Happiness is a warm gun

a greasey spot on the road

a dead gunslinger
Now he's just an old man that no one believes
says he's a gunfighter, the last of the breed
and there are ghosts in the street seeking revenge
calling him out to the lunatic fringe
now he's out in the traffic checking the sun
and he's killed by a car as he goes for his gun
So much for the smell of the black powder smoke
and the stand in the street at the turn of a joke
so much for the smell of the black powder smoke
and the stand in the street at the turn of a joke --- Ballad Of the Last Gunfighter, Guy Clark


my reactions are too slow
my reflexes are gone
been a long time since I played cowboys and indians
or junior g-man
but it was a lot of fun
bang bang you are dead
fall down and lay there still as you can
with a big grin on your face

copy paste quote for the hell of it
"Prosodic structure" is important in language contact and lexical borrowing. Linguist Ghil'ad Zuckermann demonstrates that in "Israeli" (his term for Modern Hebrew), the XiXéX verb-template is much more productive than the XaXáX verb-template because in morphemic adaptations of non-Hebrew stems, the XiXéX verb-template is more likely to retain — in all conjugations throughout the tenses — the prosodic structure (e.g. the consonant clusters and the location of the vowels) of the stem.
