Curtin & Allen

The rain beats down
At the intersection of Curtin & Allen
The cars stop & go
Driving to...I don't know
Got another date with Miss So and So
Tell me something I don't know

A petrified mumble burning behind my teeth
I'm losing control on my own retreat
I can't walk another street
Isn't this where we were suppose to meet?

Oh, pretty sunshine, everyone here is looking at me so mean
I can't wipe myself clean
Oh, pretty sunshine, can't you bother to follow me?

The darkness is getting darker
So, I guess, Sunshine isn't coming home
Oh, pretty sunshine, won't you come home?

I'm just a slow-moving man
With my head stuck upside down
And there's people all over the street
I just want to sleep

Oh, pretty sunshine, I can't keep my eyes off my feet
Oh, pretty sunshine, when can we meet?

Hi PS

You have lost me as far as this fitting this weeks assignment ...

I like it and I can only find one little gripe with it and I do think it is a typo ..

Oh, pretty sunshine, I can't keep my eyes of my feet
surely you mean off not of

Now I am sounding like a grammar nazi sorry ...

Apart from that I have nothing else to say , well done

Hilch :?:

Here is to you as good as you are
And here is to me as bad as I am
As good as you are and as bad as I am
I'm as good as you are as bad as I am

Yeah, it was typo. I fixed it. Thanks.

I think it fits this weeks assignment, or at least to me. This weeks assignment is about one-to-one relationship assignment, right? Well, now that I think about it, it doesn't really fit the whole one-to-one relationship assignment. It's more about a couple different relationships. Sorry.

No need to say sorry it's just my opinion ...

I write something that I think is fantastic and someone says I don't think it fits or something along those lines , I just go back and revisit it , if I feel I am still right then I don't change it .

OK ok I have read this over and over

There is a relationship between Curtin and Allen streets

The narrator and the streets ..

I am so blonde at times ( actually bald but blonde sounds better )

No I am sorry for not reading it and understanding it before posting ...

And here is to me as bad as I am
As good as you are and as bad as I am
I'm as good as you are as bad as I am

Whilst I can't claim to fully understand the song, I can definitely see the references to relationships in the song. Even the title, which as we discover, relates to street names is a relationship of sorts ... particularly an intersection of two entities. This in itself can be, and may be intended as such, a metaphor. :)

Hi PoeticSmile

Certainly a different relationship to explore than the way most people have gone - but there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
