Got a job
that's okay
but they've got me workin' night and day.
Punchin' in
punchin' out
is this really what life's all about?
What you are gonna do
what you are gonna feel? I don't know.
What you are gonna feel
what you are gonna do?
Won't someone tell me?
What you wanna say
what you wanna do
there's only one thing left to say.
What you wanna do
what you wanna say.
C'est la vie
c'est la vie -
That's iust the way it goes - That's right!
C'est la vie
C'est la vie -
That's iust the way it goes - That's right!
Baby's gone all alone
are you sad because you're on your own?
Get back up
party down
there's so many good ones still around.
What you are gonna do
what you are gonna feel? I don't know.
What you are gonna feel
what you are gonna do?
Won't someone tell me?
What you wanna say
what you wanna do
I guess there's just one thing to say.
C'est la vie
c'est la vie -
That's iust the way it goes - That's right! . . .
Hey
it's J.J.
what you been doin'?
You say your car broke down
the thing just isn't movin'.
Say J.J.
don't you know when you're down
there's just one way to go
And that's singin'
C'est la vie
c'est la vie -
That's iust the way it goes - That's right! . . .
C'est la vie
c'est la vie -
That's iust the way it goes - That's right! . . .
C'est la vie

YUP THATS LIFE. ONE DAY YOU HAVE A BOOK CLUB. THEN THE NEXT DAY AND THE NEXT TWO MONTHS A DUDE REFUSES TO CHOSE A BOOK SO WHEN THE DUDE IS SKIPPED OVER HE GETS ALL PASSIVE AGRESSIVE AND REFUSES TO READ THE BOOK SELECTED SO BOOK CLUB DIES. THATS LIFE

Domino Dancing by Pet Shop Boys
I don't know why, I don't know how
I thought I loved you, but I'm not sure now
I've seen you look at strangers too many times
A love-you-once is of a, a different kind
Remember when we felt the sun
A love like paradise, how hot it burned
A threat of distant thunder, the sky was red
And when you walked, you always - turned every head
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day) Domino dancing
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day, domino dancing)
I thought that when we fought I was to blame
But now I know you play a different game
I've watched you dance with danger, still wanting more
Add another number to the score
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day) Domino dancing
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day, domino dancing)
When you look around you wonder
Do you play to win?
Or are you just a bad loser?
(All day, all day)
(All day, all day)
I don't know why, I don't know how
I thought I loved you but I'm not sure now
I hear the thunder crashing, the sky is dark
And now a storm is breaking within my heart
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day) Domino dancing
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day, domino dancing)
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day) Domino dancing
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day, domino dancing)
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day) Domino dancing
(All day, all day) Watch them all fall down
(All day, all day)
HOLY 80S BATMAN!!!

John Wayne and Jesus by Pat Green
I met John Wayne and Jesus when I was just a kid
They both had on their cowboy hats just like I'd pictured them
I stood up at the front of the class waving my American flag
I said the pledge, sang amber waves of grain
And(But) I sing all the songs of America
Danced in the rain in Lafayette
I'm still hanging out with John Wayne and Jesus
And I know this is good as life can get
Well, I had big time when I was down in Houston
Well, I fell in love and moved out to New Orleans
Well, she said so long, now I'm here all alone
She's still got a little bitty piece of me
And(But) I sing all the songs of America
Danced in the rain in Lafayette
I'm still hanging out with John Wayne and Jesus
And I know this is good as life can get
Well John Wayne and Jesus moved out to Hollywood
Workin' behind the scenes on MTV
Me I'm standing right down here in Texas
And I know that's where I was always meant to be
And(But) I sing all the songs of America
Danced in the rain in Lafayette
I'm still hanging out with John Wayne and Jesus
And I know this is good as life can get
WOW... I THOUGH THERE WOULD BE A LITTE IRONY HERE BUT NOPE... JESUS AND JOHN STRAIGHT UP...

