History is filled with the sound of silken slippers going downstairs and wooden shoes coming up.
Voltaire

I've waited hours for this, I've made myself so sick
I wish I'd stayed asleep today
I never thought this day would end
I never thought tonight could ever be this close to me
The cure

At last, I met a pretty girl, she laughed and talked with me
We both walked out of the kitchen and danced in a new way
And now, I've done my time in the kitchen at parties
I've done my time in the kitchen at parties
Jona Lewie

America when will you be angelic?
When will you take off your clothes?
When will you look at yourself through the grave?
When will you be worthy of your million Trotskyites?
America why are your libraries full of tears?
-Ginsberg

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Leonard Cohen

When you knew that it was over you were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of her hair!- Windmills of your mind

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel

Dio - Holy Diver

Love is but a song we sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come wander quietly and listen to the wind
Come here and listen to the sky
Come walking high above the rolling of the sea
And watch the swallows as they fly

Mimi and Richard Fariña

From the heart
It's a start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothing's strange
People, people we are the same
No we're not the same
'Cause we don't know the game
What we need is awareness, we can't get careless

Public Enemy

Now the hallway, now the doors
Locking out your deathlike chores
Locking in what's left to score
Coming thus, this daily thought
Heroes have so long been taught
Buying what cannot be bought
And just wouldn't you believe it

Arlo Guthrie

The order is rapidly fadin' / And the first one now / Will later be last / For the times they are a-changin. Bob Dylan
