Moonshine

[angie]

I thought about the way he laughed, like he knew a secret. He wore a navy uniform to work and thick-soled shiny boots. I thought about the shininess of those boots. I wondered if Dupont was somehow involved, better living through chemicals. All I knew was every time I thought about his boots it changed my chemistry. I liked his view on the world, cynical, more than a little jaded and really fucking accurate.
He was J.D. Salinger reclusive, fond of cats as opposed to humans and had skipped kindergarten. He said that was the critical misstep in his young life that led to his undoing. Maybe a bit of a lost boy, Peter Pan, someone who saw too much too young, did too many things too young. The dark quiet ones always turned my head and he turned mine.
We were to meet for coffee in Magog, a quiet Quebec town not too far from the Vermont border. He had driven nine hours, surviving on coffee, bad diner food and various mixed tapes. I sat in the café alternately rearranging the salt and pepper shakers and the sugar bowl. I had opted for a black dress, mary-janes and a pink sweater. I thought about him walking through the door, finally able to see him. I was fiddling with a straw wrapper pondering the dining habits of smokers when I looked up to see him walking in. His eyes struck me immediately, blue even from a distance. He gave me a shy smile, my heart lurched forward and two-stepped back.
I smiled and tried to suppress an unnatural noise. He stood at the end of the table. I looked up into his blue eyes, mesmerized. Every drunken high school dance I attended went through my mind and every line from a John Hughes movie.
“Hey.” He coughed.
I wanted to say a million things; they all flew out of my head. “Are those Gap jeans you’re wearing?” I eyed his pants suspiciously.
“Yeah, they are. Are you not gonna let me sit down?” he quizzed.
“Yeah, this time.” I warned. He slid into the booth across from me. “How was your drive?” I sat on my hands to keep from making any sudden wild gestures. I felt vaguely sick and hoped the conversation would drown out my thumping heartbeat. I realized suddenly that I was smiling at him like a savant girl on the lam.
He looked me in the eye, “It was long.” He looked so serious. I felt panic welling up in me. Again the urge to speak rose up yet nothing left my mouth. Too much cooking with aluminium was kicking in.
I cocked my head, “Yeah nine hours is a long time.”
“It wasn’t so bad.” He smiled and my anxiety dropped back to sea level. “I had some pretty good tapes this chick made me.” He flushed. I smiled and relaxed.
“So you wanna have some cawfee?” I tried to imitate his eastern accent. He laughed and shook his head.
“Nah, I’ve had loads of coffee. Too much actually.”
“You tired?” I realized how long he’d been on the road. Polite to offer an early night.
“Yeah, I wouldn’t mind layin’ down.” He paused, “With you.” He looked at me for a response. I smiled a slow smile and studied him. His left hand turned his Zippo lighter over and over. The Zippo I heard over the phone, time after time, lighting his Camel Lights. I had fetishized it. The cold click of the lighter snapping shut sent a spark straight to my pussy. It was an involuntary action, a Pavlov’s dog experiment long distance. He glanced at his Zippo. “You want a cigarette angeee?” He was playing.
I looked at him amused, “Yeah, let’s go have a cigarette.”
We went outside and started to walk towards the lake. It was darker than an urban area. We were in the Eastern Townships, cottage country, the lack of street lighting allowed the night sky to shine brighter than the city skies we lived under. We walked slowly along a stretch of gravel road. The moon shimmered on the water. I thought of the L7 song he had put on the first CD he had made me, “Moonshine.”

I took a walk in the park
It was scary and dark
I looked up at the moon
And I wasn’t afraid
I wasn’t afraid

She’s so bright tonight
Shining through the trees
She’s glowing on you
Take a walk with me
You can walk with me in the
Moonshine

If you look at the moon
When I look at the moon
We’re not far away
We’re connected by the moon
Looking at the moon
In the moonshine…


