You're eager and unashamed

I grieve by dying every night, baby

Prove them wrong when you get five dollars

You're eager and unashamed

I don't think the race is over, baby

Prove them wrong when you get five dollars

Five dollars, baby blues, five dollars baby

Some of us just had to fight

For even being looked at right

Then you get five dollars, baby blues, five dollars baby

Pockets full and dried eyes

It turns me on because it's timed

Now throw me five dollars baby blues, five dollars baby

Boy oh boy do I have a crush on you.

Today another round again......

Begone Dull Care

Directed by Norman McLaren and Evelyn Lambart • 1949 • Canada In this extraordinary short animation, Evelyn Lambart and Norman McLaren painted colours, shapes, and transformations directly on to their filmstrip. The result is a vivid interpretation, in fluid lines and color, of jazz music played...

“Perhaps the episode was but a childish infatuation to her but to me it was the beginning of a spiritual development a reaching out for beauty....” Charlie Chaplin

That sometimes human beings have to just sit in one place and, like, hurt. That you will become way less concerned with what other people think of you when you realize how seldom they do. That there is such a thing as raw, unalloyed, agendaless kindness. That it is possible to fall asleep during an anxiety attack. That concentrating on anything is very hard work.

You're the movements in my sleep

You are the words I couldn't keep

I saw the fumes and watched them seep

Into the wounds you bear to bleed

I could lose everything

And it was so brief

A kick in the teeth

Oil and powdered lungs

Because I know how to breathe

And it was so brief

I want more time for luck

And then I go again

Because I know how to breathe

[iskifreee]

So then you try to stay away

Saying that we're crazy

And to keep away

But I know that that ain't right

Cause two it takes

The fall that made

All of this occasion can we make it fade

And just forgive where we went

I'll remember to take the high road

Silver linings not so thin you know

Sadness does you no good

No good

The sadness does you no good

No good

I remember when she told me

She cried in shame

I told her not to worry

We can do anything

I told her one day we’d be beautiful

And maybe we could start a band

‘cos I was born to sing

And she was born to dance

It's the way you walk

It's the way you act

Something 'bout your rhythm got my heart attached

Make me move like this

When you move like that

Baby, I like what I see

You know tonight

I'll make you mine

And not just cause you're pretty baby

Something 'bout you makes me crazy

I'll pay, you won't, put your money away

I got this to show how much I appreciate ya

If you wanna you can thank me later

Efficiency efficiency they say

Get to know the date and tell the time of day

As the crowds begin complaining

How the Beaujolais is raining

Down on darkened meetings on the Champs Elysee

You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

And I'm the church and I've come

To claim you with my iron drum

La la la la la la la la la la

[iskifreee]

But you had started resisting And your mind withdrew Conversations inconsistent I don't know what to do Say it's not about commitment You're just so confused

I need time to think about it I need time to think things through 'Cause lately I've been drowning In thoughts of you Tell me, tell me how you're feeling Say it's all untrue Give me a reason for leaving 'Cause I'm so confused

[iskifreee]

Well, this is an invitation! It's not a threat If you want communication That's what you get I'm talking and talking But I don't know How to connect

And I hold  A record for being patient With your kind of hesitation

I need you, you want me But I don't know How to connect So I disconnect

I disconnect

[iskifreee]

And I don’t wanna get too close
I know I’m already exposed So are you feeling stupid, too? 
I hope I’m not the only fool
I don’t wanna run away from you Let’s be real, I’m just saying 
If you feel it, don’t cage it
Ooh, I wanna be basic
‘Cause you make me so complicated
Can I be basic with you?

[iskifreee]

If I could start with a joke or two Get a smile to come out of you Give you all that I’ve got to give So we could sing a song like the angels did I hope you feel this way Somebody feel this way It’s time to make a play Cause if we can’t act like in heaven Then we might not know that we have one We have one How could we forget We have one

[iskifreee]

Oh I got to believe it, baby That you're thinking about me maybe I don't know what you're thinking about any other day
