The other night Hoody was rehearsing and we were playing "Badadum" - one of my drummer John's favorites. I was reminded that at the best of times, lyrics are a pipeline to our (just barely) unconsciousness. This song was a clear reminder of that.
Badadum (Lyrics)
Sitting back with my home-school honey
Thinking back now don't you think it's funny?
All the times we never needed money
Getting richer but I feel much poorer
Sitting back in a nook by the river
Hear a sound now don't it make you shiver?
For a pound you know she will deliver
Love or leave her is your only choice now
It's as easy as believing that it's true
Look around now all your see is you
In the end, all your really knew
Getting older but you ain't no wiser
Maybe I will when I'm older
Maybe I will but it's not time now
Maybe I will when I'm older...
No
Maybe I will when I'm older
Maybe I will but it's not time now
Maybe I will when I'm older...
No
Maybe I will when I'm older
Maybe I will but it's not time now
Maybe I will when I'm older...
No
