What's your song of the afternoon?

[AggieDave 6]

For me, I've got some good ol honky tonk country in my playlist.

The song of the afternoon for me is "Im' Gonna Hire A Wino" by David Frizzell.

Quote

I came crawling home last night, like many nights before
I finally made it to my feet as she opened up the door.
And she said, "You're not gonna do this anymore."

She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."

She said: "Just bring your Friday paycheck, and I'll cash them all right here.
And I'll keep on tap - for all your friends, their favorite kinds of beer.
And for you, I'll always keep in stock, those soft aluminum cans.
And when you're feeling macho, you can crush them like a man."

She said: "We'll rip out all the carpet, and put sawdust on the floor.
Serve hard boiled eggs and pretzels, and I won't cook no more.
There'll be Monday night football, on T.V. above the bar.
And a pay phone in the hallway, when your friends can't find their car."

She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."

She said: "You'll get friendly service, and Friday atmosphere.
I'll slip on something sexy, and I'll cut it clear to here.
Then you can slap my bottom, every time you tell a joke.
Just as long as you keep tipping, well, I'll laugh until you're broke."

She said: "Instead of family quarrels, we'll have a bar-room brawl,
When the Ham's bear say's its closing time, you won't have far to crawl.
And when you run out of money, you'll have me to thank.
You can sleep it off next morning, when I'm putting it in the bank."

She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino, to decorate our home,
So you can feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
When you and your friends get off from work, and have a powerful thirst.
There won't be any reason, why you can't stop off here first."

She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."

--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

My song of the afternoon is "Afternoon Delight"


EDIT TO SAY:

Dayum I did not realize we were to post the lyrics.

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right'
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
A little afternoon delight
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around
We could make a lot of lovin' 'for the sun goes down

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Afternoon delight!

"Sunset Boulevard" by Charlie Robison.

Quote

Well, I wish I had my picture
On the Rolling Stone today
I wish that the Enquirer
Spread a roumor that I was gay
I wish I had some buddies
Some movie stars and such
‘Cause I probably wouldn’t worry
About the two of us as much

Chorus:
And I’d spend all my money
On caviar and cocaine
And I would not remember
How you broke my heart today

You know I, I wish I had a super model
So skinny and so wild
And a waitress in Nevada
She says she’s carryin’ my child
I’d drive down Sunset Boulevard, my hair
Blowin’ in the wind
I’d stop at fancy restaurants
And they’d finally let me in

Chorus

Yeah, I wish I had my picture
With the Rolling Stones today
And I wish the Enquirer
Spread a rumor that I was gay
I wish I knew a movie star
Someone like Charlie Sheen
‘Cause if he’d hang out
with Kato Kaelin
Well, I guess he’d hang out with me
And I’d spell all my money
On caviar and Rogaine
And I would not remember
How you broke
My heart today

My wife is hotter than your wife.

Nickelback - Figured you out

I like your pants around your feet
I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

Ooooh
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed,
While you put me to the test
I like the wine stains on your dress

And I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I love your pants around your feet
And I love the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

It's getting way too much radio play, but I still like it.

Fade by Staind

I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too much to conceive

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

So where were you?
When all this I was going through
You never took the time
To ask me just what you could do

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I never meant to fade...
Away

I NEVER MEANT TO FADE

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I try to breathe...

Something from long ago in my life.................a song that has been going through my head today...........still a great song.

THAT SMELL
(Allen Collins, Ronnie Van Zant)

Whiskey Bottles, and brand new cars
oak tree your in my way
there is too much coke
and too much smoke
look what's goin on inside you


chorus

ooh that smell
can't you smell that smell
ooh that smell
can't you smell that smell
the smell of death surrounds you

Angle of darkness is upon you
stuck a needle in your arm
(you fool you)
So take another toke
have a blow for ya nose
one more drink fool will drown you
(yeah you)

chorus They call you prince charmin
can't speak a word when your full of ludes
say you be all right come tommorrow
but tommorrow might not be here for you
yeah you

chorus Stick them needles in your arm
I know i been there before

One little problem that confronts you
got a monkey on your back
just one more fix, lord
might do the trick
one hellofa cost for you to get your kicks
( yeah you )
just one more fix lord, might do the trick
one hellofa cost for you to get your kicks
hell yeah

"To defy the laws of tradition" -- Primus

Quote

What if christmas didn’t come this year
And no one paid for christmas cheer?
Who would cry the biggest tear,
The child or the store?
Why do brides wear virgin white?
Most do not deserve that right.
But to choose a color of their delight
Would surely bring on the frowns.
To defy the laws of tradition
Is a crusade only of the brave.
Suppose the taxman, he comes to town,
And you don’t lay your money down.
Yet mr. jones he killed mr. brown the other day.
Well I wonder, who’s gonna go to hell.

[Kennedy 0]

cool verse. very...interesting

My song of the day is all about me.

