Have to come in with a little more of "The Dan"
When black Friday comes, gonna stand down by the door
And catch the brave men when they dive from the 14th floor
OR
Daddy don't live in that New York City no more
He can't get tight every night, pass out on the bar room floor
Daddy can't get no fine cigar, but we know you're smokin' where ever you are
Daddy don't live in that New York City no more

How about A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME
I don't remember the exact lyrics but something like:
A chair is still a chair, even when no one's sitting there
But a chair is not a house, and a house is not a home when you're not there
That's the sentiment and logical/emotional flow anyway. Love it!! Greg Yes, more genius from Hal David and superbly orchestrated by Burt, written in 1964 A chair is still a chair, Even when there's one sitting there But a chair is not a house, And a house is not a home When there's no one there To hold you tight And no one there You can kiss good-night I just dug out one of my Bacharach & David Original Song albums (ca. 1970) to check the lyrics. The album contains: - Wives and Lovers - Magic Moments - In Times Like These - Make It Easy On Yourself - Loving Is A Way Of Living - A House Is Not a Home - The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance - Blue On Blue - The Story Of My Life - With Open Arms And the price is on the front cover? Try 60 cents.

Trev, you missed my favorite 2 songs from that writing team. Not in that book maybe, but I'll call them bonus tracks.
- Anyone Who Had A Heart
- Walk On By

Oh yes. Anyone Who Had A Heart. Classic interspersing of time signatures, I think in some places at every measure. And Walk On By, another piece of genius writing, I still play it from time to time. Thanks for the memory jolt

There are far too many great lyrics to list, but there's one that always makes me smile. It's an acute autobiographical observation from Boy George's "Karma Chameleon": "I'm a man; without conviction".
Lots by Pete Sinfield, particularly when with King Crimson.
Jazz relative beginner, starting at a much older age than was helpful.

From Bon Jovi
I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe, I wanna be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
I'd steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what love can do
I'll be there for you

My personal favorite currently is
Snakin' my way thru the grass
/just trying to find your way
//Barry threw that into a song we are working on the other night, and I thought it was a great line ..
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
Make your sound your own!

Perhaps my all-time favorite.
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
Just a couple of the many from Bobby D. I like.
Johnny's in the basement, mixin' up the medicine
I'm on the pavement, thinkin' about the government
The man in a trench coat, badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off
Look out kid, it's somethin' you did
God knows when, but you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alleyway, looking for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap in a pig pen
Wants 11 dollar bills – you only got 10
The lamppost stands with folded arms, its iron claws attached
To curbs 'neath holes where babies wail, though it shadows metal badge
All and all can only fall with a crashing but meaningless blow
No sound ever comes from the Gates of Eden
One I wrote that I like
Setting on the corner of a dead-end street drinking from a paper bag
MD 2020 Maddog Wine will drive you right on out of your mind
Billy
“Amazing! I’ll be working with Jaco Pastorius, Charlie Parker, Art Tatum, and Buddy Rich, and you’re telling me it’s not that great of a gig?
“Well…” Saint Peter, hesitated, “God’s got this girlfriend who thinks she can sing…”

Hello, Darlin'
First time I saw Conway Twitty, he came on stage and started with that song. I was a 15 year old kid - what an impression it made.
