Hobo Jungle

[P&R Pete]

One for a dad, one for his son.

Ms. D, the door is always open. Always.

[2railjon]

Jon, D has never seen the trains run. Imagine that.

I think the wait will be worth it. That's what makes the holidays so magical!

D......... Great choice in beers, Red Stripe is wonderful!!!!

Pete, those lanterns are beautiful!, You're a class act.

Tramp, your drawing of the babe grabbing her hooters deserves some recognition as well. WOW!!!

[Tramp]

The Boston and Maine lamp is hanging lit from my dining-room curved rafter. Damn me!

Here's another toast to you hobos. Words? What the hell are words?

[San Diegan]

A fine set of lamps from Petey, Tramp. I believe they would be just the thing to have in an otherwise darkened room and just sit there and think things over.

Words

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care


My lips are moving and the sound's coming out
The words are audible but I have my doubts
That you realize what has been said
You look at me as if you're in a daze
It's like the feeling at the end of the page
When you realize you don't know what you just read

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin' at all

I might as well go up and talk to a wall
'Cause all the words are having no effect at all
It's a funny thing am I all alone

Something has to happen to change the direction
What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression
It's a sorry state I say to myself

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin' at all

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care

Let me get by
Over your dead body
Hope to see you soon
When will I know
Doors three feet wide with no locks open
Walking always backwards in the faces of strangers
Time could be my friend
But it's less than nowhere now
Less than nowhere now
Less than nowhere now
Nowhere now
Ow ow ow

Pursue it further and another thing you'll find
Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind and no one notices
I think I'll dye my hair blue

Media overload bombarding you with action
It's getting near impossible to cause distraction
Someone answer me before I pull out the plug

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin' at all

What are words for when no one listens anymore
What are words for when no one listens
What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin' at all

Do you hear me
Do you care
Do you hear me
Do you care
Tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
Tell me what are words for
Do you care
Tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
So tell me what are words for
Do you care
So tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
Tell me what are words for
So tell me what are words for
Do you care
So tell me what are words for
Do you hear me
Tell me what are words for
So tell me what are words for
Do you care
So tell me what are words for

Jon,
Where ya plant yourself when the day is done?

[2railjon]

Capt. Turk, email me and we'll see if we can't drain a tankard or two!!!!

[Tramp]

Pete, how do you blow out those lanterns without burning your finger? Sober? Fresh box in, by golly.

[2railjon]

I'd like to be buried Indian-style, where they put you up on a high rack, above the ground. That way, you could get hit by meteorites and not even feel it.

[Tramp]

Jon, you at it this early? You are a hero, brother. No doubt about that.

[P&R Pete]

Tramp, are you blowing? Try sucking.

Oh, and, lower the wick.

[2railjon]

Thanks, Tramp! It's reassuring to know that I meet the unusually high standards I've set for myself.

[2railjon]

Pete says:

Tramp, are you blowing? Try sucking.

Oh, and, lower the wick.

Jon says:

[2railjon]

I can still recall old Mister Barnslow getting out every morning and nailing a fresh load of tadpoles to the old board of his. Then he'd spin it round and round, like a wheel of fortune, and no matter where it stopped he'd yell out, "Tadpoles! Tadpoles is a winner!" We all thought he was crazy. But then we had some growing up to do.

[San Diegan]

Jon,

That must be powerful acid. Do you see tangerine trees and marmalade skies? Cellophane flowers of yellow and green?

Picture yourself on a train in a station,
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties,
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstyle,
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes.

San

[Tramp]

Sucking? I thought that was for women only. Pete, sometimes it's hard to lower the wick.
