My headline on my Facebook profile pretty much sums up my life: "I live my life in song lyrics." I don't know how it got to be like that, but I feel like I have a soundtrack playing through my head all the time. Sometimes its pretty comical - how many situations can you think of where a song exists that describes the mood or the situation to a T? Example: You're running in your first 5k race and you're thinking..."it's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight, rising UP to the challenge of our rivals..." Oh yeah, you'll be singing that one all day. Or maybe you were thinking "And I can't fight this FEELING anymore...I've forgotten what I started fighting fooooooor..." Yes, those are the obvious ones. Mine are more random. Like this morning, for instance. I'm feeding my son his breakfast and he's having peaches. And immediately I start singing this ridiculous song from the 90s by the Presidents of the USA.
Moving to the country, I'm gonna eat alot of peaches
Moving TO the country, I'm gonna eat me alot of peaches
Moving to the country, I'm gonna eat alot of peaches
Moving to the country, I'm gonna eat alot of peaches
Peaches come from a can, they were put there by a man in a factory dooooownnnnntooown
If I had my little way, I'd eat peaches every day
Sun soakin bulges in the shade...
Yes, it's catchy. Yes, it's borderline obnoxious. But I'm being honest when I say that EVERY TIME I feed my son peaches, this runs through my head. Seriously. I can't stop it.
