A cyborg seeks Sara O'Connor,
determined to make her a goner;
but the borg's terminated
and the seed germinated
who will be the world's savior mañana.

No idea, Marion.

The little chap’s looking for gold;
He’s hungry and thirsty and cold.
Though they’re hardly delicious,
Shoes may be nutritious,
But where can he get them re-soled?

Brian, that's Chaplin, but I don't know which one.

I guess mine are too low-brow for you guys!

Isn't that Terminator? I didn't watch it, but it's pretty difficult to avoid! I love the Bostonian rhyme-scheme!

A blonde, a brunette, flaming June,
A sheriff, ex-jailbirds, a tune.
The minutes tick past
Till a train comes at last
And it ends in a showdown at noon.

As foppish and spoiled as you please,
the señor lives a life full of ease,
but at night, what a switch,
when he robs from the rich
for the poor, all the while making Z's.

A boy tries to fill up a gap
in his life and flee poverty's trap,
by showing the 'hood
that he's good, really good,
and proving that white guys can rap.
