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 !

Re: Suggest a lyric for Leif Garrett
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.
