"The One"
So I find a reason to shave my legs
Each single morning
So I count on someone on Friday nights
To take me dancing again
To church on Sundays
To plant more trees
And someday think of kids
Or maybe just save a little money
You're the one I need
The way back home is always long
But if you're close to me I'm holding on
You're the one I need
My real life has just begun
Cause there's nothing like your smile made of sun

In the world full of strangers
You're the one I know

So I learned to cook and finally lose
My kitchen phobia
And so I got the arms to cuddle in
When there's a ghost or a news
That brings insomnia
To buy more thongs
To write more happy songs
It always takes a little help from someone
You're the one I need
The way back home is always long
But if you're close to me I'm holding on
You're the one I need
My real life has just begun
Cause there's nothing like your smile made of sun
You're the one I need
Nothing like your smile made of sun
Nothing like your love

"Take My Hand"
Touch my skin,and tell me what you're thinking
Take my hand and show me where we're going
Lie down next to me, look into my eyes and tell me, oh tell me what you're seeing
So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling
what you feel now is what I feel for you

Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
See my eyes, they carry your reflection
Watch my lips and hear the words I'm telling you
Give your trust to me and look into my heart and show me, show me what you're doing
So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling
what you feel now is what I feel for you
Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
Take your time, if I'm lying to you
I know you'll find that you believe me
you believe me
Feel the sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking
Catch the snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes
Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
Take your time, if I'm lying to you
I know you'll find that you believe me
you believe me

"Everything I Want To Be"
I find myself
I'm just awastin' my time away
No matter what I do
It always ends up the same
One minute moves
Into the next
My life was simple
But now it's complex
And it doesn't seem to mean anything at all
And everything I want to be
Is just another silly dream, you see
But I'll keep dreaming just the same
Sometimes it's hard to be me
When people stand in my way
I get so easily discouraged
Well, what can I say
They try to mess you up
They try to push you around
They'll do anything
To bring you down
I'm not gonna be
Stuck in mediocrity
When everybody's trying to bring me
Back down to reality
Oh, why can't they see
Just how much this means to me
Maybe one day I'll be special

Your dreams are special to you
But maybe others don't care
It brings you down
When you find them disregarded
And when you're out on your own
It's hard to make yourself stay
And finish up what it was
That you once started
I'm not gonna be
Taken down that easily
When everybody's trying to tell me
What I'm gonna have to be
Oh, why can't they see
Just how much this means to me
Maybe one day I'll be special
I'll be special
It means nothing
It means everything
It means something to me
What you tryin' to say
I'm not gonna play
In this little game
That you have created for me
You had your chance to do
What you needed to
And now it's time for me
To step right up and
Spin that wheel
This time's for real
It's not gonna work this time
Cuz in the end it's going to be mine
There's no need for me to stay
Cuz everything is gonna go
My way
My way, my way
My way
My way, my way, my way
 
"I saw the little birdy sing
He sang with glee and everything
He sang for Spring and he sang for me
and everything was so happy."
Little Birdy by Ween
"I am the one holding the time back form the Sun as I scope the lobe.
I am the one who controls the Sun,
and I know that things will pass as time elapse, elapses
time elapses to the sound of you
and the things we could do..."

In memory of Willie
Song: I'll Be Missing You
Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hangin' on the block for dough
Notorious they got to know that
Life ain't always what it seem to be
Words can't express what you mean to me
Even though you're gone we still a team
Thru your family I'll fulfill your dreams
In the future can't wait to see if you'll
Open up the gates for me
Reminisce sometime the night they took my friend
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it's real feelings hard to conceal
Can't imagine all the pain I feel
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know you still livin' your life after death
Chorus:
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Everytime I pray
I'll be missing you
Thinking of the day
When you went away
What a life to take
What a bond to break
I'll be missing you
(We miss you, Big....)
It's kinda hard wit you not around
Know you in Heaven smilin' down
Watching us while we pray for you
Everyday we pray for you
Till the day we meet again
In my heart is where I keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts, Big, I just can't define
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us and the six shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me takin' flics
Makin' hits, stages they receive you on
Still can't believe you're gone
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know you still livin' your life after death
Chorus
Somebody tell me why...
On that morning
When this life is over
I know, I'll see your face
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Chorus
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Chorus
Every night I pray
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
love, rest in peace
Love, rest in peace
 
