The Truth Is Out There



Here are the full lyrics.

NEXT EXIT


We ain't going to the town
We're going to the city
Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart
To be a part of
We ain't going to the town
We're going to the city
Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart
To be a part of
Again

No end
With no end
With no end
With no end
With no end
With no end
But we've come so baby

Make it with me in preparation for tonight
We've got so much to leave
That's not what makes this right
You've been building up steam
Ignited by this fight
So do this thing with me
Instead of tying on a tight one tonight

With no end
With no end
With no end
And we're gone
We ain't going to the town
We're going to the city
Gonna track this shit around
And make this place a heart
To be a part of
Again


"All music if folk music. I ain't never heard no horse sing a song."
Louis Armstrong

"She appears in his dreams.
And in his car and in his arms
A dream could mean anything.
A cheap sunset on a television set
Could upset her
But he never could.

Remember to remember me
Standing still in your past
Holding fast like a hummingbird.
~~~
So he slept on a mountain
In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
He would lie awake and count them.
And the great fountain spray of the great milky way
Would never let him
Die alone."

"Hummingbird" by Wilco

The Golden Virgins - Renaissance Kid

"Freaking out in public is an hideous bore,
I don't want to wake up feeling evil no more,
I am I think I feel a little sadder than you, oh I do,

Everybody's got a little moron inside,
I'd prefer it if mine would just stay in and hide,
I am I think I feel a little sadder than you, oh I do,
I am I think I feel a little sadder than,
I am more of an expert in these matters than you,
And I do what I do cos I do"

Also, same band - Never Had A Prayer

"Pretty ones like you can pick and choose,
But some of us, we're born to lose"


Mark Lanegan - When Your Number Isn't Up

"Did you call for the night porter?
You smell the blood running warm
I stay close to this frozen border, so close I can hit it with a stone
Now something crawls right up my spine
That I always got to follow
Turn out the lights
Don't see me drawn and hollow"


And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure and the privilege is mine.

I could listen to the first two line from Bubblegum on repeat all day, the way Lannegan sings it makes me shiver everytime.

I loved all the lyrics on Drive By Truckers' Tales From a Dirty South.

Puttin' people on the moon
Mary Alice had a baby and it looked just like I did
We got married on a Monday and I been working ever since
Every week down at The Ford plant but now they say they're shuttin down
Goddamned Reagan in the whitehouse an no one there gives a damn

Mclusky- "Forget About Him, I'm Mint"

everyone i leave seems to get away
and everywhere i go i want to travel by rickshaw
thorazine given in your food will stop the headaches
but don't be fooled by what you leave me

everything depends on the getaway
and everywhere i go i want to travel boogie-board
thorazine given in your food will stop the headaches
but don't be fooled by what you leave behind

everyone i know needs to get ahead
and everywhere i go i want to travel by x-wing
thorazine given in your food will stop the headaches
but don't be fooled by what you leave me

everything i leave seems to get away
and everywhere i go i want to travel on my man-legs
thorazine given in your food will stop the headaches
but don't be fooled by what you leave behind

Yeah i know, I'm just messing. I did a signature like that once with a picture of a Maglev and got blasted down by Malax, who's an uber-Mclusky-ite. Teach me to do my research.

I still think it would have been better with Maglev though.
