My Dragon Fly and Me
If I could be a Dragon Fly and wing my way through the sky I would never be shy just me and my Dragon Fly!
By moonlight we ride the wind chase the comets tail for fun by day we would hide from the sun our fragile wings would come undone
On darkest nights we would use fireflies as our guide we would dip and we would glide through the heavens open wide and scatter diamonds in the night sky my Dragon Fly and me...
And we would wing past our lovers silent in the night... to kiss their face in our flight much to their surprise and delight my Dragon Fly and me in sight...
Such a view do we share away up here in the air of breezes soft through our hair my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Bumper of My SUV Chely Wright
I've got a bright red sticker on the back of my car, Says: "United States Marines." An' yesterday a lady in a mini-van, Held up her middle finger at me. Does she think she knows what I stand for, Or the things that I believe? Just by looking at a sticker for the US Marines, On the bumper of my S.U.V.
See, my brother Chris, he's been in, For more than 14 years now. Our Dad was in the Navy during Vietnam, Did his duty, then he got out. And my Grandpa earned his Purple Heart, On the beach of Normandy. That's why I've got a sticker for the US Marines, On the bumper of my S.U.V.
But that doesn't mean that I want war: I'm not Republican or Democrat. But I've gone all around this crazy world, Just to try to better understand. An' yes, I do have questions: I get to ask them because I'm free. That's why I've got a sticker for the US Marines, On the bumper of my S.U.V.
'Cause I've been to Hiroshima, An' I've been to the DMZ. I've walked on the sand in Baghdad, Still don't have all of the answers I need. But I guess I wanna know where she's been, Before she judges and gestures to me, 'Cause she don't like my sticker for the US Marines, On the bumper of my S.U.V.
So I hope that lady in her mini-van, Turns on her radio and hears this from me. As she picks up her kids, From their private school, An' drives home safely on our city streets. Or to the building where her church group meets: Yeah, that's why I've got a sticker for the US Marines, On the bumper of my S.U.V. |

Hello and Welcome to the Lair.
We hope you enjoy your stay, lots of grand folks here.
To: bentfeather
Now would be a good time for me to say something pithy and poignant, wouldn't it?
Can I use the excuse that I don't do my best thinking at this hour?

"What's on your mind Bob?" At the moment, 10 ounces of a 12 ounce beer.
