I gotta stop listening to music that I KNOW is gonna depress me. I think my iTunes is conspiring against me.
"Reasons Why" by Nickel Creek Where am I today? I wish that I knew 'Cause looking around there's no sign of you I don't remember one jump or one leap Just quiet steps away from your lead
I'm holding my heart out but clutching it too Feeling this short of a love that we once knew I'm calling this home when it's not even close Playing the role with nerves left exposed
Standing on a darkened stage, stumbling through the lines Others have excuses, but I have my reasons why
We get distracted by dreams of our own But nobody's happy while feeling alone And knowing how hard it hurts when we fall We lean another ladder against the wrong wall
And climb high to the highest rung, to shake fists at the sky While others have excuses, I have my reasons why

3. I'd Like To Suggest "CAR WASH" (Rose Royce) |
|
Ooh ooh You might not ever get rich But let me tell ya it's better than diggin' a ditch There ain't no tellin' who you might meet A movie star or maybe even an Indian chief
(Workin') At the car wash Workin' at the car wash, girl Come on and sing it with me (Car wash) Sing it with the feelin' ya'all (Car wash, girl)
Ooh!
Some of the work gets kinda hard This ain't no place to be if you planned on bein' a star Let me tell you it's always cool And the boss don't mind sometimes if you act the fool
At the car wash Whoa whoa whoa whoa Talkin' about the car wash, girl Come on, ya'all and sing it for me (Car wash) Oooh oooh oooh (Car wash, girl)
(Work and work) Well, those cars never seem to stop coming (Work and work) Keep those rags and machines humming (Work and work) My fingers to the bone (Work) Can't wait till it's time to go home (?)
(Hey, get your car washed today) Fill up and you don't have to pay Come on and give us a play (Do the wash, right away)
(The car wash) Talkin' 'bout the car wash Car wash, girl Come on, ya'all, let's sing it with me (Car wash) Sing it with feelin', ya'all (Car wash, girl)
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Car wash) Never seem to stop comin' What'd I say Keep those rags and machines hummin' (Car wash) Let me tell you, it's always cool . . .

5. How Can Anyone NOT Smile And Sway And Foot-tap When They Hear Car Wash?? |
|
It's just one of those songs that everyone makes fun of... but secretly everyone enjoys it.
I know I SURE DO!!

8. Try "Don't fear the Reaper", Blue Oyster Cult... |
|
It won't make you feel any better, but you can listen to "Reasons Why" and think it's a song on the joys of life... :evilgrin:
