Yo, I'm back from Philly.
Well, Philly was interesting to say the least.
The main purpose in going was to attend my high school reunion. 20 years. Ouch. I do have to say that I enjoyed the time spent with those from my past. Some of those I didn't even remember and some I recognized in an instant. The awkward reintroductions seemed to loosen up after the spirits started to flow. Some had the spirits flowing full blast all night long.
It wouldn't surprise me if a video appeared on YouTube starring the Prom Queen as her hotel room, I believe, became the destination for quite a few attendees per her amorous advances. I refrained.
It's New Years Eve and I think that I've made a resolution in the past to not make resolutions. I don't recall though as that may be nestled into one of the grayer portions of my brain.
With all the religious fervor of the holidays lately I'm reminded of one of my treasured musical tidbits.
I'm not going to post the video just the lyrics.
Go ahead and sing along, you know you know the words.
Dear god,
Hope you got the letter,
And I pray you can make it better down here.
I dont mean a big reduction in the price of beer,
But all the people that you made in your image,
See them starving on their feet,
cause they dont get enough to eat
From god,
I cant believe in you.
Dear god,
Sorry to disturb you,
But I feel that I should be heard loud and clear.
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears,
And all the people that you made in your image,
See them fighting in the street,
cause they cant make opinions meet,
About god,
I cant believe in you.
Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!
Dear god,
Dont know if you noticed,
But your name is on a lot of quotes in this book.
Us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look,
And all the people that you made in your image,
Still believing that junk is true.
Well I know it aint and so do you,
Dear god,
I cant believe in,
I dont believe in,
I wont believe in heaven and hell.
No saints, no sinners,
No devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown.
Youre always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown.
Those lost at sea and never found,
And its the same the whole world round.
The hurt I see helps to compound,
That the father, son and holy ghost,
Is just somebodys unholy hoax,
And if youre up there youll perceive,
That my hearts here upon my sleeve.
If theres one thing I dont believe in...
Its you,
Dear god.
