“Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain't got sober yet
As long as a bottle was passed around, every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride!
They said it was a sin and shame, and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
As Mrs. Murphy sat in the corner pouring out her grief
Kelly and his gang came tearing down the street
They went into an empty room and a bottle of whiskey stole
Then put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whiskey cold
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame, and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
About two o'clock in the morning after emptying the jug
Doyle rolls up the ice box lid to see poor Paddy's mug
We stopped the clock so Mrs. Murphy couldn't tell the time
And at a quarter after two we argued it was nine
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame, and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
They stopped the hearse on George Street outside Sundance Saloon
They all went in at half past eight and staggered out at noon
They went up to the graveyard, so holy and sublime
Found out, when they got there, they'd left the corpse behind!
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame, and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't been sober yet
As long as a bottle was passed around, every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame, and they winked at one another
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died!”

Battle of the Fear Bands B2R2: The Corruption
The Chemical Worker's Song:
“Half Corruption Half Buried. A song about doing a job that makes you sicker and sicker as you work. And yet… you need the cash, right?”
Stalker's Tango:
"toxic love is very corruptiony"
Lyrics below the line!
The Chemical Worker's Song:
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
But you go
Well, a Process Man am I and I'm tellin' you no lie
I work and breathe among the fumes that trail across the sky
There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air
There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
But you go
Well, I've worked among the spinners, and I breathe the oily smoke
I've shovelled up the gypsum and it nigh on makes you choke
I've stood knee deep in cyanide, got sick with a caustic burn
Been workin' rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach turn
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
But you go
There's overtime and bonus opportunities galore
The young men like their money and they all come back for more
But soon you're knockin' on and you look older than you should
For every bob made on the job, you pay with flesh and blood
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
But you go
Well, a Process Man am I and I'm tellin' you no lie
I work and breathe among the fumes that trail across the sky
There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air
There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
And it's go boys, go
They'll time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death
But you go
The Stalker's Tango:
I know, I know, I know this situation's strange
It takes a little getting, a little getting used to
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me more
Than you possibly can
It's not that complicated, no matter what they say
You'll never meet another me
It's not that difficult to get your head around
You'll never meet another me
You'll never-never-ever-never ever meet another me
I know, I know, I know I'm always in your place
But don't you see, my dear?
I am your Doppelgänger
Have your faith so
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me more
Than you possibly can
It's not that complicated, no matter what they say
You'll never meet another me
It's not that difficult to get your head around
You'll never meet another me
You'll never-never-never-ever-ever meet another me
Ey-ey-ah
Bada-bam-bam-bam-bam
Bada-bam-bam-bam-bam
Bada-ba-ah
Bam-bam-bam-bam
Bada-bam-bam-bam-bam
Bada-bam-bam-bam-bam
Bada-ba
It's not that complicated, no matter what they say
I'll never meet another you
It's not that difficult to get my head around
I'll never meet another you

Gonna try to do this every other day or so to start a new thing. Shuffling my 74 hour playlist of All Hits and showing y'all some of what I got
I'm gonna give today's rotation a 8/10, it's really hard rock and nu metal heavy, but a good variety
The standout song from this grouping is Ordinary Day by Great Big Sea. It's a wonderful song, boosts my mood every time, and it's a song I'm allowed to play on aux! Give it a listen!
I'll see you next time on this new bit. Peace
