Suggest a lyric for Leif Garrett



The first in perhaps a very occasional series :

You have (assumedly) heard of the demise of 70's heartthrob Leif Garrett, arrested the other week for travelling on a train in LA without a ticket, and carrying drugs.

I knew I should have bought a bloody ticket, rats...

I have attached a mugshot of him for all those 70's chicks that wouldn't go out with me cos they were to wrapped up in him because he was so famous and I was a nobody, muwahahaha, hey girls ! You can have him now ! What a PRIZE catch he is !

Ooh, sorry, I got off track....

Anyway, your task is : Suggest a song lyric that either matched his situation, or does NOT match his situation. Easy huh ?

I will start :

"Homeward Bound" - Simon & Garfunkel

I'm sittin' on a railway station
Got a ticket for my destination...


Oh NO you haven't sunshine ! You're nicked !

Soul Asylum- Runaway Train

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain




Bought the ticket doesnt apply, but the madman line might.