I hope my mom is okay.
Radio Cure by Wilco
cheer up
honey I hope you can
there is something wrong with me
my mind is filled with silvery stars
honey kisses about to fly
shoulders shrugging off
cheer up
honey I hope you can
there is something wrong with me
my mind is filled with radio cures
electronic sergical words
picking apples
for the kings and queens of things I've never seen
all distance has no way
of making love understandable
cheer up
honey I hope you can
there is something wrong with me
my mind is filled with silvery stars
honey kisses clouds of love
picking apples
for the kings and queens of things I've never seen
all distance has no way
of making love understandable
cheer up
honey I hope you can
 
For ALL YA California- here I come Hippies!!!!
Of course it's Joni Mitchell, I think her and Rodger Waters would of been a match made in Heaven, oh I don't know they may have killed each other with their LYRICS, so for all ya hippies that love LYRICS, enjoy:
Sitting in a park in Paris,France
Reading the news and it sure looks bad
They won't give PEACE A CHANCE
That was just a dream some of us had
Still a lot of lands to see
But I wouldn't want to stay here
It's too old and cold and settled in it's ways
here
Oh but California
California I'm coming home
I'm going to see the folks I dig
I'll even kiss a Sunset pig
California I'm coming home.
I met a redneck on a Crecian isle
Who did the goat dance very well
He gave me back my smile
But he kept my camera to sell
Oh the rogue, the red red rouge
He cooked good omelettes & stews
And I might have stayed on with him there
But my heart cried out to you, Califoorniaaa
California I'm coming home
Oh make me feel good rock-n role band
I'm your biggest fan
California, I'm coming home
CHORUS:
Oh it get's so lonnnnnley
When your walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
Just gives you the bluuuess
Just gives you the blueeeeesss
So I bought me a ticket
I caught a plane to Spain
Went to a party down a red dirt road
There we lots of pretty people there
Reading Rolling Stone, reading Vogue
They said, "How long can you hang around?"
I said "a week,maybe two,
Just until my skin turns brown
Then I'm going hooommmmme to California
California I'm comin home
Oh will you take me as i am
Strung out on another man
California I'm coming home.
CHORUS:
Oh it gets so lonely
When your're walking
And the strests are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
More about the war
And the bloody changes
Oh will you take me as I am?
Will you take me as I am?
Will you?
Will you take me as I Ammmmmmmm?
God Bless all our men and women who fight for our civil liberties. God Bless them soooo much.
Peace
 
There is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths
(Just a piece...)
And if a double decker bus
Smashes into us
To die by your side
Such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Oh the pleasure, the priveledge is mine....
Dedicated to my lover Amy
 
In a way, it's all a matter of time
I will not worry for you, You'll be just fine
Take my thoughts with you, and when you look behind
You will surely see a face that you recognize
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind, Surely there's time to be with me
It is the distance, that makes life a little hard
Two minds that once were close, Now so many miles apart
I will not falter though, I'll hold on till you're home
Safely back where you belong, And see how our love has grown
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind, Surely there's time to be with me
:)
 
Lou Reed - Perfect Day
Just a perfect day,
Drink Sangria in the park,
And then later, when it gets dark,
We go home.
Just a perfect day,
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later, a movie, too,
And then home.
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
Just a perfect day,
Problems all left alone,
Weekenders on our own.
It's such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow...

I got my head but my head's only half of me
Can't get control can't keep track of where it's travelling
I got my heart but my heart's no good
And your the only one thats understood
I come along but i don't know where your taking me
I shouldn't go but your itching, dragging, shaking me
Turn off the sun pull the star's from the sky
the more I give to you the more I die
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You make me hard when I'm all soft inside
I see the truth when I'm all stupid I
You'll go straight to my heart
Without you everything just falls apart
My thoughts want to say hello to you
My fear's want to get inside of you
My soul is so afraid to realize (how very little bit is left of me)
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug the perfect drug the perfect perfect drug
Take me if you want
Take me if you want
Take me if you want Without you without you everything falls apart
Take me if you want Without you...it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Take me if you want Without you without you everything falls apart
Take me if you want Without you...it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Take me if you want It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Take me if you want It's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you without you everything falls apart
Without you.... it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

