… is currently what I believe to be the Best Song EverTM. Excerpt:
And I bet she likes dogs and would never hurt a creature
She’d snowboard so high that I almost couldn’t reach her
She’d never tell a lie and she’d leave her friends to be with me

If anybody who is familiar with Tom Waits but doesn’t like him because he “can’t sing”, listen to “Georgia Lee” off of Mule Variations. I can’t imagine it being better with anybody else singing it.
Hey Pete by Ten Foot Pole
“hey pete” she said “it’s not too late
i still think that you’re just great
you need to wait in the right place
where you’ll meet a girl with good taste”
“aw, ma don’t you think i tried?
i think there’s something wrong inside
i have no problem making friends
but that’s where the story ends”
i have no problem hanging out
then i see a glimpse of doubt
and i don’t understand — what makes them not like me?
i’m just trying to be myself
but it’s so far from everyone else
and i don’t understand what makes them not like me
“hey pete i see from what you said
that the problem’s all in your head
and if you want to make a change
you must let go of being strange.”
“yeah mom the problem’s in my brain
sometimes i really think i’m insane
it goes much deeper than fear
deep down inside me i’m just weird
maybe i’m just weird
“you’re not weird pete you’re just fine
and i’m proud to say you’re mine
regardless of the strange things you’ve done
i’m so glad that you’re my son
i really think from what you said
that the problem’s all in your head
and if you want to make a change
you must let go of being strange”
