My set is amazing, it even smells like a street
There's a bar at the end where I can meet you and your
friend
Someone scrawled on the wall "I smell the blood of les tricoteuses"
Who wrote up scandals in other bars

I'm having so much fun with the poisonous people
Spreading rumours and lies and stories they made up
Some make you sing and some make you scream
One makes you wish that you'd never been seen
But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier
mache
Making bullet-proof faces, Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing

So you scream out of line
"I want you! I need you! Anyone out there? Any time?"
Tres butch little number whines "Hey dirty, I want you
When it's good, it's really good, and when it's bad I go to pieces"
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing

Well, on the street where you live I could not hold up my head
For I put all I have in another bed
On another floor, in the back of a car
In the cellar like a church with the door ajar
Well, I guess we've must be looking for a different kind
But we can't stop trying 'till we break up our minds
'Til the sun drips blood on the seedy young knights
Who press you on the ground while shaking in fright
I guess we could cruise down one more time
With you by my side, it should be fine
We'll buy some drugs and watch a band
Then jump in the river holding hands

Ibby - what does that have to do with the thread or the question at hand?

No. Will I ever believe in a candidate as long as I live, probably not.

Talk about an utterly inadequate response! Go do something to your credit, Bruce! Only a kindergartener expects to get anywhere sticking his tongue out and flapping his hands with his thumbs in his ears.

I can definitely reduce some fatuity-mongers around here to squealing.

Meanwhile back on the election trail, Guilianni endorses perpetual war.

I would have voted for him at the time but now he is but a shadow of what he portrayed before. He seems to be towing the party line and I hope this is strategy on his part.

Interesting to note how many blacks I have spoken with are just absolutely convinced that Obama is going to win the nomination and get into the White House. NPR did a great piece the other day how when polled many blacks, and a majority in some states, say they are most likely voting for Hillary Clinton.

I've not spoken top one person who is "absolutely convinced" of that. I have talked to many who would love that and are hopeful, but thats totally different.
