"Take this job and shove it up your ass"

Was that one by The Dead Kennedys?

Buzzcocks - Orgasm Addict

"Well you tried it just for once and found it alright for kicks, but now you've found out that it's a habit that sticks -you're an orgasm addict, an orgasm addict"

8 lines from one of my favourite dark lyricists, the late and occasionally great Warren Zevon

Well, I went to the doctor
Said, "i'm feeling kind of rough..."
"Let me break it to you son,
you're shit's fucked up!"
I said, "My shit's fucked up?!
Well, I don't see how!"
He said, "The shit that used to work,
Well, it won't work now!"

Also fantastic but I can't choose one line!

artist: Warren Zevon lyrics
title: Play It All Night Long

Grandpa pissed his pants again
He don't give a damn
Brother Billy has both guns drawn
He ain't been right since Vietnam

"Sweet home Alabama"
Play that dead band's song
Turn those speakers up full blast
Play it all night long

Daddy's doing Sister Sally
Grandma's dying of cancer now
The cattle all have brucellosis
We'll get through somehow

"Sweet home Alabama"
Play that dead band's song
Turn those speakers up full blast
Play it all night long

I'm going down to the Dew Drop Inn
See if I can drink enough
There ain't much to country living
Sweat, piss, jizz and blood

"Sweet home Alabama"
Play that dead band's song
Turn those speakers up full blast
Play it all night long

You can tell by the way I use my walk, I'm a womans man no time to talk.

Bee Gees.

I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad, the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had.

Tears for Fears

**Teacher Banok** · 22nd June 2009 00:55

And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.

Ending line to the Pink Floyd album The Wall.

Pretty much sums up life as a deepest Issan TEFL teacher

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Pink Floyd "Momentary Lapse of Reason" "Learning to Fly"

There has been no better song describing the sensation of flight! God I miss flying a plane
