Post #638: ABC - "How to be a Millionaire" - Absolutely

So it always makes me chuckle a bit when a CPA or a financial advisor says something like: "The clients will be funding that particular entity with only $8 million..."  All I can think to myself is: "Really... only... ONLY... never in my entire existence will I be able to say that I only have $8 million..."  If only (ha!) I could turn myself into a gold digger; alas, I appreciate having integrity and dignity, so I don't foresee that happening. However, in the meantime, we can let ABC tell us all about how to be a millionaire...

Until next time...

I've seen the future, I can't afford it

Tell you the truth sir, someone just bought it

Say Mr. Whispers, here come the click of dice

Roulette and blackjacks, build us a paradise

Larger than life and twice as ugly

If we have to live there, you'll have to trust me

Maybe these luxuries can only compensate

For all the cards you were dealt at the hands of fate

So tell me

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Millionaire, billionaire, trillionaire

Hardly surprising if you might consider

Loyalties go to the highest of bidders

Want my opinion? I'd give you ten to one

Give me a million, a franchise on fun

But there are millions who often get nowhere

There's just one secret I think you should share

Maybe these luxuries can only compensate

For all the cards you were dealt at the hands of fate

So tell me

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Millionaire, billionaire, zillionaire

Maybe these luxuries can only compensate

For all the cards you were dealt babe, at the hands of fate

So tell me

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?

Who wants to be millionaire?

I do, I don't, I do

Who wants to be millionaire?

I do, I don't

I've seen the future, I can't afford it

Post #637: Echo & The Bunnymen - "Never Stop" - Songs to Learn and Sing

Well, my dearest blogland readers, you might remember way, way back in December of 2012, during Week Thirty-Three: Echo & The Bunnymen, that I mentioned that this would have to be the one band that I am truly heartbroken that I never got to see perform live. However, after October 15th of this year, that heartbreak will be no more.  Not only will I get to see Echo & The Bunnymen when they pass through Dallas at House of Blues, but I also got seats in Box 1 of the balcony, which means that I am in the very front, with not a soul to block my view.  So what that I had to fork over the equivalent of a car payment for my tickets!!  I mean, it's Echo & The Bunnymen... and this world sux... and little things like going to concerts and riding my bike around the lake and reading memoirs and getting shakes from Sonic make me super happy... so don't judge me!! ;-)

Until next time...

Good God, you said

Is that the only thing you care about

Splitting up the money

And share it out

The cake's being eaten

Straight through the mouth

Poison

Poised to come back in

Season

For all the ones who lack

Reason

Measure by measure, drop by drop

And pound for pound, we're taking stock

Of all the treasure still unlocked

The love you found must never stop

The king is dead

And long live the people who aim above

All the simple stuff never understood

Like right from bad and wrong from good

Deny

That you were ever tempted by the

Lie

That there's an answer in the

Sky

Measure by measure, drop by drop

And pound for pound, we're taking stock

Of all the treasure still unlocked

The love you found must never stop

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Never stop

Measure by measure, drop by drop

And pound for pound, we're taking stock

Of all the treasure still unlocked

The love you found must never

Measure by measure, drop by drop

And pound for pound, we're taking stock

Of all the treasure still unlocked

The love you found must never stop

Never stop

(Stop stop) Never stop (Stop)

Never stop (Stop stop)

Never stop (Stop stop stop)

Never stop (Stop stop stop)

Never stop

Post #636: Billy Idol - "Dancing With Myself" - Don't Stop

If, in addition to celebrating our Nation's independence, you are also celebrating your very own independence, then you will appreciate this quote that I stumbled upon. It went a little something like this: "Relationships often create the exact number of problems that they solve..."  And with that, I'll leave you with some Billy Idol, a la "Dancing With Myself", and I'll throw in another all-time favorite in the form of "Catch My Fall"... Happy Independence Day!!!

Until next time...

On the floors of Tokyo

Or down in London town to go, go

With the record selection

And the mirror's reflection

I'm dancing with myself

When there's no-one else in sight

In the crowded lonely night

Well I wait so long

For my love vibration

And I'm dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

Well there's nothing to lose

And there's nothing to prove

I'm dancing with myself

If I looked all over the world

And there's every type of girl

But your empty eyes

Seem to pass me by

Leave me dancing with myself

So let's sink another drink

'Cause it'll give me time to think

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance

And I'll be dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

Well there's nothing to lose

And there's nothing to prove

I'm dancing with myself

If I looked all over the world

And there's every type of girl

But your empty eyes

Seem to pass me by

Leave me dancing with myself

So let's sink another drink

'Cause it'll give me time to think

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance

And I'll be dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

Oh dancing with myself

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance

If I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance

Dancing with myself

Dancing with myself

Dancing with myself

Dancing with myself
