Heh, heh. That's tellin' 'im, Babe! Ahem, I mean Good My Noble Ladyship. Ahem.

Wind Up

When I was young and they packed me off to school

and taught me how not to play the game,

I didn't mind if they groomed me for success,

or if they said that I was a fool.

So I left there in the morning

with their God tucked underneath my arm --

their half-assed smiles and the book of rules.

So I asked this God a question

and by way of firm reply,

He said -- I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.

So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares):

before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers --

I don't believe you:

you had the whole damn thing all wrong --

He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.

Well you can excomunicate me on my way to Sunday school

and have all the bishops harmonize these lines --

how do you dare tell me that I'm my Father's son

when that was just an accident of Birth.

I'd rather look around me -- compose a better song

`cos that's the honest measure of my worth.

In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me,

as you lick the boots of death born out of fear.

I don't believe you:

you had the whole damn thing all wrong --

He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.

If you wish to abandon the challenge it's nothing to me ... I wasn't the one who issued the challenge after all and if you can live with the dishonor of what you perceived as a slight ... well some people have lower standards of HONOR than others.
You speak of honor? You of all people … the Chief Prevaricator of the Pool? Gah! What's this world come to …

Yes, whenever I hear the phrase,

"Snot is running down his nose.

Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes."

I always think of you. </font>

Speaking of suspicion, my favorite card to get as the Greeks in Papa Khann's "Sword of Rome" boardgame is the one where I get morale points for my cities by mass executions of "Suspected Rebels".

"Suspected", and I still get to waste them.

I love it!

(And before the rest of you yahoos try to figure out what kind of car, I'll just go ahead and tell you it's a 1977 Plymouth Gold Duster with a nodding dog in the back window and rusted out wheel wells.)

Uh, was that the 225, 318 or 360 engine?

It was a '74, not a '77 Boo.. Cheap vinyl interior, slant 6, auto. Underpowered, crappy brakes, worn tires and lousy milage. Went from massive understeer to dangerous oversteer with no warning, and not enough power to get you out of trouble. The front drums were so warped that the whole car shook when you hit the brakes. Didn't even have a damn cigarette lighter in the dash, and I wouldn't take one as a gift. I'm still surprised I didn't kill myself in that one. But it was my first car, and it only cost 650 bucks.
