From the master...
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
*
"There must be someway outta here", said the joker to the thief.
"There's too much confusion here, I can't get no relief."
and Mr. Malkmus:
After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set,
talk becomes slow but there's one thing I'll never forget:
Hey, you gotta pay your dues before you pay the rent.
*
Blind date with a chancer, we had oysters and dry Lancer's
And the check when it arrived, we went dutch dutch dutch.
*
Capistrano swallow, answer to your inner voice
and please return,
God installed that radar in your pointy little beak
so you'd return.
