Waiting for a dance

"I should like to dance,
To shout, to sing,
To fasten a crimson blossom in my hair
And sport the gay frivolity of my gown
To make your hard Puritan conscience
Wonder about my Soul."

(M.C. Becker in I should like to dance)

Movements in white

"That ye dance not here,
White-robed spirits of sleep,
All the summer night
Threading dances light?"

(R.S. Bridges in Angel spirits of sleep)

3 closed doors

"At the last, tenderly,
From the walls of the powerful, fortress'd house,
From the clasp of the knitted locks --
 from the keep of the well-closed doors,
Let me be wafted."

(Walt Whitman in The last invocation)

Changes in a town

"Sometimes I’m in the mood, I wanna change my house around
Sometimes I’m in the mood, I’m gonna make a change in this here town
Sometimes I’m in the mood, I’m gonna change the world around
But then again, but then again, I said oh, I said oh, I said
Oh babe, I’m in the mood for you."

(Bob Dylan in Baby, I'm In The Mood For You)

Kein Wasser … Nicht Rauchen …

"Kein Alkohol ist auch keine Lösung --
Ich hab es immer wieder versucht.
Kein Alkohol ist auch keine Lösung --
Es würde gehen, doch es geht nicht gut."

(Die Toten Hosen in Kein Alkohol (Ist auch Keine Lösung))
