   "The strap that holds the cart in rein   
   Has been let loose by wearing thin   
   By wearing thin, by biting through   
   The shift in power leans to you   
      
      
      
   And the cart is on a wheel   
   And the wheel is on a hill   
   And the hill is shifting sand   
   And inside these laws we stand.”   
      
   Ferron -- The Cart   
      
   And sometimes I substitute “dance” for “stand”.   
      
   And it is funny, I recently posted those lyrics in another   
   thread but cannot find that post on http://groups.google.com   
   so maybe somebody other than me deleted it.