We meandered along the road, the sound of the gravel crunching under our feet. I kicked at a stone and stopped walking. “Yeah, you were right, we are connected by the moon.”
He stopped and turned to me. “Moonshine, that song was my message to you, my secret code to you. Even though you couldn’t talk to me or contact me. I wanted to tell you I was thinking about you.” He coughed and looked down.
“That just about saved my life. I was a stupid girl, doing stupid things and I took a chance.” I wasn’t proud, just truthful.
“I’m glad you did.” He nodded.
“Yeah?” I sucked my breath in.
“Yeah, cause I think you’re a cool girl.”
I twisted my foot in silent delight. “That’s good. I was kinda hoping for a ring pop.” The wind blew my hair around my face and I pushed it aside. No matter how together I tried to be I always ended up looking dishevelled. He pulled a piece of hair stuck to my lip glossed mouth away.
“I’ve got a ring pop for you Angie. I told you I was gonna give you one.” He took my hand and placed it in between his legs.
“Aw, you do like me honey.” I laughed.
“Yeah, I like you. You got a problem with that?” He tried to be tough.
“Nah, I don’t have a problem with that. I think I kinda like it.” I turned my body into his.
“Good, then let’s go to bed, so I can give you my ring pop.” He gave me a wicked grin. I stared at his mouth and willed him to kiss me under the bright, sharp starlight.
“Okay.” I said quietly. We held hands on the walk back to his car and I wondered about life, love, karma, kismet and flat-out luck.
His hotel room was nice, done with the blues and yellows of France’s Provence region. There was a table and two retro-style chairs near a window. I sat down and took a cigarette out of my purse. He flipped his Zippo out.
I hesitated, “You’re quick with a light.” I leaned in and watched the end blaze orange. He snapped it shut deliberately. I shifted in my seat and crossed my legs
“Does that make you uncomfortable?” He sat back and lit his own cigarette, dragging hard on it. I noticed the way he held his cigarette was the polar opposite of me, His arms, the way he sat, his carriage, all of it butch. I had the sudden urge to get on my knees and pull at his belt buckle. I thought about geometry and right angles instead.
I answered his question. “Does it make me uncomfortable? A little bit.” My eyes flitted about the room nervously.
“You don’t need to be nervous. It’s ok.” He smiled a genuine smile.
“I just have a really, really big crush on you and it’s even worse, no wait, make that, better, in person.” I was literally wringing my hands.
“A crush? You have a crush on me?” He was mulling this over as if just receiving this news for the first time. “I thought you had more than a crush. I don’t know if I’ve ever driven this far for a crush.” He placed his finger on his Zippo.
“Uh, yeah, about that crush. I was actually looking for something a little more permanent. I was hoping to apply for the position of your wife, if you’re hiring right now.” I placed my hands on my knees and sat up straight.
“Really? It just so happens I’ve got an opening for a secretary slash wife. The pay is lousy but the benefits aren’t too bad. You realize there’s a list of wifely duties that accompany that uh, position.” I tried to keep a straight face. He stood up and went over to the bed and sat down. “C’mere.” He patted the bed.
Like a Stepford Wife I got up and sat down beside him. “What exactly are my wifely duties?” I asked smiling nervously. He stared at my mouth.
“The first one is to let me kiss you.” And with that he leaned forward and kissed me, gently then more firmly, pushing his tongue into my mouth. He tasted like his vices: cigarettes and coffee.
I pulled away and said softly, “Wow, that’s kind of dreamy.” I smiled as my heart made up it’s own new rhythm.
“Dreamy huh? That’s sweet.” He kissed me again, harder this time, his hand pushing my sweater aside, squeezing my breasts. “I like your sweater.” He murmured. His other hand slid up my leg and under my skirt. I pulled away.
“Honey, what’re you doing?” I feigned shock.
“I won’t hurt you, I promise.” He squeezed my hand and smiled.
“Not even a little bit huh?” I bartered.
“Well maybe a little bit.” He leaned in and whispered in my ear, “Cause I think you like it that way sometimes.” He glanced at me and flashed me a smile. He started to undo the buttons on the front of my dress, exposing my bra, black with pink ribbon. “Nice bra, pink and black, sexy.” He smiled and leaned in to kiss my breasts. I touched the back of his closely shaved head. I started to count upward from one to focus. He pulled my breasts out and gave a low whistle. “Nice honey, very nice, you are honeywhite.” He began to suck on my nipple, biting lightly. “You wanna go parking baby?”
I held his head as he looked up at me, “Yeah, I wanna go parking with you.” He smiled and kissed me. I lost count of my numbers.
“I think you should put your cock right here.” I pointed to the space between my breasts.
He nodded, “Yeah, I think that’s a good idea.” He pulled the top of my dress down and pushed me back on the bed. I took my bra off and pushed my tits together, doing my best porn star imitation. I pinched my nipples and stared at him. I could feel the heat vibrating from my pussy. He kneeled above me and unzipped his jeans. I sat up suddenly.
“I want your cock in my mouth first.” I smiled sweetly.
He looked surprised then pleased, “Whatever way you want it.”
I sat up. “Lay down honey, I want you to watch your cock go in and out of my mouth.” I pushed the pillows up to the top of the bed. He lay back with his hands behind his head.
