Quotes about disconnected, page 2
Fingers
Back in the days of covered wagons
A man had his own way
Whether talkin' to a woman
Or crossing the U.S.A.
No telephones were ringing
No angry words exchanged.
I wish I was back in the saddle now
Riding on the range.
Let your fingers do the walking
Call me up some time
I'm listed under Broken Hearts
Looking for a good time.
I can't reach out and touch you
You're hung up on the line
I'm your disconnected number now
And you're a private line.
Well, I used to be so happy,
When you gave good 'phone.
I could call you up from anywhere
For a little bit of home

What Do You Want From Me
I call you every hour on the telephone
I work my fingers right down to the bone
I even got you a chihuahua so you wouldn't be alone
Got you you a trailer 'bout the size of Maine
Bought a mile of interstate in your name
I've given you everything
Baby, what do you want from me!
I burned all my porno...'cause you were PMS'n
You say it offends you...all that talking it never ends
Disconnected my X-Box and ditched all my friends
So you can go to the opera.
Dumped all my girlfriends...even the dirty ones
You think they annoy you...they wanna destroy you
I'm givin' you everything
Baby, what do you want from me!
Got you a picture you can put in a frame
Wearing a suit all check and lame
I even signed it at the bottom so you'd 'member my name
Took you to Target for your birthday meal
Got you an autographed Buns Of Steel

Cultural Prophets
Cultural prophets observing nonstop,
That which appears...
Disconnected from a thought process.
Are not too willing to converse,
With those unconscious.
Those professing to take steps to the right...
To declare those stepping to the left,
As idealists unable to conform to the norm.
Although that 'norm' has brought upon much duress.
Cultural prophets observing nonstop,
That which appears...
Disconnected from a thought process.
Are not too willing to converse,
With those unconscious.
Since the ones who are unconscious...
Can not accept the mess they've left.
To address with a correcting of it.

If Pride Was Felt Inside To Feel
If pride was felt inside to feel it...
It would be shown.
And to all would be known.
If pride was felt with intent and integrity,
Few would be envious.
And who would then express jealousy.
But pride and identity,
Is as distant as an orphan...
Seeking purpose and a home,
Alone.
To roam.
Feeling disconnected.
Leaving one who travels...
Wishing this corrected.
If pride was felt inside to feel it...
It would be shown.
And to all would be known.

What Nerve In Your Body Is Disconnected
What makes you think,
I will be discussed and talked about...
And not know it?
What nerve in your body is disconnected,
From your brain.
I happen to accept we are all part,
Of this 'Oneness' existing...
We choose to call life.
And not observers from the bleechers...
Cheering on a favorite team to win!
What makes you think,
My ears do not listen?
Or my eyes do not see?
We were all created by an 'Entity'!
And this 'spiritually' I believe!
There is no such thing,
As an inflicting of pain on someone else...

Mine When Fresh
You took it!
I don't want it any more.
You can't bring it back...
To attach as if not disconnected.
It's been infected,
By rejection and remorse allowed.
It was mine when fresh,
When selected and inspected.
I broke it in!
Remember when that happened?
Remember when it popped?
And I craved and could not stop!
You took it!
I don't want it any more.
You can't bring it back...
To attach as if not disconnected.
It's been infected,
By rejection and remorse allowed.
It was mine when fresh,
When selected and inspected.

It's Time For You To Awaken
No one is disconnected,
From the effects of having less.
Those protesting the state of the economy,
Are the ones in selfish isolation.
Regretting what the times have met.
Believing in a stubborn mindset kept protected...
Their interests are in abundance.
And there is some of that still left.
What is known is not accepted.
What is revealed many reject.
What has been exposed and has all of us affected...
Many refuse to remove delusions.
With a wish to keep reaching,
For a movement kept in backward steps.
No one is disconnected,
From the effects of having less.
Those protesting the state of the economy,
Are the ones in selfish isolation.

Keep It Real and Often Stimulated
You want to keep it real and often stimulated.
No need to keep it on the downlow and degraded.
You ought to feel within yourself you are elated.
And then don't drag around behind you your mistakes,
You've made.
You want to keep it real and often stimulated.
No need to keep it on the downlow and degraded.
You ought to feel within yourself you are elated.
And then don't drag around behind you your mistakes,
You've made.
You want to keep it real and often stimulated.
That love.
No need to keep it on the downlow and degraded.
That love.
You ought to feel within yourself you are elated.
With love.
And then don't drag around behind you your mistakes,
You've made.

interfering Entities for Joe Poewhit
I cannot explain how I feel
when disconnected from the net.
Isolation lacks appeal
I am frustrated and upset.
I try rebooting my P.C.
May be it’s just a simple glitch.
My empty screen still smirks at me
my anger grows to fever pitch.
I try again without success
The gremlins have it in for me,
delight in blocking my access.
I try and try persistently.
At last again I am in touch
with friends of mine both far and near.
I have escaped the Gremlins clutch
although I know they are still here.
