox isn't hot on the idea, afraid the scorpion will sting him. The scorpion says "oh now I won't do that!!!!! " so the trusting Fox takes the scorpion on his neck. Half way across the river, the scorpion yes stings the fox. As the fox dies, he asks the scorpion "WHY!!!! Now we will BOTH die, you will drown!!!" the Scorpion replied "It's my nature. I can't change that." so... it's in my ear right now...

Doesn't everybody want love to reign?

Maybe you could explain to me why I'm snaky and then we could fix it, one snake at a time.

My life's story is: If your heart and head agree, sit and fidget.

This is what I think of Justin:

Speaking of being a ditz a few posts ago (and this has nothing to do with Justin), I went to the grocery store twice for the boss this week, and both times, I left the bank bag in the shopping cart and had to return to the store to retrieve it. Fortunately, the people around here are really nice and honest.

I think we were on line at the same time. I wasn't paying attention sorry.... I'm a little off my feed lately. It's cold here and last week was a wreck, next week is shaping up nicely into another wreck. I have a lot of chores to do today not least of which is chainsaw some overgrown bushes that are destroying my chain link fence.

Don't ask me why. It's just rambling around in there:

We sang this in church today. I liked the melody, but I don't think it's on YouTube. Normally, I'm not paying attention to the words, but this resonated:

Send some message from thy word
That may joy and peace afford.
Comfort those who weep and mourn;
Let the time of love return.

I started singing this while making breakfast and doing some dishes this morning (no idea why, but I do love the Mexicali area) .... my mom loved it and I picked it up off her. Went out to find it on youtube, and found two horrible versions, it's a 3/4 waltz (I'm sure a lot of Okie honky tonks played it for the dance floor) easily mangled with the western "Umm pah pah" thing. Bob Wills did it etc. Anyway this is a very pretty song with good structure, and Gene Autry had a lovely voice IMHO. Just thought I'd share. This isn't too bad a version.

I just played some sailor song in 3/4 time, and it reminded me of this.

I heard this on the way to work today, I'm getting the Beatles and Sirius radio for a few weeks. I always liked the song anyway (not paying much attention to the lyrics) and this was hilarioius!!! I was also put in mind of the "soul" song the Roots rendered at the RRHOF... she went over board... this cat is really doing some good screaming funk soul. Marvelous. It WILL wake you up!!!

After that, Breakfast with the Beatles told all us listening Apple Scruffs to have a good day, and played (after flipping a coin) "Across the Universe" which brought tears to my eyes, thinking not only of John and Justin singing it for the Tribute, but also of people who have passed on, and all those ghostly letters floating around in the world from fans, from everyone.... slithering as all those letterboxes tumble across the Universe...

(Can't post that 'cause Beatles songs aren't on youtube... they have good lawyers)

By Paul and Linda McCartney

So I sat in the attic, a piano up my nose,
And the wind played a dreadful cantata. (cantata, cantata)
Sore was I from a crack of an enemy's hose
And the horrible sound of tomato. (tomato, tomato)
Catch up! (catch up!)
Super fury
Don't get left behind. (get left behind)
Catch up (catch up!)
Super fury (super fury)
Don't get left behind. (get left behind, get left behind, get left behind)
When a rattle of rats had awoken
The sinews, the nerves and the veins.
My piano was boldly outspoken
In attempts to repeat this refrain.
So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
And I gazed at that terrible sight,
Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,
Smoking monkberry moon delight, (om pah om pah pah) ho!
Monkberry moon delight, (om pah om pah pah)
Monkberry moon…

Screaming jay Hawkins added some lyrics.... and a few got jiggled around eh? It was a really good laugh on the way to work.

So I sat in the attic

Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose
And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato)

Ketchup (ketchup)
Soup and puree (Soup and puree)
Don't get left behind (get left behind)

Sucking monkberry moon delight

Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight

Well, I know my banana is older than the rest
And my hair is a tangled beretta
When I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest
And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter)

Catch up! (catch up)
Cats and kittens (cats and kittens)
Don't get left behind (get left behind)

Monkberry moon delight
