Tonights Lyrics, Part 2
Little ditty about Jack and Diane,
Two american kids growing up in the heartland.
Jackie gonna be a football star.
Diane's debutante backseat of Jackie's car.
Sucking on a chili dog outside the tasty freeze
diane's sitting on jackie's lap
got his hand between her knees
jackie says hey diane, lets run off, find a shady tree
dribble off those bobby brooks
let me do what I please
oh yeah, life goes on,
long after the thrill of living is gone
oh yeah, life goes on,
long after the thrill of living is gone.
they walk on.
jackie sits back, collects his thoughts for a moment
scratches his head and does his best james dean
well there, diane, we oughta run off to the city
diane says baby, you aren't missin a thing
and jackie say, oh yeah, life goes on
long after the thrill of living is gone
oh yeah, i say, life goes on
long after the thrill of living is gone
so let it rock, let it roll,
let the bible belt come and save my soul
hold on to 16 as long as you can
changes come around real soon
make us women and men.
oh yeah, life goes on
long after the thrill of living is gone
oh yeah, life goes on
long after the thrill of living is gone

I do realize that these lyrics are posted way back somewhere on my page. But they seem to fit with my theme. So, back to who I really am...
I believe in love. I believe first loves are the best, and everything after that is an attempt to fix the mistakes you made. I believe in marriage, because I believe commitment is a lot more than a few words. I believe that you should share, of your soul, your heart, your mind, and your bank account. I believe that if you aren't having good sex atleast three times a week, things are probably getting a little too..comfortable. I believe if you haven't had any sex in 2 years, you have a undeniable right to complain to any friend who speaks of adult relations to you. I believe a girl should love her daddy, her daddy's car, and her daddy's football team. I believe the best angels are confused. I believe that tortured souls work too hard, and that innocence should be protected at all costs, because it fades so quickly. I believe the only games worth playing are hide and seek, shoots & ladders, and poker. I don't believe people should play games with each other, however. I believe straight up honesty is the answer to all problems. I believe if you want something, you go after it. I believe you work hard for anything you have, and you appreciate it most if you've worked for it. I believe money is nice, but I believe money is not the answer to anything. I believe wearing your fingers to the bone, and coming home to a bubble bath and a shoulder rub. Of course, I still believe I should be greatful to finally be making 10 dollars an hour after all these years. I believe the only risks in life are risks worth taking. And if you don't take a risk, you have no right to complain later. I believe your hair should blow in the wind, your feet should be planted firmly on the ground, and your heart should be on your sleeve. Love unconditionally, live for today, breathe deeply, and for godsake, provide pleanty of motrin and caffiene for Monday morning.
