Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything groovy
Wild thing
Wild thing, I think I love you
But I wanna know for sure
So come on and hold me tight
I love you.

Wild Thing (1965)

To be or not to be,
To free or not to free,
To crawl or not to crawl.
Fuck all those perfect people!
To sleep or not to sleep,
To creep or not to creep.
And some can't remember,
What others recall...
Fuck all those perfect people!

Fuck All The Perfect People - Chip'Taylor & The New Ukrainians Alt version (2012)

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can't bind your heart
There's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me.

Angel of the Morning (1966)

Be that as it may, be that as it may not be!
Jesus was a Union electrician by the sea of Galilee.
He lit up the first moving picture just to brighten up the show.
Will you be there in the last video?
