Bustin' a move on Park Ave. It's summer here!!

You're on a mission and your wishin'
Someone could cure your lonely condition
Lookin' for love in all the wrong places

No fine girls just ugly faces
From frustration first inclination
Is to become a monk and leave the situation
But every dark tunnel has a light of hope
So don't hang yourself, with a celibate rope

Your movie's showin', so you're goin
Could care less about the five you're blowin'
Theater gets dark just to start the show
Then ya spot a fine woman sittin' in your row

She's dressed in yellow, she says "Hello,
come sit next to me you fine fellow."
You run over there without a second to lose
And what comes next hey bust a move

In this city ladies look pretty
Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty
Tell a funny joke just to get some play
Then you try to make a move and she says, "No way"
Girls are fakin'
goodness sakin'
They want the man who brings home the bacon
Got no money and you got no car
Then you got no women and there you are

Some girls are sadistic, materialistic
Lookin' for a man makes them opportunistic
They're lyin' on a beach perpetrating a tan
So a brother with the money can be their man
So on the beach you're strollin' real high rollin'
Everything you have is yours and not stolen

A girl runs up with somethin' to prove
So don't just stand there bust a move

Your best friend Harry has a brother Larry
In five days from now he's gonna marry
He's hopin' you can make it there if you can
Cause in the ceremony you'll be the best man
You say neat-o, check your libido
And roll to the church in your new tuxedo
The bride walks down just to start the wedding
And there's one more girl you won't be getting
So you start thinkin' then you start blinking
The bridesmaid looks and thinks that you're winking
She thinks your kinda cute so she winks back
And now your feelin' really fine cause the girl is stacked
Reception's jumpin' bass is pumpin'
You look at the girl and your heart starts thumpin'
Says she wants to dance to a different groove
Now you know what to do G; bust a move
Ok, thats a good one. Now its stuck in my head, instead of, "Party Rock is in the House tonite........

We got alittle sunshine right now, but suppose to Rain for the next week!



PS, in vegas, it was COLD everyday.........but should be back to sunny/nice today.
29 degrees this morning in NY
and windy as a March lion... busted a move w/ hat, scarf and gloves today

J-M, I don't know the song you've quoted, but I have one that means "summer" to me -- "Centerfield," by John Fogerty. ("Put me in coach, I'm ready to play ...")

Only 9 more days till Opening Day at Wrigley Field!
Agree with you there Sue. I had John Fogerty sitting behind me at a World Series game
like...........20 years ago when the A's were IN it. lol He would yell, I GOT IT, anytime a foul
ball was hit.........and nowhere near us. lol Good guy. Still touring. yay.
I'm ready to play, Today!


RAIN here.


For me, it's Lovin' Spoonful's

"Summer in the City"

All around, people looking half dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city


and Light My Fire by The Doors
they played it on the am radio, it was every other song; when I was at Summer Horse Camp for 2 or 3 weeks when I was, say 12 or 13? Just the opening organ music takes me back there...
