One, two boys by the river
Down by the water tellin' riddles in the dark
With fireflies under the moonlight
Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife
You ever hear the one about the boy's big sister
His best friend come along
He tried to kiss her

The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be

One boy lives in a tower
With bow and arrow and the artificial heart
With his girl, maid of dishonor
He loaded the cannon with a jealous appetite
They say that children now they come in all ages
And maybe sometimes old men die with little boy faces

The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be

The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be

You always said that you needed some
But you always had more
More than anyone

The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be

The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be

You know what really is repetitive and boring? I'll leave you to ponder it...{#Nyah}

It's gotta be a tough gig, being the son of Dylan and being a musician. I give him credit for even trying!
This song and a few others aren't bad. At least he's better looking than Bob (not that that's saying much). ; )
 

Maybe it would be hard to be Dylan's son...  but I'd be willing to take that risk, I mean if I had a choice and all.

This CD should be re-named The Wallflowers Greatest Hits!

I love this song so much, such great high school memories go along with it too...

at least he has a better voice than his Dad. Yet Bob uses his better much of the time.

Also:
I've only seen one Celebrity Death Match in my life, and it the the Dillons vs. The Stillers.

Man this is awful. That part really grates that goes "the only difference, that I SEEEEE-a-EEEEEE."... Ugh.

The bass part of that song makes it - pretty good stuff.

Eddy Merck is the greatest professional cyclist ever (no, Lance can't even hold a candle to the guy). His son is also a professional cyclist who is in the tour. He is nowhere near his father in terms of wins. I think I see a pattern here.
I would say Graeme Obree is the best cyclist ever.He was certainly the fastest but his time wasn't allowed to stand because of his 'style' check him out if you have not heard of him

Song rocks, I think. Must have been cool to grow up with BD as your dad and then go into the music business (as if you could do anything else). High expectations though......

OK, this is driving me nuts. Who originaly wrote this? or, if the Wallflowers are the original, then who covered this in the early 90's. I swear I have heard it slightly faster and more forcefull. I want to say Cracker covered it, but I can't seem to verify it. I am pretty sure I own the version I am thinking about, but looking for it is going to be a chore. -dave

I like this song and am glad it made rotation today. Not my favorite song but a good one to hear after Taqueria lunch.

Cute pun in the album name. Rock, rock, rock, rock the horse! Hey, how about some Moby?

Reminds me of 'Counting Crows' but not quite as polished. Still, a nice bit of energy here..
