Okay, I admit today is slightly different than my usual Tuesday fare. The above is a playlist I created on YouTube. It is based on a question one of my Facebook friends asked…
Quick! What is your favorite cover song that you think is better than the original?
Now that has some controversy… after all it depends on the eye of the beholder mechanic. What is good for me may not be to you.
Still, I enjoy the covers on this playlist and I thought I would share it with you. What is your favorite cover song?
[Verse 1] Woke up late, car’s a mess Spilled some coffee on my dress Trying to pick out a song Drove too fast, missed a stop Somehow a Policeman saw How am I gonna pay for that?
[Pre-Chorus] I stayed up ’til 3 a.m last night Watching Netflix on my phone ’cause They cut off the power line Drank up the rest of the box wine Oh, I know it wasn’t smart And I say this every time [Chorus] I can’t adult today at all I wanna go right back to bed And pretend I’m not feeling well There’s nothing that I wanna say But ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I can’t adult today I can’t adult today
[Verse 2] Got to work, powered through Headache started around 2 ‘Cause I had to work through lunch Finally, I finished up Made it home and had enough But I found a dog chewed couch
[Pre-Chorus] I stayed up ’til 3 a.m last night Watching Netflix on my phone ’cause They cut off the power line Drank up the rest of the box wine Oh, I know it wasn’t smart And I say this every time
[Chorus] I can’t adult today at all I wanna go right back to bed And pretend I’m not feeling well There’s nothing that I wanna say But ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I can’t adult today [Bridge] Just another cup of coffee I can’t adult today Just a little bit more money I can’t adult today 10 alarms just to remind me I can’t adult today Tomorrow I will try again
[Chorus] I can’t adult today at all I wanna go right back to bed And pretend I’m not feeling well There’s nothing that I wanna say But ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I can’t adult today I can’t adult today I can’t adult today
My Two Cents- being sick sucks. Catching up on the work I should have done whilst sick sucks. I wanna go right back to bed…
I break the ice So they don’t see my size And I have to be nice Or I’ll be the next punchline
I’m just the best friend in Hollywood movies Who only exist to continue the story The girl gets the guy while I’m standing off-screen So I’ll wait for my cue to be comedic relief
Can’t be too loud Can’t be too busy If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me? Can’t be too proud Can’t think I’m pretty Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
I say I’m okay ‘Cause they wouldn’t care anyway And I could try to explain But my efforts in vain They can’t relate to how I’ve
Drawn out in Sharpie where I take the scissors If that’s what it took for me to look in the mirror I’ve done every diet to make me look thinner So why do I still feel so goddamn inferior?
Can’t be too loud And can’t be too busy If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me? Can’t be too proud and Can’t think I’m pretty Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
Life of the fat, funny friend Life of the fat, funny friend
It’s funny when I think a guy likes me And it’s funny when I’m the one who says, “Let’s go to eat” It’s funny when I’m asked to go out on Halloween Dresses and thigh highs, while I hide my body
Can’t be too loud And can’t be too busy If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna miss me?
Can’t be too loud And can’t be too busy If I don’t answer now, are they still gonna need me? Can’t be too proud and Can’t think I’m pretty Do they keep me around, so their flaws just seem silly?
Life of the fat, funny friend Life of the fat, funny friend Life of the fat, funny friend Life of the fat, funny friend
I’ve drawn out in Sharpie where I take the scissors
My Two Cents- I have been fat almost all my life. I was tiny before I hit puberty…but I hit puberty…I got fat. or so I was told.
I was two in the picture above.
And here I was ten. Through most of my teen years my mother had me on every fad diet there was. She was certain I would die before I was 30 by heart attack. So certain that she had me convinced.
My senior year of high school…I was 200 lbs….
I ended up 450 lbs and unable to move…but hey…I survived 30…
I am down to 270. I am still the same girl. the teen that didn’t understand what was wrong with me. The person who never felt like she looked good enough to be counted as cute, much less pretty.
Yeah, I am sure y’all know this one by now…But today it is simply because I am fighting an almost daily migraine. I am fighting mental health issues, hard, and I just don’t have any extra energy to suggest new web comics. The internet is so full of Wonderful comics, but I just don’t know what I have already recommended and don’t have the energy needed to pick a new one.
Instead I will recommend a neat content creator on TikTok. She sings Puns. She is a fun creator. I may alternate a bit and recommend some Tiktok creators in between some web comics. It sounds like it might be less stressful. Go laugh at Drew and her Puns.
Dreaming comes so easily ‘Cause it’s all that I’ve known True love is a fairy tale I’m damaged, so how would I know
I’m scared and I’m alone I’m ashamed And I need for you to know
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
Healing comes so painfully And it chills to the bone Will anyone get close to me? I’m damaged, as I’m sure you know
I’m scared and I’m alone I’m ashamed And I need for you to know
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
There’s mending for my soul An ending to this fear Forgiveness for a man who was stronger I was just a little girl, but I can’t go back
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away ‘Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
Can’t go back
I can’t go back I must go on
My Two Cents- I feel like the lyrics speak for me. Some days surviving is harder than others. Somedays the voices of the past are louder than they should be. I am looking at an MRI for the migraines on the 19th…The problem is I am petrified of closed in places. I was abused by someone I should have been able to trust. When I was 9 years old I finally got the courage up to tell him I would scream if he came near me again. He locked me in the trunk of his car. He said that I would die there and made me believe that He intended to kill me. Though I am nearly 40 years older than that scared little girl….I still can’t handle closed in spaces. So I am having serious issues with the upcoming test. The man who abused me killed himself a few years ago. The last time I saw him I was still a child. He is still powerful, and I am somehow powerless. Some things the mind refuses to accept. Logically, I am no longer able to be hurt by a dead man…but since when is the brain logical?
