22,000 blocks west of Western
There's a town called Reno, there is a casino
It ain't no Empress, but you can play bingo
You can bring your benzos, bottles of bennies-bennies
Layin' off the Benny's
Me and Wendy robbed up Denny's
8 blocks east of Western on Ashland
Started drinkin' O'Douls
Stopped getting smashed in, I stopped getting smashed in
22,000 blocks west of Western
It's longer than a river called Amazon
Bumpin' in a hole, a mutant child of barb Genghis Khan (?)
Bumpin' ampalaya, bumpin' in North Carolina
27,000 blocks west finer, Tonya, come on
It's like that. Come on Tonya, let's go
Don't be late, kid! Don't be late.
I take Western to Toronto to drive Tonya, LaTonya
No ex-ladyboy get-up, purple and blue-green.
Get cash, quarter-keg, 'Douls smashed like eggs carton in the trunk--Delta '88 trunk.
We got plenty of them though. Me and my brother go North.
Western, Toronto, Canada, China, Toronto. North, Canada, Toronto.
22,000 blocks west of Western
LaTonya got a gig at this place called Pancho's.
Alright Tonya, LaTonya, ladyboy LaTonya Tonya.
Packed up lasagna, we got this long tape-cord anaconda.
Bumpin' CD, MC Wanda.
Delta's like *boom* in the trunk, boomin' boomin' beats
Crush em like eggs cartons on the same street
Tonya got plenty, we got the quarter-keg of the O-D-O-U-L
Up Western toward Toronto, turn left, turn right!
Neon shines bright, bright
Welcome pal LaTonya, ladyboy LaTonya, welcome to Pancho's, welcome LaTonya.
I like that old-time rap, old-time hip-hop rap beats
2,000 blocks to go.
The kicks, snares, and hi-hats, and scratches, and skills.
Tonya gotta pay the bills.
Wanda, you got the CD tapes.
Tonya get the bills, get the purple and blue get-up.
Like eggs carton, green and cream and purple and green and black and orange.
See DeeDee got the skills, Tonya on the pole, Tonya in control, Dee's at the harem.
Up Western for an errand, Tonya get your money, get your money, get your paper.
26,000 blocks west of Western--street called Damon, I wasn't playin'
Uhh it was Western, Western Ave., Western Avenue B and C
Western Inn, Michael Western, Burn Notice Season 10
West Germany, Western, 36K East, Thournatay(?) shouldn't get a job sweepin' up streets.
Take Western to Florida, take Western to Greece, take Western bump MC Wanda on the beats, go! Long-cord anaconda.
22,000 blocks west of Western
Tonya, like eggs carton crushed in the trunk--O'Douls, crushed em in the trunk
Purple and blue, he got more
27,000 blocks west of Western (LaTonya)
There is a casino--it ain't no Empress, but you can play bingo (LaTonya)
You can drive your brother Tonya LaTonya to Pancho's
Turn right, turn left, turn up, turn down
Turn down the sheets, go to bedtown
Get ten pounds of groundround
Show-town, get down
Got 'Douls, got bats, got grills, got skills
Keep straight 98 blocks past Lake, 95th past Lake, turn straight
Go 22,000 blocks, sound-check six o'clock
Draft pick on the clock, Jueles had an R-Rock
White Castle-like bright
Front seat flimsy, get into the back plus I'm too tricky
It was Western, Western Ave, Western Avenue B and C
Western Inn, Michael Western, Burn Notice Season 10
There's a town called Reno, there is a casino
It ain't no Empress, but you can play bingo

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,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
