Best song, best line, best lyric right now

You're pink, you're young, you're middle-class
They say it doesn't matter
Fifteen blue shirts and womanly hands
You're shooting up the ladder

Your mind is racing like a pro now
Oh my God, it doesn't mean a lot to you
One time, you were a glowing young ruffian
Oh my God, it was a million years ago
 
You can shake your hips
You can seal your lips
I can't make that trip
And all life's fears
Could invade my ears
I can handle it
 
The drunken man is a stupid, self-deluded fallacy
Now f***ed by three dogs:
Bitterness, arrogance and jealousy
 
Yeah...that's a nice line.

And even better…

That's OK! Rose would say
Don't you worry none
We'll have good times, by and by
Next fall when the work's all done.
 
If such things weren't meant to be
They would never come to me
 
When it gets to four, it's my turn to go
Oh the kiss, so alcoholic and slow
Arranging me for Saturday
I thought you would know
That I always sleep alone
 
From the pen of Martin Rossiter....if you hear no other song today, hear this...

Do you want another lover
Do you tire of me?
Have you had a better offer
Something wild and free?

I hope to god your sure
You want this other more
Than you once wanted me

I have been to see the doctor
He agrees with me
There is nothing that can stop you
But I can't dream

Half buried in a world
Where I love everyone
And everyone loves me

It's not normal but it's mine
And i'll leave in my own time
The one thing you can't steal

Is it over, over
Is this the end of me?
Is it over, over
Dispensable and cheap?
Is it over , over
Is this the end of me?

I have friends that owe me favours
They look out for me
They love me like a brother (only)

If your memorys so strong
How come you got it wrong
On what you promised me
Can you now ignore
How you felt with every pore?
Tell me that wasn't real

Is it over, over
Is this the end of me?
Is it over, over
Dispensable and cheap?
Is it over, over
Is this the end of me?
Is it over, over
I still want you

If I want another lover
I'll get one easily
I still have much to offer
 
Appliances have gone berserk
I cannot keep up
Treading on people's toes
Snot-nosed little punk

And I can't face the evening straight
And you can't offer me escape
Houses move and houses speak
If you take me there you'll get relief
Relief, relief, relief, relief...

And if I'm gonna talk
I just wanna talk
Please don't interrupt
Just sit back and listen

Cause I can't face the evening straight
And you can't offer me escape
Houses move and houses speak
If you take me there you'll get relief
relief, relief, relief, relief...

It's too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much

While you were sleeping your babies grew
The stars shined and the shadows moved
Time flew the phone rang
There was a silence when the kitchen sang
Its songs competed like kids for space
We stared for hours in our maker's face
They gave us picks said "go mine the sun
And go gold and come back when you're done"
Uh oh

While you were sleeping you tossed you turned
You rolled your eyes as the world burned
The heavens fell the earth quaked
I thought you must be but you weren't awake, no
You were dreaming you ignored the sun
You grew your power garden for your little ones
And you found brides for them on Christmas Eve
They hung young Cain from the Adam trees
And danced uh oh
While you were sleeping I tossed and I turned too
I closed my eyes but the future burned through
The planet turned a hair grey as I relived the day

While you were sleeping the money died
Machines were harmless and the earth sighed
The wind you swept sound and gravity brought my love
Around
The oceans rose sang about decay
The witches flew and the mermaids stayed
Full of dreams you overslept
In keeping with the quiet through the walls I crept
I walked on tip-toes sent darkness swirling over all
The kitchen
In the early morning
Uh oh uh oh

I'll never catch up to you who sleep so sound
My yawns are useless my heart beats too loud
To go to sleep my mind's too proud to bow out
While you were sleeping the time changed
All your things were rearranged
Your vampire mirrors face to face
They saw forever out into space and found you dreaming
In black and white
While it rained in all the colors of the night
Uh oh uh oh

I watched the tv's memories champion ships vanish to sea
Can it be my honey between you and me
So I waited for the riddled sky to be solved again by
Sunrise
And I made a death soup for life
For my father's ill widowed wife
Did you have that strangest dream before you woke
'Cause in your gown you had the butterfly stroke
Did it escape you like some half-told joke
When you reached for your plume of smoke

And it'll haunt you my honey bee
Anyone who's anyone has that same dream
Were you falling were you flying and were you calling
Out or were you dying
But thank god you're up now let's stay this way
Else there'll be no mornings and no more days
'Cause when we're dreaming the babies grow
The stars shine and the shadows flow
Time flies the phone rings there is a silence
When everybody tries to sing
Uh oh uh oh

Well, I don't want just a girl to fool around with
Well, I don't want just a girl to ball, alright
What I want is a girl that I care about
Or I want nothing at all
Nothing at all, alright

Well, I won't pretend I like a girl if I really don't
And act like she's great when she makes me feel appalled
All I want is a girl that I care about
Or I want nothing at all
Nothing at all

Well, I don't want some cocaine-sniffing tramp in the bar
Well, I don't want a triumph in the car
I don't want to make a rich girl crawl
What I want is a girl that I care about
Or I want no one at all

Alright, listen to this now
Picture this: I'm walking with my girlfriend
28 misguided souls combine say: "We're moving in!"
There's a certain kind of girl
That you care about so much
You say: "I don't care what you guys do to me
But her, don't touch!"

'Cause I don't want just a girl to fool around with
I don't want just a girl to ball
What I want is a girl that I care about
Or I want nothing at all
Oh, alright

Well, I don't want a girl to fool around with, no
I don't want just a girl to ball, no
What I want is a girl that I care about
Or I want nothing at all
Alright, gentlemen!
 
TC sleeps alone tonight.
 
Soft kitty,

Warm kitty,

Little ball of fur.

Happy kitty,

Sleepy kitty,

Purr Purr Purr
