IF: signs

"CORNBREAD"
In the 40's Kilroy Was Here. In the late 60's and early 70's there was CORNBREAD. Phillies grand daddy of modern day graffiti. Thats right NY, he's the guy who started the writing on the wall. Darryl A. McCray " Cornbread" to me, started spraying his name as a way to get attention of a certain girl. (go figure). By the time he was done he had tagged every subway, trolly and bus route in Philly , not to mention a few police cars and wagons, just for fun. His biggest feats though were tagging the side of the elephant in the Philly Zoo, the top floor of a skyscraper being constructed right near City Hall, and the Jackson 5's jet (thats right he did lil michael jackson's and his brothers plane) when it landed in the "city of brotherly love" for a concert. It was still there when they returned to California.
....... but in the end he had to scrub clean every wall in Philly with his name on it. Today he's 52, still lives in Philly and works keeping youngsters from doing as he did in his prime. ....... but i gotta tell ya it was something to see, everywhere u went, he was there. I know cause i was there. HAHAHAHA !!! .....or was I?
Also, wanna thank everyone who gave me ideas as to how to finish the bottonm pic, in last weeks post. I did 2 both are posted now on my other blog, if anyone cares to look at some bad art.

IF: neighbor


(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Neighbors, neighbors, neighbors
Have I got neighbors?
Have I got neighbors?
All day and all night

Neighbors
Have I got neighbors?
Ringing my doorbells
All day and all night

Ladies, have I got crazies?
Screaming young babies
No piece and no quiet
I got T.V.'s, saxophone playing
Groaning and straining
With the trouble and strife

Is it any wonder
Is it any wonder
Is it any wonder
That we fuss and fight

Neighbors, do unto strangers
Do unto neighbors
What you do to yourself, yourself, yourself

Is it any wonder
Is it any wonder
Is it any wonder
That we fuss and fight

Neighbors do unto strangers
Do onto neighbors what you do to yourself
Yourself, yourself, yourself
Neighbors, neighbors, neighbors

Neighbors, neighbors, neighbors
Do yourself a favour
Don't you mess with my baby
When I'm working all night
You know that neighbors
Steal off my table
Steal off my table
And doing alright, alright, alright

Neighbors do unto strangers
Do unto strangers
What you do to yourself
