Despair, the Sword of Damocles Hangs-over Our Existence
Edited on Sat Oct-29-05 11:26 PM by The Whiskey Priest

Or, maybe not, I might have overstated a bit.

8. In the good old days it was just music to our ears.


But these aren't the good old days. Today it is necessary to freak out for real.

5. Can't Resist ...


Sword of Damocles
The Sword of Damocles is hanging over my head
And I've got the feeling someone's gonna be cutting the thread
Oh! Woe is me, my life is a mystery
And can't you see
That I'm at the start of a pretty big downer
I woke up this morning with a start when I fell out of bed
(That ain't no crime!)
And left from my dream it was a feeling of unnameable dread
(That ain't no crime!)
My high is low, I'm dressed up with no place to go
And all I know
Is I'm at the start of a pretty big downer
Oh no no no
(Sha la la la that ain't no crime)
{Rocky Horror you need peace of mind.
I want to tell you that you're doing just fine.
You're a product of another time
So feeling low, that ain't no Crime.
(that ain't no cri-ime!)}
The Sword of Damocles is hanging over my head
And I've got the feeling someone's gonna be cutting the thread
Oh! Woe is me, my life is a misery
And can't you see
Is I'm at the start of a pretty big downer
(sha-la-la to end)

14. Dear Lord, an ex-boyfriend used that line on me once
in a letter, and to boot, he was only 19 at the time. At the time, what I perceived as a penchant for overstatement helped break the deal, when in fact, he was quite perceptive, actually, and is now a psychiatrist. Thanks for the memory. :)
