A Sunday Drive

Back during my childhood, our parents would often load up my brother and I after Sunday morning church services for a leisurely drive around where we lived. Even though we were seeing mostly familiar sights, it was still good to see them, and this is why “A Sunday Drive” sounded about right for the name of a weekly series revisiting familiar sites that are well worth seeing again and again. The link below the image is to the site itself, and the image is linked to the post it was first included in here.

What is this song
All about
Can’t figure any
Lyrics out
How do the words
To it go
I wish you’d tell me
I don’t know

Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know
Oh no
Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know

Now I’m mumblin’
And I’m screamin’
And I don’t know
What I’m singin’
Crank the volume
Ears are bleedin’
I still don’t know
What I’m singin’
We’re so loud
And incoherent
Boy this oughta
Bug your parents

Yeah

It’s so
Unintelligible
I just can’t get it
Through my skull
It’s hard to bargle
Nawdle Zouss
With all these marbles
In my mouth

Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know
Oh no
Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know

Well we don’t sound
Like Madonna
Here we are now
We’re Nirvana
Sing distinctly
We don’t wanna
But our album
We’re Nirvana
A garage band
From Seattle
Well it sure beats
Raisin’ cattle

Yeah

And I forgot
The next verse
Oh well
I guess it pays
To rehearse
The lyric sheet’s
So hard to find
What are the words
Oh never mind

Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know
Oh no
Don’t know
Don’t know
Don’t know

Well I’m yellin
And we’re playin’
But I don’t know
What I’m sayin’
What’s the message
I’m conveyin’
Can you tell me
What I’m sayin’
So have you got
Some idea
Didn’t think so
Well I’ll see ya
Sayonara
Sayonawa

Ayiyaaaaaah

Rob Zombie's Dragula

Link: [Rob Zombie]

***WARNING***
Some may find the lyrics of the song, and the imagery of the video, quite disturbing. So, be prepared to close your eyes and ears at any moment, but please keep your heart and mind open.

Dragula
Rob Zombie
Superstition
Fear
And jealousy

Dead I am the one
Exterminating son
Slipping through the trees
Strangling the breeze

Dead I am the sky
Watching angels cry
While they slowly turn
Conquering the worm

Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula
Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dead I am the pool
Spreading from the fool
Weak and want you need
Nowhere as you bleed

Dead I am the rat
Feast upon the cat
Tender is the fur
Dying as you purr

Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula
Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula

Do it baby
Do it baby

Do it baby
Do it baby
Burn like an animal

Dead I am the life
Dig into the skin
Knuckle crack the bone
21 to win

Dead I am the dog
Hound of Hell you cry
Devil on your back
I can never die

Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula
Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula

Do it baby
Do it baby

Do it baby
Do it baby
Burn like an animal

Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula
Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula

Dig through the ditches
And burn through the witches
I slam in the back of my
Dragula

WhiteHeart Wednesday

Link: [Freedom]



MP3 Audio Player From: [BlogDumps Video]

Over Me
WhiteHeart

Caught in a summer rain
But I don’t run for cover
I stand out in the shower
Rain runnin’ over me
I could stay for hours
And though the sky is dark
And there’s a shadow on the land
The rain comforts me
It is the touch of His hand

I feel His love pourin’ down over me
Warm healin’ waters that set me free
Safe in the arms of eternity
Held by the wonder and mystery
Over me
Over me
Over me

Know that I’m not dreamin’
It’s real what I’m feelin’
Mercy flowin’ down
A rainbow of new meanin’
It is a holy sign
That there’s Someone up above
So now I open my heart
In the shower of His love

I feel His love pourin’ down over me
Warm healin’ waters that set me free
Safe in the arms of eternity
Held by the wonder and mystery
Over me
Over me
Keep pourin’ out His life over me
Over me
Over me
I am free

So now I open my heart
In the shower of His love

Oh I feel His love pourin’ down over me
Warm healin’ waters that set me free
Safe in the arms of eternity
Held by the wonder and mystery
Over me
Over me
Oh my Lord
I do believe
That You gave
Gave it all
Over me

