Impulsively swallowed some meat

who'd get wild when bands squared to battle.
Absorbed like a sponge,
she redefined grunge
with each rocker she chose to straddle....

Settle in Seattle After You Pedal


What you should do is to settle,
Down home in beautiful Seattle,
Get a grip;
Great trip;
After we did pedal on the metal.

Seattle
There once was an old man from Seattle
Who had it in his thoughts to skedaddle
But booking trips his mind they would rattle
He took plane
Landed in Spain
When he wanted to go to Newcastle....

He became experienced through his guitar amp feed

He lived his life like a machine gun

Hey Joe plays little wing, on the third stone from the sun...

Something For Jimi
Tonight,
I had a date with the mountain

Tonight,
I made those promises impend

Tonight,
behind the shadow of my fear

Tonight

Cautious About Crane In Seattle
Cautious About Crane in Seattle

In Seattle, fallen over had a tall crane;
Down below in the street does remain;
Sound air filled;
Several killed,
And luckily it never landed in fast lane.

Between them both, better bet there is broadcast battle

Going by name of Seattle Seahawks
Of not only of the whole North West
But also rest of country is the best.

Not the protein, dear Rico, the fat!
There’ll be no more wheat grass for Jack Sprat.
That unhappy vegan
Has gone Chrissy Teigen,
Is now off clubbing seals with a bat.
