    right ten little snippets this time.
    enjoy.. most of them are extremely easy, especially #10 smile.gif

    1:
    somethin' wrong cause my mind is fading
    ghetto blastin' disintegrating

    2:
    Well Son, a funny thing about regret is
    that its better to regret something you have done than something that you havent done
    and by the way if you see your mom this weekend would you be sure and tell her...

    3:
    I tried to give you consolation
    When your old man had let you down.
    Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
    Turned my whole world upside down.

    4:
    Declinin' numbers at an even rate
    At the count of one we both accelerate

    5:
    Desperately in need of some stranger's hand in a desperate land.

    6:
    and he fills it only halfway and before I even argue he is looking out the window at somebody coming in

    7:
    father reads aloud tries to understand it , tries to maker her proud

    8:
    would you like to see something before you leave?
    perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel.

    9:
    they wanna come up real quick before they start to clown I best pull out my strap and lay them bustas down

    10:
    they're not even a real country anyway.

    "Sweat Loaf" by the Butthole Surfers
    (semi-cover of "Sweet Leaf" by Black Sabbath)

    Lyrics: (intro, spoken, no guitar):

    "Daddy, what does regret mean?
    Well son, the funny thing about regret is,
    It's better to regret something you have done,
    Than to regret something you haven't done.
    And by the way, if you see your mom this weekend,
    Be sure and tell her, SATAN, SATAN, SATAN!!!"

    Number 8 - Easy. smile.gif

    --> Pink Floyd, Summer '68.

    Actually from "Atom Heart Mother", major chill out music, I have the vinyl. Floyd was supposed to be listened to with all the crackly bits.

    Hail To The King, Baby.

    Is number 4 The Beach Boys? It's from the Surfin' USA album, can't remember the name of the song exactly, think it's "Shut down", or "Shut you down". I'll check when I get home.