“Yeah, I wanna watch. I want a show.” He grinned. “Can I smoke while you do it?” I shot him a look. “Whoa, I’m just joking. When I fuck you in the ass, that’s when I smoke.”
I gave him a petulant look, “No honey, that’s when I smoke. Do you wanna get lucky or not?” I hesitated.
“Hey honey, just suck my cock.” Tough guy was back.
“Maybe.” I teased. I touched his cock carefully, studying it. “I like your cock.” I finally announced.
“Well it likes you too.” He chuckled. “Don’t think about it honey, just suck it.” He pushed my head down. I licked the tip of his cock for a minute, slowly, watching his face. I dragged my tongue down the length of his shaft, wrapping my mouth around him. I smiled then opened my mouth to take the entire length of his cock in one go. I could read his pinball eyes: TILT. He frowned and shifted slightly. I pulled my head up, saliva connecting my mouth to the end of his cock. “Fuck.” He whispered. I let spit drop from my mouth as I worked the length of his shaft, up, down, twist and pull. His mouth hung open.
“You okay? You don’t mind me spitting on your cock do you? Maybe I should have asked.” I continued to stroke him. His eyes went from my face to my hand.
“Nah, you don’t have to ask, whatever you want to do, just do it.” He growled.
“Nike proponent. Now I’m going to have to hurt you.” I scowled.
“No really honey, just suck my cock.” He pushed my head back down and wound his fingers through my hair. “Yeah, deep throat it baby. Take it all in.” I felt his cock hit the back of my throat. He held my head there, pushing a little to make me struggle. I came up for air and looked at him while stroking his cock again. “Your lipstick is smudged.” He wiped my mouth with the palm of his hand. He pulled me up to his mouth and kissed me roughly. “I wanna fuck you.” He said in my ear.
“Just do it.” I whispered and closed my eyes. I was struggling to stay in my body. Without another word he pushed my skirt up.
“Nice garter belt. I’ll do my best and try not to rip your stockings but I can’t make any promises. Then again, I kinda like the look of ripped stockings.” He gave me an angelic smile and thrust his fingers under my panties and into my soaking wet pussy. I gasped.
“Shhh… quiet.” He lowered his voice, “You’re so wet. How’d that happen?” He looked at me seriously. I felt his fingers pushing deeper up into me. I squirmed.
“You do that to me. You make me crazy.” My heart was doing double-time. I pulled my legs together instinctively.
“No, no, no, open your legs, relax.” He pulled his fingers out of me and dragged them along my thighs leaving a trail of wetness. “Open your mouth.” I obliged. He slid his fingers in. I sucked automatically. He pushed a third finger, then a fourth into my mouth. I held his wrist and sucked. He watched transfixed. “Fucking sexy.” He pulled his fingers out and slammed his mouth down on mine. His hands squeezed my tits. “You taste good, so good.” He said biting my neck.
Heat flooded my body, “Thank you.” My response was almost inaudible.
He pushed my skirt up even higher and pulled my panties to the side. “Now, “ he said, “now I’m going to fuck you.” He positioned himself over me and leaned back on his heels. I spread my legs and watched him, biting my lip. He pushed the head of his cock into me slowly, watching me for a response. I arched my back and inhaled as I felt him enter. I pulled my legs back to allow him to enter me fully. I gasped and he pushed his way in.
“I think it’s too big, your cock.” I pushed against the bed, trying to scoot up higher, trying to get away from the entire length of his eight-inches.
“No, no, honey. I won’t hurt you. Relax. I’ll fuck you slow.” He spoke quietly while he slowly slid in and out of me. He watched his cock disappear into my pussy. I breathed out and adjusted to try and take his length. “I told you, I’m only gonna make it hurt a little.” He smiled and kissed my breasts.
“Okay.” I nodded and felt his rhythm inside of me.
“Good girl.” He soothed. And with those words a shot went through me. I tightened my pussy around his cock. Now I was fully, completely engaged. I was going to the moon tonight.
“Fuck me, I can take it.” I pulled his hips hard into mine to make my point.
“You sure?” He raised an eyebrow, but increased his speed slightly.
“Yeah, I’m sure. Give it to me.” I gripped his shoulders, pressing my nails into his skin.
“Anything you want baby. Let me get your pretty dress all messy.” He began to slam into me, hard. I matched his rhythm and tempo. I pushed against the headboard, coming down on his cock as he bucked into me. He put my legs over his shoulders and fucked me until my tits bounced in time with his thrusts, my mouth went slack and I saw stars in my eyes, the same stars I’d seen in the moonlit sky earlier.
I had to tell him, “Hey res…”
He continued to pump, “Yeah honey?” he grunted.
“If you keep fucking me like that you’re gonna make me come.” I warned.
“Is that right?” He pumped harder and faster. I felt my body ride the wave. I was on the edge and I didn’t really want to go over but the payoff was going to be too good. I gave in and told him all about it. Let it blurt. White light, white heat coming down on me.
“Right fucking now, honey, right now….” I groaned. “Yeah, yeah, yeah …I want your moonshine all over me. Come in my cunt, cause I’m coming all over your cock right now.” My hands flew to my mouth to try to stop my words but it was too late, I had already let him know. We moved in tandem, finishing the race, him at the finish line only seconds after, his moonshine finally spent on me.

