The Clan of the Cave Bague

did you ever hear what I told you?

did you ever read what I wrote you?

did you ever listen to what we played?

did you ever let in what the world said?

did we get this far just to feel your hate?

did we play to become only pawns in the game?

bye bye beautiful

bye bye beautiful

My mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun,

But mama! That’s where the fun is!

“Blinded by the Light” – Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

So the old Rocker gets out his bike
to make a ton before he takes his leave.
Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
just like it used to be.
And as he flies — tears in his eyes —
his wind-whipped words echo the final take
and he hits the trunk road doing around 120
with no room left to brake.

And he was too old to Rock’n'Roll but he was too young to die.
No, you’re never too old to Rock’n'Roll if you’re too young to die.

Jethro Tull – Too old to rock ‘n’ roll: Too young to die.

“Is a dream a lie if it don’t come true, 

or is it something worse?”

Bruce Springsteen – The River

“His skin’s all covered in slimey lumps,

with lips that slide across his cheeks,

his twisted limbs like rubber stumps,

slubberdygullions on squeaky feet.”

Genesis – The Colony of Slippermen

“Let me flow into the Ocean,

Let me flow back to the sea,

Let me be stormy, let me be calm,

Let the tide in and set me free.”

The Who – Drowned.

“I wants more wenches,

More wenches and mead.

I wants more wenches,

Mead and wenches is what I needs.”

Alestorm – Wenches & Mead

Alone in the clouds all blue

Lying on an eiderdown

Yippee! You can’t see me

But I can you

Pink Floyd w/ Syd Barrett – Flaming

Since I was no bigger than a weevil

they’ve told me I was evil

that if bad was a boot then I’d fit it.

I’ve been a wicked little lady

but I’ve been trying hard lately

ah, f**k it I’m a monster I admit it.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – The Curse of Milhaven
