*** I fell off the deep end last night. Went so far, I believe I touched bottom. You came along for the ride last night. Have no idea how I was feeling inside.
Who's gonna save you, when you can no longer save yourself? Who's going to love you, when you can no longer love yourself? Who's gonna save you, when you can no longer save yourself?
I fell off the deep end last night. Went so far, I believe I touched bottom. Don't ask me no questions, I can't say why. I can't say why. I can't say why. I can't say.
Who's gonna save you, when you can no longer save yourself? Who's gonna love you, when you can no longer love yourself? Who's gonna save you, when you can no longer save yourself?
You got to save yourself. You got to save yourself. You got to save yourself. You got to save yourself.

Who I'd like to meet: Someone who can tolerate my puns, or at least nod and politely smile, even if it's just once in awhile, with a sense of humor of their own, and creative types for admiration, inspiration, infiltration and possible collaboration. People whom dullfacerobsterboy missed out on meeting but surely will get to know at some point: Nikola Tesla, Keith Moon, Gracie Allen, Steve McQueen, Sacagawea, and Betty Rubble.
I hope you can make this show. It should be a good one.
Mark your calendars because this will be our only Full Band show in July!