Love is pourin’ down over me
I feel His mercy flowin’ over me
Over me
Oh the wonder and mystery
How His love pours over me
Ahhahhahhahahuhhhhhahh

TWO FOR TUESDAY {Redo}

Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

Welcome To My Life
Simple Plan
Do you ever feel like breaking down
Do you ever feel out of place
Like somehow you just don’t belong
And no one understands you

Do you ever wanna run away
Do you lock yourself in your room
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming

No you don’t know what it’s like
When nothing feels all right
You don’t know what it’s like
To be like me

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like

Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else
Are you sick of feeling so left out
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over

Are you stuck inside a world you hate
Are you sick of everyone around
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you’re bleeding

No you don’t know what it’s like
When nothing feels all right
You don’t know what it like
To be like me

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like

Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I’m happy
But I’m not gonna be okay

Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work it was always there
You don’t know what it’s like
What it’s like

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like
What it’s like
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life

When I’m Gone
Simple Plan

I look around me
But all I seem to see
Is people going nowhere
Expecting sympathy
It’s like we’re going through the motions
Of a scripted destiny
Tell me where’s our inspiration
If life won’t wait
I guess it’s up to me

No
Well we’re not gonna waste
Another moment in this town
No
And we won’t come back
The world is calling out
No
Leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well
So long
You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

Procrastination
Running circles in my head
While you sit there contemplating
You’ll wind up left for dead
Life is what happens
While you’re busy making your excuses
Another day
Another casualty
But that won’t happen to me

No
Well we’re not gonna waste
Another moment in this town
No
And we won’t come back
The world is calling out
No
Leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well
So long
You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
When I’m gone

I won’t look back
When I say goodbye
Gonna leave this world behind me
Gonna take what’s mine tonight
‘Cause every wasted day
Becomes a wasted chance
You’re gonna wake up feeling sorry
‘Cause life won’t wait
I guess it’s up to you

No
No we’re not gonna waste
Another moment in this town
No
And we won’t come back
The world is calling out
No
Leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well
So long
You’ll miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

Come Monday...Porn Spottts

“Come Monday…” is a weekly series that will involve a review of, or commentary about, websites, movies, documentaries, television shows, sports, music, and whatever else may tickle my fancy at the time. Be assured that these reviews will be generally positive, as in accordance to the Jimmy Buffett song “Come Monday.” This is subject to change, however. In fact, I would be most derelict in my duties to neglect going on a rant every once in a while. For rants promote change, and change can be good—right? Therefore, since good is generally considered as being a positive force in 99.3% of the parallel universes that I am aware of, even a rant could be considered as being something positive, and a genuine hissy-fit would be even better (so I’m told).





I must admit that I am feeling rather idiotic. For while I was not paying nearly as much attention as I should have been to what was being displayed on the [Spottt] widget that I used to have on the sidebar to the left, ads for both soft and hardcore porn sites were being shown.

Yeah, I had seen some ads that had some very attractive ladies in some very provocative poses, but they were not any worse than what you could see in a [Sport Illustrated Swimsuit Issue]. So, I didn’t think much of it.

Then, I received an email last week from one of my regular visitors here, and I started paying a lot more attention to what was being displayed on Spottt widgets that I came across. Oh my, was I ever in for a shock. [Here] is just one of the sites that was being advertised through Spottt. Please, do not click on the link if you take offense to very explicit sexual content.

No, this may not be of any concern to many, but since I see a Spottt widget on many sites that are focused on so-called family-friendly content, I suspect that this news may be of great interest to quite a few. Of course, some may consider what is contained on porn sites to be all about being VERY friendly towards family members. There are two sides to every coin, you know.

The friend who first called my attention to the porn Spotts said that she had only noticed them late at night, and since we both live in the western hemisphere of this world, that would mean that they are being shown during the daytime in the other half. That is, unless they have them set-up to run late at night all over.

Alas, I really want to believe that Spottt may have been hacked, or taken over by someone else since I first signed-up with the ad service around a year ago. For they accidentally sent me a rejection notice for this blog because of it being judged to not be family-friendly enough.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am sure that the rejection notice was accidentally sent. For they had already sent me notice of being approved, and then they sent me another email that apologized for accidentally sending the other one!

