you know what I’m talkin’ ’bout come on baby
we’re all sensitive people
with so much to give, understand me sugar

… snapped this morning at my daily weigh-in! My protein smoothie awaits, then on the 8K road again!
… Brand New Low …
When you grab a hold of me, tell me that I’ll never be set free
But I’m a parasite, creep and crawl I step into the night
Ain’t got no money to spend, I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I’m weak, won’t somebody get me off of this reef
… how highly they regard me! I mean, I’ve always known, ain’t no secret there … but lately, the adulation has been constant, non-stop … and it got me thinking, opening my eyes even more to how much everyone likes&respects me! Always going above and beyond/going the extra mile for me. And I came to the realization why (again – wasn’t no secret, but with so much of it recently, made me think ’bout it) … very simple really …
it’s not whatcha got, it’s a-what you give
it ain’t the life you choose, it’s the life you live
it’s only what you give, only what you give, only what you give
it’s not whatcha got, a-but the life you live
it’s the life you live
Spinning infinity boy
The wheel is spinning me
It’s never-ending never-ending
Same old story
What if I say I’m not like the others?
What if I say I’m not just another one of your plays?
You’re the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
In time or so I’m told
I’m just another soul for sale oh well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We’re temporary temporary
Same old story
I’m the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I’m the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I’m what’s left I’m what’s right
I’m the enemy
I’m the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
What if I say I’m not like the others?
Keep you in the dark
What if I say I’m not just another one of your plays?
You know they all pretend
You’re the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?
So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Not only am I NOT dreading it, I’m embracing it!! It’s to the point where recently I’m taunting/daring/wanting anyone & everyone to ask me my age … go ahead, lol! I haven’t felt as healthy in my life, I feel vibrant & strong, got plenty spring chicken zip in my step and not a single person I know who turned fifty could say the same, nor did they indicate being excited ’bout it either … in fact, I’ll match up my 50 year-old Ken-Ken playing, 8K running, BBQ-ing/grilling, Vitamixing skinny-ass against the lot of you!! And yes, I’m being premature by a month with my 50giddiness … like I said, I have zip, lol!
My official 50 year-old pics (don’t know what it is, it’s not that I’m unhappy with the pics, I’m not – just can seem to get the lighting to co-operate, and I’m not happy about that, despite my efforts trying to correct it) … and don’t give me grief I’m not quite there yet, it’s MY blog … indulge me … lemme enjoy each and every day getting there … one more month baby, one month!!
… as for my present: (come back strong with) 50 belly dancers … can’t stop addicted to the shindig …
This is what you’ll get
This is what you’ll get
This is what you’ll get when you mess with us
I’ve given all I can, it’s not enough, I’ve given all I can
For a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself
Phew, for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it
If you want to destroy my sweater
Hold this thread as I walk away
Watch me unravel, I’ll soon be naked
Lying on the floor (lying on the floor)
I’ve come undone
conductor don’t like it says you’re wastin’ your time
but everybody wants some, I want some too
everybody wants some, how about you?
when you seek me you destroy me
rape my mind and smell the poppies
born and bloodied every single time
… my newly planted grass asshole!! It’s mean and evil, wicked and nasty … Oh, and I know who you are, and that’s two days in a row, lucky-for-your-two-saving-steps-lazy-ass… I ain’t around that time of day … but I swear, I catch ya in the act … I’m puttin’ yer nuts in my vice … if ya have a set I mean!!
By this time tomorrow, I won’t love you like today
By this time tomorrow, I’ll fear the break of day
By this time tomorrow, I’ll have pissed away my pay
By this time tomorrow, I’ll be lonely yet again
Don’t you leave me, like you did before
I know I hurt you, when I said I needed more
By this time tomorrow, you’ll aim to miss your foot
By this time tomorrow, I’ll barely even look
By this time tomorrow, you’ll do what you been told
By this time tomorrow, you’ll get back to the cold
I’m gonna leave you, like I did before
You know you hurt me, when you said you needed more
By this time tomorrow, I’ll add wrinkles to my face
By this time tomorrow, I’ll only have a taste
By this time tomorrow, I’ll be nearly falling down
By this time tomorrow, you’ll be trying to dodge the ground
Don’t you leave me, like you did before
I know I hurt you, when I said I needed more
By this time tomorrow, I’ll be taking pills for pain
By this time tomorrow, I swear I’ll be okay
By this time tomorrow, you’ll bend me ’till I fold
By this time tomorrow, I’ll say goodbye cruel world
Don’t you leave me, like you did before
I know I hurt you, when I said I needed more
… hold on to the feelin’ … GREAT song, heard it this morning on my three minute drive to the gym, turned it LOUD … talk about getting pumped for my workout or what! And btw, that’s when Journey was STILL Journey … not some bullshit Steve Perry-less incarnation being passed off as Journey!
Some will win
Some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
