Damn, I Love Bob Weir
10.09.06 (10:49 pm) [edit]Well I was drinkin' last night with a biker
And I showed him a picture of you
I said, "Pal, get to know her, you'll like her."
Seemed like the least I could do.
Cause when he's chargin' his chopper
Up and down your carpeted halls
You will think me by contrast quite proper
Never mind how I stumble and fall
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
Cause you're a sweet little softcore pretender
Somehow babe, it got hot as it gets
With your black leather chrome spiked suspenders
Your chain and your whip and your pets
Well we know you're the reincarnation
Of the ravenous Catherine the Great
And we know how you love your ovations
To the Z-rated scenes you create
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
You analyze me, tend to despise me,
You laugh when I stumble and fall
There may come a day when I'll dance on your grave
Unable to dance I will crawl across it
Unable to dance I'll crawl
Unable to dance I'll crawl
You must really consider the circus
It just might be your kind of zoo
I can't think of a place that's more perfect
For a person as perfect as you
And it's not like I'm leaving you lonely
Cause I wouldn't know where to begin
Well I know that you'll think of me only
When the snakes come marching in
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'll enjoy the ride
- The Grateful Dead
By the way, the music was written by Weir, and he sings it, but the words were actually written by Dead lyricist John Perry Barlow. Here's a pic of his three daughers. Holy shit...

Barlow is awesome. I really like that guy. He's not been blogging lately, and that's a little worrying after his bust last year...
