01. Put your music player on shuffle
02. The first lines of twenty songs = a poem; the first line of the twenty-first song is the title


(Roy and I are laughing our heads off - this actually works pretty well!)

She married when she was twenty

When I find myself in times of trouble mother mary comes to me
Satellite in my eyes
These are the days of the open hand
Oh I can't keep it in, I can't keep it in, I've gotta let it out

When you're quiet, but your eyes are saying everything I need to know
There's such a high wind blowin'
And I like cream in my coffee
Tired of drifting, searching, shifting from town to town

Let me teach you how to dance
Every night I'm lying in bed holding you close in my dreams
Oh everything I do I do for you
So here we are tonight you and me together


My life is brilliant...
What, was I too early? Oh, sorry. Should I...
You say, why does everything revolve around you?
Ground Control to Major Tom

Imagine there's no heaven
I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things
Cigarettes and whiskey and wild wild women
At last my love has come along
