Big Fat Stinking Steaming Pile of Update
Wow a year goes by fast. So much can happen in a year, and has happened that never I thought would happen. First and biggest thing – Monica and I are splitting up.
It was going smoothly the first week after she left. Then shit hit the fan, and it's been difficult ever since. Not sure how much I should be talking about this stuff, so I might not for a while. Until the end of October.
I don’t think I’ve ever posted lyrics for an entire song. I think it’s lame when people do that. But this time, I think every line is fitting on how the divorce is going. God, that’s an ugly word. I’d rather just say “splitting up” or something. I especially like the 2 lines I bolded.
Amsterdam by Guster
I threw away your greatest hits
You left them here the day you split
Your bass guitar and Shagg's CD
Well they don't mean that much to me right now
I'm going through your things
These days, I'm changing all my strings
Chorus 1:
I'm gonna write you a letter
I'm gonna write you a book
I wanna see your reaction
I wanna see how it looks
Chorus 2:
From way up on your cloud
Where you've been hiding out
Are you getting somewhere?
Or did you get lost in Amsterdam?
You won't get too far from me
believing everything you read
You're wasted in the great unknown and I am finally ready to dispose of all your vintage clothes
Your drugs and every secret code
Chorus 1:
I'm gonna write you a letter
I'm gonna write you a book
I wanna see your reaction
I wanna see how it looks
Chorus 2:
From way up on your cloud
Where you've been hiding out
Are you getting somewhere?
Or did you get lost in Amsterdam?
From your red balloon you were a super high tech jet fighter
Floating over planet earth
Come back down here, I'll show you where it hurts
Take this bitter pill
Is it easy to swallow?
Chorus 1:
I'm gonna write you a letter
I'm gonna write you a book
I wanna see your reaction
I wanna see how it looks
From way up on your cloud
You're never coming down
Are you getting somewhere?
Or did you get lost in Amsterdam?
