Hmm.. =)

(8) Colin Hay - Beautiful World (8)

My my my, It’s a beautiful world
I like swimming in the sea
I like to go out beyond the white breakers
Where a man can still be free,
Or a woman if you are one
I like swimming in the sea

My my my, It’s a beautiful world
I like drinking Irish Tea
With a little bit of lap sang souchong
I like making my own Tea

My my my, It’s a beautiful world
I like driving in my car
Roll the top down,
Sometimes I travel quite far
Drive to the ocean
Stare up at the stars

All around is anger, automatic guns
Death in large numbers, no respect for woman, or our little ones
I tried talking to Jesus, but he just put me on hold
Said he’d been swamped by calls this week
And He could not shake his cold

And still this emptiness persists
Perhaps this is as good as it gets
When you’ve given up the drink and those nasty cigarettes
Now I leave the party early at least with no regrets
I watch the sun as it comes up I watch it as it sets
Yeah this is as good as it gets

My my my, It’s a beautiful world
I like sleeping with Marie
She is one sexy girl full of mystery
She says she doesn’t love me, but she likes my company
For now that’s good enough for me

When you hear the acoustic twang'ing & this doods voice.. the song's even better! =)

Im prolly going to make my own version soon enough.. I see the lyrics flexible enough! But then again.. I always see lyrics as malleable cos we cannot get enough laughs in a day.. so inshaAllah.. soon enough! =p

Hmm.. I cant but help get back to my previous post.. in the song.. he uses the line.. "..thats as good as it gets!?" ..thats what I meant.. settling happily!

When was the last time you didnt get what you wanted.. but without complaining to mommy & daddy or bitching with a friend.. you happily settled? & I'm talking about happily.. you know.. no regrets.. no hollow smiles.. no crying late at night.. =p.. just.. satisfied.. or REALLY satisfied..

Its hard to find that being human.. but if you do muster up the character to do so.. you gain a lot.. emotionally.. mentally.. & it shows on ya as an individual fighting this battle that is life.. "battle that is life".. cliche innit? =D ..but still.. YOU GET MY POINT! which is my main objective.. hate ta lose ya after you've once again.. read LOADS of text! =)

Anyway.. gta get back to whatever I wasnt doing.. you take care of yourself.. with the way things rolling, Im prolly gna be back real soon!

Salams + tc..! =D
