Recommended Posts

Why does a person pay it forward and continue to do so?  , we do it in love, we do it out of compassion, we do it because others need it. we do it because it is the thing to do. there is no better felling. If you do it enough it will make into the person you need to be. We are here to help one another, make each other feel good no matter how big or how small. Ian Anderson knew how to turn a phrase, like so many artist, The man is a genius with words. words that spoke of all the above statements.  You guys really have me WONDERING..    DID YOU GET IT?

What song is that from?

"Wond'ring Aloud"

 

Wond'ring aloud --

how we feel today.

Last night sipped the sunset --

my hands in her hair.

We are our own saviours

as we start both our hearts beating life

into each other.

Wond'ring aloud --

will the years treat us well.

As she floats in the kitchen,

I'm tasting the smell

of toast as the butter runs.

Then she comes, spilling crumbs on the bed

and I shake my head.

And it's only the giving

that makes you what you are.

No wonder I couldn't find it.  These are the lyrics I read HERE

 

 

 

 

Wond'ring AgainThere's the stillness of death on a deathly unliving sea,
and the motor car magical world long since ceased to be,
when the Eve-bitten apple returned to destroy the tree.

Incestuous ancestry's charabanc ride,
spawning new millions throws the world on its side.
Supporting their far-flung illusion, the national curse,
and those with no sandwiches please get off the bus.

The excrement bubbles,
the century's slime decays
and the brainwashing government lackeys
would have us say
it's under control and we'll soon be on our way
to a grand year for babies and quiz panel games
of the hot hungry millions you'll be sure to remain.

The natural resources are dwindling and no one grows old,
and those with no homes to go to, please dig yourself holes.

We wandered through quiet lands, felt the first breath of snow.
Searched for the last pigeon, slate grey I've been told.
Stumbled on a daffodil which she crushed in the rush, heard it sigh,
and left it to die.
At once felt remorse and were touched by the loss of our own,
held its poor broken head in her hands,
dropped soft tears in the snow,
and it's only the taking that makes you what you are.

Wond'ring aloud will a son one day be born
to share in our infancy
in the child's path we've worn.
In the aging seclusion of this earth that our birth did surprise
we'll open his eyes.

Thanks everyone. I am thinking of doing this again soon. Hope at least some of you enjoyed it. I have a funny feeling fussydog will really enjoy it.

 

Love one another, do something nice for someone,  let someone know that you are there for them and please never forget,  And it's only the giving  that makes you what you are.

 

 

This all from a stranger you do not yet know ( but maybe someday )     STAY GROOVY BABY,,,   Dean

I get most of my lyrics from my head. Lyrics like the ones in the quiz stuck in my head years ago. If I am not sure of the lyrics I turn to the lp. If you want to get the lyrics incorrect, turn to the internet. They are screwed up all over. I enjoyed your participation. I sorry you got on a site that had things messed up. I thought for sure you were going to win, as close as you were getting.  I plan to do more, any thoughts?

That was a fun 'quiz' but I feel like "duh" for not solving it - especially after the clues!

Thats part of the point ( the DUH factor )  Thanks for playing, I sure thought one of you guys from Texas was going to win. I plan more, any opinion.  The duh factor being part of the quiz is fine, makes people think and can be fun. But I want to be passing along a good message with my quiz.

Yeah,

 

Zappa quiz next time!

 

"One night at the social club meeting.... Marry didn't show up!"

I can do one on Zappa that will make you want to eat the yellow snow, and the quiz wont be that simple. 

 

 

 

She said, I've got me three beers and a fist full of downs and I'm gonna get ripped....
