  1. Calling this guy a scumbag is an insult to scumbags.

    How has NO ONE insulted NO ONE ELSE using this line?!

    And I'm off to listen to some Emo Philips! All I needed was one line for inspiration.

    I'm not boosting Mr. Francis, but if you know anything about spring break, these girls were taking their tops off anyway. He just introduced the video camera and release form to the equation.

    She's a prostitute. Does being involved in "Girls Gone Wild" make it worse?

    Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
    I've got some real estate here in my bag
    So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
    And walked off to look for America

    "Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
    "Michigan seems like a dream to me now"
    It took me four days to hitch-hike from Saginaw
    I've come to look for America

    Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
    She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
    I said, "Be careful, his bow tie is really a camera"

    "Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat"
    "We smoked the last one an hour ago"
    So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
    And the moon rose over an open field

    "Kathy, I'm lost," I said, though I knew she was sleeping,
    "I'm empty and aching and I don't know why"
    Counting the cars on the New Jersey turnpike
    They've all come to look for America
    AII come to look for America
    AII come to look for America

    I was on my way to somewhere to the Mexicali sand
    A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands
    He told me some stories - I told him some lies
    Light shone through my darkness, cast shadows from my mind
    His eyes they looked right through me
    Oh I knew he carried weight
    Something real was going down that day
    Oh I told him I'm a sinner
    He said that's o.k.
    I'm not here to change you anyway
    He was gone when I turned around
    Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound
    Oh we talked about the world gone bad
    The troubles we had seen
    We talked about the dirt
    Brown shoes he wore on his feet
    He said I'm tired and weary
    I've been riding a long way
    Let me rest my eyes now
    Let me drift away
    He acted Like he knew me
    Then he fell asleep
    I had no More secrets
    I could keep
    Oh I told him I'm a sinner
    He said that's o.k.
    I'm not here to change you anyway
    He was gone when I turned around
    Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound
    Somewhere in the sunlit mornin'
    I stepped off the bus in the
    Middle of the city of angels
    And that long haired hippie was up
    And gone where devils run and play and lust
    Lookin for the danger
    Oh and I looked at my feet and
    Saw the shoes that he had worn and
    Thank God for that beautiful stranger
    Was that Jesus
    Was that Jesus
    Was that Jesus
    Oh I told him I'm a sinner
    He said that's o.k.
    I'm not here to change you anyway
    He was gone when I turned around
    Was it Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound
    And I'll rise again
    Ain't no power on earth can keep me down
    And I'll rise, I'll rise again
    Oh ain't no death can keep me in the ground
    Was that Jesus
