A great song by Steely Dan:
Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand
Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand
Can you show me
The shine of your Japan
The sparkle of your china
Can you show me
Bodhisattva
Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town
Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town
And I'll be there
To shine in your Japan
To sparkle in your China
Yes I'll be there
Bodhisattva

Just one more song from Rush, with beautiful lyrics on the Free Will

There are those who think that life
Has nothing left to chance?
A host of holy horrors
To direct our aimless dance

A planet of playthings
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive
The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign
Blame is better to give than receive

You can choose a ready guide
In some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide
You still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears
And kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will

There are those who think that
They've been dealt a losing hand
The cards were stacked against them
They weren't born in Lotus-land

All pre-ordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate
Kicked in the face
You can pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate

You can choose a ready guide
In some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide
You still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears
And kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will

Each of us
A cell of awareness
Imperfect and incomplete
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt
That's far too fleet

You can choose a ready guide
In some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide
You still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears
And kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will

uptowns' got its hustlers
the bowrys got its bums
42nd streets got big jim walker
hes a pool shootin son of a gun
hes big and dumb as a man can come
but he stronger than a country hos'
and when the bad folks get together at night they all call big jim boss
jus because

and they say;

you dont tug on supermans cape
you dont spit into the wind
you dont pull the mask off the old lone ranger
and you dont mess around with jim

well outta south alabama came a country boy
he say "im lookin for a man named jim
im a pool shootin boy my name william mccoy
but down home they home they call me slim

yeah im lookin for the king of 42nd street
he drive a drop top cadillac
last week he took all of my money and it may sound funny but i come to get my money back"

and they say "jack,

you dont tug on supermans cape
you dont spit into the wind
you dont pull the mask of the old lone ranger
and you dont mess around with jim"

well a hush fell over the pool room
jim he come boppin in off the street
and when the cuttin were done the only part that werent bloody were the soles of the big mans feet

yeah he were cut in bout a hundred places
and he were shot in a couple more
and you better belive they sung a different kind of story when big jim hit the floor and they say
"you dont tug on supermans cape,
you dont spit into the wind
you dont pull the mask off the old lone ranger
and you dont mess around with slim"

yeah big jims got his hat
find out where its at
its not in hustlin people strange to you
even if you do got your own custom made two piece pool cue

so you dont tug on supermans cape
you dont spit in to the wind
you dont pull the mask off the old lone ranger
and you dont mess around with slim


jim crose
dont mess around with jim

Guess I am showing my age with this one...

POWER TO THE PEOPLE
(John Lennon)

Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

Say you want a revolution
We better get it on right away
Well you get on your feet
And out on the street

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

A million workers working for nothing
You better give 'em what they really own
We got to put you down
When we come into town

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

I gotta ask you comrades and brothers
How do you treat you own woman back home
She got to be herself
So she can free herself

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Now, now, now, now

Oh well, power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people

theres a lady whos sure
all that glitters is gold
and shes buying a stairway to heaven

when she gets there she knows
if the stores are all closed
with a word she can get what she came for

theres a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
in a tree by the brook, theres a songbird who sings
sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

oh it makes me wonder
oh it makes me wonder;

theres a feeling i get when i look to the west
and my spirit is crying for leaving,

in my thoughts i have seen
rings of smoke through the trees
and the voices of those who stand looking

oh it makes me wonder
it really makes me wonder

and its whispered that soon if we all call the tune
then the piper will lead us to reason
and a new day will dawn for those who stand long
and the forests will echo with laughter

if theres a bustle in your hedgerow
dont be alarmed now
its just a spring clean for the may queen

yes there are two paths that you can go by
but in the long run
theres still time to change the road youre on

and it makes me wonder

now your head is buzzing and it wont go
in case you dont know
the pipers calling you to join him

dear lady
can you hear the wind blow?
and did you know,
your stairway lies on the whispering wind?

and as we wind on down the road
our shadows taller than our souls
there walks a lady we all know
who shines white light and wants to show
how everything still turns to gold
and if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last
when all are one and one is all
to be a rock
and not to roll

and shes buying a stairway to heaven



led zeppelin
stairway to heaven

Yeah, that one almost made me cry and I'm not a big Zepplin fan. The watching Bonnam's son do the drumming for it was fantastic. And showing the band's reaction to it was even better.

sorry for continued derailment.

every time that i look in the mirror
all these lines on my face getting clearer
the past is gone
it went by like dusk to dawn
isnt that the way
everybody's got their dues in life to pay

i know, nobody knows
from where it comes
or where it goes
i know, everybody sins
you got to lose to know
how to win

half my lifes in books written pages
live and learn
from fools and from sages
you know its true
all these things
they come back to you

sing with me; sing for the year
sing for the laughter - sing for the tear
sing with me; its just for today
maybe tomorrow - the good lord take you away

dream on
dream on
dream on
dream yourself a dream come true

dream on
dream on
dream on
dream until your dreams come true


aerosmith
dream on
