This is the part where I post more song lyrics and you nod politely.

See? It works out for everyone that way. News: I love The Colbert Report. I recommend that if you can, you should attend the Rally to Restore Sanity or the Rally to Keep Fear Alive because that would be awesome and Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert are hilarious. I mean really, the Merch to Keep Fear Alive makes me laugh so so so much and loudly. Ken Buck is the love child of Rush Limbaugh and the devil. Just saying. He's a hardcore crazyface. It's cold out, but the weather people LIE. LIIIIIIIIIIES I shout at the TV. LIES I SAY. It rained half a drop for 8 seconds today and it was supposed to rain. Really rain. Like lightning and clouds and fluids. Not just wind and then a sneeze of rain and then nothing. Pfft. Suck it, weather people. You make me want to punch a bird.

Anyhoo, to zee saahng! It's called Sex and Reruns by Matt Duke and it's such a good song. I've listened to it at least 50 times in the past two days. It's funny because you think I'm kidding. No. Not at all. I have to thank The Lady (she knows who she is) because without her I wouldn't know this song.

Do you shake through the night?
Tucked under the covers tight-ly
There's monsters in the shadows and zombies in the street lights

And the sounds from the street
Like some terrible cacophony
It cuts through the walls of your bedroom and haunts your dreams

But don't you cry
I'll sing you a lullaby
But by and by it's wasted time
Take a spoonful to settle your mind
And I wish you goodnight

Dark out all your demons with white noise, pills, and Jesus
And when I get down, I just turn off the lights
I find friends and lovers, some online sex and reruns
And when I get down, I just turn off the light the light the lights

When you're lost and confused
But you're too proud to face the truth
Spend up all your money on a band-aide to cover the wound

When you suck at life
But you're much too scared to die
Embrace the sweet indifference with your brothers and we'll march in time time time

But why so stressed?
Do you feel like the world's a mess?
Well grab what you can from the medicine chest and all your worst fears suppress
And just turn off the lights

Dark out all your demons with white noise, pills, and Jesus
And when I get down, I just turn off the lights
I find friends and lovers, some online sex and reruns
And when I get down, I just turn off the light the light the lights

Dark out all your demons with white noise, pills, and Jesus
And when I get down, I just turn off the lights
I make friends and lovers, some online sex and reruns
And when I get down, I just turn off the light the light the lights
Turn off the light the light the light

I OBVIOUSLY don't condone substance abuse, but it otherwise has a pretty positive message. I think, anyways. I really like the beat and the subdued sound to it, even though it really is a sort of upbeat song. Lots of good drum and guitar and such. It came out in 2008 but no one has made it famous YET. Listen to it, you'll lurve it.

And I'm on fall break so hopefully I'll get some stuff done. Hopefully.