[angie]

You run at a hundred clicks
In the calmest of ways
I found your frequency
Down high
Reaching up
To pull you low
Stay
That way
Like a good
Boy

[resqx]

[angie]

Blue snow static
Electric surge
Your voice
Trips my chemistry
Like a roman candle
At a bad block party
You go off
And I go to the edge
Your anger
My charge
My sex

[resqx]

[angie]

I'll wear that dress
With the bow
And an apron too
I'll make you pineapple
Upside down cake
Serve it to you
Sickly sweet
Choking on love's dessert
We'll have a green lawn
Greener than the jello ring
I make
To serve to you
Soft candy
Infusing
Sugar high
I'll call you Clause
And you'll call me Sunny
And we'll eat dessert
Together
Every night
Until someone overdoses
On love's dessert

The Masses Are Asses - L7

I still get angry
I still get sad
And the losers still drive me mad
And I wonder
If I have anything to say anymore
Oh yeah I wonder if i have anything to say
Except the masses are asses
They're all asses

Things still piss me off
And things still make me cry
Poetry's in motion but not in mind
Poetry's in motion but not in my mind
Poetic justice will come in time
And I just have to laugh
I just have to laugh
Because the masses are asses
We're all asses
Masses are asses every day
Masses are asses in every way
Woo woo

Spooky Girlfriend
Elvis Costello


I want a girl to make a mess
To do no wrong she must confess
And then perhaps hitch up her dress
'Cos when the flashbulbs explode
She's such a sensitive soul...

I want a girl who is helpless and frail
Who won't pull on my ponytail
I want a girl who has no past
She's made up now
But that won't last
'Cos when she sits on my knee
And then she whispers to me

"Can't you see
I could be
I could be
Your spooky girlfriend"

The broken toys are all scattered in the attic
Newspapers play with the words of the fanatic
While the greeting cards are your most poetic lyric
And the flat champagne is sweet sugar syrup

I want to paint you with glitter and with dirt
Picture you wit innocence and hurt
The shutter closes
Exposes the shot
she says, "Are you looking up my skirt?"
When you say "No"
She says "Why not?"

