‘“Thieving” by Lovedrug

Would you believe me if I told you
That I’m surfacing for just one thieving moment
To steal your heart

Would you believe me if I told you
That fairy tales come true
When I’m with you
I’ll free the one who falls in love again

Come on and hold you like candy on a Friday after
Making love all year
And now we’re swimming down where
Iron doors are open
And there is too much fear to breathe

A girl, a boy, a hell.
Like thieves we are…

…All in love
With stolen hearts
And we all fall down
And fall apart for love

Dance?! Alright!
But I’m giving it one last fight
I fancy not your night
I’m not…

your girl, your whore, your hell
But thieves, we are…

…All in love
With stolen hearts
And we all fall down
And fall apart for love

“Sha La La” by Martin McFaul

Hear the man, down the corner shop
The little girl by the bus station
All the pigeons in the park,
and Rita, she lives next door to me.

OOh ooh, OOh ohh
Sha la, la la, la la

All the time on the radio
And tonight on the TV show
Spreading over a spider web
And runnin’ ‘round inside your head
They sing…

OOh ooh, OOh ohh
Sha la, la la, la la

But tomorrow there’s a brand new song
Everybody’s gonna sing along
It’s the latest forest fire
It’s the new star to desire
No one sings…

OOh ooh, OOh ohh
Sha la, la la, la la

Weekend Mixtape!!! 6/26/2009

The weather here in California is a bit strange, but it’s still getting hotter.  And all I ask for, are big fluffy clouds to block the sun.

Michael Jackson passed away yesterday.  I have to admit, he doesn’t hold the same place in my heart as he did when I was younger, but he was a legend.  And I know he must have been suffering, so at least that’s over with.  May he rest in peace.

This week: Jamiroquai, The Rolling Stones, Dappled Cities, When in Rome, Delorean, Innerpartysystem, Kenna and more.

Whatever you do this weekend, drink lots of water.  You’re going to need it.  You alcoholics.  Be safe.
