"LBaR" Or "Love Be a Rose": Tweaking Neil Young's Lyrics
Hal Womack 3-dan
Neil Young's lyrics as tweaked
By Hal Womack 3-dan
http://www.myspace.com/halwomack
...............................................
LOVE BE A ROSE
Love be a rose,
Who dies when ye pick 'er,
Grows only while she's on the vine.
Handful of thorns,
Then gone in a flicker,
Lose your love
When you say the word "mine".
I wanna see what's never been seen,
I wanna live the age-old dream.
Come on, girl, we can go together
Let's take the best right now,
Take the best right now.
I wanna go to an old hoe-down
Long ago in a western town.
Pick me up cause my feet are draggin'
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon.
This here song's gotta have a last verse,
Hizzermine, which be the worse?
Me the doc and you the nurse,
This'n bug'ee? So call a wee curse:
[All*:] HOT DAMN!
.......................................................................
* Before intro'ing this song, which might be held for the finale, the
singer tells the audience that he wants to do a "sound check" for the
house:
"You know**, our English language's only about a thousand years old.
Curiously enough, the name of the City of "London"s about another
thousand years older than our mother tongue & by now everyone has
forgot from whence that name came originally. Anyway, 'tis safe to say
that for some centuries already we've been in the habit of calling
women "the weaker" or "gentle" sex. And we know by the nature of
things that the female acts more as the receptor and the male as the
aggressor or projector, right, all clear on that before we go home
tonight?
This the long-winded way of explaining why I want to invite a woman
from the audience to come up here on stage to help run this sound
check, 'cause it's a lil' case of audience participation and she needs
to lead us for maximum response.
[A strong woman volunteers and the singer accepts her on stage.
(In the case of a female vocalist, the gender will, of course, be
reversed and the songstress can revise the patter accordingly.)]
"So, dear, thank you for coming up here so bravely. Now we want you to
get everybody here to shout "OOMPAH!" as loud as they can. Then we'll
teach'em the actual last line of our song.
[When house has uttered "OOMPAH" in unison at a satisfactory volume,
the performers repeat the training exercise with the words: "HOT
DAMN!" Then the entertainer sings LBaR.]
........................................................................................
** In the advanced version, the audience at this point yells out,
"Anchorage"!
===========================
[The original version:]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuW-MJtxpTo
(in concert in Portland, 22 October 2008).
By Neil Young
"Love Is A Rose"
Love is a rose
but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
when you say the word "mine".
I wanna see what's never been seen,
I wanna live that age old dream.
Come on, lads, we can go together
Let's take the best right now,
Take the best right now.
I wanna go to an old hoe-down
Long ago in a western town.
Pick me up cause my feet are draggin'
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon.
Love is a rose
but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine.
A handful of thorns and
you'll know you've missed it
You lose your love
when you say the word "mine".
Mine, mine.
Love is a rose, love is a rose.
Love is a rose, love is a rose.
=======================
[From WIKI:]
"Love is a Rose" is a song written by Neil Young in 1974 for the
unreleased album Homegrown. It was later released in 1977 on the
compilation Decade. It also hit #63 on the US Pop singles chart....
Linda Ronstadt recorded "Love is a Rose" in a countrified fashion on
her 1975 album Prisoner in Disguise. Her rendition peaked at #5 on the
U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.

* Thus plain speech and accurate English, in the same sense that we
have long been wont truly to say that in the 1930's
the Japanese invaded China; on 22 June 1941, the Germans
invaded Russia (then styled the USSR) and in later decades the
Americans have attacked Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, the
Dominican Republic, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Grenada,
Panama, Serbia, Iraq and and Afghanistan (partial list), murdering
more than ten million people in the last twenty years alone.
Because of the long-noted peculiar nature of the distributed
nationality of world Jewry,
the ins & outs of this most grave accusation against them bear
extended discussion so that we, the normal alias "gentile" rainbow
righteous Seven Billion of Earth, may achieve a clear understanding of
the character of the doomed tyranny --sometimes called, among other
names,
"JAT" for Jewish-American T.-- which presently oppresses us. Despite
the opprobrium of the sister term "self-righteous",
'tis of the greatest importance IMHO for those who do stand for
justice to develop a sense of self-awareness and a firm grasp of the
vital distinction between ourselves vs. the imperial criminals,
addicted as they are to waging aggressive war.
Those last two fatal words mean mass murder, torture, industrial-
strength lies aka "mainstream news media" and
robbery on a planetary scale. Each of us should meditate regularly on
individual cases of our choice --for example,
those of Iman al-Hams, Akaber Zaid, Abir Aramin and Rachel Corrie-- in
order to prepare ourselves for the intellectual exercise of
multiplying by the necessary factor of millions
the fate of any one given victim. Such preparation will provide us
with the motive for constructing the essential hierarchy
of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of Earth.
Many inspiring examples in history remind us that
yagotta have somebody to beat anybody. We Americans (here to speak of
my own nation) have the duty and the opportunity to learn from the
successes of Presidents Hugo Chavez, Nelson Mandela, Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad, Evo Morales, Rafael Correa, Fernando Lugo and Hizbullah
Secretary-General
Hassan Nasrallah, among others.
Will we learn to save time by using positive grammar to the max? Thus
to transform a Jewish proverb, she who can endure the evil will live
to see glory. Let our watchwords be: Save life! Live and let live.
Friendly competition. Mercy* to all criminals, even the Bushes,
Clintons and Obama meaning, of course, that first we put them at our
mercy.
From dissent and protest to popular accord, from tail-chasing
"activism" to vast vision to sound strategy to bold action to
victory!

I thought love in a rose..............
ioqwej;ijweijewewwe
Hal Womack 3-dan
offer yet another variation to Neil Young's famous first stanza:
Love be a rose,
Who dies when ye pluck'er,
Grows only while she's on the vine.
Handful of thorns,
You're a dead motherfucker,
Lose your love
When you say the word "mine".
====================================
