  40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:


    41. Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
    You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
    The wall to wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
    Ohhh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide

    You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
    And the clock waits so patiently on your song
    You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
    Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide

    Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
    But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
    Don't let the sun blast your shadow
    Don't let the milk float ride your mind
    You're so natural, religiously unkind

    Oh no love! You're not alone
    You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
    You got your head all tangled up
    But if I could only make you care

    Oh no love! You're not alone
    No matter what or who you've been
    No matter when or where you've seen
    All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
    I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
    You're not alone

    Just turn on with me and you're not alone
    Let's turn on with me and you're not alone
    Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
    Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
    Oh gimme your hands


    RIP, Bowie.
