..at the enda the line.

Hoo-wee! That Dylan sure can right 'em, eh!


..at the enda the line.


Damn that's a fine tune.

But me name ain't dylan, its Non-groupy#2

de, dum, di la la la de diddle do di,
dum, de la, la la la,
dubi dubi do, do

"The End of the Line" wasn't Dylan, or at least not Dylan alone. It was the Wilburries. I think that song was mostly Harrison and Petty. Dylan did do "Tweeter and the Monkey Man".

Sittin on the dock of the bay in nutbush city limits
with my girl, thinking she's more than a number in my little red-book,
and the things we said today, what's goin' on ? She said she said.

I saw the girl of my best friend and like sister and brother we waved to each other,
walk on by was my prayer,

Lonely teardrops, the tears of a clown, all day and all of the night,
smells of teen spirit, since you've been gone,
close to the edge, needing oxygen, between the gutter and the stars,

In my life, I'm between insects and angels, my english rose, (she is) leaving, and so the story goes, the death of a clown.

Thats so man
hash-

Dig!

just feel that groove -joint Now that I can really dig man,

*passes out?

If Harlequin keeps this up we may actually have to record something.

Yes, the Travellin Wilbury's! Full points. Go to the head of the class. But did no one see the antecedent previously referenced about the clang clang trolley, ding ding bell, and riding to the 'end of the line'? See! There woulda been bonus points for that. Stay sharp now, there'll be more snap quizzes.

peace

hey, hey! We'll have no honetsty in this thread, thank you very much!

But what's the fun in that?

i cant watch
the rocket launch
the trophy wives
of the astronauts
amd i cant listen
to their words
because i like
... ... BIRDS

If your small
and on a search
I've got a feeder
for you to perch on

officially the best song ever written

I'm actually wondering why no one has ever tried to write a hit song using the titles of other peoples tunes


Is waiting for the ghost train to heartbreak hotel

Is that what you did above?

ignore me then

Ignore who?

Uncle Heavy's claim of 'best song ever written' must surely not be ignored. I'll challenbge him on it if no one else will/

Hey you. Why didn't you say it was the best song ever 'unwritten'? It needs a little work yet methinks ..but only fools and generals judge unfinished work.

Comparing Generals to fools is an insult to fools everywhere, and I take it personally! Take it back!