Purple Toupee by They Might Be Giants
remember the year I went to camp
I heard about some lady named Selma and some blacks
Somebody put their fingers in the President's ears
It wasn't too much later they came out with Johnson's wax
I remember the book depository where they crowned the king of Cuba
Now that's all I can think of, but I'm sure there's something else
Way down inside me I can feel it coming back
Purple toupee will show the way when summer brings you down
(Purple toupee when summer brings you down)
Purple toupee and gold lame will turn your brain around
(Purple toupee and gold lame)
Chinese people were fighting in the park
We tried to help them fight, no one appreciated that
Martin X was mad when they outlawed bell bottoms
Ten years later they were sharing the same cell
I shouted out, "Free the Expo '67"
Till they stepped on my hair, and they told me I was fat
Now I'm very big, I'm a big important man
And the only thing that's different is underneath my hat
Purple toupee will show the way when summer brings you down
(Purple toupee when summer brings you down)
Purple toupee and gold lame will turn your brain around
(Purple toupee and gold lame)
Purple toupee is here to stay after the hair has gone away
The purple brigade is marching from the grave
We're on some kind of mission
We have an obligation
We have to wear toupees
I WAS TO HAVE SEEN TMBG TONIGHT AT THE OGDEN. THE FRIGGIN BLIZZARED RUIND THAT. NOW I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL JULY. THIS SONG IS FOR DAN. AARON HATES MUSIC. HIS PROSTATE AND HEMROIDS MAKE HIM CRANKY. HE HAD ROIDS RAGE.

Cuba Cuba Libre by Ace of Base
Cuba, cuba here I come
There's a place in the caribbean sun
Land of future

Give me someone to dance with and love
When the sun goes down
While Fidel is growing his hair

(Just Like) Starting Over
Our life together is so precious together,
We have grown - we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let's take our chance and fly away somewhere alone,
It's been so long since we took the time,
No-one's to blame,
I know time flies so quikly,
But when I see you darling,
It's like we both are falling in love again,
It'll be just like starting over - starting over,
Everyday we used to make it love,
Why can't we be making love nice and easy,
It's time to spread our wing's and fly,
Don't let another day go by my love,
It'll be just like starting over - starting over,
Why don't we take off alone,
Take a trip far, far away,
We'll be together on our own again,
Like we used to in the early days,
Well, well, well darling,
It's been so long since we took the time,
No-one's to blame,
I know time flies so quikly,
But when I see you darling,
It's like we both are falling in love again,
It'll be just like starting over - starting over,
Everyday we used to make it love,
Why can't we be making love nice and easy,
It's time to spread our wing's and fly,
Don't let another day go by my love,
It'll be just like starting over - starting over,
Our life together is so precious together,
We have grown - we have grown,
Although our love is still special,
Let's take our chance and fly away somewhere alone.
SADLY THEY NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO TAKE THAT TRIP. HE WAS MURDERED LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER RECORDING THIS SONG

SONG 1000... Mission by The Fresnels
On January 4th 2004 Songtime officially started
with the song “One Two Buckle My Shoe” by Tony Chestnut. Songtime had been going for some time even
before that, but had not been officially recorded. At that time I would hand type each song into
Yahoo messenger from my desk at work as the Executive Secretary at the USC
school of theater. Initially, the
protocol for songtime was more complicated and required two insightful comments
for each song provided. This proved to
be far far beyond the capabilities of Berv.
So gradually, the protocol diminished until the only rule of
songtime was one comment for each song
given. A new song could not be given
until a comment was made. There was a period of time when Ryan as the only one responding to songs. Then a full year without any song. Songtime is
now posted here on the Pirate Aggro blog with a link to the actual song. Even with this convenience Berv struggles. Dan has joined the fight and easily makes insightful comments.
A lot of water has gone under the bridge since that first
song more than twelve years ago. We were
all young men then who had just launched with everything in front of us. Now we are all well ensconced in middle age and
in mid-career. All of us have endured
rough seas. All have experienced
joy. Songtime, really, is a musical
record of that time.
Today I post the 1000th song. Berv has chosen “Mission” by the
Fresnels. The song holds great
significance for all. It represents
endings and beginnings. Will Songtime
continue? Who knows. Perhaps in 12 more years when we are in our
mid 50s I will write another message celebrating the 2000th
song. The kids will be mostly grown and
retirement will be in view. Or perhaps
it will simply peater out. We shall see.
So here it is…. Song 1000.
You say its time for leaving
Time to close the show
In our heart we know its right
But we don't want you to go
This song goes out to you
No matter where you are
We're all thinking of you
We stare at the same star
You mean the world to me
You mean the world to me
But it wont be that bad
Two years will come and go
We'll be waiting here for you
To open another show

