Your Skin Looks Good In The Moonlight
God Damn These Shaky Knees

The imagery in this song always makes me feel like I'm in a specific place and that place is totally AWESOME!!!!!  So, Thank You STEAM ENGINE.

I LOVE YOU.

Yep, listened to it twice in row on the way in to work this morning, great start to the day. Nice thread, Meg!

Post by: ALady on Oct 15, 2009, 02:09 PM
Agreed, Sparkle!  If ever I'm having a bad day, I listen to a couple different Steam Engines in a row (my favorite is 7.4.06) and that always turns things around.   :)

Think about it.
Need a bong hit.
Team Obama.
Feel the Lama.
Steam around it.
Seems like powder.
Steam around it.
Feel the Lama.
Team Obama
Need a bong hit.
Think about it.

COME ON!

(That's what I hear anyway.)

Hey MEg, when you get a chance, check out the drum solo on the 2008 bonaroo version.  It kicked major ass.

"God damn those shaky knees!"

that reminds me... i need to watch okonokos again. hard to believe it's been 3 years since that bad boy came out on digital video disc.

i feel really old now. anyway.

this is also a pretty epic version of steam engine... the rolling stone session!

so. I do believe. none of this is physical
at least not to me
so, I do believe
that anywhere it goes
t's always with me
it's not the dream
that makes you weak
it's not the night that makes you sleep
but it's a voice. and it's a choice
to call you out. or stay at home
so! I do believe
none of this is physical
at least not to me
so I do believe
that anywhere it goes
it's always with me
it's not the beast. it's not the sheets
so soft and warm. all over me
but it's the touch. you need so much
to move around on this green earth
take your money and your drugs
take your money and your drugs
to anyone who wondered
what old jebus meant to me
take him out to go diving
in red patoka sea
the brain melts in the twilight
with the boar and moving trees
your skin looks good in moonlight
and god damn those shaky knees
the fact that my heart's beating
is all the proof you need
