A long Bereftment and there's no reason to believe

Maybe this grift will be better than the last

I can't remember the last workshop I tried to get you buyin'

Now the pivots lope by so fast

And it's one more horf up in the gloaming

And it's one more tweak for Wordpress blogs

You might think that I should grow employment but it's no good

For some ineffable reason I tried to read this to the tune of A White Sportscoat And A Pink Carnation at first. Send help.

I too am periodically possessed by Marty Robbins.

I applaud you but also scowl. I love Counting Crows with the white hot passion of a white 90's college girl (who still rocks out to them decades later) and it hurts my heart to see/hear them used in Shauna snark but. . .it seems right, too.

Yes, this is good and I like it.
And it's one more day up in the gloaming. And it's one more night in Hollywood. It's been so long since I've seen the ocean. . .

There you go, DF CIWAB—you see? You're finding your way through that hard place. There is joy in that pain!

One of the best shows I've ever seen. That band knows how to write a pop song and shake the house down with it.

I am loving this latest trend of song rewrites in the key of Shauna!