I opened the fire door
to four lips
none of which were mine
kissing
tightened my belt around my hips
where your hands were missing
and stepped out into the cold
collar high
under the slate grey sky
the air was smoking and the streets were dry
and I wasn't joking when I said
Good Bye
magazine quality men talking on the corner
French, no less much less of them then us
so why do I feel like something's been rearranged?
you know, taken out of context I must seem so strange
killed a cockroach so big
it left a puddle of pus on the wall
when you and I are lying in bed
you don't seem so tall
I'm singing now because my tear ducts are too tired
and my brain is disconnected but my heart is wired
I make such a good statistic
someone should study me now
somebody's got to be interested in how I feel
just 'cause I'm here
and I'm real
oh, how I miss
substituting the conclusion to confrontation with a kiss
and oh, how I miss
walking up to the edge and jumping in
like I could feel the future on your skin
I opened the fire door
to four lips
none of which were mine
kissing
I opened the fire door x 9

Lyrics from linkin park "in the end" that apply to me
" Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
the clock ticks life away "
" Watch time go right out the window
Trying to hold on but didnt even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go"
" I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart "
" I had to fall to loose it all "
" Things arnt the way they were before
You wouldnt even recognise me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me ( in the end ) "

She was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy
And tears boy
And all in your innerspace boy

Hands girl boy
And steel boy
You had chemicals boy
I've grown so close to you
Boy and you just groan boy

She said comeover comeover
She smiled at you boy

Dirty numb angel boy
In the doorway boy
She was a lipstick boy

And tears boy
And all in your innerspace boy

You're so succulent and beautiful
Shimmering and dirty
Wonderful and hot times
On your telephone line
And god and everything
On your telephone
And in walk an angel
And look at me your mom
Squatting pissed in a tube-

Hi mom are you having fun
And now are you on your way
To a new tension
Headache

brother brown feat. frankee-under the water
I can't breathe here anymore,
It's been like that for a while,
Everything seems strange to me,
I feel like a new born child...
And I don't belong down here..
I guess it will always be the same..
I wish I wouldn't have to fear..

Under the water, Under the water
Oooh you left me drowning..
Under the water, Under the water,
OOoh you left me drowning..
I tried to grow a mermaid's tail..
Cuz' here's a lot of danger..
The great big sharks with long shark teeth..
Would love to catch a stranger...
And I don't belong down here..
I guess it will always be the same..
I wish I wouldn't have to fear..
Under the water, Under the water
Oooh you left me drowning..
Under the water, Under the water,
OOoh you left me drowning..
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
That I was left to drown..
That I was left to drown..
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
That I was deep down under..
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
That I am deep deep deep deep down under..
That I was left to drown.. left to drown..
OoOh, can't you see?
Can't you see?
That I am deep down under..
I am deep deep deep down under..
Can't you see?

and lastly, part of a song that has been in my head all day.
cleveland lounge-drowing
What can I say, what can I do
Is there any way to get close to you
I'll put myself into your shoes and
I'll walk around these streets of yours
It's cold outside where you stay but my
Heart is not far away
So take a breath and close your eyes
I want to hold you
I feel that your eyes won't open
And these dreams, my heart,
I can't deceive them
Maybe the moon will come down and save me
Maybe your eyes will stop me from falling
 
I got to see these guys last night. Great show, naturally.
Cursive - The Martyr
And so it's begun
And this is year one
The birth of a child in the form of a man
Wrapped in a towel
Passed out on the floor
These drunken hours - graces deflowered
Cast down by an angel
She used to kiss his weeping eyes
Depressed in her bosom
Tears roll off her nipple
Sweet baby, don't cry
Your tears are only alibis
To prove you still feel
You only feel sorry for yourself
Well, get on that cross,
That's all your good for
And thustly it ends
Depression seeps on on a lonely messiah
Now he drinks with the lepers
Losing a limb
His better half
A glass once half full
A head hung half-mast
He claims he's the victim
Strangled by the 9-to-5
A pattern of stillness
That haunted this still ife
Your tears are only alibis
To prove you still feel -
You only feel sorry for yourself
And that's how you thrive,
Your sorrow is your goldmine
So write some sad song about me
Screaming your agonies, playing the saint
The Martyr
 
