    ELO, Time, Yours Truly - 1981

    She is the latest in technology,
    almost mythology
    but she has a heart of stone,
    She has an IQ of 1001
    She has a jumpsuit on
    And she's also a telephone

    Cracking - not sure it aged well or badly - but love it all the same

    To stand where Charlie Williams used to stand with Danny Blanchflower
    To run until you feel your heart will stop
    To smell that Oakwell turf and cheer the best team in the land
    Knowing each game takes us closer to the top

    When God retires he says he’ll come back home again to Barnsley,
    St Peter says he’ll work the gate for free,
    He’s declared his predilection even made a small prediction,
    Liverpool nil and Barnsley 23

    they come from Grimethorpe and Monk Bretton, from Wombwell and from Wath
    To witness once again the world’s 8th wonder
    Now we’re on the television
    Every year a new division
    Stand up and take a bow please Norman Hunter

    I said I see no joy
    I see only sorry
    I see no chance of your bright new tomorrow
    So stand down Margaret
    Stand down please
    Stand down down down down down
    Down down down down down

    If you see my baby walking I'm not walking by her side,
    There's no need to look 'cos I won't be hard to find
    I'm walking twenty yards behind her 'cos I like the way she shakes her behind
    .
    .
    .
    .
    There's so much confusion in the town when she's passing through
    All the cars are going backwards and the traffic lights change to blue
    I'm walking twenty yards behind her 'cos I'm frightened by the damage she'll do

    They must declare their interests
    But not their company cars
    Is there more to a seat in parliament
    Than sitting on your arse
    And the best of all this bad bunch
    Is shouting to be heard
    Above the sound of ideologies clashing

    More from the bard of Barking

    Never wait, or hesitate
    Get in kid
    Before it's too late.
    You may never get, another chance
    Cos youth's a mask
    But it don't last.
    Live it long
    And live it fast .................

    Georgie was, a friend of mine.

    three from me:

    The aim of his role
    Was to move a lot of blow
    Ask him his dream, what does it mean?
    He wouldn't know
    Cant be like the rest is the most he'll confess
    But times running out
    and there's no happiness
    (Curtis Mayfield : Superfly)

    Jesus.... and his lawyer are coming back
    (The Eels: Novocaine for the soul)

    If you're not living on the edge
    You're taking up too much room
    (rev and the makers: Heavyweight champion of the world)

    plus any line from Grandmaster flash, The message, sheer poetry

    I think me & thee could swap lines all week, mate.
    I’m so sorry, my spirit’s rarely in my body.
    It wanders through the dry country..
    Looking for a good place to rest,
    My head upon your chest,
    I can feel the pillow of your breast.. :)

    When I'm watchin' my TV,
    And a man comes on and tells me
    How white my shirts can be
    But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
    The same cigarettes as me
