rlcarr (Richard L. Carreiro):

Every day when the work is behind you
And the shop and the store put the lock on the door.
Just get away where your worries won't find you
If you like, well I'll tell you more.
Don't let the day get the better of you
When the evening comes there's so much to do.
You'd better put on your vest and wear a smile
Just come along with me a while.
Cuz I tell you:
I know a place where the music is fine
And the lights are always low.
I know a place where we can go.

At the door there's a man who will greet you
Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs
Soon, I'm sure you'll be tapping your feet
Because the beat is the greatest there.
All around there are girls and boys,
It's a swinging place, a cellar full of noise
It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow
You gotta come along right now,
Cuz I tell you:
I know a place where the music is fine
And the lights are always low.
I know a place where we can go.

Well, all around there are girls and boys,
It's a swinging place, a cellar full of noise
It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow
You gotta come along right now,
Cuz I tell you:
I know a place where the music is fine
And the lights are always low.
I know a place where we can go.

I know a place where we can go.
I know a place where the lights are low.
You're gonna love this place I know.

I know a place where we can go.
I know a place where the lights are low.
You're gonna love this place I know.

"I Know a Place"
 Petula Clark

(a.k.a. the Animato song)

therese (Suntioinen Therese M.):


        Our written history is a catalogue of crime
        The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time
        The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild
        The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as it's child

                               -- Sting
                       		  Dream of the Blue Turtles
