Crowing it Up
Hello Kiddies,
It's been real quietr here and that is usualythe first sign that something is amiss. Yes, things here in the HSB are going less than stellar, but I am muddling through. It's not the life-crushing boulder of depression, it's more like a never ending pelting of pebbles that just stops long enough to breathe a sigh of relief before it starts up again. There have been some good moments during the malaise and that I'm extremely thankful for. There are many of my friends and compatriots who have it far worese off than I. That said, here's a little number that my cynical side likes to sing, and it actually inspired this user icon, which I reserve for most down/depressed posts. Anyone who's feeling it can sing along. My own crows certainly keep crowing about, but I know it's only a matter of time before I get down off this here pole.
You Can't Win by Charlie Smalls
As performed by Michael Jackson
(from "The Wiz")
You can't win
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
People keep sayin'
Things are gonna change
But they look just like
You're stayin' the same
You get in
way over your head
And you only got yourself to blame
You can't win Chile
(You can't win Chile)
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win
The world keeps movin'
And you're standin' far behind
People keep sayin'
Things'll get better
(Just to ease your state of mind)
(So you lean back, and you smoke that smoke)
(And you drink your glass of wine)
So you can't win, Chile
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win, you can't win no way
If your story stays the same
(You ain't winnin'),
No, no,
(But it's nice to see you)
(I'm awfully glad you came)
(Better cool it 'cause
It ain't about losin')
And the world has got no shame
You can't win, Chile
You can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You can't win
You can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be
(You'll be spendin'),
No, no
(Your little bit of money)
While someone else rides for free
(Learn your lesson), ooh,
(Refuel your mind)
(Before some turkey blows out your flame)
You can't win, Chile. No!
You can't win
You can't win, Chile. No!
You can't win
You can't win, Chile. No!
You can't win
You can't win, Chile. No!
You can't win
You can't win, Chile
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out (wooh!) of the game
No, no...

Oh incidentally it's still Question Month. Give me a few good ones to shake the writer's block.
