Just. 1 of my many favorites , this fit so well with today's BS
https://youtu.be/W2duz_H0jvI BOB SEGAR 2+2= Yes it's true I am a young man but I'm old enough to kill I don't wanna kill nobody but I must if you so will And if I raise my hand in question you just say that I'm a fool Cause I got the gall to ask you Can you maybe change the rules can you stand and call me upstart Ask what answer can I find, I ain't sayin' I'm a genius 2+2 is on my mind Well I knew a guy in high school just an average friendly guy And he had himself a girlfriend and you made them say goodbye Now he's buried in the mud over foreign jungle land And his girl just sits and cries she just doesn't understand So you say he died for freedom well if he died to save your lies Go ahead and call me yellow 2+2 is on my mind All I know is that I'm young and your rules they are old If I've got to kill to live then there's something left untold I'm no statesman I'm no general I'm no kid I'll never be It's the rules not the soldier that I find the real enemy I'm no prophet I'm no rebel I'm just asking you why I just want a simple answer why it is I 've got to die I'm a simple minded guy 2+2 is on my mind

Guyute by Phish https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iIn88jA0rkY
Guyute was the ugly pig Who walked on me and danced a jig That he had learned when he was six Then stopped and did some other tricks Like pulling weapons from his coat And holding them against my throat He lectured me in language strange And scampered quickly out of range I'm bouncing like a newborn elf I can't remain inside myself Guyute glances in my eyes And manages to hypnotize Me as I sleep the sleep of death He sucks from me my only breath That I had breathed since I was ten I hope this happens once again Last edited by CosmicCharlie; 11-03-2016 at 04:29 AM..

5 pages and no mention of the King? the Prophet? the One?
let me fix that: Bob Marley, Small Axe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eciArkBTeBM "Small Axe" Why boasteth thyself Oh, evil men Playing smart And not being clever? I said, you're working iniquity To achieve vanity (if a-so a-so) But the goodness of Jah, Jah I-dureth for-I-ver So if you are the big tree We are the small axe Ready to cut you down (well sharp) To cut you down These are the words Of my master, keep on tellin' me No weak heart Shall prosper And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall fall in it, fall in it And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall fall in it (... fall in it) If you are the big tree, let me tell you that We are the small axe, sharp and ready Ready to cut you down (well sharp) To cut you down (To cut you down) (To cut you down) These are the words Of my master, tellin' me that No weak heart Shall prosper And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall fall in it, uh, bury in it And whosoever diggeth a pit Shall bury in it, uh (... bury in it) If you are the big, big tree We are the small axe Ready to cut you down (well sharp) To cut you down If you are the big, big tree, let me tell you that We are the small axe Ready to cut you down (well sharp) To cut you down Sharpened ...

One of my favorite artists, this song just kinda speaks to me... He said it best.... It's 4:20 24/7 365
Keller Williams "It's A Plant" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MzcnaWDB28 Well it’s a plant , but it can’t grow freely At least not in this space and time Where can we begin, shouldn’t it be a sin Fighting against the soldiers of sense That brings the peace to my mind The peace to my mind Oh why is it a crime? It’s against the law Well I hope this freeze will thaw Before I die, from this space and time And the politics, the folks that the nation picks Are they high, or afraid to try They’re afraid to try Oh why is it a crime? But whatever you do, you make sure it’s the right thing for you But if you pass, at least allow us to roll around in the grass Because it’s time it’s 420, 24/7...365 Well that nation’s debt Kind of makes the man upset But we know and they know The answer is in this space and time Create work, just plow the fucking dirt Medicine clothes, and the paper make my head feel so fine My head feels so fine Oh why is it a crime? But whatever you do, you make sure it’s the right thing for you But if you pass, at least allow us to roll around in the grass Because it’s time it’s 420, 24/7...365 Well is it meant to be Is it that far away from reality Open up the worlds mind And free the kind It could lube the cars, mellow out the bars Make room in jail for the killers in this time Because it’s just a plant But it can’t grow freely |

My shits fucked up Well, I went to the doctor I said, "I'm feeling kind of rough" He said, "Let me break it to you, son" Your shit's fucked up." I said, "my shit's fucked up?" Well, I don't see how-" He said, "The shit that used to work- It won't work now." I had a dream Ah, shucks, oh, well Now it's all fucked up It's shot to hell Yeah, yeah, my shit's fucked up It has to happen to the best of us The rich folks suffer like the rest of us It'll happen to you That amazing grace Sort of passed you by You wake up every day And you start to cry Yeah, you want to die But you just can't quit Let me break it on down: It's the fucked up shit Last edited by RckyMtRdnk; 11-02-2016 at 11:26 PM..

An easy one first. I love Bob, but..... Don't think twice it's alright. It ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don’t matter, anyhow An’ it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe If you don’t know by now When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I’ll be gone You’re the reason I’m trav’lin’ on Don’t think twice, it’s all right It ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe That light I never knowed An’ it ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe I’m on the dark side of the road Still I wish there was somethin’ you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay We never did too much talkin’ anyway So don’t think twice, it’s all right It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal Like you never did before It ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal I can’t hear you anymore I’m a-thinkin’ and a-wond’rin’ all the way down the road I once loved a woman, a child I’m told I give her my heart but she wanted my soul But don’t think twice, it’s all right I’m walkin’ down that long, lonesome road, babe Where I’m bound, I can’t tell But goodbye’s too good a word, gal So I’ll just say fare thee well I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don’t mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Back in the day of 501's and flannel shirts....there was Maiden ! \m/
A rare song.....but so bad ass !!!
Lyrics Take a look in the pool and what do you see In the dark depths there faces beckoning me Can't you see them it's plain for all to see They were there oh I know you don't believe me Oh, I've never felt so strange But, I'm not going insane I've no doubt that you think I'm off my head You don't say but it's in your eyes instead Hours I spend out just gazing into that pool Something draws me there I don't know what to do Oh, they drain my strength away Oh, they're asking me to stay Nightmares, spirits calling me Nightmares, they won't leave me be All my life's blood is slowly draining away And I feel that I'm weaker every day Somehow I know I haven't long to go Joining them at the bottom of the pool Now, I feel they are so near I, begin to see them clear Nightmares, coming all the time Nightmares, Will give me peace of mind Now it's clear and I know what I have to do I must take you down there to look at them too Hand in hand then we'll jump right into the pool Can't you see not just me they want you too Oh, we'll drown together It, will be forever Nightmares, forever calling me Nightmares, Now we rest in peace
