Gangsta's Paradise - Coolio
Well we got there and there was a big sign and a chain across across the dump saying, "Closed on Thanksgiving." And we had never heard of a dump closed on Thanksgiving before, and with tears in our eyes we drove off into the sunset looking for another place to put the garbage.

But you're still alive

Peace Train - Cat Stevens I really want to run amok Let's wiggle, let's jiggle, let's really make the rafters rock Be mighty, be flighty, Come and melt the buttons on my flameproof nighty Let's do it, let's do it tonight. Let's do it, let's do it, I really want to rant and rave. Let's go, 'cos I know just how I want you to behave: No meekly, not bleakly, Beat me on the bottom with a Woman's Weekly Let's do it, let's do it tonight.

Rhinestone Cowboy - Glen Campbell
