Tommy Stinson-Someday.....great tune about a guy still looking for his big.....something.
You've got a close eye on the world outside
From the inside of your cage
You're staring through the cracks in the drapes for a key
With a midget on your back goin blind and mean
How much could you ask for
How much would you ask for
Something of use will come
Of these worn out shoes
Something of use will come
Of these painful dues
The bastard's wearing the dresses now
He bitches no one calls him by his name
My baby she's got the blues
Another rapist grows into his running shoes
How much could you ask for
How much would you ask for
Dear god can't you just leave me alone
Said the martyr to the thief
There's not enough room in this reflection for two
And now one of us is gonna have to leave in peace
Someday something of use will come
Of these dried up tears
Something of use will come
Of the blood and the blues if we waste another year
It's always someday
You lift yourself from the gutter to the grave
They'll fax you your last rights
Well maybe I said everything is all right
Well they're just not unbearable
Yet, how much would you
Ask for, how much could you ask for
Someday something of use will come
Of these lives that we choose
Someday something of use will come
Of the blood and the blues of this wasted youth
Something of use will come.

rolling stone gives it 3 of 5 stars....not bad. Fricke is a great rock historian and it is good to see him positive with Axl.
#7255 Re: The Sunset Strip » Post your favourite song lyrics » 920 weeks ago
more Dylan....for the Luckylittle lady!
Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool's gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he not busy being born
Is busy dying.
Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover
That you'd just be
One more person crying.
So don't fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing.
As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say don't hate nothing at all
Except hatred.
Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Made everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much
Is really sacred.
While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked.
An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
It's only people's games that you got to dodge
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it.
Advertising signs that con you
Into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you.
You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks
They really found you.
A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer fit to satisfy
Insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not fergit
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to.
Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing, Ma, to live up to.
For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something
They invest in.
While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him.
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.
But I mean no harm nor put fault
On anyone that lives in a vault
But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony.
While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes
Must get lonely.
My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards
False gods, I scuff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough
What else can you show me?
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.

I think we can start and end with I don't agree with just about everything you say.:haha:
#7257 Re: Guns N' Roses » How we will know for sure that CD is done » 920 weeks ago
Baz is a jerkoff but he certainly is closer to the situation than we are. Some people just choose to believe nothing and it is evidenced by their consistent banter over hundreds of posts across multiple Gnr boards that they have been banned from. I choose to believe some, believe parts of others, and believe none of what some people say. It is called being objective. Some people have a specific agenda and it just reeks of jaded, by gone memories.
#7258 Re: Guns N' Roses » How we will know for sure that CD is done » 920 weeks ago
Pasnow.......I never said the label was holding things up..."business" is holding it up...as in money...as in arguing over money or tracklists or singles or the fact the label thinks the album is shit or Axl wants too much money or the label wants to own all the material when they are only owed one record by contract (who would own the other 20 or so songs)...or Axl wants to give them one record, conclude his contract and take all other material with him or how is the 13 million in costs going to be recouped..through royalties, a single payment??? or how is the money Axl spent on recording going to be recouped or who is going to pay for promotion and videos or who is going to get songwriting credits if your band members are salaried employees or yada yada yada. I AM NOT SAYING THE RECORD COMPANY IS TO BLAME......this shit should have been worked out YEARS ago. I am only saying you are completely naive and ignorant to think all these issues aren't being raised. And, Bringbackjunkie, I am 40 years old, went to 7 UYI concerts, been a Gnr fan since 1988, work for a Fortune 500 company in the US who is VERY familiar with how big business works (make no mistake, Axl looks at this as a business), know people who work very intimately with the touring business (Live Nation-currently promoting the VH tour-my buddy marketed the tour), have read privileged court documents and loss of income lawsuits from acts as big as Gnr, etc etc etc...
in the end, could I be wrong about this completely? Yes, but my common business sense tells me I am pretty close....and laugh all you want, but Mysteron clearly has some form of close contact with the band...as does Jarmo. Where there is smoke there is fire.
#7259 Re: Guns N' Roses » How we will know for sure that CD is done » 920 weeks ago
Did you not read my second post, two posts above yours? Read what Merck and Axl actually said! My god you are a piece of work.....and I am trying to be nice mods!
#7260 Re: Guns N' Roses » How we will know for sure that CD is done » 920 weeks ago
Merck Dec 15th 2006
"The record company refused to conclude the renegotiation until we were ready to hand over the finished album and refused to prepare a marketing campaign or commission video treatments until they had it in their hands. This is still their position as of this week. "
Axl dec 14th 2006
"In regard to a release date for the album itself certain minor and by that I do mean minor things and or additions as well as contract negotiations need to be completed and barring any unforeseen complications these things have now been adequately scheduled. Both the band and I along with our record company feel that this record deserves the proper setup and promotion."
Now, you have Mysteron saying the record company is holding up the release.....in other words, it probably means Axl has finished music and they are negotiating on all the various shit that has piled up over the last decade...literally millions of dollars of record company money and Gnr money.
