Act of Love [Neil Young]

The fruit of love was in the future,
Around the corner and over the hill.
The act of love was slowly pounding,
Slowly pounding, slowly pounding.

The holy war was slowly building.
Heroes leaving for the great crusade.
Seek reward in the ever after,
Ever after, ever after.

Don't wanna have to lose you baby.
Don't want to have to take you back.
You know I'll never lose you baby,
Abuse you baby, use you baby.

You know I'll always help you baby,
But I just can't do that.
I know I said I'd help you baby,
Here's my wallet, call me sometime.

Act of love. [4X]

The fruit of love was in the future,
Around the corner and over the hill.
The act of love was slowly pounding,
Slowly pounding, slowly pounding.

Act of love. [4X]

Against the 70's [Mike Watt]

I asked him if he knew what time he had.
He said he wasn't sure, maybe a quarter past.
The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's!
I peered in his eyes as we stood in line just to have a look,
But the pages I found looked like an unbound coloring book.

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's!
It's not reality, just someone else's sentimentality...
It won't work for you...

Baby boomers selling you rumors of their history,
Forcing youth away from the truth of what's real today.
The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's!
Stadium minds with stadium lies gotta make you laugh.
Garbage vendors against true defenders of the craft.

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's!
It's not reality, just someone else's sentimentality...
Look what it did to us...

(Speakin' as a child of the 70's)

The kids against the 70's...kids against the 70's...
The kids of today should defend themselves against the seventies.

American Pie [Don McLean]

So bye, bye Miss American Pie.
Drove mc Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry.
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye,
Singin' this'll be the day that I die...
This'll be the day that I die...

Angie [7/17/93; Rolling Stones]

But Angie, Angie...
Ain't it time we said goodbye...

With no loving in our souls,
And no money in our coats,
Oh, you can't say we're satisfied...

But Angie, I still love you baby.
Everywhere I look I see your eyes.
There ain't a woman that comes close to you.
Come on, baby, dry your eyes...

Another Brick in the Wall 2 [Pink Floyd]

We don't need no education...
We don't need no thought control...
No dark sarcasm in the classroom...
Teachers leave those kids alone...
Hey, teachers, leave those kids alone!
All in all you're just another brick in the wall...

Answer [Bad Radio]

[Lyrics from Crossroads: The Unofficial Bad Radio Website]

Live for the evening, not silver and gold
Love is an answer, why haven't we been told?
Father, the lessons you taught us don't work so well
Live for the evening

All I wanna do and all that I'm saying
Is that we can find some common ground
No matter what you're wearing
We don't have to fight and die like our fathers did
Just relax for a second and use your head

Live for each other, the past is so long ago
Love is an answer, now you've been told

[rap chorus]

Chill it!

Live for the evening, the past is so long ago

All I wanna do and all that I'm saying
Is that we can find some common ground
No matter what you're wearing
We don't have to fight and die like our fathers did
Just relax for a second and use your head
