Sing For Rachel

via YourSong.

 Hold dee door for ol' hi dee ho
 Step to da rhthym on da ballroom floor
 Tip down your glasses and give em a wink
 To all the flappers and the mob and Hollywood rat finks
 Strut your stuff get loaded and jive
 Tip tap your toes and do the Fred Astaire slide
 Savor the flavor all the kittens purr
 "Just shake shake shake shake shake your little lovemaker"

cherry poppin' daddies, or, alternate version, kat E

 "so far away
 doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore? 
 it would be so fine to see your face at my door
 and it doesn't help to know you're so far away"
      -Carole King

-Summer

 A lovestruck Romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
 Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
 Finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
 Says something like you and me babe how about it?

- Dire Straits and Jonah

 "let the world collapse and die
 it's sinking deeper in your eyes
 and i will sing a sweet suprise
 for no one
 let the world collapse and swallow
 all the loves you'll hold tomorrow
 and i will shield
 and i will follow 
 no one
 and i'm all screwed up but i feel all right
 sinking deeper all the time
 a silent hole, deep in my mind
 but i love you
 i love you more than life."
           - love you more than life, neutral milk hotel

 "don't change your name
 keep it the same
 i fear i may lose you again.
 i know you won't
 it's just that i
 am unorganized and i wanna find you when 
 something good happens.
 and if you come down
 we'll go to town
 i haven't been there for years
 but i'd be fine 
 wasting our time
 not doing anything here
 just doing nothing.
 we'll sit for days
 and talk about things
 important to us, like whatever
 we'll difuse bombs
 and walk marathons
 and take on whatever together.
 whatever together..."
              - A.M. 180, grandaddy

 "hoeeeeee (hoe)
 you's a hoeee (hoe)
 you's a hoe, i said that you's a hoe (hoe)
 you's a hoe (hoe)
 you's a hoe (hoe)
 you's a hoe, i said that you's a hoe (hoe)
 you doing hoe activity
 with hoe tendencies
 hoes are your friends, hoes are your enemies
 with hoe energy to do what you do
 blew what cha blew, screw what cha screw
 ya'll professional like DJ Clue
 you pulling on my coat tail
 now why you think you take a hoe to a hoe-tel
 hoe, tell everybody, even the mayor
 reach up in the sky for the hoe-zone layer
 c'mon playa once a hoe always
 them hoes nevah close, they open like hallways
 so here's the hoe cake for your hoe crew
 and everybody wants some, cuz hoes gotta eat too."
                    - you's a hoe, ludacris
 
 "you just call
 out my name
 and you know, wherever i am
 i'll come running
 to see you again"

 p.s. "same town, same streets
       different world
       same bed, same sheets
       different world
       same cloudy sky
       over you and i
       same tears
       different eyes
       bon voyage"
       -quasi

 
 if i was beautiful like you
 oh the things i would do
 those not so blessed would be crying out murder
 and i'd just laugh and get away with it too
 like you do

 if i was beautiful like you
 i would never be at fault
 i would walk in the rain between the raindrops
 bringing traffic to a halt

 but that will never be
 that will never never be
 cause i'm not beautiful like you
 i'm beautiful like me

 if i was beautiful like you
 i'd be quick to assume
 and they'd do anything to please me
 (why not?) 
 i see the reaction when you walk into the room

 but that will never be
 that will never never be
 cause i'm not beautiful like you
 i'm beautiful like me
 
 if i was beautiful like you
 i would have so many friends
 always fighting for my time to be nmext in line
 so if i hurt one
 i wouldn't have to make amends

 but that will never be
 no that will never never be
 cause i'm not beautiful like you
 i'm not beautiful like you
 i'm beautiful like me
