"Some People Like Cupcakes Better.

[The Lone Liberal]

I For One Care Less For Them!"

Girl you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin
He hung around till you found
That he didn’t know nuthin’

[greatauntoftriplets]

1. Zappa, of course. Jeez.

Girl you thought he was a man
But he was a muffin
He hung around till you found
That he didn't know nuthin'

Girl you thought he was a man
But he only was a-puffin'
No cries is heard in the night
As a result of him stuffin'

Bruce Fowler on trombone, Napoleon Murphy Brock on tenor sax, and lead vocals,
Terry Bozzio on drums, Tom Fowler on bass, Denny Walley on slide, George Duke

Austin, Texas, where ever you are.

2. Here I am dramatic

Here I am not waiting
Here I am not listening
To the call of the wild

[greatauntoftriplets]

3. Bombay Sapphires??????????????

You--beloved
Were to me - everything
That love stood for
To love one another for awhile
Was enough -
It was all that I lived for
How can I go on without you
Can I go on - without you
I tell myself - this time
I'm going to have to -
Move on


It's like
Bombay sapphires
Hey I can take you higher
Whatever you desire
I can mend your heart

It is green
It is aqua marine
It is colors I have never seen
I can see past you - to the white sand...
It is blue
It is not about you
It is all true
You know--who I am

The sea never changes - not really
It is the constant in my life
I always return here
To the flash of those colors
Through every window
The wind through the night
Here I am dramatic
Here I am not waiting
Here I am not listening
For the call of the wind



It's like purple haze
It's there every day
Its passion never fades
You know what I mean

6. President coolidge come down, in a railroad train

With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand
President say "little fat man, oh isn’t it a shame,
What the river has done to this poor farmer’s land"

[greatauntoftriplets]

7. Randy Newman????

Songtext: - Louisiana 1927

What has happened down here, is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
It rained real hard, and it rained for a real long time
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline

The river rose all day, the river rose all night
Some people got lost in the flood, some people got away alright
The river had busted through clear down to Placker Mine
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline

Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away

President Coolidge come down, in a railroad train
With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand
President say "little fat man, oh isn't it a shame,
What the river has done to this poor farmer's land"

Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, you're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, oh Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, oh Lord, they're trying to wash us away
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away

13. Say the ladies are insane there

And they sure know how to use it
The don't abuse it
Never gonna loose it
I can't refuse it

[greatauntoftriplets]

14. OH, that is soooo easy.

And I have been to Spain.

Three Dog Night
Never Been To Spain
Never been to Spain
- Three Dog Night

Well I never been to Spain
But I kinda like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
The don't abuse it
Never gonna lose it
I can't refuse it

Well I never been to England
But I kinda like the Beatles
Well, I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to Needles
Can you feel it
It must be real it
Feels so good
Oh, feels so good

Well I never been to heaven
But I been to Oklahoma
Well they tell me I was born there
But I really don't remember
In Oklahoma, not Arizona
What does it matter
What does it matter

Well I never been to Spain
But I kinda like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
They don't abuse it
Never gonna lose it
I can't refuse it

Well I never been to heaven
But I been to Oklahoma
Well they tell me I was born there
But I really don't remember
In Oklahoma, not Arizona
What does it matter

15. Armoured cars and tanks and guns

Came to take away our sons
But every man must stand behind
The men behind the wire

Through the little streets of Belfast
In the dark of early morn
British soldiers came marauding
Wrecking little homes with scorn

Heedless of the crying children
Cragging fathers from their beds
Beating sons while helpless mothers
Watched the blood poor from their heads

Not for them a judge and jury
Nor indeed a trial at all
But being Irish means you´re guilty
So we´re guilty one and all

Round the world the truth will echo
Cromwell´s men are here again
England´s name again is sullied
In the eyes of honest men.

Proud we march behind our banner
Firm we´ll stand behind our men
We will have them free to help us
Build a nation once again

On the people step together
Proudly firmly on their way
Never fear never falter
Till the boys are home to stay


Heck I gave you the whole song.LOL

[greatauntoftriplets]

16. Oh, I knew that one!

Author is anonymous. Great guy, anon. Knew him well.

[The Lone Liberal]

19. Come all you young rebels & list while I sing

For the love of one's country is a dangerous thing
For it banishes fear like the speed of a flame
And it makes us all part of the Patriot Game

My name is O'Hanlan and I've just gone 16
My home is in Mahnagh, that's where I was weaned
I've read about heroes and I wanted the same
Just to play out my part in the Patriot's Game

Been nearly two years since I wandered away
With the local battalion of the bold IRA
I gave up my boyhood just to drill and to train
And to play out my part in the Patriot's Game

And now as I lie here, my body all holes
Well I think of those traitors who bargained and sold
And I wish that my rifle had given the same
To those Quislings, those low down quislings
Who sold out my Patriot Game.

[greatauntoftriplets]

20. Great song. Written by Dominick Behan, if I remember correctly.

And here is another one.

Down by the Glenside
by Peadar Kearney
'Twas down by the Glenside I met an old woman
A plucking young nettles she ne'er saw me coming
I listened a while to the song she was humming
Glory o glory o to the Bold Fenian Men
'Tis fifty long years since I saw the moon beamin'
On strong manly forms, and on eyes with hope gleamin'
I see them again sure through all my sad dreamin'
Glory o glory o to the Bold Fenian Men
Some died by the glenside, some died mid the stranger
And wise men have told us their cause was a failure
But they stood by old Ireland and never feared danger
Glory o glory o to the Bold Fenian Men
I passed on my way, God be praised that I met her
Be life long or short I will never forget her
We may have great men but we'll never have better
Glory o glory o to the Bold Fenian Men