Anyway, the point that I am trying to make is that it seems highly unlikely that an outfit that is concerned with where their widgets are placed would approve of the kind of ads that are now being shown on them. On the other hand, my mom always said that I was awfully gullible.

Don McLean vs. Weird Al Yankovic

Link: [Don McLean]


Link: [On YouTube]

American Pie
Don McLean
A long long time ago
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they’d be happy for a while
But February made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn’t take one more step
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day
The music
Died

So bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

Did you write the Book of Love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock ‘n’ roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow
Well I know that you’re in love with him
‘Cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
And I digged those rhythmy blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day
The music
Died

I started singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

Now for ten years we’ve been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone
But that’s not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me
Oh and while the King was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned
And while Lenin read a book on Marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day
The music
Died

We were singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and fallin’ fast
It landed foul out on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the halftime air was sweet perfume
While the Sergeants played a marchin’ tune
We all got up to dance
Oh but we never got the chance
‘Cause the player tried to take the field
The marchin’ band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day
The music
Died

We started singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

Oh and there we were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on
Jack by nimble
Jack be quick
Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
‘Cause fire is the devil’s only friend
Oh and as I watch him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break that Satan’s spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughin’ with delight
The day
The music
Died

He was singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store
Where I’d heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn’t play
And in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried
And the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father
Son
And Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day
The music
Died

And they were singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die
This’ll be the day that I die

They were singin’
Bye-bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good ol’ boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die

The Saga Begins
Weird Al Yankovic

A long long time ago
In a galaxy far away
Naboo was under an attack
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
Could talk the federation
Into maybe cutting them a little slack
But their response
It didn’t thrill us
They locked the doors
And tried to kill us
We escaped from that gas
Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
We took a bongo from the scene
And we went to Theed to see the Queen
We all wound up on Tatooine
That’s where
We found
This boy

Oh my my
This here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader
Someday later
Now he’s just a small fry
And he left his home
And kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin’
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi

Did you know this junkyard slave
Isn’t even old enough to shave
But he can use the Force they say
Ahh
Do you see him hitting on the Queen
Though he’s just nine and she’s fourteen
Yeah
He’s probably gonna marry her someday
Well
I know he built C-3PO
And I’ve heard how fast his pod can go
And we were broke it’s true
So we made a wager or two
He was a prepubescent flyin’ ace
And the minute Jabba started off that race
Well I knew who would win first place
Oh yes,
I was our boy

We started singin’
My my
This here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader
Someday later
Now he’s just a small fry
And he left his home
And kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin’
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi

Now we finally got to Coruscant
The Jedi Council we knew would want
To see how good the boy could be
So we took him there and we told the tale
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
And he might fulfill that prophecy
Oh
The Council was impressed of course
Could he bring balance to the Force
They interviewed the kid
Oh training they forbid
Because Yoda sensed in him much fear
And Qui-Gon said Now listen here
Just stick it in your pointy ear
I still
Will teach
This boy

He was singin’
My my
This here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader
Someday later
Now he’s just a small fry
And he left his home
And kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin’
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi

We caught a ride back to Naboo
‘Cause Queen Amidala wanted to
I frankly would’ve liked to stay
We all fought in that epic war
And it wasn’t long at all before
Little hotshot flew his plane
And saved the day
And in the end
Some Gunguns died
Some ships blew up
And some pilots fried
A lot of folks were croakin’
The battle droids were broken
And the Jedi I admire most
Met up with Darth Maul
And now he’s toast
Well I’m still here
And he’s a ghost
I guess
I’ll train
This boy

And I was singin’
My my
This here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader
Someday later
Now he’s just a small fry
And he left his home
And kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin’
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi

We were singin’
My my
This here Anakin guy
Maybe Vader
Someday later
Now he’s just a small fry
And he left his home
And kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin’
Soon I’m gonna be a Jedi
