What are you listening to right now (2025-07)

[boredjedi]

Minding my own business in the store this evening and I come across this.
Only one. It was like it was waiting for me. So of course I had to pick it up.



And the next step



And a fitting song

[chuft]

Nice. I never saw that movie, only fragments of it

[boredjedi]

Not a bad price either for 99% metal $7.99. And working doors. Too hard to pass up.

[Buzz]

R.I.P. Ozzy Rotten

R.I.P...I was never really a fan, though...the only song I could warm up to was the punk cover version of 'Paranoid

[Buzz]

And the next step

nice..what powers the flux capacitor?...sportscandy?

Yes. Mr. Fusion. Lots of organic material. Apples, bananas etc...

Since it's 7:34 pm and just a few hours from August 1st in Australia, might as well close this one off and leave the August open.

[chuft]

What? It's the morning of July 31 in the US and Europe. Why are you closing this a day early? I just posted three videos.

This video is not available. Probably in my region. I can see what artist and song.

Try this one

Sue, turn out the lights
It's time to close up––we're through
Gotta clear it out
So let's drink up, it's past two
Girl, don't push 'em out
They can walk out on their own
How many times I gotta tell you, Bob
You gotta drink up and go home

I don't run a business
Just to talk to you all day

Clear out the backroom, Sue
Stack up the chairs
Who broke this glass?
No one really cares

Go take the trash out
And vacuum the stairs
What do I
Pay you for?

And don't forget to sweep up
The glass off the floor

Once I had plans
To fix up this place
A room where you could go to
And meet people with taste
They'd talk and they'd laugh
And forget the rat race

And I'd be just like one of those guys
With the mustache and face
Hey, help me lift up this case

Hey, I'm really sorry I blew up then
I've had no sleep
I've been up all night with my wife and brother-in-law
You know, Pete

At times, this world can seem
Just like a cold icy ball
But don't let that discourage you
'Cause you're young––take that call

And if it's my wife
Just try and stall

I was just wondering
How you get home
Do you have a boyfriend?
Or do you live alone?
I'm going your way
If you're going mine
No, I feel fine

But before you go
Let me just pass on one thing

You've got a mission in life
To hold out your hand
To help the other guy out
Help your fellow man

That's why I own this bar
They're thirsty outside
I give 'em oceans to drink
Then they drown in the tide

You've got a mission in life
To hold out your hand
To help the other guy out
Help your fellow man

That's why I own this bar
They're thirsty outside
I give 'em oceans to drink
Then they drown in the tide

They just drown in the tide
They just drown in the tide
They just drown in the tide
They just drown in the tide

[LazyPooky]

That one works. Good song.

I don't understand why people/artists make videos unavailable in other countries while the purpose to have it on YT is to get revenue.

[chuft]

Well, I've been doodling on this notepad
And I been taking telephone calls
I can tell this job's at the end of the line
And I'm ready for the fall
But I been watchin' the boss carefully
And he always seems to be havin' a ball
And then I scratch my head and wonder
Why I'm down here and he's up the hall

Now, all of my paychecks aren't worth
The paper they're printed on
I get 'em Friday
But Monday they're all gone
There must be some way to change my situation
It's time that I took up a brand new vocation

I wanna take a two-week vacation
Twenty-six times a year, add 'em up
When I fly to exotic places
My jet will be a Lear
I'll need several secretaries
Just to jot down notes

I'll wear Gucci loafers
And expensive shirts
And blue, executive, exotic coats

'Cause I, I said I wanna be a boss
(I wanna be, I wanna be)
I, I said I wanna be a boss
And I'll have people workin' under me
And this lousy job I'll toss
I, I said I wanna be a boss

Well, I'll drive in fancy cars
Well, no, maybe I'll just cruise
With a limo––and a chauffeur
TV, telephone, and booze
Tinted windows so the common folk
Can't see me here inside
Maybe every now and then for fun
I'll give some old coot a ride

Then maybe I'll slip him
A thousand dollar bill
Then he'll smile and shake my hand
And I'll put him in my will
I'm gonna count up all my widgets
And digits, and all my stuff

I'll make millions in a day
But it'll never be enough
Nope––not enough!

'Cause I, I said I wanna be a boss
And I just wanna take a four-hour lunch
And eat a steak with A1 Sauce
I, I said I wanna be a boss
And I'll buy up every stock there is
From ITT to Doctor Ross
I, I said I wanna be a boss
(I wanna be, I wanna be)

Now if I find a product I like
I'll buy up the whole company
Shave my face, and grin and smile
And then I'll sell it on TV
And everyone will know me
I'll be more famous than Howard Hughes
I'll grow a long beard and watch
Ice Station Zebra in the nude

And grow my nails like Fu-Manchu
Keep a row of specimen jars
Get other people to work for me––well
Maybe I'll buy the planet Mars, and
Build an amusement park up there
Better than old Walt's place
You'll have to be a millionaire to go
We'll smoke cigars and lounge in lace

Talk the talk of businessmen
And bosses that we are
So here's to me––the drinks are free––
'Cause I just bought this bar
Yeah––yeah, I wanna be a boss
I wanna be a boss, boss, boss!

Some kinda intergalactic boss!
