What should ya do when you get the blues?
Well, a 'friend' of mine sings it perfectly well.
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock 'n' roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
A Little shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples' feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
Well, I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on , get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock 'n' roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took a shoeshine rag and he held it tight
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said you're a mighty little boy to be-a workin' that way
He said I like it with a big wide grin
Kept on a poppin' and he said again
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe
Does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues

Meanwhile, I'm not feeling very rhythmic. My head has one of those depression clouds. SUper fun =\
And it's Friday, so what the fuck this is about? Have no idea, but it kinda started last night when Comcast decided to continue the ass-raping by not allowing me to watch a few of the HBO channels but more importantly none of the NCAA tourney. Fuckin' assholes.
I'd go off more but I used a ton of energy on it last night. Not that the lady on the other end gave a shit (per usual).
Anyway, Ninja Turtles opens this weekend so hopefully "someone" will go with me. Also my sister is in town on Saturday, while my parents fly out to her coast and hang in Palm Springs.
Well, not sure if I'm gonna lift today. I'm not sore, but my muscles are difinately not psyched after the long swim I gave em yesterday. Might just be a 'grow' day.
Poker tonight. For more details on how you can play and get a tax right off doing it, see the previous post or the blinking light on the right side of this bloggy.
Later gators. Off to kick the shit outta little kids. (not really, but what a foul mood I'm in)
