Billy Joel's Don't Ask Me Why
BILLY JOEL "Don't Ask Me Why"
All the waiters in your grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why
All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calendar's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why
You can say the human heart is only make believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
Of the accidents you leave
As sure as I'm a victim of desire
All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why
Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, "parlez vous francais"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why

Born to be Wild.
He’s been playing “We’re not going to take it anymore” at the end of his speeches.
I think that’s very appropriate.
Duke of Earl.
“My way” by Frank Sinatra.
How about Flight of the Valkyries, its an apt choice especially after reading this article:
According to a 1990 Vanity Fair interview, Ivana Trump once told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that her husband, real-estate mogul Donald Trump, now a leading Republican presidential candidate, kept a book of Hitler’s speeches near his bed.
“Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed ... Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist,” Marie Brenner wrote.
Hitler was one of history’s most prolific orators, building a genocidal Nazi regime with speeches that bewitched audiences.
“He learned how to become a charismatic speaker, and people, for whatever reason, became enamored with him,” Professor Bruce Loebs, who has taught a class called the Rhetoric of Hitler and Churchill for the past 46 years at Idaho State University, told Business Insider earlier this year.
“People were most willing to follow him, because he seemed to have the right answers in a time of enormous economic upheaval.”
When Brenner asked Trump about how he came to possess Hitler’s speeches, “Trump hesitated” and then said, “Who told you that?”
“I don’t remember,” Brenner reportedly replied.
Trump then recalled, “Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of ‘Mein Kampf,’ and he’s a Jew.”
Brenner added that Davis did acknowledge that he gave Trump a book about Hitler.
“But it was ‘My New Order,’ Hitler’s speeches, not ‘Mein Kampf,’” Davis reportedly said. “I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I’m not Jewish.”
After Trump and Brenner changed topics, Trump returned to the subject and reportedly said, “If, I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them.”
In the Vanity Fair article, Ivana Trump told a friend that her husband’s cousin, John Walter “clicks his heels and says, ‘Heil Hitler,” when visiting Trump’s office.
Twisted Sister: “We’re Not Going to Take It!”
WAIT! That is what he plays at the end of each event! He already has picked a theme song!
We gotta get outta this place.
“Why you Wanna Come Around Here Like That?”

1. Magic Carpet Ride, Steppenwolf
2. Mighty Mouse - (Here I come to save the day!)
3. And for the new National Anthem - Do Wah Diddy, Manfred Mann
Theme from Lavern and Shirley
“I Won’t Back Down” would be appropriate.
Aerosmith - Back in the Saddle!
(they’re American, there’s the cowboy theme to piss off the so-sensitive journalists and Europeans, and it’s good rock)
Ladies and gentlemen, attention please
Come in close so everyone can see
I got a tale to tell, a listen don’t cost a dime
And if you believe that we’re gonna get along just fine
Now I’ve been travelin’ all around
I heard trouble’s come to your town
I’ve got a little somethin’, guaranteed to ease your mind
It’s called Snake Oil y’all, it’s been around for a long, long time
Way, your crops’ll burn if it don’t rain soon
Ain’t seen a drop since the tenth of June
Well, I can open up the sky, people have no fear
If you ain’t impressed yet, just tell me what you wanna hear
Well, you lost your farm so you moved to town
You get a job, they shut the factory down
Now you sit around all day long feelin’ sad and blue
You need Snake Oil y’all, tell you what I’m gonna do
I can heal the sick, I can mend the lame
And the blind shall see again, it’s all the same
Well, ain’t your President good to you
Knocked ‘em dead in Libya, Grenada too
Now he’s taking his show a little further down the line
Well, ‘tween me and him, people, you’re gonna get along just fine
It’s call Snake Oil y’all
Snake Oil y’all
Snake Oil y’all
Call Snake Oil y’all
It’s call Snake Oil y’all, it’s been around for a long, long time
