“

You were right
Modern girls always have to go
Right on time
Old-fashioned men always want a mistress
You were right
Modern girls always get their way
I was wrong
Modern men dream of what they can’t say
That’s alright
(That’s alright)
I don’t belong

I don’t belong
Why you sitting over there?
Why you gotta say it
If you know it’s sounding wrong
Says that he’ll apologise
And it won’t take too long
Always thinking about yourself
You don’t wanna trust nobody else
Time
There’s a few things
That are gonna have to change
I’m your son
Everyone has the same opinion
Won’t you please
Your time is almost over
Don’t be mean
We won’t get the chance to do this over

That’s alright
(That’s alright)
I don’t belong
I don’t belong

Why you sitting over there?
I don’t want the imprint of your key on my nose
We don’t have to tell no one
Cause no one wants to know
Always thinking about yourself
You don’t have no happiness at home

Oh yes we’re falling down
Oh yes we’re falling down
Oh yes we’re falling down
Oh yes we’re falling down

You don’t love me
Always thinking about yourself
I am an animal
Always thinking about yourself
I am not practical
Always thinking about yourself
Was I?
Was I?

“Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me.”

“

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
One magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
“The greatest thing you’ll ever learn Is just to love and be loved in return”

“The greatest thing you’ll ever learn Is just to love and be loved in return”

”
—Nature Boy - Nat King Cole

(But after research found that it was originally done by eden ahbez, the original hippie!)

Conversations with my mother....
  • Me: I only woke up this morning because I was hungry and had been dreaming about a fantastic feast of which I sadly did not find in the pantry.
  • Mum: You had a food dream? I never have food dreams
  • Me: Yeah I usually don't, it's very rare.... however the other day I dreamt I went to somebody's house and stole all the guava's out of their trees and ran away because I didn't want to get in trouble
  • Mum: Usually my dreams are a little more metaphorical and deep than that.
  • Me: Oh sometime last week I also dreamt about drinking from a coconut.
  • Mum: HAHA so innocent! Usually I'm fixing the world's problems...well my problems but they are definitely not as.... creative
  • Me: I'm not innocent! But I just remembered do you want to join my croquet club? I'm thinking of bringing back some class to the area.
  • Mum: You really are innocent...
  • Me: No I'm not! Croquet is a hardcore sport that is extremely violent if given the chance. I'd be putting my life on the line to play that sport!
  • Mum: WOW how is it that you think of these things?

Mr Sandman The Chordettes

Mr Sandman- The Chordettes

My favourite song!

I must admit as I child I think it was probably due to the fact that it repeated the word bum often…. luckily now I am “more” mature and I can appreciate not only the repetition of “bum” but the awesome harmonies by the Chordettes as well.
