    And they covered up the sun
    Until the birds had flown away
    And the fishes in the sea
    Had gone to sleep

    Though it’s been a while now
    I still feel so much pain
    Like the knife that cuts you the wound heals
    But the scar, that scar remains.

    The first cut won't hurt at all
    The second only makes you wonder
    The third will have you on your knees
    You start bleeding, I start screaming

    Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,
    And now they are still singing it just because...

    I was working part time in a five and dime
    My boss was Mr. McGee

    Haven't heard that song in 30 years.

    Nice one.

    When you cried I felt so helpless, I just didn't understand.
    How a woman's feelings shouldn't be, the same as any man.
    So we lay there without speaking, there was nothing I could say.
    Then I noticed you were sleeping, so I slowly slipped away.

    And then you're in the man from Mars
    You go out at night, eatin' cars
    You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
    Mercury's and Subaru's
    And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars

    We came in spastic
    Like tameless horses
    We left in plastic
    As numbered corpses
    And we learned fast
    To travel light
    Our arms were heavy
    but our bellies were tight


    In the middle of the night
    I go walking in my sleep
    From the mountains of faith
    To a river so deep


    Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray
    South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio


    I've been walkin' these streets so long
    Singin' the same old song
    I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
    Where hustle's the name of the game

    So I went from day to day, though my life was in a rut.
    Til I thought of what I'll say, which connection I should cut.
    I was feeling part of the scenery,
    I walked right out of the machinery.

    Chained to all the places that he never wished to stay

    He's got this dream about buying some land
    He's gonna give up the booze and the one-night stands
    And then he'll settle down
    In some quiet little town
    And forget about everything


    Oh yeah
    In these days of changing ways
    So called liberated days
    A story comes to mind of a friend of mine


    You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am
    I'll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again
    Winter, spring, summer, or fall
    All you got to do is call and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah


    On the first part of the journey
    I was looking at all the life
    There were plants and birds and rocks and things
    There was sand and hills and rings

    No. Love the killing of Georgie, a young kid, a switchblade knife who did not intend to take his life, he just pushed his luck all little too far that night...

    Mama don't like it the way I comb my hair.
    Papa thinks it crazy with the clothes I wear.
    Took all my records that I play all day...

    Billy Ray was a preacher’s son

    Jaysus I put two lines between each song to show a gap.

    Also surely you recognise at least one of the 4 pretty famous songs.

    It would make for a very interesting song though if you lumped all the lines together. :cool:

    I am not in love, but I am open to persuasion
    East or West, where's the best, for romancing?
