just perfect

it's only barely Monday morning, 5 past midnight... listening to cheesy music on the radio... currently playing Africa by Toto and for the first time in years i actually enjoyed listening to it... bad memories that song... but like some ass i dated sometime ago suggested... make new memories... good Lord I think i have Sunday evening blues on this early Monday morning... hehe... woe and gnashing of teeth... i think the thought of my kids starting school "today" is getting to me... argh... lunch boxes and stinky socks starting all over again in about 6 hours... such delightful things to look forward to... so happy going back to school boys, you better work like there's no tomorrow and make mama proud... pretty please?! otherwise i'll sit you down, tie you to a chair and sing the lyrics of Toto's song to you in my worst possible voice... enough to give you nightmares for weeks... now go get 'em tiger...






I hear the drums echoing tonight

But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation

Shes coming in 12:30 flight

The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

I stopped an old man along the way

Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies

He turned to me as if to say, hurry boy, its waiting there for you



Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night

As they grow restless longing for some solitary company

I know that I must do whats right

Sure as kilimanjaro rises like olympus above the serengeti

I seek to cure whats deep inside, frightened of this thing that Ive become



hurry boy, shes waiting there for you

Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in africa


Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
