Wintry Mix and "Why Pay Your Money?"
Why is it that it never snows or sleets or whatever when I actually want it to? The day before the ski trip it had to snow . . . Oh well, it is giving me an opportunity to post, which is something that I haven't done in a while. So, let's see. What's new around here . . . Well, apparently I have a crush on this college guy(that was for you, Elimelech). Oh, yeah, I'm in Region Band. Should be lots of fun. There's actually a somewhat funny story involving me being in Region, but I won't bore you guys with that. I stumbled across this song from a link on a blog that some of y'all all familiar with, the quaker blog. Though I have never heard this song, and am therefore not condoning it, the lyrics made me think alot. It is called, "Why Pay your Money?"
I made my money and I took it to the driving-fast man
I said I would like to be driving just as fast as I can
I need some speed and I need to be bad
I need to win respect that I never had
Why pay your money for what does not satisfy?
I took my new car and I drove it to the looking-good man
I said “please make me more attractive than the person I am”
He sold me some muscles and he shaved down my nose
Then got me fitted in some really neat clothes
Why pay your money for what does not satisfy?
Now I am driving, I’m finally arriving
Now I am looking really very good
Now I am wondering what else to be buying
I took what I had left and I gave it to the happiness man
I said I would like to be happy, as happy as I can
He said, “boy, why did you come to me last?”
Then he just smiled and he handed it back
And he said
“Why pay your money for what does not satisfy?”
Satisfy
