A Million Old Soldiers Will Fade Away...........
The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But it's not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.
The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
They wait for you.
And I wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin' from my broken cup
And ask me to
Open up the gate for you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.
Now all my fathers, they've gone down
True love they've been without it.
But all their daughters put me down
'Cause I don't think about it.
Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
And talk with my chambermaid.
She knows that I'm not afraid
To look at her.
She is good to me
And there's nothing she doesn't see.
She knows where I'd like to be
But it doesn't matter.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.
Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
No, I wasn't very cute to him,
Was I?
But I did it, though, because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side
And because I . . .
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Oh. my.
Indeed.
Perfect and French (of course).
And not a hope in hell - but we can dream, we can dream.

Karen,
YYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
WWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Bugger me - they had me worried for 48 minutes the c*nts.

Merlin, I had to go for a facial just after Everton scored the second goal, but scarily enough, I was calmer at 2-0, than I would have been at 0-0.
At 2-0, psychologically, they know what they have to do, and Everton start dreaming of beating United before the fat lady sings.
Bloody marvellous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5 points ahead!! Woo hoo!!!
Karen,
Once again we agree.
At 1-0 down I was thinking "oh bugger ...it's another of those Middlesborough games" but at 2-0 down I actually felt happier because I KNEW they'd have to start fighting back and once they get fired up......
Gorgeous goal from Eagles to finish it off. Feel really happy for the kid.
Later,

Hey Merlin, Keano's Sunderland will be in the Premiership next season, yay!!
It was almost guaranteed that he'd be playing against United at some point. Oh the irony.
I'm looking forward to those matches!
Karen,
So I hear (just come home and heard the Derby score). I'm sure he'll get a warm welcome as long as they lose !
Also I hear "Big Sam" has resigned from Bolton.
What's this all about ? Do you know anything up there that we don't know down here ?
Is McLaren going perhaps ?
