OK, bonus points for who wrote it and two artists that performed it.

Madmen drummers bummers and Indians in the summer
With a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps
His way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground

Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot
Snappin' his fingers, clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot
With a whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot
And throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot
Save the buckshot, turn up the band

ok 12 hr rule we give up...

here is an obscure one for you. its from an old punk rock record of mine i was just listening to from 1980. seems kinda relevant now. even though im not anti war or anything. just seems kinda prophetic.


I hope you're having fun
where's your uniform? where's your gun?
better rub up that suntan oil
'cause you'll be fighting in the desert
it's not..vietnam
just another oil company scam
salute that flag of uncle sam
get your money out place your bets
it's afghanistan!!
fix baionets,check grenades
got enough bullets
got enough rounds to wipe out this place?
Were the infantry & cavalery
parachutes fill the skie,bodies burn and people die

I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Then sit around and f*&$ my head
Hang out with the living dead
Snort white s#@& up my nose
Pass out at the shows
I don't even think about speed
That's something I just don't need

I've go the ...

I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Then sit around and smoke dope
'Cause I know that I can cope
I laugh at the thought of eating ludes
Laugh at the thought of sniffing glue
Always gonna keep in touch
Never want to use a crutch

Straight Edge - Minor Threat

There I was back in the wild again.
I felt right at home, where I be-long.
I had the feeling, coming over me again.
Just like it happened so many times be-fore. eh.
The Spirit of the Woods is like an old good friend.
Makes me feel warm and good in-side.
I knew his name and it was good to see him again.
Cause in the wind he's still a-live.
Oh Fred Bear
Walk with me down the trails again.
Take me back, back where I be-long.
Fred Bear
I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
and I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
before too long.
It was kinda dark, another misty dusk
it came from a tangle down be-low.
I tried to re-mem-ber everything you taught me so well.
I had to de-cide which way to go.
Was I a-lone or in a hunter's dream.
Cause the moment of truth was here and now.
I felt his touch I felt his guiding hand.
The buck was mine forever more!!

RIGHT HERE, ALL BY MYSELF
I AIN'T GOT NO ONE ELSE
THE SITUATION IS BLEEDING ME
THERE'S NO RELIEF FOR A PERSON LIKE ME

DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION-I GOTTA BREAK FREE
DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION'S GONNA KILL ME

I AIN'T GOT NO FRIENDS TO CALL MY OWN
I JUST SIT HERE ALL ALONE
THERE'S NO GIRLS THAT WANT TO TOUCH ME
I DON'T NEED YOUR GD SYMPATHY

DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION-I GOTTA BREAK FREE
DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION'S GONNA KILL ME

EVERYBODY JUST GET AWAY
I'M GONNA BOIL OVER INSIDE TODAY
THEY SAY THINGS ARE GONNA GET BETTER
ALL I KNOW IS THEY F-IN' BETTER

DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION-I GOTTA BREAK FREE
DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION'S GONNA KILL ME

DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION-I GOTTA BREAK FREE
DEPRESSION'S GOT A HOLD OF ME
DEPRESSION'S GONNA KILL ME

Sorry, wasn't up on the rules yet. After 12 hours you have to put in an answer. This is Blinded by the Light. Written by Bruce Springsteen and re-recorded later by Manfred Mann's Earth Band.

burningman

ok heres one
--------------------------------------------
Held in hands, a warm cup
Of skin always taken in by peers
And friends and the heightened fears
Over the years
Now I know I'm not like everyone

In this head I see the ground
You came from, unknown, undug
From where you were staying in
A backyard bed until
We came together

Raspberry, in my hand
You feel alright but I don't
Know if I am
I can't change
What I am right now, but
I'll be fine in the next life

I know I can say, I'm honest
With myself and with
My red tasty gem
And sure they will try, but
They can't take away
My secret loving friend

And on a good day, my mind
Is like the country...green wide open
A breath of zen that's nice
On the eyes, lonely, without a prayer
Take the trip that I have

Raspberry, in my hand
You feel alright but I don't
Know if I am
I can't change
What I am right now, but
I'll be fine in the next life

take the trip that i have
I am at risk
But I guess you know...
Explosions
From the goldfish bowl
Visions
Of blue girls crying stars
The more the garden sings
The harder it gets to stay in
There are a lot of choices
So many voices ruling me
So many of them at once
Yelling, Everything's a mess...I know

Lalo

wow, now thats what i call a stumper

Romero

I MOTHER EARTH

"Raspberry"

Ready... go...

Well, I'll see you around
Don't want to stay and drown
The drama got too thick
Makes me sick
And I don't wanta talk about it
I already thought about it
Stripped down of my pride
I shed the tears then dried these eyes
It was fun at the start
But maybe we're world's apart
Facing differnet ways
Different plains
And I don't wanta drag it out and
I just got to get on out and
Leave it all behind
It's time so don't deny it
I wanta know...does it show on my face
I'm sick of this place
I wanta move on, cause the feeling is gone
I wanta see...is it me out the door
I told you before
I wanta have fun, and it's just begun
I've seen the light
Tried to talk about it
If you were ever down for me
Just stop...you'd see
You know I'm right
And it showed in your eyes
What we shared had run empty
So let...it be
I wanta know...does it show on my face
I'm sick of this place
I wanta move on...now there's one of us gone
I wanta see...is it me out the door
I said it before
I wanta have fun, and its just begun

what song was it romero?

-----------------------------------------------

There are places I remember all my life,
Though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone, and some remain

All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you,
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more

If you get lonely on your daddy's farm
Just remember I don't live too far.
And there's a red bridge that arcs the bay, yeah
You'll be at my place in less that a day.

So get on your bad motor scooter and ride
Up over to my place and stay all night.
First thing in the morning we'll be feeling all right
So get on your bad motor scooter and ride.

Ooh, the last I seen your face
I swore that no one would take your place.
Now since you've been gone I've been feelin' bad, yeah
I'd come out to your place (but)
I'm afraid of your dad. So you...

Ride, ride, ride.
Come on baby, ooh yeah.
Crank it on up!

bad motor scooter
montrose


I saw her sitting in the rain,
raindrops falling on her.
She didn't seem to care.
She sat there and smiled at me.

And I knew (I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew)
she could make me happy (happy, happy).
Flowers in her hair, flowers everywhere.

I love the flower girl, oh, I don't know just why.
She simply caught my eye.
I love the flower girl, she seemed so sweet and kind.
She crept into my mind.

Suddenly the sun broke through (see the sun).
I turned around she was gone (where did she go).
And all I had left was one little flower from her hair.

But I knew (I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew)
she had made me happy (happy, happy).
Flowers in her hair, flowers everywhere.
