Fly

"Step into my parlor" said the spider to the fly.

old kids story

Spider

There was an old lady that swallowed a spider
That wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed the fly
Perhaps she'll die

I haven't a clue who sang this I just remember it from my childhood. The old lady goes on to eat a bird, cat, dog.....a horse then she dies. She perhaps should have chosen the vegetarian option.

ROFL - it's good to know we all share some common childhood stories!

There

There wasn’t a breath in that land of death as I hurried horror driven.
With a corpse half hid that I couldn’t get rid, because of a promise given.
It was lashed to the sleigh and it seemed to say, “you may tax your brawn and brains,
But you promised true, and it’s up to you to cremate those last remains.”

From the Cremation of Sam McGee

I

I could stay awake,
Just to hear you breathin'.
Watch you smile while you are sleepin',
While you're far away,
And dreamin'.
I could spend my life in this sweet surender.
I could stay lost in this moment forever.
Where a moment spent with you,
Is a moment I treasure.

Aerosmith
I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing

Awake

Country Skies (I don’t know the author - it's a favorite of one of my friends.)

I dreamed my suitor would be tall
A romeo, who would enthrone
Me as his Juliet
Enhance my very being with his own.
I visualized his classic look,
His polished personality.
Who, like the figures in a book
Would make life beautiful for me.
Yet, I was kissed awake by one
Who wore a comfortable face,
Who spoke his words of love and sun
With unassuming split-rail grace.
The man I wed has country skies
And laughing meadows in his eyes.

me

nobody love me
nobody cares
nobody picks me
peaches and pears

I can see through you.
See your true colors.
Cuz' inside you're ugly.
Ugly like me.

Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love...

Sky

And I will sail my vessle,
Till' the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the winds,
These waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination,
If I never try.
So I will sail my vessle,
Till' the river runs dry.

Garth Brooks
The River

Bird

You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never ever fade
You're lovely but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true

I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is, I don't know where my home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is, I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

I'm like a bird......Nelly Furtado

Love

The Lost Love by William Wordsworth

She dwelt among the untrodden ways
Beside the springs of Dove,
A maid whom there were none to praise
And very few to love.
A violet by a mossy stone
Half-hidden from the eye.
Fair as a star, when only one
Is shining in the sky.
She lived unknown, and few could know
When Lucy ceased to be,
But she is in her grave, and oh,
The difference to me.

WHEN

Is Christ just a name that you
read in a book, when you were in school

Would you like to see the Pope
on the end of a rope,
do you think he's a fool


~Black Sabbath~

Christ

Jesus Christ, Fanny Bryce, Gangis Khan and
on to H.G. Wells .....
And wept when it was all done, for being done too soon,
for being done too soon

(sorry -- in the middle is just a lot more historic names)

Neil Diamond - Done Too Soon

IS

Well I beat the drum
and hold the phone
the sun came out today
we're born again
there's new grass on the field

Just rounding third and heading for home
it's a brown eyed handsome man
anyone can understand the way I feel

Well put me in cold
I'm ready to play today
Put me in cold
I'm ready to play today
Look at me, I can be centerfield

Well I spent some time with the Mudville Nine
watching it from the bridge
You know I took my lumps when the
Mighty Casey struck out

So Say Hey Willie and Holy Cow
And Joe DiMaggio
Gonna say it ain't so
you know the time is now


Well put me in cold
I'm ready to play today
Put me in cold
I'm ready to play today
Look at me, I can be centerfield

I've got a beat up glove
and a home made bat
and a brand new pair of shoes

You know I think it's time
to give this game a ride
Just to hit the ball and
touch the wall
a moment in the sun
it's a moment you can tell anyone about

Well put me in coach
I'm ready to play today
Put me in coach
I'm ready to play today
Look at me, gotta be centerfield

Well put me in coach
I'm ready to play today
Put me in coach
I'm ready to play today
Look at me, gotta be centerfield

with deep long french kisses

roxy

She stands before you naked
You can see it, you can taste it
But she comes to you
Light as the breeze
You can drink or you can nurse it
It don't matter how you worship
As long as you're
Down on your knees

So I knelt there at the delta
At the alpha and the omega
At the cradle of the river
And the seas
And like a blessing come from heaven,
For something like a second,
I was healed, and my heart
Was at ease

O baby I waited
So long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh-something like this

And you're weak and you're harmless
And you're sleeping in your harness
And the wind going wild
In the trees
And it's not exactly prison
But you'll never be forgiven
For whatever you've done
With the keys

O baby I waited
So long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh-something like this

It's dark and it's snowing
Oh my love I must be going
The river is starting to freeze
And I'm sick of pretending
I'm broken from bending
I've lived too long
On my knees
And she dances so graceful
And your heart's hard and hateful
And she's naked
But that's just a tease
And you turn in disgust
From your hatred and from your love
And she comes to you
Light as the breeze

O baby I waited
So long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh-something like this

There's blood on every bracelet
You can see it, you can taste it
And it's please baby
Please baby please
And she says, drink deeply, pilgrim
But don't forget there's still a woman
Beneath this
Resplendent chemise

So I knelt there at the delta
At the alpha and the omega
I knelt there
Like one who believes
And like a blessing come from heaven
For something like a second
I was cured, and my heart
Was at ease

O baby I waited
So long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh-something like this

Light As The Breeze-Billy Joel
