My life belongs to me, my love belongs to those who can see it.

This song ain't black or white and as far as I know it don't infringe on anyone's copyright.
Some got rabies, some got fleas, some got incurable diseases from this cockamamie business.

And I think that's basically where i've always been at. I'm just a skiffler, you know. Now I do posh skiffle, that's all it is.
There's a bottomless heart hooked into all of you and it's wondering how much you care.

The nicest thing is to open the newspapers and not to find yourself in them.
It is better to be an outspoken atheist than a hypocrite.
