Tempus Fugitive

So you wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Well listen now to what I say
Just get an electric guitar
And take some time and learn how to play
- Counting Crows, Mister Jones (live)


And I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through
For I realized that God's a young man too
- David Bowie, Width of a Circle


In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of every glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains
- Paul Simon, The Boxer
