Odd request.
Does anyone happen to have the lyrics to Dave Alvin's "Dry River" right now?
Human lives may hang in the balance.
My heart expands / 'tis grown a bulge in't / inspired by / your beauty effulgent.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Sorry, Victor. All the Dave Alvin in the house is with the Blasters.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sorry, Victor. Though oddly enough I was just looking at some Blasters stuff on the interpipe and saw a Blasters video on cable last night.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
Victor: lyrics (and tablature, like a gift with purchase) are here.
On edit: clearly unofficial lyrics, as I suspect "pawed with sement" is a phonetic interpretation of "poured with cement".

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I love the Dresden Dolls. That is all.

I still only know "Coin-Operated Boy," from the CD you sent me, P-C, but I love that song.

Ooh, what else do you like from the CD? I must know. What do you not like? (Your answers to the latter will help make you more DEAD to me, the better for you to serve as my zombie pal.)

Definitive Oh Hell YES Likes:
"Lucky Day"
"Kick My Ass"
"Burning Down the House"
the flamenco Spider-Man theme
"Ugly Girl" (Jesus, I love this song!)
"Center of Attention" (of course)
And I always love Sweet Honey in the Rock, but I can't listen to "Wanting Memories," which of course you didn't know, because it makes me nervous-breakdown non-functional with weeping.
And those are the only titles I can recall right now, since your liner notes are at work. I like other songs, but can't think of their titles. Plus, I'm still listening to CD 1 to the exclusion of all else, including Avenue Q. So I have no comments on disc 2 yet.

Found 'em. Thanks all!
"poured with cement".
Even worse, the line is "Paved with cement."

"Lucky Day"
Phew! That was practically guaranteed.
"Kick My Ass"
Awesome. Another Garbage cover-I-didn't-know-was-a-cover is "Butterfly Collector."
"Burning Down the House"
It should be noted, for those who aren't us, that this is a cover by the Cardigans and Tom Jones.
the flamenco Spider-Man theme
Hee hee! You'd think it wouldn't work at all, but it's amazing how well it does.
"Ugly Girl" (Jesus, I love this song!)
Heh. It's so hilarious.
"Center of Attention" (of course)
Are you a Guster fan? I didn't know.
And I always love Sweet Honey in the Rock, but I can't listen to "Wanting Memories," which of course you didn't know, because it makes me nervous-breakdown non-functional with weeping.
D'oh!
Plus, I'm still listening to CD 1 to the exclusion of all else, including Avenue Q.
Dude. I'm so honored.
So I have no comments on disc 2 yet.
Ooh, you'll have to tell me when you listen. There's some good shit on that one.
