    Now that's a mundane observation.

    I used to know a girl in primary school called Hazel. She also had hazel coloured eyes.

    I always wanted to meet a girl called Hazel just so I could tell her it's my favourite girl's name. it's never happened.

    There are no better lyrics in Rock than
    "Oh the gal I'm to marry is a bow legged sow
    I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge."
    Rolling Stones - Dear Doctor - Beggars Banquet
    .

    I'm sorry but this just wrong, clearley the best lyrics are:

    Generals gathered in their masses
    Just like witches at black masses

    from the sabbath classic war pigs... i mean could you rhyme anything with masses?
    No you couldn't and i bet the stones couldn't either. its just pure creative genius.

    This morning at 3.33am I was woken up by birdsong outside my bedroom window. I went back to sleep though. The End.

    Thats amazing! :D We were mad on this song all through uni, must of tried to find an alternative rhyme thousands of times! But we've never managed it (to be fair it is normally after we've had a few)

    I'm off to phone ozzy to tell him you've found a better line for his placeholder! and then to the pub to claim credit for your work! :wink:

    For that matter, no better Rock(or blues) album than "Beggars Banquet".

    "Let it bleed" and "Exile on main street" beat Beggars Banquet.

    "Don't wanna sound too funky, but all my friends are junkies..."

    Sorry, but I'm sticking with "Beggars.....". I mean really, is there a sleazier song in rock than "Stray Cat Blues"?

  • Yesterday morning, lots of good considerate driving, lots of friendly people out and about.
    This morning, lots of blind miseryguts on 2 or 4 wheels.

    The title for the best rhyme in a song must go to Half Man Half Biscuit.

    " Theyre all cooking on Blue Peter and theyre sampling the dishes, No I dont normally like Tomatoes, John, but this is delicious..." I think the son is 99% of Gargoyles look like Bob Todd, but could be wrong.

    They probably ending up annoying the crows who try to create a post apocolytic / wastes of hell sort of atmosphere with their cawwing.

    Last night I dreamt that my mum sent me a stick of rock from Marazion. It was a nice stick of rock as it had no E numbers, and was a sort of twisty shape, in shades of blue and green. When I woke up I was disappointed that it was only a dream.
