A Rumpus
Dog and Cat,
Around they go.
Dog is excited,
But Cat takes it slow.
Cat runs off,
Dog is closing fast,
When the Cat decides,
That it's time for a nap.
Dog isn't sure,
What, oh what, to do,
Hears a purr,
And cuddles up, too.

(i get excited)

We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise
What does it matter, when i look in your eyes?
We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars
We're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars
I get excited, you get excited too (excited) (i get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (excited) (i get excited)
I hear the sound of the subway, the sigh of the heat
The click of the visitors' heels on the street
The rattle of the taxi, the scream of the cars
The clatter of the dustbin and the beat of my heart
I get excited, you get excited too (excited) (i get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (excited) (i get excited)
I don't know why, i don't know why (i get excited)
I don't know why, i don't know why

You're in my soul
My body moves to your control
Baby, i've been thinking about you
All night long, and the neighbours are talking
I don't know why, i don't know why (excited) (i get excited)
I don't know why, i don't know why

We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise

(ian hunter)
I hear a thousand drums a million miles away
I feel the wembley rock I get a buzz off a big parade
I get the music

Get off on the music
If this is the end there I dont care

So excited
Call me a fan thats just what I am

My nerves are alive
I feel like a knife

I hear a choir singing way up above the sea
I feel the sound a-changing as the night rocks a spell on me

Locomotive Breath
[Jethro Tull]
In the shuffling madness
Of the locomotive breath
Runs the all time loser
Headlong to his death
And he feels the piston scraping
Steam breaking on his brow
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train, it won't stop going
No way to slow down, oh
He sees his children jumping off
At stations one by one
His woman and his best friend
In bed and having fun
And oh, he's crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train, it won't stop going
No way to slow down, oh
No way to slow down
He hears the silence howling
When he catches angels as they fall
And the all time winner
Has got him by the balls
Oh, and he picks up Gideon's Bible
And it's open at page one
I think God, he stole the handle
And the train, it won't stop going
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down

Take It As It Comes
Time to live
Time to lie
Time to laugh
Time to die
Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Dont move too fast
If you want your love to last
Oh, youve been movin much too fast
Time to walk
Time to run
Time to aim your arrows
At the sun
Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Dont move too fast
If you want your love to last
Oh, youve been movin much too fast
Go real slow
You like it more and more
Take it as it comes
Specialize in havin fun
Takes it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Dont move too fast
If you want your love to last
Oh, youve been movin much too fast
Movin much too fast
Movin much too fast

Pinkle Purr
Tattoo was the mother of Pinkle Purr,
A little black nothing of feet and fur;
And by-and-by, when his eyes came through,
He saw his mother, the big Tattoo.
And all that he learned he learned from her.
'I'll ask my mother,' says Pinkle Purr.
Tattoo was the mother of Pinkle Purr,
A ridiculous kitten with silky fur.
And little black Pinkle grew and grew
Till he got as big as the big Tattoo.
And all that he did he did with her.
'Two friends together,' says Pinkle Purr.
Tattoo was the mother of Pinkle Purr,
An adventurous cat in a coat of fur.
And whenever he thought of a thing to do,
He didn't much bother about Tattoo,
For he knows it's nothing to do with her,
So 'See you later,' says Pinkle Purr.
Tattoo is the mother of Pinkle Purr,
An enormous leopard with coal-black fur.
A little brown kitten that's nearly new
Is now playing games with its big Tattoo…
And Pink looks lazily down at her:
'Dear little Tat,' says Pinkle Purr.

Ton O' Love
when love takes a back seat to life
when a man runs away from his wife
that's when you know he's in the world
when a guy tries to round up his mate
but she's gone and it's gettin' too late
that's when you know he lost his girl
so it happens all the time
don't get low just stand in line
take your turn now make your move
and crush that doubt with a ton o' luv
when woman takes a back seat to man
she has to tell him where to go if she can
and she decides to wear his ring
find a girl with the face of a clock
her hands move forward till you can't stop
she comes from above with a ton o' luv

When I was young, I was too slow. I thought I must learn to run fast by practicing to run fast, so I ran 100 meters fast 20 times. Then I came back, slow, slow, slow.

Slow Down Linda
By eric clapton
Well, if youre looking for a winner, then you know youve got to go with me.
Ive got more ashes than wednesday and you know I can brew my tea.
Im fixing to teach you everything I know,
Ill take you with me baby everywhere I go.
If I can catch you for a minute I know youll take a chance with me.
So slow down, slow down linda.
Dont you think that you could save a little time with me?
So slow down, slow down linda.
Dont you know that Ive been waiting for your company?
Ive seen you speeding down the highway when you ought to dig the scenery.
And you can wolf down your dinner in the time it takes to drink my tea.
Youre always rushing round everywhere you go,
You leave me eating dirt on the side of the road.
I cant keep running much longer you always go too fast for me.
Chorus
I think that youre getting too old to be running around,
I think that its time you thought about settling down,
So slow down, slow down linda,
Dont you know that Ive been waiting for your company.
Youre always rushing round everywhere you go,
You leave me eating dirt on the side of the road.
I cant keep running much longer, you always go too fast for me.

