POETICALLY LICENSED

PARAMORE ANGST ("Aint it Fun")

No offense tho

to such an inspirational new punk wave band

But

Hmmm...

How and where to draw the line?

Between deviant and just plain crazy

Not to mention I heard their latest chart hit

And I'm SOOO distraught because

Because it reminds me so much

Of who I am...really

Alone

Lost

Confused

And yet,

Dependent on others and their well -being and safety

To the point when

It is no more

Ahhh Paramore...

What am I gonna do

When your song finally gets surgically removed my brain

And tens of thousands of people soon realize

The world is not all fun and games

Ahhhh ain't it fun then,

Being an asshole

Even when you don't mean to

Praying, and/or even preying on the lives of others

Even when you don't mean any harm to them

Ignoring past mistakes,

No matter how long it takes

To move on

Let me tell you after I heard your "Radio-Friendly" bubblegum gospel of truth

It hit me!

Like a switch went on inside

Like I've been living a lie

That my momma was right all along

And that its time to stop worrying about what's gonna happen

And grow up...and be a man...

Ok a woman

And move on from the past and what?

Prepare for another horrid threat

Another death defying excuse

From a hurricane

From Childbirth

From Ebola

To be like you

Oh no

Apparently life doesn't work like that

Or so you've sang

Now when the shit hits the fan, so to speak

You'll surely be singing a different tune

For it's time to leave the past behind

To take in this new form of whatever it is reality is throwing at us

And intercept it...realized it happened to us and move on

Like One in a million chances that apocolypse is near

And no one will realize

Including me

For we've been trying to have fun