Get up and dance :)
"We used to be number 10
Now we're permanent one,
In the battle lost my finger, Mic became my arm
Pistol nozzle hits your nasal, blood becomes lukewarm
Tell the woman be easy Naah squeeze the Charmin
Test Wyclef, see death flesh get scorned.
Beat you so bad make you feel like you ain't wanna be born
And tell your friends stay the hell out of my lawn.
Chicken George became Dead George stealin' chickens from my farm.
Damn, Another dead pigeon
If your mafiosos then I'm bringin' on Haitian Sicilians
Nobody's shootin', my body's made of hand grenade
Girl bled to death while she was tongue-kissing a razor blade.
That sounds sick maybe one eday I'll write a horror
Blackula comes to the ghetto, jacks an ACURA
Stevie Wonder sees Crack Babies Be-Coming Enemies of their own families.
What's going on?
Armageddon come you know we soon done
Gun by my side just in case I gotta rump
A boy on the side of Babylon, trying to front like he's down with Mount Zion.
Oooh La La La, It's the way that we rock when we're doing our thang
Oooh La La La, It's the natural LA that the Refugees Bring
Oooh La La La La La La Lalala La Laaah, Sweeeeet Thing
Yeah in saloons we drink Boone's and battle goons till high noon,
Bust rap toons on flat spoons, take no shorts like poon poon's.
See hoochies pop coochies, for Gucci's and Lucci
Find me in my Mitsubishi, eatin' sushi, bumpin' Fugees.
Hey Hey Hey
Try to take the crew and we don't play play
Say say say
Like Paul McCartney, not hardly,
ODD-ly enough
I can see right through your bluff
Niggas huff and they puff but they can't handle us, WE BUST
Cause we fortified, I could never hide, seen "Cooley High", Cried when Cochise died.
I'm twisted, black-listed by some other negroes,
Don't remove my Polos on the first episode.
Ha Ha Ha Ha, You shouldn't diss refugees, and
Ha Ha Ha Ha, You whole sound set's bootie , and
Ha Ha Ha Ha, You have to respect JERSEY, cause I'm superfly when I'm super-high on
the Fu-Gee-La.
Oooh La La La, It's the way that we rock when we're doing our thang
Oooh La La La, It's the natural LA that the Refugees Bring
Oooh La La La La La La Lalala La Laaah, Sweeeeet Thing
I sit 90 degrees underneath palm trees,
Smokin' beadies as I burn my calories,
Brooklyn roof tops become Brooklyn tee-pees,
Who that be, enemies, wanna see the death of me.
From Hawaii to Hawthorne, I run marathons, like
Buju Banton, I'm a true champion, like,
Farakkhan reads his Daily Qu'ran it's a phenomenon, lyrics fast like Ramadan.
What's goin' on
Armageddon come you know we soon done
Gun by my side just in case I gotta rump
A boy on the side of Babylon, trying to front like he's down with Mount Zion.
Oooh La La La, It's the way that we rock when we're doing our thang
Oooh La La La, It's the natural LA that the Refugees Bring
Oooh La La La La La La Lalala La Laaah, Sweeeeet Thing"

I could pick almost any Elliott Smith song, but...
"Say Yes"
I'm in love with the world, through the eyes of a girl..."
"Happiness"
activity's killing the actor
and a cop's standing out in the road turning traffic away
there was nothing she could do until after
when his body'd been buried below
way back in the day
oh my, nothing else could've been done
he made his life a lie
so he might never have to know anyone
made his life the lie you know
i told him he shouldn't upset her
and that he'd only be making it worse
involving somebody else
but I knew that he'd never forget her
while her memory worked in reverse
to keep her safe from herself
and oh my, nothing else could've been done
she made her life a lie
so she might never have to know anyone
made her life the lie you know
what I used to be will pass away and then you'll see
that all I want now is happiness for you and me
what I used to be will pass away and then you'll see
that all I want now is happiness for you and me
what I used to be will pass away and then you'll see
that all I want now is happiness for you and me
 
Beulah "What Will You Do When Your Suntan Fades?"
(this song is hilarious in that it sounds like a really bad lounge act. but i still like the band, and especially this song and it's title)
This is gonna hurt, kid
You better hold on tight, you know
All those drugs you take
Cannot help to save your soul
Smile someday, smile, kid
You're fragile as a scene, ya know
All those things you have
Will not make you come undone
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you're in the shade
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you start to fade
Who's your only friend, kid?
There's no one else, you know
All those girls you love,
Doesn't mean you feel a thing
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you're in the shade
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you start to fade
Softly sway, or have you lost your way?
Well I could give you a map
But you know you'd have to stay
You could quit the fight or you can say goodnight
Well if you think it's a joke
Then why do you always cry?
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you're in the shade
Tell me tell me you'll be alright
When you start to fade
Have you heard?
The days are getting shorter
And what will you do when your suntan is fading and the summer's gone?
Do you feel the fade? (x4)
Will you fade away? (x5)
 
