Cusco Selections
Some of the early years of bumper music played on the show
is from the New Age group called Cusco. They have several CD's and the show
plays many selections from all of them. We've listed them here and
have links to our Amazon music store to order them if you'd like.
Here is a MIDI
version of Montezuma from the Latest Cusco CD.
Song Lyrics
One of Art Bell's favorite songs was Highwayman.
Performed by The Highway Men (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny
Cash, Kris Kristofferson).
You can listen to
the song with Real-Audio. Here is a
MIDI file of the
song. Thanks to Dan Mattingly, here are the lyrics:
Highwayman
Written By Jimmy Webb I was a highwayman Along the coach roads i did ride With sword and pistol by my side Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade, Many a soldier shed his life's blood on my blade The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five But i am still alive
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide With the sea i did abide I sailed a schooner 'round the horn to mexico I went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow And when the yards broke off, They said that i got killed But i am living still
I was a dam builder Across the river deep and wide Where steel and water did collide A place called boulder on the wild colorado I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound But i am still around I'll always be around and around and around...
I'll fly a starship 'Cross the universe divide And when i reach the other side, I'll find a place to rest my spirit if i can Perhaps i may become a highwayman again Or i may simply be a single drop of rain But i will remain And i'll be back again and again and again...
Highwayman Parody
Written By Derrel Dearing
FIRST VOICE
I'm a talk show host, on the airwaves, I do ride. I got my wife right by my side. I talk about some things, when no one else will talk. I not only tallk the talk, but I can walk the walk. And when you see my show, you can only try. Try to decide!
SECOND VOICE
I'm a pilot, on forbidden air I ride. I see a jet right by my side. Oh no,I see a cannon, it might shoot me down. What will they do to me, when I touch the ground? Maybe America will finally see the light, we all must unite. To overcome this fight. (this fight,this fight)
THIRD VOICE
I'm an employee, of the base down by the lake. Except I made just one mistake. I thought the people of the world should really know. That if disaster struck, where they need to go. Yet, then the MiB's bumped the satellite. This is how they fight, they knew that I was right. (was right,was
right)
FIRST VOICE(again)
Hello,it's me again. Do you see a pattern here? Do we have a need to fear? For I myself..... Have seen two UFO's. Some claim they don't exist, so the story goes. Yet when the facts are told, they can't deceive us all. COME ON GIVE ME A CALL, WE'LL BREAK DOWN THAT WALL! THAT WALL,THAT WALL!

Y WORRY 'BOUT Y2K
by The Dana Ray Band
Why worry 'bout Y2K,
it won't make a bit of difference anyway
They say the world's gonna stop,
buddy that'll be the day
When the chips cache in on New Year's Day
What's gonna happen, no one knows for sure
The only thing for certain is there ain't no cure
Stocks could drop wildly and elevators too
We'll be cavemen again when it all comes unglued
The government's trying to sweep it under the rug
but there's no magic spray for the millennium bug
We've created a monster, it's about to break free
There's nothing quite as scary as technology
Why worry 'bout Y2K
It won't make a bit of difference anyway
Some genius wasn't thinking, now we've all got to pay
When the chips go stale on New Year's Day
The Egyptians had a good thng for a while
That big pyramid would make any Pharoah smile
They had flying cars and houses, weren't slaves to gravity
Til their chips ran out on 2000 b.c.
Chaos won't be just a theory anymore
Computers have been waiting to even up the score
Just like the Tower of Babel when communications die
So pucker up, bend over and kiss it all goodbye
Why worry 'bout Y2K
There's nothing you can do about it anyway
You won't find me on an airplane, I think it's safe to say
We're going down with our chips on New Year's Day
So why worry 'bout Y2K
We could all lose a pound or two anyway
I'll be running for the hills, don't be standing in my way
Such a party in the streets on New Year's Day
Won't seem like Kansas anymore on New Year's Day
When it all fades to black on New Year's Day
