“The Pass” by RUSH

“Proud swagger out of the schoolyard
waiting for the world’s applause
rebel without a conscience
martyr without a cause...”
and now you’re trembling on a rocky ledge
staring down into a heartless sea
can’t face life on a razor’s edge
nothing’s what you thought it would be
All of us get lost in the darkness
Dreamers learn to steer by the stars
All of us do time in the gutter
Dreamers turn to look at the cars
turn around and turn around and turn around
Turn around and walk the razor’s edge
Don’t turn your back
And slam the door on me...”
And now, for something completely different:

Black Polished Chrome, by The Doors.
The music was new
Black polished chrome
And came over the summer
Like liquid night.
The DJ’s took pills to stay awake
And play for seven days
They went to the studio
And someone knew him
Someone knew the TV showman
He came to our homeroom party
And played records...
Good evening, 21twelve, and thank you.