When I first heard this song, I thought it was about a girl. I used to listen to it, and think about a girl. Recently, I found out it was to Pharrell Williams' grandmother who was dying of leukemia. Now, when I hear this track, I think about my grampa
N.E.R.D. - Run to the sun
Before you go
I wanna talk to you
Thinking about the time we share
And how I wasn’t there
It hurt me
These people overwork me
Then I heard maybe soon you’ll leave
Excuse me lord if you have tricks up your sleeve
I’m not ready to be bereaved
I know I’m always asking for something
Or another
But this time, it’s just time
‘Cause I love her
But baby if he don’t change his mind
Or fate or time
Yo I want to leave you with this line
It goes while you’re here
I wanna tell you something
It’s that I love you girl
Yeah, and I wish we could run to the sun
And never come back
Yeah
Yesterday I tied two rocks together
That symbolize our lives
And threw them in the ocean
Now they’re on the ocean floor coastin’
‘Til they stop rollin’ so far
That no sonar would list them
To the point that no one would even believe that we existed
I know that may sound twisted
But my neglect is killin’ me
I feel so guilty
Please have faith in if you feel me
It goes while you’re here
I wanna tell you something
It’s that I love you girl
Yeah, and I wish we could run to the sun
And never come back
Yeah
It goes while you’re here
I wanna tell you something
It’s that I love you girl
Yeah, and I wish we could run to the sun
And never come back
Yeah
Though you’re probably feelin’ blue
And you’ll do what you must do
I hope you know
I’d hand the skies to you
I’m so embarrassed for mankind
They have the nerve to let their weapon shine
They’re so stupid
Do they not know you’re about to fly high
Away
With the wings that God will give you someday
I’m not jealous
I just can’t take it
S.O.S. to your ears, the only thing I ever feared was this day
And having to say
It goes while you’re here
I wanna tell you something
It’s that I love you girl
Yeah, and I wish we could run to the sun
And never come back
Yeah.

Overplayed? Yep. But these lyrics sum up everything that's happened to me this weekend. I love love :)
Friday night I'm going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red
Turning over TV stations
Situations running through my head
Well looking back through time
You know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool
To ever open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule
Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
Only wish that you were here
You know I'm seeing it so clear
I've been afraid
To tell you how I really feel

Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Babylon, Babylon
Sunday all the lights of London shining
Sky is fading red to blue
I'm kicking through the autumn leaves
And wondering where it is you might be going to
Turning back for home
You know I'm feeling so alone
I can't believe
Climbing on the stair
I turn around to see you smiling there in front of me
 
Excerpts from various notes strewn around the bedroom of April Connolly, Feb. 24, 1997.
'Why I should leave... no-
Why I'm leaving you for him.
Well, let's see here, well,
Let's see; Where should I begin?
Every night you get annihilated with all your friends, and every night I drink alone until you stumble home wanting some - like osme fuck and run. I know you sleep around, I see it in the eyes of those girls. Those fucking girls... they smile and nod, but never offer a single word - I'm just in the way - I'm the ball and chain, you're the jailbird chirping, "How hard is life in the cage!" How hard it is waking up next to me.
Well, you've dug this hole, come on and
Fill me up.
When you said you loved me I knew
I was getting fucked.
You siad you'd never let go - all that stopped...
You used to turn me on, now we're just getting off.
That's why I'm leaving you.'
((And the drunken, erratic response from April's ex-boyfriend Trevor Post, Upon finding said various notes)))
'You really, really think this guy is gonna mke it alright? You told me you could never fall in love with another man,
"Oh, but this one is it!"

But I remember when we met we knew that this was the end.
Yeah I remember -
I remember everything, yeah everything -
the haircuts, the dollar movies.
We used to sneak a six pack in your bag,
and wait for a girl to scream or a car to crash
so we could crack open our cans.
Or the time you shaved my head in the front yard;
a passerby stopped to take a picture -
we ended up in the paper.
And now you want to leave?
Well maybe I forgot a couple things, it doesn't mean I don't remember how it feels when you're lying naked next to me.
Valentine,
I want to fell your hips pressed up against mine.
We'll push into each other - love's alive.
It might be fleeting, but it's ours and it's tonight...
so won't you reconsider love-lost lives?
You might be lonely but I'm still by your side.
You might have to leave, but not tonight.

-Cursive.
This song is nothing without the music, though. Go download it _now_.
