Come over to the window, my little darling,
I’d like to try to read your palm.
I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
before I let you take me home.

Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

Well you know that I love to live with you,
but you make me forget so very much.
I forget to pray for the angels
and then the angels forget to pray for us.

Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began …

We met when we were almost young
deep in the green lilac park.
You held on to me like I was a crucifix,
as we went kneeling through the dark.

Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began …

Your letters they all say that you’re beside me now.
Then why do I feel alone?
I’m standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
is fastening my ankle to a stone.

Now so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began …

For now I need your hidden love.
I’m cold as a new razor blade.
You left when I told you I was curious,
I never said that I was brave.

Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began …

Oh, you are really such a pretty one.
I see you’ve gone and changed your name again.
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,
to wash my eyelids in the rain!

Oh so long, Marianne, it’s time that we began …

Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime

In the summertime when the weather’s high,
You can stretch right up and touch the sky,
When the weather’s fine,
You got women, you got women on your mind.
Have a drink, have a drive,
Go out and see what you can find.

If her daddy’s rich, take her out for a meal.
If her daddy’s poor, just do what you feel.
Speed along the land,
Do a ton, or a ton and twentyfive.
When the sun goes down, you can make it,
Make it good in a lay-by.

We’re not grey people, we’re not dirty, we’re not mean.
We love everybody, but we do as we please.
When the weather’s fine
We go fishing or go swimming in the sea.
We’re always happy,
Live’s for living, yeah, that’s our philosophy.

Sing along with us, dee-dee-dee-dee-dee.
Da-da-da-da-da…
Yeah, we’re happy happy, da-da-da-da-dah.

When the winter’s here, then it’s party time.
Bring a bottle,
Wear your bright clothes. it’ll soon be summertime.
And we’ll sing again,
We’ll go drivin’ or maybe we’ll settle down.
If she’s rich, if she’s nice,
Bring you’re friends and we’ll all go into town.

SEPTA SPEAKEASY

The National Constitution Center is kicking their American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition exhibit up a notch partnering with Philadelphia’s transportation company SEPTA. They’ve transformed the exterior and interior of several SEPTA Regional Rail Silverliner cars into mobile 1920’s speakeasy.

Here’s the fun part - if you take a photo on the train and post it to Twitter using the hashtag #NCCSpeakeasy or to Facebook and tag both the National Constitution Center and SEPTA you have a chance to win a pair of tickets to the American Spirits exhibition. SEPTA pass holders will also receive $2 off the regular admission price at the center’s box office.

Needless to say, I’m going to be taking the train more this month.

American Spirits: The Rise And Fall Of Prohibition

When: October 19, 2012-April 28, 2013
Where: 525 Arch Street
Cost: $17.50 for adults, $16 for seniors and students, $11 for children ages 4-12
More info: www.prohibition.constitutioncenter.org

Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues

Johnny’s in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I’m on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he’s got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It’s somethin’ you did
God knows when
But you’re doin’ it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin’ for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin’ that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone’s tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D. A.
Look out kid
Don’t matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don’t try “No Doz”
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don’t need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin’ to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You’re gonna get hit
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin’ for a new fool
Don’t follow leaders
Watch the parkin’ meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don’t steal, don’t lift
Twenty years of schoolin’
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don’t wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don’t wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don’t work
‘Cause the vandals took the handles

homeiswhereyoufeellove:

Elephants can teach us the power of gentleness, commitment, and communication in relationships. They are are deeply committed to all creatures with whom they have relationships, are powerful when protecting others and gentle in nurturing them. The matriarch of a herd practices leadership in a way that is both gentle and inclusive. Elephants’ ability to communicate telepathically can teach us how to truly listen to others.