Locomitive Breath
In the Shuffling madess
of the locomotive breath,
runs the all time loser,
headlong to his death.
He feels the piston scraping
steam breaking on his brow

He sees his children jumping off
at stations one by one.
His woman and his best friend

Crawling down the corridor

He hears the silence howling
catches angels as they fall.
And the all time winner

Runs the all-time loser,

He feels the piston scraping --
Steam breaking on his brow --

He Decides
Cant you hear them whispering
Around you all the time
Cant you tell the difference between
Things when youre in love
I hear your voice is trembling
Everytime when hes around
Your detached engagements
In the things I say means love, oh
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be happy
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be sad
If he doesnt love you
Youre afraid that you cant go on
Living without loving
Never makes a person strong, no
If he really loves you
Let him show you that instead
I will be here with you
cause I know that youre afraid of love
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be happy
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be sad
Youll never change my mind my friend
Dont let that feeling go
This love might change your world around
In time youll have to know, oh yeah
Whether you should go
Oh yeah
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be happy
He decides whether you should smile
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be sad
Whether you should be happy
Whether you should cry
Whether you should be happy
He decides
Whether you
I know that
He decides

Alone a youth runs fast, with an elder slow, but together they go far.
A Top made of a Coconut Tree Leaf
A weaving magic on a green coconut tree leaf ;
The leaf top rotates on the childhood rod fast.
No canker, the child runs with the top of green leaf,
Which, making the rustic road dizzy, spins fast.
Moss of disgust never gathers on the spinning top;
The drooping boredom spins away, as the child runs
With the top.It withers and gets slow under hot rays.
It did spin clockwise: one wishes anti-clockwise.

Excited
Excited
Mean to me is
Ready to get something
I been waiting for
Like my permit or CD/DVD/Phone
Excited
Is one thing
I don't keep
Doing because
It's go to turn into bad luck
Excited
On the other hand
When I want something so bad it can happen
All I have to do is be patient and
It can be a good thing
Excited
Can mean so much
Like getting this feeling
When you are with someone you love so much
You just can't stop feeling like that
Excited
Is expressed on my face of how I
Feel right now
I just want to let it out and
Be crazy
Excited

Ton O Luv
When love takes a back seat to life
When a man runs away from his wife
Thats when you know
Hes in the world
When a guy tries to round up his mate
But shes gone and its gettin too late
Thats when you know
He lost his girl
So it happens
All the time
Dont get low
Just stand in line
Take your turn
Now make your move
And crush that doubt
With a ton o luv
When woman takes a back seat to man
She has to tell him where to go if she can
And she decides
To wear his ring
So it happens
All the time
Dont get low
Just stand in line
Take your turn
Now make your move
And crush that doubt
With a ton o luv
Find a girl with the face of a clock
Hands move forward til you cant stop
She comes from above
With a ton o luv (12+ times)

The Stag (ballad)
The Stag it ran through fields and woods
Flitting here darting there
Running fast from men with hoods
Fast as a hare
A bird over head cries a warning song
A warning song cries the bird
For the stag the bravest stag
Who is torn away from the herd
The gun trumpets on the still air
This frightens the stag that runs like a hare
He runs through the trees and to a pool
He stops to take a breath but then he hears, leaves fall
The gun cries again and the stag he falls
By the trees and the pool
he makes one last cry and his body goes cool
The spirit of the stag
Leaped up and flew
And frightened the men
As he galloped across the dew

Life vs Time
The greatest enemy of life is time
Time always gets in the way
No matter how much we try to avoid
It follows you around
When we laugh
When we're happy
When we're innocent
Time goes by so fast
When we're depressed
When we're blue
When we're not right
Time goes so slow
No matter how much we pray for time to go fast when we're sad
It goes slower than the three toe sloth
But life can't live without time
Time doesn't exit without life
Because there's time
Everybody tires to do things in a hurry
Thinking that time will go by fast.

the noise at noon
can be heard
between our
distances
you walk too fast
and so i followed
the procession of
your footsteps
maybe it was i who
was too slow or maybe
it was you who was
walking too fast
and then i was thinking
things over between us
you are too fast for me
i decided to change
my direction looking
for the path who shall
embrace my slow steps

Slow Motion
Slow motion, slow motion baby
We want our love to last
Everything?s so right, why try to go so fast
It?s easy to lose sight
and then the moments passed
Go easy, go easy baby
You know there?s time for us
Even though this world seems to be speeding up
Maybe we can try to slow things down
Because we need to draw the line
Because we need to make the time
Because we need to sip the wine
Because the clock is running,
and it?s going so fast
The future?s coming but it?s soon the past
It?s here today and there?s no turning back
Go lightly, go lightly baby
In time we?ll find a way
It?s never over ?till it?s over
Why rush it through?
Never pausing to admire the view
Slow motion, well if we get tired
then we can rest awhile
If we?re gonna go, we?re gonna go in style
Isn?t that what life is all abour?
