my version of a somewhat mushy holiday greeting - the joe
cocker version of this is playing on the radio right now and
it hits the spot, it does. so here tis...

With A Little Help From My Friends
Lennon/McCartney

What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me ?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone ?)
How do I feel by the end of the day,
(Are you sad because you're on your own ?)
No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.
Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine,
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
with a little help from my friends.

Humble thanks, Alexa, for a fabulous thread - just found it today.

Excerpt from one of my all-time favorites:

BRING IN 'DA NOISE, BING IN 'DA FUNK

'Da Voice:

Bring 'Da Noise Bring 'Da Funk
Bring 'da best you got
Ain't 'bout winnin' or losin' but
Lovin' livin'/livin' lovin'
Livin' the sh*t you do
When you bring 'da noise
You betta bring 'da funk
Cuz a chump a try ta punk ya
But can't if you real
Ain't 'bout
Dealin' wit' no bogus sh*t
New sh*t old sh*t
Long as it be bold...
Bring it!
