I have a complaint! A spectacularly huge, horrid, horrendous complain! It’s stuck! LOL, I have a song plastered to the front of my brain. It’s like taffy suctioned to the roof of my mouth, only I can’t stick my fingers in and scrape it away. AHHHHH! It’s wedged in there between Hanson and Limp Bizkit; again I say AHHHHH! It’s not "MMMBop" "Rollin’" around up there, but it’s still a part of "My Generation". ;)
Who needs sleep!?! (Me, Me, Me, I do, I do, I do!) Well, you’re never gonna get it!
DAMN IT!
The following lyrics have been rattling around up there for a week now.
“Who needs sleep?
(Well you’re never gonna get it)
Who needs sleep?
(Tell me what’s that for)
Who needs sleep?
Be happy with what you’re getting
There’s a guy who’s been awake
Since the second world war”
Who needs sleep? - Track 10 - Stunt - Barenaked Ladies
And, yet again I say AHHHHH!
Every morning I sit up in bed; touch my toes to the floor, hands stretch in the air, the yawn trying to blow away my sleepy cobwebs. I enjoy the lovely view out my window and for a moment I’m calm, relaxed, peaceful… then it pops into my head like a personal mantra… (Cringe)
“Wow I slept really well, but I’m still a little tired.”
“But, who needs sleep…” says the tiny circus clown with mismatched eyes, in the center arena of my mind.
And thus it begins again… he follows me into the shower waging his pudgy finger to the beat. He's dancing in the mirror while I'm brushing my teeth and my hair, while I'm applying my makeup. He lingers in corners or on shelves while I’m choosing the day’s outfit. Who needs sleep… when I'm losing my damn mind?
Solution: Time to break the cycle!! Time for new music, Time to change the routine; teeth first and shower second! I refuse to be bought low with yet another morning of taunting questions and perky music quipping in the background. I’M TAKIN MY MIND BACK! (AND I'm given that mini clown the bird as I leave the tent!)
Going early to bed, means I'm early to rise,
And Tomorrow I’ll see the world through rose-colored eyes!
Do you remember listening to this album all the time when we were younger?! hahah We always said that the 'alcohol' song reminded us of Barry.
