and I don't understand why I sleep all day
and I start to complain that there's no rain
and all I can do is read a book to stay awake
and it rips my life away, but it's a great escape

Well I just got out of the county prison, doing 90 days for non-support.
Tried to find me an executive postion, but no matter I smooth I talked, they would listen to the fact that I'm a genius,
The man say they got all that they can use.

Will I ever find a bassist and a drummer
to help me play my original songs?

Just like the white-winged dove sings a song that sounds like she's singing: "ooh, baby, ooh--I said ooh."

argh. For me that line went right up there with "I am I cried to no one there and no body heard, not even the chair" in level of annoying stupidity.

She sings a song. WELL OF COURSE it sounds like she's singing. What ELSE did you expect it to sound like?

You're misreading it: the point isn't that the song sounds like she's singing, it's that it sounds like she's singing "ooh baby ooh." Besides, critique of lyrics is not allowed here, especially when Stevie Nicks is involved.

yeah, se... No.

is it just that you can't handle the idea that i can like Stevie Nick's singing but that her lyrics are totally insipid at times?

I don't have to take this from the guy who posted "You drive me crazy with that boogie-oogie-oogie."

but you will anyway.

besides, boogie oogie oogie oogie driving someone crazy is a bit more of a sensical lyric than repeating that a dove is singing and sounds like it's singing.

No, sorry.  Both are equal in terms of silliness.

I agree there should be no lyrics bashing.  That could be a separate thread all together and I would likely contribute heavily.

So let it be written, so let it be done. All bashing of lyrics shall be done in a separate thread.
