San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 81 Dear All Deadheads, I just got a giant list of lyrics from another deadnetter. There were only a couple of holes in them. I thought it would be fun for everyone to look at these song fragments and help me fill in the blanks. Unless you have the sheet music for these, there is no "right" answer, so feel free to post your guesses on the net. It will be interesting to see the variety of responses. I will also, just for fun, give a few song phrase fragments and see if you can guess where they come from: from Cosmic Charlie: Woke up waiting for a windy day Cat on I (?) since the first of February Mama keeps saying that the wind might blow But standing here I say I just don't know. alligator: Teeth big and pointy, and his eyes were bugging out Contract the union, put the ??? to ??? Screaming and yelling, he was liking his chops He never run, he just stumbles and hops Peggy-o Come steppin' down the stairs Pretty Peggy-O Come steppin' down the stairs Pretty Peggy-O Come steppin' down the stairs, holding back your yellow hair In the hand ??? ??? , William-O. So Far from Me: You say you want to try again well you don't realize that I have a better end in mind It doesn't seem you really have to close your eyes to see Though I hope you don't need me You are so far from me There was something I had caught inside ? ? ? ? It doesn't seem you really have to close your eyes to see you have been all you'll be it's just you babe and we can't relate at all It doesn't seem you really have to close your eyes to see Though I hope you don't need me You are so far from me Now for some fragments: What songs do these come from? 1) the great white sperm whale, 2) A knife in the back 3) catch colt 4) Hide the ones in trouble 5) the restless heart keeps flying, There is a little trich to the last two. Have fun, Andy Bindman
