Array ( [sid] => 16750 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => My Favourite Substitue [time] => 2003-04-30 04:35:00 [hometext] => This is a song which I've also done the vocals for. It's about all the choices to make in life, but if you really want to make things easier, just dwell in music. [bodytext] => There is a man down the alley
Playing his guitar
Making these days easier
To go through
I'm standing there, waiting
For him to start again
And telling him: dear please
Get off these island roads

But he said: No
Baby, you can choose your love
Baby, you can choose your addiction
Baby, you can choose your religion
But music is my favourite substitute
For everything
A sedative
In this life of sin

And I got to fly on his favourite tunes
And I got high on it way too soon
Tripping, drifting away
Waiting every day, after I'd heard him play
It never got out of my head again
He'd said: Simply sing your song
Whenever things go wrong
And all will be allright so every night is here to take you among the starry lights
For a moonlight drive

Oh, Baby, if you choose for love
And baby, if you choose addiction
Baby, if you choose religion
Know that music is the best substitute
For everything
A sedative
In this life of sin... [comments] => 2 [counter] => 289 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Chenobi [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
My Favourite Substitue

Baby, you can choose your addiction
Baby, you can choose your religion

Oh, Baby, if you choose for love

I've had so much joy out of music but I've never really thought much about it till I read this poem