I want a girl to turn my screw
To wind my watch, to buckle my shoe
And if she won't her mother will do
But when she does as she's told
We'll all turn platinum and gold

But when she sits on my knee
I hear her whispers to me
"Can't you see?
"I could be your spooky girlfriend"

Extraordinary ~~ Liz Phair

You think that I go home at night
Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write
To you, to make you love me

Yeah, I drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess

See me jump through hoops for you
You stand there watching me performing
What exactly do you do?
Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?
Who the hell are you?

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary
Average every day sane psycho
Supergoddess
Average every day sane psycho

Average every day sane psycho

Genius of Love ~~ Tom Tom Club


-'What you gonna do when you get out of jail?'
"I'm gonna have some fun"
-'What do you consider fun?'
"Fun, Nasty Fun."

I'm in heaven
With my boyfriend, My laughing boyfriend
There's no beginning and there is no end
Time isn't present in that dimension
He'll take my arm
When we're walkin', rolling and rocking
It's one time I'm glad I'm not a man
Feels like I'm dreaming, When I'm not sleeping

All that weekend
Boyfriend was missing
I surely miss him
Having him hold me in his warm arms
We went insane when we took cocaine.

Stepping in a rhythm to a Kurtis Blow
Who needs to think when your feet just go
With a hiditihi and a hipitiho
Who needs to think when your feet just go ...Bohannon Bohannon Bohannon Bohannon
Who needs to think when your feet just go ...Bohannon Bohannon Bohannon Bohannon
James Brown, James Brown
James Brown, James Brown

If you see him
Please remind him, unhappy boyfriend
Well he's the genius of love
He's got a greater depth of feeling
Well he's the genius of love
He's so deep.

Moments of love
'Cause I'll push you back
Harder than your last lover
Who broke your heart
If you push that fist
In my mouth

Free Money ~~ Patti Smith

Every night before I go to sleep
Find a ticket, win a lottery,
Scoop the pearls up from the sea
Cash them in and buy you all the things you need.

Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills go swirling ’round my bed.
I know they’re stolen, but I don’t feel bad.
I take that money, buy you things you never had.

Oh, baby, it would mean so much to me,
Oh, baby, to buy you all the things you need for free.
I’ll buy you a jet plane, baby,
Get you on a higher plane to a jet stream
And take you through the stratosphere
And check out the planets there and then take you down
Deep where it’s hot, hot in arabia, babia, then cool, cold fields of snow
And we’ll roll, dream, roll, dream, roll, roll, dream, dream.
When we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
We’ll dream it, dream it for free, free money,
Free money, free money, free money, free money, free money, free money.

Every night before I go to sleep
Find a ticket, win a lottery.
Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills go swirling ’round my bed.

Oh, baby, it would mean so much to me,
Baby, I know our troubles will be gone.
Oh, I know our troubles will be gone, goin’ gone
If we dream, dream, dream for free.
And when we dream it, when we dream it, when we dream it,
Let’s dream it, we’ll dream it for free, free money,
Free money, free money, free money, x7
Free money, free money, free money, free.

Howard Jones - No One Is To Blame

you can look at the menu, but you just can't eat
you can feel the cushion, but you can't have a seat
you can dip your foot in the pool, but you can't have a swim
you can feel the punishment, but you can't commit the sin
and you want her, and she wants you
we want everyone
and you want her and she wants you
no one, no one, no one ever is to blame

you can build a mansion, but you just can't live in it
you're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win
some break the rules, and let you cut the cost
the insecurity is the thing that won't get lost
and you want her, and she wants you
we want everyone
and you want her, and she wants you
no one, no one, no one ever is to blame

you can see the summit but you can't reach it
its the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit
doctor says you're cured but you still feel the pain
aspirations in the clouds makes your hopes go down the drain
and you want her, and she wants you
we want everyone
and you want her, and she wants you
no one, no one, no one ever is to blame
No one ever is to blame
No one ever is to blame

Red Vines ~~ Aimee Mann


They’re all still on their honeymoon
Just read the dialogue balloon
Everyone loves you--
Why should they not?
And I’m the only one who knows
That disneyland’s about to close
I don’t suppose you’d give it a shot
Knowing all that you’ve got

Are cigarettes and red vines
Just close your eyes, ’cause, baby--
You never do know
And I’ll be on the sidelines,
With my hands tied,
Watching the show

Well, it’s always fun and games until
It’s clear you haven’t got the skill
In keeping the gag from going too far
So you’re running ’round the parking lot
’til every lightning bug is caught
Punching some pinholes
In the lid of a jar
While we wait in the car

With cigarettes and red vines
Just close your eyes, ’cause, baby--
You never do know
And I’ll be on the sidelines,
With my hands tied,
Watching the show

And tell me, would it kill you
Would it really spoil everything
If you didn’t blame yourself
Do you know what I mean?

