thanks to Rodney Atkins for this one… I got the lyrics from site I found through google. So don’t yell at me if they’re wrong.
I danced in my car to this on the way home from my agency job interview today. I sat in stand still traffic for way longer than I liked, thanking all that is good that I felt ok and that the biggest problem was how bad I had to pee. (Thank you IBS gods, thank you for 45 minutes of pure belly calm!) I watched 12 police motorcycles and a cruiser go past (No lie! 12! I counted them as they wiped by me while I stared at them longingly!). But apparently the road swallowed them whole because I never passed an accident, never say the cops again, but suddenly was going 70 mph again. hmmmm….. But anyway, back to the song, dancing to it in the car was the highlight of my day… Especially since I had such a bad attack of D and neasea this morning that I had to stay home from work and was afraid I wasn’t going to be able to go to my interviewy thing this afternoon (more on that and how I hate having to be at work at 6:30 later….)
So anyway, here’s my song of celebration for today!
Well you know those times
When you feel like there’s a sign there on your back
Says I don’t mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You’d think they can’t get worse than that
And then they do You step off the straight and narrow
And you don’t know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you
That’s when you learn the truth
If you’re going through hell
Keep on going, don’t slow down
If you’re scared, don’t show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you’re there
Well I been deep down in that darkness
I been down to my last match
Felt a hundred different demons
Breathing fire down my back
And I knew that if I stumbled
I’d fall right into the trap that they were laying, yeah
But the good news
Is there’s angels everywhere out on the street
Holding out a hand to pull you back up on your feet
The one’s that you’ve been dragging for so long
You’re on your knees
You might as well be praying
Guess what I’m saying
If your going through hell
Keep on going, don’t slow down
If you’re scared don’t show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you’re there
Excuse me now while I go dance around my living room…
