Always dug this song, Mick Jagger bankrupted these guys over lifting the strings riff from the Stones, or something like that.
‘Cause it’s a bittersweet symphony this life
Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die
I’ll take you down the only road I’ve ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah

but I’m here in my mold, I am here in my mold
And I’m a million different people from one day to the next
I can’t change my mold, no,no,no,no,no

One of the unforeseen benefits of recent scandal here at home is the constant stream of fodder for the Brits.
Never mind the fact that this swaggering case of machismo wears a bow tie. Or the fact that he politely rebuffed his suitor. Or, that he couldn’t do his own bashing and needed his friend. Or that he admitted to gay bashing. Never mind all that, little Tucky C. is all man (and a champion thumb wrestler so I hear).
Me thinks Tucky just picked a fight with the wrong group of alternative lifestylers.
the smoking gun — that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud.

And Iran’s active pursuit of technology that could lead to nuclear weapons threatens to put a region already known for instability and violence under the shadow of a nuclear holocaust.