Cigarettes and red vines
Just close your eyes, ’cause,
Baby--
You never do know
And I’ll be on the sidelines,
With my hands tied,
Watching the show
Watching the show

and watch you go

Porcelain ~~ Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Baby I'm afraid of a lot of things
But I aint scared of loving you
Baby I know you're afraid of a lot of things
But don't be scared of love
Cause people will say all kinds of things
That don't mean a damn to me
Cause all I see is what's in front of me
And thats you

Well, I've been dragged all over the place
I've taken hits time just don't erase
And baby I can see you've been fucked with too
But that don't mean your loving days are through
Cause people will say all kinds of things
That don't mean a damn to me
Cause all I see is what's in front of me
And thats you

Well i may be just a fool
But i know were just as cool
And cool kids...
they belong together

Frank Black - I Love Your Brain

He was hurting for the answers
He was serving up the questions
He was searching for a guru he was lucky that he knew you
When I saw your fine physique I was into you like a train
And I love it when you speak you’re so urbane
Oh, I love your brain
Yes, I love your brain
Ooh, I love your brain
I’m gonna say it again
Love your brain
It’s a beautiful brain
I wanna be with your brain
I wanna sleep with your brain

She was looking like a roman
She was cooking it with fire
She was talking right to me
And I couldn’t unglue me
Though I am no duke of earl you are my chatelaine
I love the way the world drives you insane

HookyWooky
Lou Reed

I'm standing with you on your roof
looking at the chemical sky
All purple blue and oranges
some pigeons flying by
The traffic on Canal Street's so noisy
it's a shock
And someone's shooting fireworks or a gun
on the next block

An-an-and, I wanna HookyWooky with you
I wanna HookyWooky with you

The traffic's so noisy it's a shock
sounds like fireworks or a gun on the next block
Ah, HookyWooky with you

Your ex-lover Satchel is here from France
yet another ex
They gather about you like a Mother Superior
all of you still friends, but -
None of my old flames ever talk to me when things
end for me they end
They take your pants, your money, your name
but the song still remains

An-an-and, I wanna HookyWooky with you
Ah-ha-ha-ha, I wanna HookyWooky with you

Then they take your pants, your money, your name
but the song still remains, sayin' -
I wanna HookyWooky with you

You're so civilized it hurts
I guess I could learn a lot, ha-ha...
About people, plants and relationships
how not to get hurt a lot
And each lover I meet up your roof
I wouldn't want to throw him off, mmmmm..
Into the chemical sky, down into the streets to die
under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
And each lover I meet up on your roof
I wouldn't want to throw him off, mmmmm..
Into the chemical sky
under the wheels of a car to die on Canal street

Ah-ah-hi, I wanna, ah, HookyWooky with you
ah-huh, huh-huh-huh-ah
I wanna HookyWooky with you

I wouldn't want to throw him off into the chemical sky
down into the streets to die
Under the wheels of a car on Canal street

Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
HookyWooky
Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
HookyWooky
Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street
Hooky-Hooky-Hooky-Wooky
(Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street)
(Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street)
(Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street)
(Under the wheels of a car on Canal Street)

Gigantic ~~ The Pixies

And this I know
His teeth as white as snow
What a gas it was to see him
Walk her every day
Into a shady place
With her lips she said
She said

Hey Paul, Hey Paul, Hey Paul, let's have a ball [3x]

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love
Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love

Lovely legs there are
What a big black mask
What a hunk of love
Walk her every day into a shady place
He's like the dark, but I'd want him

Hey Paul, Hey Paul, Hey Paul, let's have a ball [3x]

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love
Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love

Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love
Gigantic, gigantic, gigantic
A big big love

Roxy Music - Love Is The Drug

'T ain't no big thing to wait for the bell to ring
't ain't no big thing the toll of the bell.

