I know, Nore, but so what? I must not have had time to read and post the first time ?round



<< Any thing 1990-93 is really sick.... >>


What!?! How about the one album wonders, Arrested Development? 3 Years, 5 Months and 2 days is still one of my favorite albums ever of any genre, and that came out in ?92

I?m gonna recommend Atmosphere. I?ve been listening to ?Free or Dead? nearly constantly for the last 5 days. I just finished typing all the lyrics to the song, and I?ve never done that before. I think the song speaks to me in a way.

I might as well post my latest time killing typing project here:

Atmosphere - Free or Dead

See here I am tryin? to be the man, right?
Using my gun to see at night, sleepin? with my flashlight
And in the afterlife I hope the A/C works,
So while I wait, well, I?m ?a pass out and taste this curb
And she attacked with flirts, smacked my nerves,
Wearin? that black skirt, got my nature so hard it made my back hurt
I cracked a smirk ?cause I was dumb and drunk,
She gave a wink and a smile and dropped a quarter in my cup
Man, people are kind of odd, so I keep my eyebrow raised
I only hear the words for what they mean, know what I mean?
And I do believe in God, ?cause I keep coming across
All these fine women with low self esteem (yeah,) you know what I mean
I got attention deficit, I got the bedroom eyes
I got the storms in my head, I got my telephone voice
I got to make a decision of whether I live or die
I?d rather just run, ?cause either way, it?s one hell of a choice

(Yo,) my car is like my own personal universe
She?s my drug and it only takes twelve bucks to fill ?er up
But in my galaxy, there ain?t no room for Earth
So I?m leavin? it cause I can feel the oil pressure building up
Turnin? over the ignition of my solar system
Check the gauges, push in the tape, put my foot on the brake
Shift existence, light my cigarette, and take it state to state
Until I crash into my fate

Now I?m givin? back everything they gave me (not a damn thing!)
It would take more than a good D.J. to save me (I?m not dancing!)
I can?t seem to make up my bed, much less my mind
So I?m ?a take another puff to my head and press rewind
I wish this car had cruise control so I could rest my legs
I got this itch to prove my soul, and test my fate
I?m doin? hunny in a sixty-five, got stopped by a copper
Caught, spotted, and radar?d by a chopper
Wisconsin style, over the limit by forty miles
Watch me smile, ?cause I ain?t been ?round here for a long while
Grabbed my paper, gave her thank?, have a nice day!
Yo, word of advice, trade the donuts in and get some rice cakes
Back to my travels, running from my shadow
Passing hitchhikers and bikers, honkin? the horn, harassing the cattle
Hair back, stickin? to the seat, sweat drippin? from the heat
Diggin? through a cooler of brew, I?m lookin? for something to eat
Yo, there?s a Hardee?s at the next spot, don?t wanna, but I need ta
?Cause I?m cravin? somethin? to chase the taste of this tequila

Ninety East toward Chicago, on my way to Cincinnati
And I won?t ever let ?em catch me, and I won?t ever make ?em happy
Watch your wives and your daughters when I?m passing through the hometown
Castin? line into the water, catchin? goldfish out your bowl
And I?m as cool as the cat who came to school just for lunch
I?m the rebel, pissin? in the public pool just for fun
High speed in the sun, everyone is speakin? in tongues
Find the talk radio station, yo, turn it up so it bumps!
Don?t cry, girl, I?m out, now I?m ?a make my way east
?Cause everyone in my world is taking my peace
I need release, and I don?t think I?m ?a find it between your legs
No, I?m just joking, I?m only goin? to the corner to get some eggs
So while she starts makin? the coffee, I toss my bags in the back seat
And I can remember it all, like it must have happened last week
Some times I stop to think of all the money I?ve spent
How I?d rather live in a tent than bust my ass to pay the rent
But I mean good to pay my dues, and I?d be glad to pay the tollbooth
And I?ve agreed to sing the blues, ever since the day I broke loose
Just like a blindfolded child walkin? through the toy store
Voice, not even aware that the world is my oyster

My car is like my own personal universe
She?s my drug and it only takes twelve bucks to fill ?er up
But in my galaxy, there ain?t no room for Earth
So I?m leavin? it cause I can feel the oil pressure building up
Turnin? over the ignition of my solar system
Check the gauges, push in the tape, put my foot on the brake
Shift existence, light my cigarette, and take it state to state
Until I crash into my fate

[Repeat Chorus]
