Do you ever find yourself talking back to the people on tv???
Well I do that all the time...
Here's a few one-liners that the tv made me say now and then...


Song Lyric Gems...

i hear a spanish guitar
i see you dancing
it's been a long time
since i've wondered how you are
i've been off living my life
i've had my own share of goodbyes
and dealings with the afterlife
i'm always looking 'round the bend
while living day to day
in case today's the day i might transcend
today i'm glancing at the past
to take a look at you
i did not know that it would be my last

i hear the wind blow through the pines
i'm far away from city life
and time has distanced all those times
my views are clouds and sky and soaring timberlines
i seek the solace of the mountains
and of nature intertwined

but i hear a spanish guitar...
i hear a spanish guitar...

Virgil Spence has got a 19 inch Hitachi
and many demons lingering.
Friday night he pulled a gun to change the channel,
something that he picked up from The King.
His wife remembers well the man she knew.
Seems the dreams she had have all turned black and blue.
She's wasted years, no time for tears.
'Cos there's another chance and someday soon,
shining like the Alabama moon.
She's looking for the Promised Land,
out beyond the lights of Birmingham.

- Amanda Marshall, "Birmingham"