Somethin' Bad by Miranda Lambert
Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Pulled up to the church but I got so nervous
Had to back it on up, couldn’t make it to the service
Grabbed all the cash underneath my mattress
Got a real good feelin’ something bad about to happen
Ran into a girl in a pretty white dress
Rolled down a window, where you heading to next?
Said I’m heading to the bar with my money out the mattress
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen…
Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning’ don’t know what happened
Whoa… Something bad
Whoa… Something bad
Now me and that girl that I met on the street
We’re rollin’ down the road, down to New Orleans
Got a full tank of gas and the money out the mattress
Got a real good feelin’ something bad about to happen
Bout to tear it up down in New Orleans
Just like a real-life Thelma & Louise
If the cops catch up, they’re gonna call it Kidnapping
Got a real good feelin’ something bad about to happen
Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning’ don’t know what happened
Whoa… Something bad
Whoa… Something bad
Stand on the bar, stomp your feet, start clapping
Got a real good feeling something bad about to happen
Now the drinks keep coming, throw my head back laughing
Wake up in the morning’ don’t know what happened

Fireball by Pitbull
Mr. Worldwide to infinity
You know the roof on fire
We gon' boogie oogie oogie, jiggle, wiggle and dance
Like the roof on fire
We gon' drink drinks and take shots until we fall out
Like the roof on fire
Now baby get your booty naked, take off all your clothes,
And light the roof on fire
Tell her, tell her baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
I'm on fire

Or should I say, I saw, I conquered, I came
They say the chico on fire and he no liar
While y'all slippin' he runnin' the game
Now big bang boogie
Get that kitty little noogie
In a nice nice little shade
I gave Suzie a little pat up on the booty
And she turned around and said
Walk this way
I was born in a flame
Mama said that everyone would know my name
I'm the best (that's right) you've ever had (that's right)
If you think I'm burning out, I never am
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Fireball
Fireball
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But I don't care what y'all say
'Cause as the world turns, y'all boys gonna learn
That this chico right here don't play
That boy's from the bottom, bottom of the map
M.I.A. U.S.A.
I gave Suzie a little pat up on the booty
And she turned around and said
Walk this way

Mama said that everyone would know my name

I'm on fire
Fireball
Fireball
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But I don't care what y'all say
'Cause as the world turns, y'all boys gonna learn
That this chico right here don't play
That boy's from the bottom, bottom of the map
M.I.A. U.S.A.
I gave Suzie a little pat up on the booty
And she turned around and said
Walk this way
I was born in a flame
Mama said that everyone would know my name
I'm the best (that's right) you've ever had (that's right)
If you think I'm burning out, I never am
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Fireball
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
We're taking it
We're taking it
We're taking it down
Now we're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
We're bringing it
We're bringing it
We're bringing it back
Fireball

Tell her baby baby baby baby
I'm on fire
I tell her baby baby baby
I'm a fireball

Love and Mercy by Brian Wilson
I dedicate todays song in memory of Gato, my friend and my dog, who left this world on Thursday. I feel his absence as a physical sensation. Love and mercy. It is exactly what Gato gave.
I was sittin' in a crummy movie
With my hands on my chin
All the violence that occurs
Seems like we never win
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was lying in my room
And the news came on TV
A lotta people out there hurtin'
And it really scares me
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was standing in a bar
And watching all the people there
Oh, the loneliness in this world
Well it's just not fair
Hey, love and mercy, that's what we need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy tonight
Love and mercy tonight
SOMEHOW THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF YOU GATO AND YOUR HEART OF GOLD
I was sittin' in a crummy movie
With my hands on my chin
All the violence that occurs
Seems like we never win
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was lying in my room
And the news came on TV
A lotta people out there hurtin'
And it really scares me
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was standing in a bar
And watching all the people there
Oh, the loneliness in this world
Well it's just not fair
Hey, love and mercy, that's what we need tonight
So love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
Love and mercy, that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy tonight
Love and mercy tonight
SOMEHOW THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF YOU GATO AND YOUR HEART OF GOLD
