just one victory


i think i am going to try to make this song my new mantra. there is too much going completely and totally wrong in my life, but life isn't all about me. i need to just forget about it and concentrate on the world at large. give me just one victory, LORD! thanks to dear todd, once again, for inspiring, enlightening and entertaining me.


on to a totally different frame of thought........geddy the bird also seems to be quite fond of jane's addiction. freak. hahahahaha!




We've been waiting so long

We've been waiting so long, oh

We've been waiting for the sun to rise and shine

Shining still to give us the wil

lCan you hear me, the sound of my voice?

I am here to tell you I have made my choice

I've been listening to what's been going down

There's just too much talk and gossip going 'round

You may think that I'm a fool but I know the answer

Words become a tool, anyone can use them

Take the golden rule as the best example

Eyes that have seen will know what I mean

Hold that line, baby hold that line

Get up boys and hit 'em one more time

We may be losing now but we can't stop trying

So hold that line, baby hold that line

If you don't know what to do about a world of trouble

You can pull it through if you need to and i

fYou believe it's true, it will surely happen

Shining still, to give us the will

We've been waiting so long, waiting so long

Been waiting so long, waiting so long

Shining still, to give us the will

Bright as the day, to show us the way

Somehow, someday

We need just one victory and we're on our way

We've been prayin' for it all day

And we're fightin' for it all nigh

tTo give us just one victory, it will be all right

We may feel about to fall but we go down fighting

You will hear the call if you only listen

Underneath it all we are here together

Shining still, to give us the will

Now bright as the day, to show us the way

Hold that line, baby hold that line

Get up boys and hit 'em one more time

We may be losing now but we can't stop trying

So hold that line, baby hold that line

Hold that line, baby hold that line

Get up boys and hit 'em one more time


cool change


i need a break/vacation/holiday/retreat/cool change in the worst sort of way, but am pretty sure that it's not going to happen. if you are out there....and you care: pray for me. please.


Time for a cool change

I know that it's time for a cool change

Now that my life is so prearranged

I know that it's time for a cool change
I've never been romantic

And sometimes I don't care

I know it may sound selfish

But let me breathe the air, yeah

Let me breathe the air

star


you know who you are:


So they've made you a star

Now your head's in a cloud

And you're walkin' down the street

With your feet are off the ground

They read in the press all about your success

They believe every word they've been told

After all you've been through tell what will you do

When you find yourself out in the cold

Ah tell me Ah tell me

When you appear on the stage

There's a standing ovation

You really live out your performance

You're the biggest sensation

You breeze through the door and when you take the floor

You expect to have it all to yourself

After all you've been through tell me what will you do

When you find yourself back on the shelf

Ah, tell me Ah, tell me
