The Lord is my temple, God is by my side/
You pay rates on that temple, build materials at the site/
He gives reasons to get through the day/
He doesn't have rinse action, He just says...

The humanity I know, watched the warmth blow away
So don't let the world bring you down
Not everyone here is that f***ed up and cold
Remember why you came and while you're alive
Experience the warmth before you grow old

Not a strange lyric, but a strange song title:
"Death May Be Your Santa Claus", Mott the Hoople.

I am not the type of dog that could keep you waiting for no good reason
Run a carbon-black test on my jaw
--hairshirt, REM
I know you've seen her, she's a sad tomato, she's three miles of bad road
--Crush with eyeliner, REM
and heck, I'll just post this whole song. I love its sound but haven't a clue what any of it means 
Swan, Swan Hummingbird--REM
Swan swan hummingbird
Hurrah we are all free now
What noisy cats are we
Girl and dog he bore his cross
A long low time ago people talk to me
Johnny Reb what's the price of fans
Forty a piece or three for one dollar?
Hey captain don't you want to buy
Some bone chains and toothpicks?
Night wings her hair chains
Here's your wooden greenback sing
Wooden beams and dovetail sweep
I struck that picture ninety times,
I walked that path a hundred ninety,
Long, low time ago, people talk to me
A pistol hot cup of rhyme
The whiskey is water, the water is wine
Marching feet, Johnny Reb, what's the price of heroes?
Six in one, half dozen the other,
Tell that to the captain's mother,
Hey captain don't you want to buy,
Some bone chains and toothpicks?
Night wings, her hair chains
Swan, swan, hummingbird
Hurrah, we are all free now
What noisy cats are we
Long, low time ago, people talk to me
A pistol hot cup of rhyme,
The whiskey is water, the water is wine

Up to buy, Katie buys a kitchen-size, but not Mae Ann
