And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And, maybe, they'd be happy for a while. But february made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver. Bad news on the doorstep; I couldn't take one more step. I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride, But something touched me deep inside The day the music died. So bye-bye, miss american pie. Drove my chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', "this'll be the day that I die. "this'll be the day that I die." Did you write the book of love, And do you have faith in God above, If the Bible tells you so? Do you believe in rock 'n roll, Can music save your mortal soul, And can you teach me how to dance real slow? Well, I know that you're in love with him `cause I saw you dancin' in the gym. You both kicked off your shoes. Man, I dig those rhythm and blues. I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck, But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died. I started singin', "bye-bye, miss american pie." Drove my chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye And singin', "this'll be the day that I die. "this'll be the day that I die." Now for ten years we've been on our <b>...</b>

Episode 773: OH HAI RED COUCH! Long time, no see! Okay, now that that's been reclaimed, let's see about getting a bed for the guys. And a room. With a door that locks. It was hard to enjoy this adorable cuddlefest for fear that Marian would return home early. Oh, who are we kidding, it wasn't hard to enjoy at all - we embarrassed ourselves by turning into puddles of goo. Show's got us feeling unbearably sappy these days, but what can we do? We're helpless against such familiar and beloved lines as "I'll watch out for you." (Watch ep299 if you don't know what we're talking about. Or watch 299 anyway, just to make your life better.) Although we hope Marian keeps that couch scotchguarded... Speaking of couches, last night all our favourites - Silvia, Igor, Sam & Dennis - piled on together for a videochat. We'll have subs up at some point, but in the meantime, support the source! rtl-now.rtl.de Also, since you're going to ask, the song used in the beginning is Brandi Carlile's "The Story." * (Nospoilers in the comments, pls.

Paper Lace - Billy don't be a Hero 1974 The marchin' band came down along Main Street The soldier-blues fell in behind I looked across and there I saw Billy Waiting to go and join the line And with her head upon his shoulder His young and lovely fiancee From where I stood, I saw she was cryin' And through her tears I heard her say "Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life" "Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife" And as he started to go she said "Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow" "Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me" The soldier-blues were trapped on a hillside The battle raging all around The sergeant cried "We've got to hang on, boys" "We got to hold this piece a'ground" "I need a volunteer to ride up" "And bring us back some extra men" And Billy's hand was up in a moment Forgettin' all the words she said She said "Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life" "Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife" And as he started to go she said "Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow" "Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me" I heard his fiancee got a letter That told how Billy died that day The letter said that he was a hero She should be proud he died that way I heard she threw that letter away (Instrumental)
