Interesting how those two correspond to each other.

Dear boss, I write this not to you to tell you of my plight,
For at this very moment I am not a pretty sight.

Do you know how they go?

In ancient times,
Hundreds of years before the dawn of history
Lived a strange race of people, the Druids
No one knows who they were or what they were doing
But their legacy remains
Hewn into the living rock, of Stonehenge

"Go straight to hell,
All you government personnel,
Sittin' awf'ly well
In your big, white house up on the hill."

No kidding! I wouldn't have recognized it. Every since the ending, Baby Blue has ramped up considerably, my favorite songs list.
"Squalls out on the Gulf Stream,big storm coming in soon.
I passed out in my hammock,and God I slept till way past noon.Stood up and tried to focus,I knew I wouldn't have to look far,knew I could use a bloody mary,so I stumbled next door to the bar".

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

"Put this in your pipe and smoke it!!"
I keep telling myself that Tesla meant tobacco.
Perchance some electrifying blend I've yet to find...

I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead.........................
To each their own, I guess. Every time some music has me scratching my head (or recoiling in abject horror), I force myself to remember that for any music out there, it's somebody's favorite, somewhere, for some reason. I still remember when I was deep in my crust punk phase, when Green Day came out. It mystified me and then I realized - it's safe music for people who want to feel edgy, but aren't. Likewise, pop country is for suburban housewives who like horses at a distance, pictures of rolling crop fields, and Live Laugh Love.
I don't know who Nickelback appeals to, because I've never met a fan in the wild.
I'm waiting in my cold cell
When the bell begins to chime
When the bell begins to chime
You'll take my life, but I'll take yours too, you fire your musket, but I'll run you through...
I was never much of a metal guy, but I did like that song.
Friggin in The Rigging....
'Twas on the good ship Venus,
By Christ you should have seen us,
The figurehead
Was a whore in bed,
And the mast a rampant penis.
Need I say more. The song was a very old Navy ditty but was also a popular release by the group Sex Pistols in 1979

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida - Iron Butterfly (1968)
In a gadda da vida, honey
Don't you know that I love you
In a gadda da vida, baby
Don't you know that I'll always be true
My very first record album, then RAAD (Record Album Acquisition Disorder) hit...they started piling up all over my bedroom.

Yes! Not only did I think of this song after I responded to this thread, but as of late, I have described some individuals as not being "fit to shovel shit from one place to another."
Take this job and shove it

You know, just the other morning I was hanging around in my house, I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked, I was checking it out...
The devil went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