Aggravated spare for days
I troll down town the redlight place
Jump up bubble up what's in store
Love is the drug and I need to score.

Showing out showing out Hit and run
Boy meets girl where the beat goes on
Stiched up tight can't shake free
Love is the drug got a hook on me
Oh catch that buzz love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh can't you see love is the drug for me.

Late at night I parked my car
staked my place in the singles bar.
Face to face toe to toe
Heart to heart as we hit the floor.

Lumbered up limbo down
The locked embrace stumble round
I say go she say yes
Dim the lights you can guess the rest.

Oh catch the buzz
. . .

Constellation of the Heart ~~ Kate Bush

We take all the telescopes
And we turn them inside out
And we point them away from the big sky
Put your eye right up to the glass, now
And here we’ll find the constellation of the heart

Steer your life by these stars
On the unconditional chance
’tis here where hell and heaven dance
This is the constellation of the heart

We take all the telescopes
And we turn them inside out
And we point them away from the big sky
Put your eye right up to the glass, now
And here we’ll find the constellation of the heart

The constellation of the heart
The constellation of the heart

We take all the telescopes
And we turn them inside out
And we point them away from the big sky
Put your eye right up to the glass, now
And here we’ll find the constellation of the heart

The constellation of the heart
The constellation of the heart

Well we think you’d better wake up capt’n
There’s something happen’n up ahead
We’ve never seen anything like it
We’ve never seen anything like it before

I want a full report
That’s it
What do you mean, that’s it?
That’s all you get
You’d better do something ’bout it
What am I supposed to do about it?
We don’t know, but you can’t run away from it
Maybe you’d better face it
I can’t do that
C’mon face it!
I can’t do that
C’mon, c’mon face it
What am I gonna do?
It is gonna hurt, it is gonna hurt me bad?

Ooh here’s the constellation of the heart

Who said anything about it hurting?
It’s gonna be beautiful
It’s gonna be wonderful
It’s gonna be paradise

(just being alive, it can really hurt...)
Ooh find me the man with the ladder
And he might lift me up to the stars

(without the pain there’d be no learning
Without the hurting we’d never change.)

Oooh and if you see the woman with the key
I hear she’s opening up the doors to heaven
Oh and here comes the man with the stick
He said he’d fish me out of the moon

Ohoh here’s the constellation of the heart
It is the constellation of the heart

Oh yes it is the constellation of the heart

A Girl Like You - Edwin Collins

Ive never known a girl like you before
Now just like in a song from days of yore
Here you come a-knock knocking on my door
Well I've never met a girl like you before

(Guitar Solo)

You give me just a taste so I want more
Now my hands are bleeding and my knees are raw
Cause now you got me crawling, crawling on the floor
And Ive never known a girl like you before

(Another guitar solo)

You made me acknowledge the devil in me
I hope to God I'm talking metaphorically
Hope that I'm talking alegorically
Know that I'm talking about the way I feel
And Ive never known a girl like you before
Never, never, never, never
Never known a girl like you before

This old town's changed so much
Don't feel like I belong
Too many protest singers
Not enough protest songs
And now you've come along
Yes you've come along
And I've never met a girl like you before

Blue Moon Revisited ~~ Cowboy Junkies

I only want to say
That if there is a way
I want my baby back with me
’cause he’s my true love
My only one don’t you see?

And on that fateful day
Perhaps in the new sun of may
My baby walks back into my arms
I’ll keep him beside me
Forever from harm

You see I was afraid
To let my baby stray
I kept him too tightly by my side
And then one sad day
He went away and he died

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

I only want to say
That if there is a way
I want my baby back with me
’cause he’s my true love
My only one don’t you see?

