Stay up all night and party go to bed with the sun
Always on the dance floor till the end of the night
And if I go home alone everything is alright
Love and romance just ain't the same anymore
What can you do, accept or ignore
I thought I was wise about te ways of the world
But you gotta be crazy to have
Sex in the 90's

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

I got a squad with a list of complainers
I should have started RAPE:
Rappers Against Phony Entertainers
So we can make it known that we won't get swayed
It's ninety-one son, so somethin's gotta change

Customer Review:
---------------------------------
Best spokesman of his generation
Not only does 92 in the Shade sum up an entire generation, but it gives serious fiction readers the opportunity to read the language of a genius. Tom McGuane once told me in an interview that he made more money investing in real estate than in his career as a novelist. That sad statement amplified itself several years later when I was seeking a literary agent for my own pursuits. The first one I approached told me she had never heard of Tom McGuane after I explained that he was one of the few American novelists I really admired.(I didnt hire her.) 92 does an excellent job of illustrating the troubled fishing guides state of mind, the lifestyle of the denizens of Key West, and the pathetic state of the country at the time. His brilliant prose provided me with an engrossingly twisted story. The style is distinctively McGuane who is a master of language and tough guy dialogue. He lives in a world all of his own. Many people dont understand his cynicism and negative take on every day happenings. All of which makes his work better that most others. I reread at least part of 92 each time I go to Key West, still, despite its commercialization, one of the greatest zany hang-outs in the history of the world.

WHEN I'M NINETY-FOUR
When I get senile losing my mind
Many years from now
Will you still be feeding me with Ovaltine
Ground up veggies bottle of brine
If I take off my diapers to pee
Would you hit the floor
When I'm ninety-four
You'll be senile too
And if you say the word
Hey, what were we doing again?
Get me my dinner so I can pee
Again on the floor
When I'm ninety-four
Every morning you can hose me down or
In the tub at night if it's not too dear
We shall scrub and clean
Hand lotion on your knee
Quick, I have to pee
Send me a postcard drop me a line
Stating point of view
Scream and shout precisely what you mean to say
I'm as deaf as a pile of clay
Give me your answer, do you agree
Quick, I have to pee
When I'm ninety-four

Wreck Of The Old Ninety -Seven
Well, they gave him his orders in Monroe, Virginia
Saying Steve you are way behind time
This is not thirty eight, but it's old ninety seven
You must put her into Spencer on time
He turned and said to his tired greasy fireman
Shovel on a little more coal
And when we cross the White Oak Mountain
You can watch old Ninety-Seven roll
It's a mighty rough road from Lynchburg to Danville
On a line on a three mile grade
It was on this grade that he lost his leverage
You can see what a jump he made
He was going down the grade making ninety miles an hour
When his whistle broke into a scream
They found him in the wreck with his hand on the throttle
He was scalded to death by the steam
Now all you ladies you must take warning
From this time now on learn
Never speak harsh words to your true loving husband
He may leave you and never return
