My Attitude

For no particular reason, other than to reinforce my reputation as a grumpy bastard, here are the refrains from what are probably my two current favorite songs. (In other words, these are the things I'm yelling along with in the car these days, when I'm alone.)

The Mendoza Line, from the song "We're All in This Alone" on Lost in Revelry

Everybody thinks that "we're in this together"
And everybody wishes "always be together"
But we're all in this alone
Oh we're all in this alone
Oh we're all in this alone
And the world is all alone

Harley Poe, from "Corrupting My Better Half" on The Dead and the Naked

Now Jesus died for them, it's true
But what's a poor devil to do?

Oh when the saints go marchin' in
I won't be there, 'cause I love my sin
Am I so bad that you hate me?
There was a time when I could see
My hopes and dreams, they are no more
I'm not a rich man, but blessed are the poor
Old man forgive me, I've turned away
I won't come back, so I'll have to pay

And now I've got to get some sleep, since I have wall-to-wall meeting tomorrow.

Edit, the next day: The Harley Poe song lyrics above may actually be from a song called "What's a Poor Devil to Do?" ("Corrupting My Better Half" being a different Harley Poe song, with different lyrics.) This would make sense, but it doesn't explain how I originally got the song with the wrong name attached. All research from this end has been fruitless; if I still care when I get home, I may learn the truth.
