1. "Wayward Son"

"Wayward Son" by Kansas

Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

...Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know

[NightTrain]

6. "Death on Two Legs", by Queen

on the "A Night at the Opera" CD:

You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You’ve taken all my money
And you want more
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies
Who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs
You’re tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You’ve never had a heart of your own
Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry
You’re just an old barrow boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me?
Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good are you satisfied?
Do you feel like suicide?
(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?

You talk like a big business tycoon
You’re just a hot air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You’re just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease
You’re the king of the ’sleaze’
Put your money where your mouth is
Mister know-all
Was the fin on your back
Part of the deal? (shark)
Death on two legs
You’re tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You’ve never had a heart (you never did) of your own
(right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You’re a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good

9. A song that describes a hopeless wretch, a complete loser

writhing with futility in the grip of the realization that everything he believed about himself was false ...

"In the shuffling madess
Of the locomotive breath,
Runs the all - time loser,
Headlong to his death.
He feels the piston scraping -
Steam breaking on his brow -
Old Charlie stole the handle and
The train won't stop going -
No way to slow down.
He sees his children jumping off
At the stations - one by one.
His woman and his best friend -
In bed and having fun.
He's crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees -
Old Charlie stole the handle and
The train won't stop going -
No way to slow down.
He hears the silence howling -
Catches angels as they fall.
And the all - time winner
Has got him by the balls.
He picks up Gideons Bible -
Open at page one -
Old Charlie stole the handle and
The train won't stop going -
No way to slow down."

Locomotive Breath -- Jethro Tull

11. I have one for his last day...

'Thank God and Greyhound (You're Gone)' by Roy 'Hee Haww' Clark

THANK GOD AND GREYHOUND
Roy Clark


I've made a small fortune, and you've squandered it all.
You've shamed me till I feel about one inch tall.
But I thought I loved you, and I hoped you would change,
so I gritted my teeth and didn't complain.

Now you've come to me with a simple goodbye.
You tell me you're leaving, but you won't tell me why.
We're here at the station and you're getting on.
And all I can think of is.........

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
I didn't know how much longer I could go on,
watching you take the respect out of me,
watching you make a total wreck out of me.
That big diesel motor is a playing my song.

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
That load on my mind got lighter when you got on.
That shiney old bus is a beautiful sight,
with the black smoke rolling up around the tail lights.
It may sound kinda cruel, but I've been silent too long:

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Some things don't fit--I dont 'love' him; I won't be wondering why he's leaving either.

12. Definately: Do the Evolution - Pearl Jam

Unfortunately, I can't find a good copy of the lyrics that doesn't have at least one obvious error.

[OhioStateProgressive]

13. I think Pink Floyds "Money" should...just the beginning part

The cash registers and drum beat from change rattling around, since GWB is a money loving whore.

Other than that I think Pearl Jams newish song 'Bush Leaguer' would also piss off alot of republicans

[JohnOneillsMemory]

14. Prince's '1999'-"Gonna party like it's 1999" bfore this misadmin. happened

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

15. "I'm Too Sexy For My Shirt" (?) (er flightsuit)

If he does any more NASCAR racing suit appearances or flightsuit appearances strolling down the flight deck, he may just discover a new profession as a runway model:

I'm too sexy for my shirt too sexy for my shirt
So sexy it hurts
And I'm too sexy for Milan too sexy for Milan
New York and Japan
And I'm too sexy for your party
Too sexy for your party
No way I'm disco dancing

I'm a model you know what I mean
And I do my little turn on the catwalk
Yeah on the catwalk on the catwalk yeah
I do my little turn on the catwalk

17. They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa! . . .

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa
To the funny farm,
Where life is beautiful
All the time
And I'll be happy to see
Those nice young men
Iin their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!!!
