Time keeps movin' on,
Friends they turn away.
I keep movin' on
But I never found out why
I keep pushing so hard the dream,
I keep tryin to make it right
Through another lonely day, whoaa.

— Janis Joplin I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! (1969)

Music’s for grooving man, and music’s not for puttin’ yourself through bad changes, y’know?

An’ I don’t want much outa life,
I never wanted a mansion in the south.
I just-a want to find someone sincere
Who’d treat me like he talks,
One good man.

Please don'tcha do it to me babe, no!
Please don'tcha do it to me baby,
Either take this love I offer
Or honey let me be.

Pearl (1971)

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz? My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends

Pearl (1971)

Tomorrow never happens. It's all the same fucking day, man.
