The Friday Shuffle

Five random songs from my iPod.

1. Survival Car - Fountains of Wayne, Fountains of Wayne
Don't you wanna ride in my Survival car? We can take the long way home.

2. Brightest - Copeland, Beneath Medicine Tree
If you find yourself here on my side of town I'd pray that you'd come to my door and talk to me like you don't know what we ever fought about, 'cause I don't remember anymore. I just know that she warms my heart and knows what all my imperfections are. And she said that I was the brightest little firefly in her jar.

3. I'm Super - Big Gay Al, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut
I'm so sorry, Mr. Cripple, but I just can't feel too bad for you right now. Because I'm feeling so insanely super that even the fact that you can't walk can't bring me down...I'm super! No, nothing bugs me! Everything is super when you're...don't you think I look cute in this hat, these little pants, this matching tie that I got at Vogue?

4. Real Live Bleeding Fingers and Broken Guitar Strings - Lucinda Williams, World Without Tears
I climbed all the way inside your tragedy. I got behind the majesty of the different shapes in every note. The endless tapes of every word you wrote with real live bleeding fingers and broken guitar strings.

5. Life in a Nutshell - Barenaked Ladies, Rock Spectacle (Live)
I fell down with no one there to catch me from falling. Then she came round and only her tenderness stopped me from bawling my eyes out. I'm ok. And that's why her life, in a nutshell. No way would she ever want it to change me. It's not that easy 'cause my time is often decided for me. But I don't tend to worry about the things that other people say. And I'm learning that I wouldn't want it any other way. Call me crazy, but it really doesn't matter. All that matters to me is she.

...Big Gay Al says, do ask! Do tell!
