And when Monday comes 'round, there's a high, lonesome sound
And she follows you down for the kill
And a white, blinding light makes it all seem so right
And you feel like the king of the hill
 
“Leave the sinking ship behind” in Up Around the Bend by CCR.

I heard that song during my morning commute to the last day of my last job. I’m not one for dogging on previous employers. Lots of good opportunity came out of working there too. My wife found a local job. Her co worker told us about our house. We have met some great people we are glad to call neighbors. We conned some friends into moving down here a few miles away, and a previous co worker told me about my GSD’s breeder as his son has his full brother and a half brother.

But man, work was sloooooow. I really feared for my employment. I’m friends with a few people there yet and it’s still slow at nearly a year later. Who would have thunk orthopedic manufacturing would have gone slow or at least foreseen the slowness.

Ted Nugent - " Queen Of The Forest " .

You mess up when she's angry
Cause she can level your town
When she throws a temper-tantrum
It's like the sky is falling down

 
A second of reflection
Can take you to the moon
The slightest hesitation
Can bring you down in flames


A single spark of passion
Can change a man forever
A moment in a lifetime
Is all it takes to break him

You ever (had to if you know this one) heard the song Silver Paper? I had a few MOUNTAIN albums way back. To me the finest one (recorded and played) was the double LIVE MOUNTAIN Twin Peaks that was recorded on a tour they did in Japan. Its got some of the best songs + it is before Felix Pappalardi was offed by his own wife! YIKES!

Now when I was just a little boy
Standin to my daddy's knee
My poppa said son don;t let the man get you
Do what he done to me
Cause he'll get you
Cause he'll get you now,now
I can remember the 4th of July
Running thru the backwood bare
And I can still my old hound dog barking
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
 


I'm at home where my coat's hanging,
I'm a shepherd of raising sun
I believe and trust in my land,
I control, I am in charge of
Everyones future, red button is mine

Miss the times when I was roaring
in the center of all mankind
I said how they should live your life,
I controlled, I was in charge, now
I think the red storm will rise and destroy us all.

Heat in the center, destruction preventer
If you release one, you release 'em all
You can't defend Her, kneel down and surrender
Your end is at hand, if they blow

If you go and have their way now,
you will never have your choice
Catch a breath of air in your lungs,
it might be your never get to
do it again because this now this is the end, yeah!

Oh oh oh

Yesterday I saw a light, moving fast across the sky
Now I see glow, left and right,
Stars are falling down tonight, I fear...
And the pouring rain, eating my green grass,
leaving a stain
Never healing back to be the same

Now tell me who won here tonight
The price, of winning worthless fight
We'll make the same mistakes again
Unless, this is truly the end

Heat in the center, destruction preventer
If you release one, you release 'em all
You can't defend Her, kneel down and surrender
Your end is at hand, if they blow
 


This is Armageddon

"And I looked, and behold a pale horse:
And his name that sat on him was Death
And Hell followed with him. And power was given
Unto them over the fourth part of the earth,
To kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death,
And with the beasts of the earth".

And then again "I saw and beheld, a black horse;
And he that sat on him had a scythe; And a crown
Was given unto him and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
And there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black
As sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood.

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth,
Even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs,
When she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven
Departed as a scroll when it is rolled together,
And every mountain and island were moved out of their places."
Almighty mountains and rocks, I beg you fall on them.

For the great day of wrath is coming, and who shall be able to stand?
 
Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor, yeah

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!

Reduced to zero
Sum of mankind
Result of centuries
Humanity's demise
Increased by hatred
Fuelled by fear
Intention resolute
The prophecy foretold
The end is near

Look to the future
Erase the past
Create new existence
Better than the last
World free of contempt
Malice cannot infest
Void of hostility
Constructed with respect

Through the wreckage
Of this land
Ripped apart
By our own hands
Annihilation end of man
As the slaughter overran

Now behold what has been done
Mankind's journey is begun
Continuation eternity
Recreation identity

Reduced to zero
Sum of mankind
Result of centuries
Humanity's demise
Increased by hatred
Fuelled by fear
Intention resolute
The prophecy foretold
The end is near

Rising from the flames
No one else to blame
Devastation all we knew
We stand alone surviving few
 
“Tell me I’m a sinner, I got news for you;
I spoke to God this morning and He don’t like you!”

I Don’t Want to Change the World
Ozzy Osborne
 

Alvin Lee - Ten Years After Band.

Everywhere is freaks and hairies
xxxxxxx and xxxxxxx, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
'Til there are no rich no more?

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money, Monopoly

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
