Everyday of my life they say the same old thing
Hey boy!-(oh boy)- you better wait your turn
And everyday of my life I get the same old line
Hey boy!-(oh boy)- when are you going to learn

I wanna go on the red- I wanna go on the green
I wanna go on all colors that I see in between
I wanna run all the tolls- I wanna run all the signs
I wanna run all the way across a double white line

But everyday of my life I see the same old road
Hey girl! - (oh girl) - we gotta pull up our routes
And everyday of my life I see the same old dreams
Hey girl! - (oh girl) - I need a dream I can use

I wanna go on the red - I wanna go on the green
I wanna go on all colors that I see in between
I wanna run all the tolls - I wanna run all the signs

My body is the car and my soul is the ignition
Your love will be the key and we'll jockey for position till we-
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!
We're sick and tired of waiting in line
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!
Nobody's taking our time
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!

Tire tracks and broken hearts that's all we're leaving behind
There oughta be a law and there better be a crime
There oughta be a law and there better be a crime

And every night of my life there's something holding me back
Hey girl! - (What is it boy) - I know it's time to cut loose
And every night of my life I dream of someone like you
Hey girl! - (What is it boy) - you got a dream I can use

My body is the car and my soul is the ignition
Your love will be the key and we'll jockey for position till we -
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!
We're sick and tired of waiting in line
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!
Nobody's taking our time
Peel out! Peel out! Peel out!

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
