Said we're running out of time What do you mean? Ohh ohh ohh What do you mean? Better make up your mind What do you mean?

(Give it back back back) Said we're running out of time What do you mean? (Give it back back back) Ohh ohh ohh What do you mean? Better make up your mind What do you mean? "Amarillo Sky"-Jason Aldean He gets up before the dawn; Packs a lunch an' a thermos full of coffee. It's another day in the dusty haze; Those burnin' rays are wearin' down his body. The diesels worth the price of gold; It's the cheapest grain he's ever sold, But he's still holdin' on. He just takes the tractor another round, An' pulls the plow across the ground, And sends up another prayer. He says: "Lord, I never complain, I never ask: 'Why?' "Please don't let my dreams run dry, "Underneath, underneath this Amarillo Sky." That hail storm back in '83, Sure did take a toll on his family. But he stayed strong and carried on, Just like his Dad and Granddad did before him. On his knees every night, He prays: "Please let my crops and children grow," 'Cause that's all he's ever known. He just takes the tractor another round, An' pulls the plow across the ground, And sends up another prayer. He says: "Lord, I never complain, I never ask: 'Why?' "Please don't let my dreams run dry, "Underneath, underneath this Amarillo Sky." [Instrumental Break] An' he takes the tractor another round. (Another round.) Another round. (Another round.) Another round. An' he takes the tractor another round, another round. He says: "I never complain, I never ask: 'Why?' "Please don't let my dreams run dry, "Underneath, underneath this Amarillo Sky. "Underneath this Amarillo Sky." "Love Yourself"-Justin Bieber For all the times that you rain on my parade And all the clubs you get in using my name You think you broke my heart, oh girl for goodness sake You think I'm crying on my own, well I ain't And I didn't wanna write a song Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care I don't but, you still hit my phone up And baby I be movin' on And I think you should be somethin' I don't wanna hold back, maybe you should know that My mama don't like you and she likes everyone And I never like to admit that I was wrong And I've been so caught up in my job, didn't see what's going on But now I know, I'm better sleeping on my own Cause if you like the way you look that much Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin' You should go and love yourself And when you told me that you hated my friends The only problem was with you and not them And every time you told me my opinion was wrong And tried to make me forget where I came from And I didn't wanna write a song Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care I don't but, you still hit my phone up And baby I be movin' on And I think you should be somethin' I don't wanna hold back, maybe you should know that My mama don't like you and she likes everyone And I never like to admit that I was wrong And I've been so caught up in my job, didn't see what's going on But now I know, I'm better sleeping on my own Cause if you like the way you look that much Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin' You should go and love yourself [Instrumental] For all the times that you made me feel small I fell in love, now I feel nothin' at all Had never felt so low when I was vulnerable Was I a fool to let you break down my walls? Cause if you like the way you look that much Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin' You should go and love yourself Cause if you like the way you look that much Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin' You should go and love yourself "Car Radio"-Twenty One Pilots I ponder of something great My lungs will fill and then deflate They fill with fire Exhale desire I know it's dire My time today I have these thoughts So often I ought To replace that slot With what I once bought 'Cause somebody stole My car radio And now I just sit in silence Sometimes quiet is violent I find it hard to hide it My pride is no longer inside It's on my sleeve My skin will scream Reminding me of Who I killed inside my dream I hate this car that I'm driving There's no hiding for me I'm forced to deal with what I feel There is no distraction to mask what is real I could pull the steering wheel I have these thoughts So often I ought To replace that slot With what I once bought 'Cause somebody stole My car radio And now I just sit in silence I ponder of something terrifying 'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind I find over the course of our human existence One thing consists of consistence And it's that we're all battling fear Oh dear, I don't know if we know why we're here Oh my, Too deep Please stop thinking I liked it better when my car had sound There are things we can do But from the things that work there are only two And from the two that we choose to do Peace will win And fear will lose There's faith and there's sleep We need to pick one please because Faith is to be awake And to be awake is for us to think And for us to think is to be alive And I will try with every rhyme To come across like I am dying To let you know you need to try to think I have these thoughts So often I ought To replace that slot With what I once bought 'Cause somebody stole My car radio And now I just sit in silence (Oooh) [x4] ​ (Oooh) [x6 & repeats in background] ​ And now I just sit in silence [x2] ​ And now I just sit And now I just sit in silence [x3] ​ And now I just sit I ponder of something great My lungs will fill and then

  • “World Hunger Day Is a Hard Day” 1 John 3:16-18
    “World Hunger Day is a Hard Day” 1 John 3:16-18 Brett Younger Senior Minister October 11, 2020 World Hunger Day We know love by this, that Christ laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for one another. How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses to help? Little children, let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action. Ivan has a great voice, and I like trying to remember my high school espanol. Erica knows how to lead a prayer. Julia’s children’s sermon would make anyone of any age want to share. We have read ten passages of scripture, which is a lot, though there are, by one count, 3,000 verses on hunger in the Bible. I still wish it was not World Hunger Day. Some of you do, too. World Hunger Day is hard. We would rather not think about hungry children. When the images of starving preschoolers appear on the screen we watch only long enough to avoid seeming heartless. World Hunger Day costs money. Our finances are confusing right now. Some of us have spouses who want to give more than we want to give. World Hunger Day does not make the church popular. People have been giving to a variety of causes. We worry about criticism that the church is always asking for money. Feeding hungry children does not increase church attendance. World Hunger Day does not make the preacher popular.

  • Broadway and Tin Pan Alley Introductory Essay
    Broadway and Tin Pan Alley Introductory Essay “Way Down Upon the Hudson River: Tin Pan Alley's New York Triumph” Rachel Rubin, Professor of American Studies, University of Massachusetts Broadway in the 1920s was a showcase for the sweeping changes transforming American culture in the early 20th century, including new roles for women, the mixing of social classes in new settings like Prohibition-era speakeasies and creative innovation by African Americans in jazz clubs and music halls. Sons of immigrants from Europe -- including the Gershwins, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern and Harold Arlen -- made up a large percentage of the new word and music smiths writing for Tin Pan Alley and Broadway’s musical revues. Their syncopated rhythms borrowed from the jazz craze and their lyrics helped create a vibrant, witty new American argot. Tin Pan Alley and Broadway contributed such classic standards as “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” (Berlin), “I Got Rhythm” (Gershwin and Gershwin), “Ol’Man River,” (Kern and Hammerstein), “Stormy Weather” (Arlen and Koehler), “Ain’t Misbehavin’” (Razaf, Waller, Brooks), “Anything Goes” (Porter) and many more. These songs formed the musical backdrop of an era. The production of these songs also became big business. The first major book written about Tin Pan Alley was published in 1930 by Harvard professor Isaac Goldberg, and it was subtitled “A Chronicle of the American Popular Music Racket.” Goldberg’s humorous use of the word “racket” captured something about the origins of the name “Tin Pan Alley” given to the music composed by poorly-paid songwriters banging away in cubicles in downtown New York City on cheap pianos.

    My name is Keith Heidorn. If you asked me to describe myself in the context of the Weather Doctor, I would tell you that I am both an artist and a scientist who is deeply involved with the weather and other atmospheric phenomena on many levels. I have had a love affair with the weather for about 45 years. You see, I think that weather is the most sensual aspect of life, stimulating all my senses at one time or another and often several at once. I was born in Chicago and grew up in northeastern Illinois where I first fell in love with the weather.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.