Tom Waits - This One’s from The Heart

As you go out it’s independence day;
But instead I’ll just pour myself a drink.
It’s got to be love, I’ve never felt this way.
Oh baby, this one’s from the heart

The shadows in the road look like a railroad track.
I wonder if he’s (ever) really comin’ back.
The moon’s a yellow stain across the sky.
Oh baby, this one’s from the heart

(maybe) and I’ll go down to the corner and get a racin’ form,
(but) and I should prob’ly wait here by the phone.
And the brakes need adjustment on the convertible
Oh baby, this one’s from the heart

The worm is climbin’ the other color tree
Robin is back against the wall;
Pour myself a double sympathy
Oh baby, this one’s from the heart.

Blondes, brunettes, and redheads put their hammer down
(to put ) don’t pound a cold chisel thru my heart.
But they were nothin’ but apostrophes.
O baby, this one’s from the heart.

I can’t tell, is that a siren or a saxophone?
But the roads get so slipp’ry (when it rains)
I love you more than all these words can ever say
Oh baby, this one’s from the heart.

Girls Talk
Elvis Costello


There are some things you can't cover up with lipstick and powder
I thought I heard you mention my name, can't you talk any louder ?
Don't come any closer, don't come any nearer
My vision of you can't get any clearer
Oh, i just want to hear girls talk
I got a loaded imagination being fired by girls talk
But I can't say the words you want to hear
I suppose you're going to have to play it by ear
Right here and now

Girls talk and they want to know how
Girls talk and they say it's not allowed
Girls talk, if they say that it's so
Don't you think that I know by now

That the word up on everyone's lips
Stick that you're dedicated
Though you may not be an old fashioned girl
You're still going to get dated
Was it really murder ?
Were you just pretending ?
Lately I have heard you are the living end

Girls talk and they wanna know about her
Girls talk, they wanna know if I care
Girls talk and they wanna know where
Girls talk girls talk

Playground Love ~~ Air

I'm a high school lover, and you're my favourite flavour
Love is all, all my soul
You're my Playground Love

Yet my hands are shaking
I feel my body remains, time's no matter, I'm on fire
On the playground, love.

You're the piece of gold the flushes all my soul.
Extra time, on the ground.
You're my Playground Love.

Anytime, anyway,
You're my Playground Love.

Why Can't I? ~~ Liz Phair

Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin' down the street, and I hardly know you
It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you, and we're out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right
And I've got someone waiting too

This is, this is just the beginning
We're already wet, and we're gonna go swimming

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Isn't this the best part of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too

It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn't it be beautiful

Here we are, we're at the beginning
We haven't fucked yet, but > heads spinning

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

I'd love for you to make me wonder
Where it's goin'
I'd love for you to pull me under
Somethin's growin'
for this that we can control
Baby I am dyin'

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Pixies
Lovely Day

At the station, at the border an egression to the exterior law and order
upward plantation
i remember your red dress
like a field full o' poppy
you were making me dreamy
stunned by a love got to do what your head says
could not let it stop me
they got one leaving today
and it's going away
got my feet in the stirrup
it can be kind of banal
but i dream of your red dress
riding down these dry canals
oh baby it's not europe
but i'm sending you money
i'm sending you lots of money
so you can buy a ticket
you will be my martian honey all the day
they got one leaving today
and it's going away.

soon.....

Head ~~ Kirsty Maccoll

You go to my head till I’m losing my mind
Your beautiful words stretch me out on a blanket of sky
I don’t want to come down
No I don’t want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
You go to my head, I dream I am loved
You’re flowing through me like a river of poetry
I don’t want to come down
No I don’t want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes

So keep feeding the fire, I can’t get any higher
Till the night burns with the fire of a thousand stars
You go to my head and I know I’m alive
You could waken the dead with your beautiful mind
I don’t want to come down
No I don’t want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes

I don’t want to come down
No I don’t want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
Just want to stay lost in your eyes

Man Overboard

Man overboard, sinking in a sea of love
Man overboard, he jumped, didn't need a shove
Oh, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance
With what I know (with what I know) he never stood a chance
He gave it all for love
He gave it all for love

Said, lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love
Lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love
Yeah, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance
With what I know (with what I know) he never stood a chance

No! Man overboard
Man overboard
Man overboard
Man overboard
Throw him a line
Man overboard

He gave it all for love
He gave it all for love
He gave it, he gave it all for love
Man overboard
(He gave it)