Quote

School Boy Heart Jimmy Buffett & Matt Betton

I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye
Stout sailor's legs and a license to fly
I came with nomad feet and some wandering toes
That walk up my longboard and hang off the nose

I suppose the need to focus never arose
So something like a Swiss Army knife, that's my life
Frankenstein had nothing on this body of mine
The villagers still flockin' to see, to see me
Breakin' free, breakin' free

"Cause I got a school boy heart, novelist eye
Stout sailor's legs and a license to fly
I got a bartender ear and a beachcomber style
Piratical nerve and a vaudevillian style

I-yi-yi-yi-yi, i-yi-yi-yi-yi

I suspect I died in some cosmic shipwreck
With all hands spread all over the deck,--what the heck.
Then some kind of unseen and unscrupulous mind
Began to pick up what he could find, added ice
Shook me twice, rolled the dice

Now I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye
Stout sailor's legs and a license to fly
I got a native tongue from way down south
It sits in the cheek of my Gulf coastal mouth

I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye
Stout sailor's legs and a license to fly
I came with nomad feet and some wandering toes
That glide up my longboard and hang off the nose

I-yi-yi-yi-yi, i-yi-yi-yi-yi,.......

witty subliminal message
Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards.

Chris Cagle - Chicks Dig it.

Played it in a bar last saturday night and people started groovin.
-------------------------------
Hey y'all watch this!

Daddy's belt, mamas drapes
Standin' tall on the backyard shed
Lookin' cool in my superman cape
I told the neighbourhood girls
Said hey y'all, watch this
My fate was a broken arm
And my reward a one day kiss
When daddy asked me why I did it
I made him laugh out loud when I told him
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made, oh yeah
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Oh yeah
Mmmm

Black top road, learner permit
Thought I was Earnhardt
Drivin' fast, but I didn't see the ditch
Took out a mailbox, then a fence, then a barn
The police came and called my father
But I met the farmer's daughter
And when the judge asked me why I did it
He threw the book at me when I told him
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made, oh yeah
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Life is short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Oh yeah
Ohh, oh

Just throw caution to the wind my friend
And then sit back and watch your life begin, cause

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Yeah pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah, life's short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
It don't matter if you lose or ifyou win it
Hey the chicks dig it
Oh yeah
Chicks dig it
Mmm
The chicks dig it
Ah, hey, aw yeah
The chicks dig it

I got this scar when I was three years old showing off for the girl next door
on my tricycle
And the on over my eye, well I got that back in '82 jumpin' off the train
tressele bridge
But I got the girl, hah, oh
The chicks dig it!

having an emo day... some Dashboard.., Silverstein and Thursday but right now:

Taking Back Sunday - You're So Last Summer.

She said
"don't, don't let it go to your head
Boys like you are a dime a dozen,
Boys like you are a dime a dozen"
She said
"you're a touch overrated,
you're a lush and I hate it
but these grass stains on my knees
they won't mean a thing"

And all I (all I)
Need to know (need to know)
Is that I'm somethin you'll be missin
(is that I'm somethin that you're missin)
(maybe I should hate for this)
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that far
(maybe I should hate for this)
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that...

I'd never lie to you
Unless I had to
I'll do what I got to
Unless I had to
I'll do what I go to, the truth
is you could slit my throat
And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleedin on your shirt

And all I (all I)
Need to know (need to know)
Is that I'm somethin you'll be missin
(is that I'm somethin that you're missin)
(maybe I should hate for this)
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that far
(maybe I should hate for this)
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that...

Cuase I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be last chance you get to drop my name
Cuase I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be last chance you get to drop my name

If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar

And you shed not a single tear for the things that you didn't need
'Cause you knew you were finally free - Death Cab For Cutie

i love that song but i am listenin to Taking Back Sunday " Great Romances of the 20th Century"

September never stays this cold
where I come from
And you know
I’m not one for complaining,
But I love the way you’d roll
excuses off the tip of your tongue
as I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)
fall apart

This won’t mean a thing come tomorrow
and that’s exactly how I’ll make it seem
Cause I'm still not sleeping,
thinking I’ve crawled home from worse than this

So please, please (please)
I’m running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)
and I never said I’d take this
I never said I'd take this lying down

She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
(I never said I’d take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
and I've crawled home from worse than this)
She says
"come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”
She says
"come on, come on.."

You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything
You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything
You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything
You always come so close...
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know...

You always come close but this never comes easy
You always come close but this never comes easy
You always come... you come in close

I never said I'd take this lying down
I never said I'd take this lying down
I never said I'd take this lying down
but I've crawled home from worse than this

If it's not keeping you up nights
then what’s the point
then what’s the point
then what’s the point
then what’s the point

I'm in your room
now is this turning you on
am I turning you on?

I'm in your room
are you turned on?

I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm thinking maybe
are you turned on,
are you turned on?

Song: Pepper
Band: Butthole Surfers

Verse #1:

Marky got with Sharon
Sharon got Cherice
She was sharin' Sharon's outlook on the topic of the seas
Mikey had a facial scar
Bobby was a racist
They were all in love with dyin'
They were doin' it in Texas
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain
Then he lost his leg in Dallas
He was dancin' with a train
They were all in love with dyin'
They were drinking from a fountain
That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain.

CHORUS:

I don't mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips and
Smell you in my clothes
Cinnamin and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people's eyes.

Verse #2:

Some will die in hot pursuit
In firey auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche comin' down the mountain.

[CHORUS]

Verse #3:

Another Mikey took a knife
While arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death
He caught a nasty virus
Then there was the ever present
Football player-rapist
They were all in love with dyin'
They were doin' it in Texas
Holly caught a bullet
But it only hit his leg
Well, it should have been a better shot and
Hit him in the head
They were all in love with dyin'
They were drinkin' from a fountain
That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

[CHORUS]
